I use this line to download files: My.Computer.Network.DownloadFile(VideoFilename, SaveLocation, "", "", True, 8000, True But if a users cancel the download my application crashes.

I need to get rid of the file when a users cancel

I'm trying to download a file from the internet by clicking a button in MS Access.
I'm trying to use My.Computer.Network.DownloadFile as described here: [URL]
Private Sub Command2_Click()
My.Computer.Network.DownloadFile("http://www.example.com/temp/xml_test.xml", "C:xml_test.xml")
End Sub
but the 'Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications' IDE that I'm typing this into seems to have no idea what I'm talking about (text just turns red).
Can I just not do this through the built in VB editor or can I simply load a library or something to make it work?
Sorry but I'm very new to VB and to Access so search results are not specific enough for me to understand - lord knows I've tried.
I'm using Access 2010 but the DB was created in an previous version - not sure if that matters.

View 3 RepliesThe below code for some reason isn't working with filefront. I'm grabbing the URL that returns the file to download but the wc.downloadfile() code doesn't download the file. It creates an empty file called 100.rar in my temp directory on C: but doesn't have any data. Is there something I'm doing wrong or is filefronts redirect messing something up? If I put the URL I get with the fixUrl variable, it pops up the file to download in my internet browser fine.

I'm creating a CD that when inserted into a CD-Rom will AutoRun, which brings up the program starting with a splash screen, then the first window form. All this works, no problem. On the first window form I have a button (one of many) all buttons work (so far) except this one button. (I actually haven't test3d the buttonjs to see if they work on / from a CD yet, but they work in Debug).
I would like to have the user click the button, and have that button be tied to a zip file or an exe file that is in a folder on my CD, that will be downloaded to the user's computer. I would like the usual window to come up asking the user where the user would like to save the file, the user will choose the folder, click the save button and the file downloads from the CD to the hard drive of the user's computer, so the user can open it later. It doesn't have to Run from the CD, it is just to download to be accessed later.
Some files will be a Zip and others are Exe files that I would like to have downloaded to the user's PC by way of a button click. Of course the user's computer will need to be able to know which drive the CD is in.
This is what I've tried and doesn't seem to work...Have not tried it from directly from CD (Haven't tried anything directly from the CD as of yet, but after this problem my next step is try and make a AutoRun CD and test the program).
Process.Start(Application.StartupPath &
"SoftwareApp1.zip")
I'll start another post for How to Make my Program ready for a CD. I think it may involve Publishing...but publishing only made a setup.exe, which is Not what I want.
i have a task to create a TCP Server (a program that is listening on its network card interfaces for incoming data stream).I have search on the internet and i found that i can use two methods : Socket or TCPListener class.I have created an example for Socket class, but i wondering how could i test it? I need to check that if another computer in the network send some string data to the listener computer , then this message should be displayed.Here is the example from microsoft that i am using for TCP Server using Socket:
Public Shared Sub Main()
' Data buffer for incoming data.
Dim data = nothingc[code]....
But it does not work because of the PORT setting.If in the TCP Server i have "Dim localEndPoint As New IPEndPoint(ipAddress, 0)" the client crashes, but if i change the port from any (0) to 11000 for example,the client works fine.Do you know why?
Later edit2:Maybe i should have started with this question:Which method is recommended for my scope?asynchronous or synchronous method ?
I have a .NET 2.0 *.dll that calls My.Computer.Network.Ping(). The *.dll is then run out of an *.exe via AppDomain.CreateDomain() and Invoke(). The problem is that this works just fine under Windows XP but under Windows 7, I get an exception saying that no network connection is available. I tried the Ping() call out of a small console application under Windows 7 and it works just fine.

I am developing a computer application designed to monitor the network and CPU statistics on a computer remotely. The monitored computer would have my program installed and the monitoring computer would display, in a form, the information being sent from the remote client.The application does not send any information regarding packets, user names, passwords, etc. It is solely meant for monitoring CPU performance and Network resources remotely.
What would be the best method to send this information over to my host machine?I am programing in Visual Studio 2008 on windows XP. The client machine is also XP. I know this sounds a little shady, but it is required for my little business (http://www.iquorum.net) to monitor what and when something happens on our machines when I and my employees are away.
