Create A .net Program And Allow Visitors To A Website To Download This Program?
Nov 15, 2009
I am very very new to VB.NET and would like to ask a simple question. I want to create a vb.net program and allow visitors to a website to download this program. However, I prefer not to have visitors download a zip folder. I would like to have a program that just gives a prompt to save in a selected folder, once the saved file is selected it prompts the person to download, and then when finished prompts the person to run the program. The reason is twofold:
1. I don't like the extra step involved with unzipping the file. and 2. I don't like the visitors having to look for the "main" file program within the new downloaded folder. So is there any way to have just one file for others to download without having it in a zip folder?

Im writing a program to download a file from a official website every Sunday. The adress of this site keeps changing. Does anyone know how I can link to this address?
[URL]
I've highlighted the part of the adress that changes. As you can see, it's a date, but not nessesarily the current date. It could be yesterday, or the day before. I've tried something like this:
Dim link
link = "http:www.fiskeridir.no/content/download/4641/30774/version/254/file/Register-internett-*.xlsx"
This doesn't work.

I am new to Visual Basic. I have Visual Basic 2010 Express. I am planning to make a program that can download files from a website to put on an SD Card to Soft Mod, or hack it. I want it so that the user clicks on a radio button based on what System Menu their Wii is running on. There is currently, System Menu 4.0 or less, System Menu 4.2, and System Menu 4.3.
They also have to choose a region from a List Box. The current options are:
Region U (Americas)
Region K (Korean)
Region J (Japanesse)
Region E (European)
I also want it so that the user can choose where to download the installation files for the Wii soft Mod.
I want to have a button that when the user clicks on it, a pop up asks them where they want to download the files to appear, once they choose a location, i want it to download a file based on what they chose and i also want it so that it tells them what to do with the files and where to put them.

My home page contains three Dropdownlist controls, the lists are populated from my database i created ie. (From three tables)- Courses, Grades and Schools.
I want a situation whereby a user clicks on any of the Courses, or the Grades, or any of the Schools from my dropdownlist controls, and selects the search button, the names of the students that took the course, their grades in that course, and their schools should appear in a table form. if its a Grade that is selected, the names of the students with the grade, their courses and their schools should also appear in a table form. And likewise the School.

I'm trying to create a shortcut for my program that sends the user to the world map of a website with the press of a button, but it isn't working. Here's my code:
Private Sub Game_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles Game.KeyDown
If e.KeyCode = Keys.M Then
Game.Navigate("http:fallensword.com/index.php?cmd=world")
End If
End Sub
"Game" is a WebBrowser control.

I'm trying to create a program that installs required .dll's for a program due to a clean install..What I need to do is Get a value in the registry and use it for the program files path.. but I've noticed some pc's don't have the same configuration because of the version the user is using. Anyway This is what I have so far:[code].....
What I'm trying to do is find a registry key called "SoftInstallPath", if found I need the end of the path to goto the new directory(new_dll) not the old one (dll).. and if "SoftInstallPath" cannot be found.. I need it to find "ProgInstallPath" and use it instead and do the same thing.By the way I'm using Visual Studio Professional 2008 on a Vista x86 machine.Also error I keep getting is: Warning 10 Function 'FixPath' doesn't return a value on all code paths. A null reference exception could occur at run time when the result is used.

Recently we decided to make a web based game that I would like to see on a web page. Prblem is I have no idea how I would get my website to see the program and run it. I'm fairly decent with Vb its self but ASP is completely new to so Im ultra newb. My understanding about using ASP is since its Microsoft based you can't use any tools like WAMP or PHP Admin or anythign I currently have to get ASP programs to run but I could be wrong. I barely know how to setup a webpage so I'm 100% newb on my venture into webpage building but I want to learn more about it.

I need Microsoft Visual Studio: Installer 1.1, where can I download it and why doesn't Microsoft still have it I know someone in IT has it. Then if it can't be downloaded from Microsoft why does this site [url]... still list it as being available for download. Doesn't anyone at Microsoft archive their old software just for the purpose of still having it around. If Bill Gates only knew what Microsoft has become since he drop out the scene he would be disgusted.

I have looked almost everywhere on the internet and I cannot find a way to download a file from the internet into a specific folder that works with VB.NET 2010. I would like to download a file called, for instance, example.txt, and download it into, for example, %HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%AppDataRoamingMicrosoftWindowsStart MenuProgramsStartup so that it will run automatically at system startup.

I want to make a simple window which would contain a list of some free programs available for download. The program list would be derived from a web page that has download links to the programs. My program would check this webpage, and provide the download links so that the user could download the programs in-window.
