Delete Files Older Than X Days?

Feb 8, 2012

I have a basic bit of code which i am using to delete text files within a given directory[code]...

intdays is a variable which determines how many days the files should be retained for.

To test the code i set intdays to 0, assuming that it would delete any files in the directoy. However it doesn't, but creates no errors.

The time "Now" is #2/8/2012 13:59:00 PM# which is greater than 0. But im confused as to why it doesnt then delete the file?

VS 2005 - Delete Certain File Type From Multiple Directories Based On Days Old

May 18, 2009

I am new to VB but I do have VS2005 and I was looking at some code examples here on deleting files by days old and I need to do something similar, I would like to start a say C:myData**.xit and search through all sub folders under myData and move all the .xit files based on days old into a temp folder. Then I could verify them before I delete them manually to be safe. So how do I loop through all sub folders? and can I just modify this code to do that? Here is the code I was thinking about starting with [URL].

Dim files As System.Collections.ObjectModel.ReadOnlyCollection(Of String)
Dim singlefile As String
Dim CreatedOn As Date
'Declare the counter
Dim deletedcount As Integer = 0

So the user will choose the days and the hours for my program open and execute the progress that I programed on the button START, so how to make it start on the days/hours that user wants? Btw the program will stay on the Notification area.

Function To Create Specific Amount Of Random Numbers

Apr 5, 2009

I am currently taking a introductory level class to vb.net. For the assignment it asks to create two functions. One function should create a random number within a given range. I have completed that part. What I am having trouble with is the second function. It wants the next function to use the previous function three times so that it displays 3 separate random numbers within a given range and display it in a D2 string format.

Large Amount Of Image Files For App?

Jun 19, 2010

Just a doubt: if I have large amount of image files for my app, is it ok to store them in the resource file ?

Will those files be saved in a single resource file ? Will that cause any problem to the performance of my app ? When I try to access a image file from the resource using code, will it load that file only into the memory or the entire image contents from the resource file ?

VMWare Specific Or Perhaps The Type Of Install Specific?

Apr 27, 2010

Strange story... I downloaded VMWare but it has since advised of an available update. I downloaded the update and when I click to install it, a window comes up with VB Code from a project I created a while back in a completely separate folder from this install file. I then tried downloading the trial of VMWare Workstation and when running the installer it shows the same thing. I don't know of anyway to contact VMWare support since I don't pay for any services or products and all there is available is a FAQ type section. Of course this problem would not be in there, nor can I find any such related issue online. his is VMWare specific or perhaps the type of install specific. I have no other issues with any other app installations other than with VMWare installations.

what language would be useful to make a program that looks in a directory and saves the amount of files inside of it as a variable then have it check if the variable does not equal what it was originally when it counted then run a script. since i have a folder that adds a new file to the directory every time something is changed i want a script to run that just runs an exe.

Develop An App That Will Export A Large Amount Of Zip Files All Of Which Have The Same Single File In Them?

Nov 21, 2009

I am trying to develop an app that will export a large amount of zip files all of which have the same single file in them - simply named 'dw' (with no extension). They will all be in the same directory. I want the file 'dw' to be renamed to the zip file name + .tif. (I will actually eventually need for this to use the magic number to determine if the file is a .tif or a .rtf.) I have been able to get it to cycle through, if the file is NOT renamed. I seem to run into issues when I want the file renamed. It just creates the first .tif file and thats it. I think its actually just cycling through but everything is getting that same name. For the record i am not a programmer by trade, just trying to help with something at work - thus I know the code I have peiced together probably isn't 'by the book'

Dim p As New ProcessStartInfo(ByVal unzipit As String, ByVal zipdir As String, ByVal arg As String, ByVal arg2 As String)
Dim di As System.IO.DirectoryInfo
di = New System.IO.DirectoryInfo(zipdir)
For Each diar In di.GetFiles()

Get Amount Of Money User Has And Doesnt Go Over Amount Hechecked

Jun 7, 2011

im trying to make a fast food program on which the user will input the amount that he has, then he will check on what he wants, by using check boxes. There are 7 different check boxes with 7 different amounts of money. I have the program somewhat finished (thanks for the people that helped me before) but theres still a couple of things that I still need to get finished but I dont know how to.I need to be able to get how much money the user has (this will be entered threw a text box, I think I accidentally messed this part up, because I cant get it to work right, (theres alreasy a permit amount of money in there and it needs to be what the user enters instead of the permit, 5.59, one) and this will be the maximum amount he can spend, then the user will check on the food he wants (and the program will add the sales tax also) then it will produce an answer saying if you have enough money or if you dont. But what im confused on is how do I get the users amount of money and make it the maximum mount he can spend and make sure it doesnt go over the amount that he has checked.[code]
