File Filter On More Than ONE File Type?

Aug 2, 2010

I am trying to make a file/drive/folder directory interface with VB. It is all working except the only thing i can't manage to make it do is to filter on more than one file type. I want to be able to filter on BMP and TIF files, i have the following code:

filterList.AddItem "*.TIF; *.BMP"
filterList.SelText = filterList.List(0)

'Apply the file type choosen to the file list displayed

filDialog.Pattern = filterList.Text

The filterList is the list box with the file type extensions and the filDialog is the list box with the files.It only filters on the first file type, so in this case TIF (no BMP), even if you swap them it only filters on the first file type.

Ignoring A Certain File Type In A .net "filter"

Nov 18, 2009

I made a program which uses a filesystemwatcher component, but it seems to record absolutely EVERY change made, and I want to set it to ignore some file types. How can I set the filter to ignore certain types? For example, .LOG files. I don't want it telling me that that file updates, cause it does it every second practically.

Restrict The File Type In The File Browse Menu Of An AsyncFileUpload In The ASP.NET AJAX Control Toolkit

Jul 28, 2010

I would like to restrict what they see in the file upload dialog, which is set to "All Files" by default. I understand how to validate that they only uploaded a certain file type, that is not the question here. I would just like to know how to default the file type in the file selection dialog.

Is there any way to change this to "PNG only" or "*.png"?

This is using AsyncFileUpload in the ASP.NET AJAX Control Toolkit.

Change The Log File Filter (SourceSwitch ) Values At Run Time?

Aug 9, 2009

I want to change the log file filtering at filtering at runtime. I am referring to the traceEventType in the following example.

My.Application.Log.WriteEntry(String.Format("{0:T} DeserilizeProperties", Now), _
TraceEventType.Verbose)

I have found the documentation that allows me to change it in the config file, but I need to do it at runtime. What I am trying to acheive is to allow a beta tester to turn on more detailed logging (according to the TraceEventType...) when encountering an issue in order to email me the log. And then switch back to less detail.TraceEventType.Information)

.Application.Log.WriteEntry(String.Format("{0:T} Send email", Now), TraceEventType.Information)

VS 2010 File System Mini Filter Driver?

Jun 20, 2011

Bit of a long shot but does anyone know if it is possible (I said possible, not easy ) to create a file system mini filter driver in .NET? I'm assuming not but I don't really know of any technical reason why... just that every single example on the interwebs is C++.

I realise it would take me a very long time just to convert all of the functions and structures required to .NET before I even got started on the actual functionality of the filter driver itself but theoretically is it possible?

Generic Function For List Type Filter?

Jan 13, 2011

I would like to write a generic function that would search a List(Of T) for all elements of type TFilter and return a List(Of TFilter) which comprises those elements.

I've tried this:
Public Function FilterList(Of T, TFilter)(ByVal ListToFilter As List(Of T)) As List(Of TFilter)
Return ListToFilter.FindAll(Function(z) z.GetType.Equals(GetType(TFilter))).ConvertAll(New Converter(Of T, TFilter)(Function(z) CType(z, TFilter)))
End Function

But, it gives the following error:
Value of type 'T' cannot be converted to 'TFilter'.

OK I have a base query that is returning a list (ObjectQuery, actually but I don't think it matters) I have about 5 subtypes based on the main type and I need to filter them.

SaveFileDialog Filter Save As Type Asks To Overwrite Old Extension Bug?

Feb 27, 2012

I have a VB.NET program with a SaveFileDialog control with the filter set as ".asx|*.asx|.m3u|*.m3u" (without the quotes). It works fine to save a file, but if I then try to save a file with the same name of an existing file and then change the extension in the save as type box, it still thinks I want to save the file as the existing file and asks to overwrite the file, disregarding the newly selected file extension.

I have tried setting the SaveFileDialog.FileName = Nothing after saving a file, so the Save File Dialog Box the File name box is empty, but then I like to click the existing file to get the file name I want, then select a new extension and try to save, but it still asks to overwrite the file with the other extension.

I hope my situation is clear and sorry if it has been already asked a million times...but can anyone point me in the right direction or tell me how I can save the file with the currently selected extension, not the previous selected extension when the file name was entered?

Code:
If SaveFileDialog.ShowDialog = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
If Path.GetExtension(SaveFileDialog.FileName) = ".asx" Then

Quickbooks/QBFC 8.0 - Multiple Criteria Of An Identical Request Filter Type?

Aug 18, 2009

I would like to query an Employee by matching First and Last name. Ideally, I'd like to be able to specify that in one EmployeeQueryRq QBFC object.

I think I have a start:

Dim EmployeeQueryRq As IEmployeeQuery
EmployeeQueryRq = requestMsgSet.AppendEmployeeQueryRq()
EmployeeQueryRq.ORListQuery.ListFilter.ORNameFilter.NameFilter.MatchCriterion.SetValue(ENMatchCriterion.mcContains)
EmployeeQueryRq.ORListQuery.ListFilter.ORNameFilter.NameFilter.Name.SetValue(LastName)

Is there any way I can add an additional NameFilter to the same request? Or am I stuck walking a response list for the other criteria (albeit a smaller one limited to containing at least one value)?
