Folder Browser Dialog And UNC Paths?
Jun 22, 2010I'm writing an app where a user selects a folder on the network for a job to deposit output into.The person setting up the job will not necessarily be the same person who runs the job and that the job will not be ran on the same machine so I need to keep the path in UNC format. I can get the user to "see" the network when the FolderBrowserDialog runs by pointing the route folder at the desktop folder.
The issue is that if the network share is local even though the user has selected the folder through the network folders it returns the local path!! Which of course means that when the job is run on the other machine it can not find the folder specified.
E.g. The user on machine1 selects the network share \machine1jobsmyjob but the dialog returns C:work2010JobsClientjobsmyjob. machine2 then runs the job and looks for C:work2010JobsClientjobsmyjob and can not find it then throws an error.
As you can see from the above example I can't just replace c: with the local machine name as the share may not be in the root of the drive. I did think about parsing the text and changing it to \machine1c$work2010JobsClientjobsmyjob but this would mean I'd have to allow all the users to have admin access to our servers which is a non starter.if there is a way to switch off this behaviour in the dialog?
dim myDialog as new FolderBrowserDialog
With myDialog
.Description = "Browse to Job destination"
.ShowNewFolderButton = True

Forms :: Get All The Files Paths In A Selected Folder?
Feb 9, 2011I want to display them in a listbox. I have gobbled together this

get the actual path and then used that to get a bunch of mp3 files paths from a folder. However the above code gives me nothing in return.

VS 2010 F8 (stepping)executes Only First DIM Stmt And That's It?
Dec 23, 2010'global declaration
Dim FILE_NAME As String = "EventList.txt"
Dim PATH_FILE As String = Environment.CurrentDirectory() & "" & FILE_NAME
'end of global declaration
[Code]...
Using F8 to step through all of the code, it gets to this sub, highlites Dim fs and then hit F8 again it just pops up the form, no message boxes - nothing. Other notes: EventList does exist in stated directory.
Any ideas why it wouldn't complete the sub? the first debug line after hit the f8 is: A first chance exception of type 'System.IO.FileNotFoundException' occurred in mscorlib.dll but the file is there

May 12, 2010I have this code for drawing a path.

Dim dPath As New Drawing2D.GraphicsPath

l1 is a Label. When I call this it draws the path fine, but when I call it again it draws another path but doesn't get rid of the first path. Basically, I only want one path on the Label at a time.

Aug 27, 2011I am trying to write a simple standalone windows forms project that basically contains various buttons which run external application setup files. The problem is I want to be able to run it from a USB stick. I have created a folder inside the project with all the files I need to call in it. I am using Process.start but the paths are obviously going to be wrong when the project is running from the stick as the drive letter may be different each time. How do I over come this.

VS 2010 Finding Built-In Classes?
Feb 24, 2011What are the best ways you guys recommend to search the MSDN Code Library. I know there have been several instances in searching for ways to do something, doing a long workaround, and finding out later that there was a built in class that handled the problem that I was working on much simpler.
So what are some of the ways you guys use to find tools, classes, etc. when coding. Or are you just that awesome already.This is kindve just a general tips and tricks question. Sorry if Im in the wrong forum mods.
Populate The Structure From The Data File, Then Call The Method To Transfer It Back To The Website?
Apr 13, 2010I am adding a web interface (ASPX.NET: VB) to a data acquisition system developed with LabVIEW which outputs raw data files. These raw data files are the binary representation of a LabVIEW cluster (essentially a structure).LabVIEW provides functions to instantiate a class or structure or call a method defined in a .NET DLL file.I plan to create a DLL file containing a structure definition and a class with methods to transfer the structure.When the webpage requests data, it would call a LabVIEW executable with a filename parameter. The LabVIEW code would instantiate the structure,populate the structure from the data file, then call the method to transfer the data back to the website.
How do you recommend I transfer (copy) an instance of a structure from one .NET program to the VB.NET program that executed it?

VS 2010 Opening Folder If File Exists In Folder
Oct 6, 2011Having difficulty with the module below failing on line 21. It is telling me: The system cannot find the file specified. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070002) Basically what it is designed to do is look for a directory, if that exists then look for a file in that directory. If both = True then it should open the folder to browse the files. I believe the issue is with the "Program Files" being 2 words since the script runs using a root path, but I'm not sure how to format the path correctly to make it work?

Folder Browser Dialog And GetFiles / Get Directories Method
Jan 28, 2010I have a program that uses the Folder Browser Dialog... I am currently using it to GetFiles and list them in a list box... Currently, it searches directories and subdirectories to get files with a specific patter. I would like to either have the files show with their paths, or return a list of the directories to work with later on... Using the Get Directories method I beleive it creates an Array but I am unfamiliar with how to manage the list it returns. I am also having an issue when the user selects cancel the code continues running for the get files method and throws an error.
