Oct 26, 2011I have the following function below, which works fine if you want to Extract a zip file. But, I have a problem, lets take an example, test.zip , which will have a folder within called Download which has txt files. Therefore, when I unzip I receive the Download folder with the files in it. Now, instead I want to unzip the zip folder to create a Test folder and within the Test folder the Download folder which will have all the text files. The function I have does ONLY the Download folder and not the test folder.

VS 2008 Create New Files Alongside Itself In The Program Files Area?

If I go there to create the file myself it comes up with a UAC prompt and when I hit allow it works fine but obv the program can't do that byiteslf so bombs out.Is there anyway I can over come that without the user having to grant admin rights to the program each time it starts or do I have to write data to another place?
View 4 RepliesFile I/O And Registry :: AVI Header - Program To Download And Play AVI Files The Files Are Large In Size And Long Time Wise
Dec 11, 2011I wrote a program to download and play AVI files the files are large in size and long time wise. I have the files playing as they are being downloaded but i can't see how long the file is or seek reliably. i was reading that the AVI headers are in the last 512kb of the AVI file *why would't they put it at the start* lol so my question is is there a way to download the last 512Kb of the file i'm downloading. i have the Bytes Read and Length of the file while its downlaoding i'm just not sure where to go from there, or how to do it atleast. If i had the length in time of the Avi file i could set the trackbar to be able to seek properly. or if someone has an idea how i could get the time of the video by using fps and some math i could prob do it that way too but idk how i would tell how i can find how many kb are in the fps i'm sure it changes so think that way is't going to be reliable. how to get the last 512kb would be the best option not sure if it can be done even.

View 4 RepliesZip And Unzip A File In VB 2010?
Jan 3, 2011I am trying to find out how to zip and unzip a file in Visual Basic 2010. I have looked extensively on google and youtube, but found little of use. I was able to run one block of code though:
Sub CompressFile(ByVal filetozip As String, ByVal zipfile As String)
Try
Dim fs As FileStream
[Code]....
but this is not what I need. I am creating a Desktop Screen Capture Program, for personal use, that takes a screen when a set timer ticks (1 min or 60000 milliseconds) and in that timer tick a call to a sub is made, CompressFile( file, compressedfilename). See the problem here? It overwrites the compressed file with the second screenshot. So I need to know how to create a Zip Archive, preferably Not using Gzipstream. I need one that i can open in Winzip or 7-zip. And before you ask, yes I tried to add a reference to the 7z.dll, and error. It does not matter whether the solution to this problem requires outside or inside visual basic, though i ask you ensure it is Virus-Free if it involves downloading.

Program Files Are All Mixed Up - In Class Saved Program In With Load Of Other Test Programs For The Same Assignment
Jan 8, 2010In class i saved my program in with load of other test programs for the same assignment and got everything mixed up i finally figured out what was what and loaded the program in Visual Basic. Now my program doesn't recognize one of my forms when i try to access the design view of it. I hit run for the hell of it and the program runs with errors of course but the form1 "the missing one" shows up with all the buttons etc and i can use it.

DB/Reporting :: Database - Access Denied To A Text File (since It's Stored In The Program Directory In The Program Files)
Sep 20, 2010I have a program where a lot of the required information for it is stored in text files. I simply read this information into large arrays. However, I don't think it's necessary to load all the information each time. Rather, it would be more efficient if I could simply search through a list of items to find the one I need and then use the data from it, or to find a similar name and use it elsewhere.
Would I be right in using a database? And is database programming done in SQL? I have a book on it telling me to use the SQL Server (IIRC), so I shouldn't be doing it in the VB.NET Express GUI?
Here's an example of what I would do:
Hex = 03 00 => dex number 003
Search in file Pokemon Dex Numbers
003 returns Bulbasaur
Check Bulbasaur base stats in the base stats file
etc
So basically I'm reusing a lot of information. I think a database would be best and it would all be internal right? I'm getting complaints about access denied to a text file (since it's stored in the program directory in the program files).
So to cap up the few questions I have:
-Databases are done in SQL and not inside the GUI?
-Databases would load internally?
-I could search a database without having to load it into like an array or something?
