View 1 RepliesI am very new to programming and I am having trouble getting my code to work properly.I am trying to write what I thought was a simple program, but I everything I have tried has not worked properly.I am creating a utility that will take installation and database files from one computer and copy those files to a flash drive so the flash drive will have the new version. The flash drives in question would either have one of two previous versions of the software on it or it will be blank. I decided to do this in two steps. First I check the computer for the new database and the flash drive for the old ones. I do this with the following code. [code] Next, I am deleting files from the flash drive if the old database is there and copying the files from the computer to the flash drive and showing progress on the progressbar. Here is where I am going all wrong. I have tried it a number of different ways, and unfortunatly (I'm kicking myself right now), I have not saved the code from the other methods I have tried.I have not been able to figure out how to get the background worker to work with what I am trying to do, though I have seen a lot of code over the past few weeks with examples of how to use it. It is a little above my head in terms of figuring it out by myself. So what I have used is the following code: [code]

I have a form that I will be using to copy directories of photos from memory cards to locations on a computer. I would like to add a progress bar to the application to show the progress of the copying in real time. This is the code that I use to copy the directory in the first place
Dim SourceDir As String = SourceTextBox.Text
Dim DestinationDir As String = DestinationTextbox.Text
If System.IO.Directory.Exists(DestinationDir) Then
My.Computer.FileSystem.CopyDirectory(SourceDir, DestinationDir,)
Else
My.Computer.FileSystem.CreateDirectory(Destination Dir)
My.Computer.FileSystem.CopyDirectory(SourceDir, DestinationDir)
I copied the code here and translate the code to vb [URL]it is working fine but there is one small problem but I cannot solve? Here is my code: SyncClientVB Another Source The scenario is... the progress is reported by an event (OnCopyingFile event)
Public Sub OnCopyingFile(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As CopyingFileEventArgs)
If pbFileTransfer.Value <> e.PercentCopied Then
If txtCurrentFile.Text <> e.FilePath Then
txtCurrentFile.Text = e.FilePath

The problem is that it is ok when runned but when I click the form it starts to hang but in the console... it is still continuing.

I've got an app which uses a background worker to copy files. It works fine but some files are quite large and it "appears" as though the app isn't doing anything. Is there an alternative to the File.Copy method of copying files so I can report on the progress of individual file copies, like the percentage complete?
View 19 RepliesI cannot do the following:
File.Copy(Application.StartupPath & "wait.exe", "%APPDATA%WAIT.EXE")
Can someone remind me how I got about copying a file to that location?
So, I have a task where I need to basically copy about 600,000 PDFs, some of which can be 5-6 MBs from one network fileshare to another network fileshare on another pc.Now, I crawled through the directories, sub-directories etc etc and created what I call a Filename/Filepath Database lookup table. This table contains the name and the unc fileshare path of each file which comes in handy.I have used Multi-threading and File.Copy to "copy" the files and I getting about 45K files per 4 hours which I need to be significantly faster then that and I am seeing performance degrade over time
View 1 RepliesI am trying to create a log file which I am going to use to populate some controls (DataGridView or Treeview). I am trying to figure out if should use text files or XML files to do so. Effectively the log will highlight multiple phases in a client-side app. The log will be written to at various phases when the project is running. The user will always have the options move on to the next phase or save progress and exit the project. As such, I want the log file to highlight how far the user has progressed throught the various phases AND I want the log to highlight varous information from each phase. Whenever the user starts the project, they will be given the option to load existing log files. So the project will have to read these log files and append them where necessary as the user progresses.
I am not sure what the best way to do this is and below is a rudimentary approach using text files. As you can see, the top of the file would have a summary of all the phases and whether or not the user completed each phase. Next each phase would have a data section highlighting what data was stored along the way. I have used a ":" to denote each section. Then within each section I would obviously need to use a delimeter for all my data. So if Phase1 = True, then I would load all the pertinent data from "Phase1:" into the desired control. Can anyone provide an efficient way of doing this and provide some insight as to whether I should use XML instead. The phases my change during development and I am not sure yet which controls I will be using. Does XML provide more flexibility.
In summary I am looking to create, read/write and append log files and populate controls with the data in varous sections of the log file. Example:
Phase1 = True
Phase2 = True
Phase3 = False
Phase4 = False

I have the following code where I make an copy of my database that I use. the code executes 100% but the problem I have is I'm not able to access my database afterward.I get a "Cannot start your application. The workgroup information file is missing or opened exclusively by another user." and so if I restart the application it all works fine again.I'm certain the reason is because I can only access that database using a specific account name and password which is not account I'm logged in with.What i want to try is to default that database mdb to the point where no user is accessing it, or to reassign the the only account name that can access it to that database mdb. I've tried playing around with file security but had no luck.

View 8 RepliesI have a DataGridView which lists the paths of a group of files, pptx, xlxs, etc. From a context menu they can copy the name of the file onto the clipboard, or delete the file or rename the file, but I would like to be able to actually attach the file itself to the clipboard so it could be pasted as an attachment to an email or something like that. How do I get the file itself onto the clipboard when I only have the path to it?
View 5 RepliesI have added two images as a resource in my project. I'd need to copy these images to a certain folder when the program is started. I'm not familiar about using resources, so far I have managed to set a picturebox to show one of these images like this:
Dim res() As String = GetType(Form1).Assembly.GetManifestResourceNames()
pBoxTest.Image = New System.Drawing.Bitmap( _
GetType(Form1).Assembly.GetManifestResourceStream(res(0)))
But I don't know how to get the url of that image so that I could copy it from it's url to another place.If I now try to find out the location of that picturebox's image I get an empty string: MsgBox(pBoxTest.ImageLocation)This should work in any computer where the program is run so of course I can not just hardcode the path of this resource.
