I've mainly been doing ASP programming up 'til now, and I have a pretty simple question.
I'm creating a program that will copy a selected file to a selected directory, and I want to store recent files/dirs so that they can be selected from a combo box. I was planning to just create a settings with "files" and "dirs", and just store the strings as | separated values (since that's an illegal file character).
First off, I am completely new to VB and have no previous programming experience. I was required to take an Intro to Visual Basic class.
As a result, I was assigned to write a program for my final project. My professor wanted us to challenge ourselves and try to design something we would use. While my fellow classmates chose damage calculators and stat calculators, I chose to write something that would move files around. It was challenging for a beginner, but i figured i would be able to find alot of help in my book and online. I'm impressed at myself that I've made it as far as I have, but I've hit a snag in the road.
The project is due friday, and for the life of me I can't figure out how to move the files... which is a bit of a problem.[code]....

View 5 RepliesI am using a webbrowser control, which is used for both internet and folder exploring. How can I determine when viewing files on the local directory, which file is selected?
I ran across something in my searches saying there was a property under the webbrowser.document called SelectedItem. But this must not be in 2008.
The idea is to click Button1, for it to open a browser window, then select 1 or more files from a directory and add them to ListBox1.Currently I'm using a very basic method that adds all files from a directory to my ListBox
Dim files() As String = IO.Directory.GetFiles("C:Users")
ListBox1.Items.Clear()
For Each file As String In files

MSDN Forums, My name is Ted and I need help with my application.So, basically it has a Textbox and two buttons. In which I created one button to FileBrowseDialog, and the other to place the resouce to the directory selected in the TextBox by the FileBrowseDialog.
Example-Not In Code: If TextBox has "C:UserDesktop" Selected (From The Browse Button), Then Press "Button Two" and moves (Resource) file to the directory and replaces the original. This Resource can be any file, for Example "D3DX9_43.dll"
In-Use:User clicks "Browse. . ." Button and browses for a directory to place the file, So for Example: "C:Program Files (x86)My App And then clicks "Place" Button and overwires the original file, Example: "myapp.dll"

I have a scenario where-in I have a DataTable with certain columns "Col1, Col2, Col3". I want to copy just "Col2, Col3" into another DataTable which has a primary key "ID". What is the best way to copy them. There are 5000+ records and performance is a key factor.I tried with Select, DefaultView.RowsFilter but no success. I know one option is to loop through all records an copy data one by one in second DataTable. But wanted to know a better way.

Here is what I got so far:
1) I have a VB2010 Project. The form contains the following things:
1 RichTextBox (RichTextBox1) 8 Buttons (Colors: Red, Green, Yellow, Blue, Teal, Pink, White, Black) (Button1 until Button8)
1 Button "Copy Selected Text" (Button9) 1 TextBox (TextBox1) 1 Button "Copy Finished Text to Clipboard" (Button10)
2) Here is how the program should work:
I write some text into the RichTextBox I select specific parts of the text, click one of the 8 color buttons and the selected text becomes that color. I do that until all the text is randomly colored e.g: Red Green Yellow Blue Teal Pink White Black
I select all of the text "RedGreenYellowBlueTealPinkWhiteBlack" I press the "Copy Selected Text" Button (Button9) The selected text should become visible in the TextBox like this: ^1Red^2Green^3Yellow^4Blue^5Teal^6Pink^7White^8Black
I press the "Copy Finished Text to Clipboard" (Button10) The character count (length) of the TextBox1 should not exceed 32 characters. If it does show message box. The whole TextBox1 should be copied. If the text is successfully copied, show MessageBox with "Success" else show MessageBox with "Error".
I'm searching a Datagridview for a date, when that date is -2 month this row is selected. I'm not sure how to calculate the date difference. Ex, 1/22/2009 -2 month = 11/22/2008 when this is true this seleced row should be copy to txtFound.Text Here's the search
Dim x As Integer = 0
While x < DataGridView1.Rows.Count
Dim y As Integer = 0
While y < DataGridView1.Rows(x).Cells.Count
Dim c As DataGridViewCell = DataGridView1.Rows(x).Cells(y)

I have 42 RichTextBoxes (RTBs) and I would like to add my ContextMenuStrip to each of them (which I have already done), but the problem I am having is when the application is running and the ContextMenuItem "Copy" for example is clicked, I can only make it copy the context of one of the RTBs, when I would like it to copy the contents of any individual one. So as I mentioned, I have 42 RTBs, but I am having trouble getting the contents of the focused RTB. The below code is just copying the 1 RTB and when I Copy on another RTB, it copies the contents of RTB1.
I originally started out with like so, but is just for the one RTB and when I add more than one in the code below it's even more of a disaster..
Private Sub Copy_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Copy.Click
RichTextBox1.Copy()
End Sub
I tried using this, but I was not sure how to add the copy function into it:
Private Sub Copy_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Copy.Click
Try
For Each itm As Control In EnumerateAllControls(Me)
For Each c As Control In itm.Controls
If TypeOf c Is RichTextBox Then
