I have a project which is using text file located in the same folder as executable. I want to prevent user from be able to do anything with that text file. I want to make this file be inside of the .exe so it want be visible by user.
Basically I have to create an application which is a quiz. According to the users score it will then determine what level of skill they have.I know i could do it really easily, by having a number of labels on the form which hold the questions. Then underneath have radiobuttons with possible answers. From this then use an IF statement to add a digit into an invisble label which can tally a score of correct answers. Assign each invisible label a variable which then can be summed in another label, from the score then use a SELECT CASE statement to let the user know what level they are at.But I know that this would mean alot of code and objects on the form. I have read that it would be more efficent to use an XML or TXT document to populate a label and radio buttons, this way it would also be easier to change questions and randomise them.The only problem is that i dont understand how to attach the XML or TXT file to the form so that it does the population of labels & radiobuttons.

Using asp.net mail... I need to have the file path stored in a field and when I send a mail, it should pick up the file based on the path and send it as an attachment. I work on VisualStudio 2005, C#/VB language and MS-SQL as my backend.
I have a requirement and that is as follows:Aussume that i have a windows form in which i type all the details of an employee and i need to attach his resume [ which is in a PDF Format] to his details. When i click the save button, all his details which he has entered can be stored into a table.Now what i really want is that:How do i attach a PDF file into the windows form which the user can do by clicking a button after typing all his details.When the user clicks the save button, how do i save the file that has been attached by the user.When i retrieve the employee details, i want the file which was attached also to be displayed and shown.
I know this probably sound like a virus but I mean like if I add an existing item or reference to my project and that is like a video file for an intro to a game so when people play the game it can show my video. How can I get that video to copy from my program to their PC?
I have no experience on this matter, so I do not expect anyone to explain in details how this is done, just point me in the right direction, maybe tell me what the correct name for this is. I'm sure it is pretty commonly in use.
I think the best way to explain this, is through my exact need. So, I have a button on my website that should cause the user to download an exe file. The exe file pretty much gathers a few informations from the users PC, and post them to my data-base through a web-service. Now my problem is, these informations should be assigned to the user who downloaded the exe file's row in the DataBase.All this would be solved by assigning a single Integer value(the users ID) to this exe file on the download request, and then a way for the exe file to also get this value assigned to it, but how do I do that?
My language is asp.net for my website, and the exe file is written in vb.net.I know I could fake this by making the exe file show a login-form and get the user-id this way, but I really like the application run without the user noticing to much.
i have a windows form created using vb.net 2005 that allows users to attach files. When the user clicks the AttachFile button, they browse to select a file they want to attach and then the code places the file they selected into a predetermined location. The primary file type they will be attaching is a windows meta file (.wmf).
The attached file is saved and appears as a hyperlink for the user to open at a later time. When the user clicks to open the file, it is suppose to insert it into Autocad; however, it wasn't doing this.
The problem comes from attaching the file using the StreamWriter for some reason its not working correctly. I verified that this is the issue: When i hardcoded the file path to the original file's location, it opens up just fine when clicking the hyperlink. When I compare file size from the original to the one attached, I see that the original is 12Kb and the one I attached is 19Kb.
Here's my code to attach the file: I'm thinking perhaps it has something to do with this line? sReadFile = sr.ReadToEnd() but I'm just not sure. I tried changing this line to sr.Read but that doesn't work either.
This may or may not need to be moved to the deployment folder...Okay I have a vb.Net application that connections to a sql server 2005 database "TacticalDB" while debugging the application I was using the connection string,
Dim con As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection("Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS; AttachDbFilename=" + Application.StartupPath + "DataTacticalDB.mdf; Database=TacticalDB; Trusted_Connection=True; User Instance=true")
Which works fine, but I have moved into getting the application ready for deployment and so I created a setup application in the same solution as the application. Now I have added the database file with the setup but when my application gets to the con.Open() line it catches an exception,
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Database 'C:UsersJohnDocumentsVisual Studio 2008ProjectsBlackout_ScoutBlackout_Scoutinx86DebugDataTacticalDB.mdf' already exists. Choose a different database name. Cannot attach the file 'C:Program Files (x86)MicrosoftSetup1DataTacticalDB.mdf' as database 'TacticalDB'.
[code]....
Now I only have the one place where the application should look for the Database and thats Application.startupPath/Data/TacticalDB.mdf and if im running the newly installed exe it shouldn't look back in the myprojects folder but it is.
I'm writing a macro in Excel to connect to a button on an MS Excel 2007spreadsheet. When clicked the button copies some data from the file and uses the data to create a new .txt file. Since the macro is creating the file I can control the file name and storage location. Once created I want to e-mail the text file to a standard e-mail address.
ActiveWorkbook.EnvelopeVisible = True With ActiveSheet.MailEnvelope .Introduction = Range("T22")
How do we embed / attach a pdf file (100 page file) in one of our form and the users should be allowed to download the same while executing /using this tool.

Why does this not work and why am I getting this error?I am under a deadline of less than 20 hours to get it working.
I am getting this error:{"An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file D:WORKDocStoreDocStoreDatabaseDocStore.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share."}
I verified the file exists and is checked out for edit. This is in my app.config:
I am creating simple mail without any atach using Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook. Mail is successfully created and opened, but after this button 'Attach File' does not work (it could be clicked, file could be selected but it is not attached). Here is simple code:

Hi, i'm trying to use the treeview to display the text of a rtf (rich text file) file when an specific node if clicked.HomeOMGWOOTFor example, if i pick OMG, i want the text of lol.rtf to be displayed on a richtextbox. But somehow i just can't manage to get it... I know to import the text of a .txt file to a textbox, but using the treeview makes it more complicated.This is the code im using right now:
Private Sub TreeView1_NodeMouseClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.TreeNodeMouseClickEventArgs) Handles TreeView1.NodeMouseClick Select Case e.Node.Index Case 0
[code]....
Another thing is, that i can't import the *.rtf text into a richtextbox and i don't know why.
So I'm in the final stages of finishing a program I've been working on for nearly a year now, and this is basically my final hurdle. The Save dialogue is working beautifully, with 'flags' in order to switch it over from the regular input into text boxes to the Listbox input protocol.
However, I'm having a *** of a time getting it to take lines from the text file and put them in the proper text box. Here is an example file:
Quote:
SHOWNAME CALLNAME BREED
[Code]....
So with the sample file I provided above, in the textbox named callNameText would appear "SHOWNAME", and so on and so forth. With this build, I get a NullReferenceException on the "Me.Controls(strboxNames(i)).Text() = strAllText(ati)" line.
