Access Files From Another Computer Connected Over LAN?
Aug 26, 2010
Can anyone provide the resource to learn making connection between computers over the LAN and retrieve files? EDIT: And can I browse the folders like its done in the local machine?
How do you share files from one computer to another that are connected in one wireless internet connection? I mean, it's possible using shared folders this means it could be possible in vb.net too..
I have a program that needs to access the files that are open by another program on the computer.When my application comes up I can easily see if the other application is running with the .net Process.GetProcessesByName method
Dim MyProcesses() as Process = GetProcessesByName("AnApplication") For Each Instance as Process in MyProcesses If MsgBox("application is running - do you want to end it?", MsgBoxStyle.YesNo or MsgBoxStyle.Question, "Warning") = MsgBoxResult.Yes then
[code].....
The problem is that the Instance.Kill does not allow the application to end gracefully. In VB6 you could use the SendMessage API to send a close message to the application and it would end gracefully - i.e. give the user the normal closing prompt. This just slays the application - leaving any open files in their potentially incomplete state, etc.
i have encountered a problem, i want to access the data coming to the computer from the in-built bluetooth module of a computer on windows platform, this data has been sent by a remote bluetooth module say a by an autonomous device (just like a bluetooth mouse connecting to the computer). The to be sent is in the form of numbers and i need these to manipulate on the computer.
I'm doing a search option in my system where if your searching for a entry even if you didnt typed the whole word, all of the entry that contains the letters that you have typed will appear, well i really cant explain it but it goes like this if i have entries:
reserve,reservoir,restaurant,jaded,mend,feed in my database and the searcher typed "res" all the word containing res will appear. i know it has something to do with the like parameter but i just cant do the code right.
I was just wondering if you could view the items on a connected Zune device (such as the Zune HD or any of the others. (4GB, etc.))Also, possibly listen to the songs / watch the videos on it with the Windows Media Player codec in the program, and view the pictures in a PictureBox? Is this possible at all? Can I at least view the items? Or is this strictly forbidden?
i am wondering if it is possible to get the source code for the following:
1. use vb.net code to set on/off primary key when connected to Access database
2. update a particular data.
for e.g: hostname: AES-19 *use source code to check data in Microsoft Access database if hostname is new, insert into Access. if hostname already exist, update into Access *so that i will not have duplicate data in Access.
how can i get it to play other files besides just .wav, like .mp3. wave files are way too large to be used easily if you want a good quality. why cant i play .mp3 files with it?when i convert a 2.1 mb mp3 file to .wav it turns out to be 36 mb?any other ways besides computer.audio to play audio files on command?

I have a windows app that has a bindingNavigator connected to BindingSource that connects to an Access database. I am manually adding a record to the underlying database using an OLEDBConnection/command (cloning the current record). The insert into the database works fine, what I am not sure on how to do is force the bindingNavigatgor to refresh and read the new record and refelect it in the record count/next/previous buttons.Jack
On my program I am trying to make a ToolStripStatusLabel's text change to "connected" if connected to a network and if not connected to a network change the text to " Not Connected" then I don't know how to display a image if connected to a network or not connected. So if the computer is connected to a network I have a image that I would like to be displayed next to the ToolStripStatusLabel. And if not connected to a network, can the program display a different image? I tried this:
I have a problem I want to make a server and client where the server is password protected and will make the client display files/folders in a designated folder which will be in the server's current directory and the client will ask what IP and password to connect to and if the password is correct is allows the client to access the files/folders in that folder in C.D. of the server and the client can download any file within the folder by clicking a button, yet don't even know where to start.
I have a DataSet with a DataTable that has several numeric columns of Data. The numeric data is composed of distances given in U.S. Standard units. I currently have my ComboBoxes set up and working, but I need to expand on what I currently have in two ways.I need to be able to convert the Decimal numbers in my data column being displayed to Fractions, is there a way to do this and maintain databinding? In this case its the Display Member of the data source...I need to be able to display my drop down options in different sets of units... I've written Unit Conversion classes to help take care of this, but I don't know if I can somehow do this as well and maintain databinding? I'd like to convert the units on the display members as well...
Private Sub ComboBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles ComboBox1.SelectionChangeCommitted Select Case ComboBox1.SelectedItem
[code]....
What is the best approach for using ComboBoxes when dealing with issues such as displaying fractions and units...
