I had originally saved the project I was working on to my desktop, but now I have moved the folder to another location on my hard drive (didn't want it on my desktop anymore).
But since I've moved it I get the message:
The working directory does not exist: 'C:old folder locationResources'.
Is there a simple way to update my project to the new folder location?
I have been using the 'findby' method for sometime, but now it suddenly is failing me on a new data source I have added to the project. I have the data source bound to a form and I am trying to find values based upon a primary key. This evades me, I am able to look up rows using 'findby' with other tables, but not this one.

I have just converting my VB6 project to VB.NET 2008. I have set up start with Model. It start with Main() sub, in Main sub I have declare as below:
Dim frm as new Formpwd
frm.show()
In formpwd I have UserId, PWD as test box and Two command buttons. The system executes form_load code and then PWD and UserId_Gotfoucus handler and then closes the system. Why is not waiting to accept UserId and PWD?
I have developed a vb.net application which gets a folder as input with n number of .txt.When there are say 5 .txt files the application executes and produces the excel output.When there a n numpber of .txt files say 30, the application takes a long time and exits without producing the output.
View 29 RepliesI copied a project I wrote on my XP machine to my other computer with Windows 7 64-bit. When I run it through VS2008 it exits immediately. It does not run a single line of code. The exit code is 0. I need to post what else it says. But I did find a posting about this saying the path to the temp files may be wrong for it but he did not know how to change this. If I create a new peoject and put a command button on it, the program runs. So I was wondering if it is something like the temp files or something else. The machine runs a compiled .exe of the program from the XP machone when installed on the Windows 7 machine. So I do not think it is the program not being compatible.

I'm trying to emulate the possiblitys of what windows does to try and locate a find and I'm kind of stuck on 2. The current directory for the parent process. I'm guessing if you execute it from cmd.exe it would check c:windowssystem32 folder cause that would be the parent process and that is its folder, but if you double clicked, seems to set the working directory to the path where the exe is located.

I found the following example of how to print a root directory on the net
Code:
Sub Main()
Dim Current As String
Dim Root As String
Current = Directory.getCurrentDirectory()
Root = Directory.GetDirectoryRoot(Current)
Root = Directory.GetDirectoryRoot("")
Console.WriteLine("Current directory {0}", Current)
Console.WriteLine("Root directory {0}", Root)
End Sub
However it just causes the error "name directory not declared"
when you start a new projekt, vs2010 makes a new folder for the projekt. when i reach a certain point in my projekt i want to save that version of the projekt.
what i do is make a new folder and copy that projekt to it. projektfolder2 . when i start the projekt in the new folder the sln doesnt work anymore. the vbproj works then. and vs 2010 makes a new sln file one directory down of the old one between the other
projekt files.

I am working on a GUI for a simulation program. The simulation program is a single .exe which is driven by an input file (File.inp placed in the same directory). The Original.inp file functions as a template from which the form reads all the values into an array. Then it changes these values reflecting the changes done by the user in the form. After that it writes all the new values to File.inp. By pushing the "Run" button the Simulation.exe file is executed. The folder structure looks like this:
[Code]..
Ideally I would supply only the GUI, the user would select the working directory and then the GUI.exe would create an input folder and extract the Original.inp and Simulation.exe in the appropriate locations. So far I have only managed to include Original.inp and Simulation.exe as "EmbeddedResources" in my VB project and I have let my code create an input folder in the working directory chosen by the user.
how I can extract the .inp and .exe file into the correct directories? I've searched on google, tried File.WriteAllBytes and Filestream.WriteByte but did not get the desired results. The problem with File.WriteAllBytes was that I could not point to the embedded resource ("Simulation.exe is not a member of Resources" and with Filestream.WriteByte I got a 0 kb file.
I've got an application that has a bug right now, but we're unable to update the end-user to get the fix out. What a possible workaround would be is to change the working directory to the application's install directory, but from what I can tell, there's no way to do that outside of the program itself.

I want to allow my user to add urls to a database, much as a user might add file names. I have a form with a label, a textbox, and a browse button. I would like the browse button to load the user's default browser and then have the final url appear in the textbox when the browser closes. I have not been able to do that, but I have come close. I have not found a way to capture the url from an arbitray browser, so I instead load ie.exe and then capture the url with an OnQuit handler. That works (even verified by the debugger) but I am unable to get the url to appear in the textbox without actually clicking in the textbox once ie closes. I would like a suggestion as to how to avoid making my user click in the textbox and, if possible, to load the user's default browser and still capture the url. Here is my code for the Browse button (IE is defined at the class level as Dim WithEvents IE As SHDocVw.InternetExplorer):
theURL = ""
IE = New SHDocVw.InternetExplorer
AddHandler IE.OnQuit, AddressOf HandleIEQuit

It appears that my favorite thing in the world is tackling projects that are beyond my current knowledge and abilities. I have a little project that I am working on which is a simple image viewer stocked with (upon completion) your standard Load..., Next/Previous, Zoom In/Out, Actual Size, and Full Screen capabilities. However, I am running into a few snags:
(1) I've been able to get my "Load..." button to display a file dialog box, but I cannot seem to get a working filter (with which only image file types are allowed to be selected) in working order.
(2) I have a PictureBox object (entitled PictureBox1) that displays the image selected via the file dialog box, but it loads images in their full size (1:1/100% zoomed) state without scrollbars, etc. to allow me to navigate the loaded image. I would like to have it load the image, initially, to fit within the dimensions of PictureBox1 and from there be able to zoom in/out via my "Zoom In/Out" and "Actual Size" buttons and be able to scroll if the zoom level is beyond the dimensions of PictureBox1.
(3) It dawned on me that I haven't the faintest idea how to get my "Next/Previous" buttons to allow the user (me) to navigate, in succession, the images contained in the folder in which the currently loaded image is stored. [code]

View 4 RepliesIm working on a silverlight application where a user can create, edit, delete objects. The changes they make are placed in a queue which is processed every 4 minutes. When it is processed, the updates are sent over an async web method call to be saved in a sql database, one at a time. When the first update finishes, the next starts.Im having a problem when a user makes a change and then exits the browser app before the 4 minute timer has expired.Currently the changes are getting lost.Ive built on what the guy working on this before me has done, and explored the Dispose and Finalize methods, trying to start the update process when the factory is being shut down, but that isnt working due to the async nature of the web service calls. I get errors saying needed objects have already been disposed of.
View 1 RepliesI'm running a bunch of automated tasks in a thread I'm creating via the Thread class. So I'm not using a BackgroundWorker.
During parts of the automation, the thread may exit. This is normal. But when the thread completes, I need to finish up some additional tasks. I can anticipate all of the conditions in which the thread closes, but I'd rather not to do the final tasks at each point, as this will create a lot of redundant code.
So instead, I wanted to write an event that is triggered when the thread exits. I looked through the Thread class, but all I could find was the ThreadState property, which has a Stopped property. But, when I try to add a handler to that property, it doesn't allow me.
For some reason, the next code found on MSDN crashes or exits after 30 cycles or, in other words, after processing 30th Property, exits without explanation. As I said, I found it in MSDN

View 3 RepliesI'm designing a Windows Forms Application, and there is a dialog that should NOT exit when the enter key is pressed, instead it has to validate data first, in case enter was pressed after changing the text of a ComboBox. I've tried by telling it what to do on KeyPress event of the ComboBox if e is the Enter key:
[Code]...
But no success so far. When the Enter key is pressed, even with the ComboBox on focus, the whole dialog is closed, returning to the previous form. The validation is NOT done at all, and it has to be done before exiting. In fact, I don't even want to exit on the form's enter KeyPress, the only purpose of the enter key on the whole dialog is to validate the ComboBox (but only when in focus, for the sake of an intuitive UI). I've also tried appending the validation to the KeyPress event of the whole dialog's form, if the key is Enter. NO SUCCESS! It's like my code wasn't there at all.
