Okay I downloaded ILmerge hoping to get my .exe file combined with my .dll files but when installing ilmerge I am not sure what to further do from there as there were no instructions anywhere of my knowing on what to do after installation. All I want to know is how to use it after installing it. (Using VB 2010) framework 4.0
View 2 RepliesI am working on an existing vb#.net 2008 windows form application that has a large number of project files in one solution. This solution can be executed many ways depending upon what the startup project is. However there is one project file that is generally the main 'startup project'. This application also has no setup and deployment currently.
What I am trying to do is to determine what exes, dll's, config files are needed to be combined together so I can deploy them? Is there certain directory paths I can use to determine what files I need? Is there some kind of a way I can test the combined files to determine what files work together so I can deploy them?
I am sitting with a situation that I have to combined (3 years) for 26 site of 29000 database files where there is 1 table in each data base called RECDATA, I need to combined all that data Into one database file called RECDATA.
For example there is a database called DB1 with a REDATA table inside it, and then DB2 with a RECDATA table inside it, DB3 with a RECDATA table inside it est. So I need to put all the Recdata into 1 Database file, or to copy all the RECDATA from all the database files to 1 RECDATA they all have the same columns All I need is to get all that data into 1 RECDATA table.
The program where this database comes from is a voicerecording system creating a new database every day. There is 1 database just for indexing (to view the recordings) and then the daily database is where the recording lies in, that Colum is called RECFILE. I will give you a example of the 2 database.
If I have the following a OrElse b and a is True then clearly b is never evaluated. But if I add an Or, then what?a OrElse b Or c
Does/should c get evaluated? And what if I put in some brackets?Apologies if this is basic. Of course I can test for the answer myself but I can't find this question answered here or elsewhere. Lots of questions dealing with Or versus OrElse but nothing dealing with Or with OrElse

View 1 RepliesOK I am working on a windows service that monitors specific directories and checks to see if a file is changed. If a file is changed, it is attached to an email and sent to an admin.
The way I solve the problem...
I create a FileInfo object to do the following:
-I check to see if the file has an extension that is allowed to be attached
-I check to see if the file is under a max size to be attached
I create an Attachment object to do the following:
-attach the file to an email
I then send the email. The problem with this is when I edit the file after it is successfully attached the first time, I CANNOT save changes to that file. I get an error message saying that it is being used and cannot change it. My solution to this problem is to call the "dispose()" method of the attachment class. When i do this, I can edit the file all I want to and the first attachment works but after that the "dispose()" method always throws an exception and the file is never attached to the email when the file is edited again. Why is this happening?
Asking for little guidance again... For my custom control, I grouped some properties in some class. Then in the main control code, I use:

I have a number of text boxs that gather data and put it in a combined string in a rich text box that displays all of the collected data.

I 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 RepliesI'm trying to copy multiple excel source files into one excel file. My current code is working only for 3 source files..If more than 3 files are there, it doesn't copy the data but creates blank work sheet in the output excel file. Lets say I have a source folder with 5 excel files. Each workbook contains one worksheet with data. It copies upto 3 worksheets along with data into output excel file.
Lets say excel1 contains A as work sheet, excel2 contains B as work sheet ,excel3 contains C as work sheet ,excel4 contains D as work sheet ,excel5 contains E as work sheet .Now my output excel file should look like..OutputExcel with A, B, C, D, E along with respective data.But my current code is giving output as A,B,C worksheets along with respective data but its creating blank sheet1,sheet2 in place of D & E.

View 2 RepliesI am writing a backup program that zips files. Using some sample code I have the following that creates a zip file. Problem is it does not get any subdirectories or files. Where am i going wrong?
Dim azFileNames() As String = Directory.GetFiles(SourceFolder)
Dim objCrc32 As New Crc32()
Dim zipStream As ZipOutputStream
[CODE]...
Alternativley, there is another component to the zipping dll that I could probably bypass the above altogether. It is: FZ.CreateZip(DestFile, SourceFolder, True, "", "") Where DestFile is (Output stream as system.io.stream). I'm trying to read all the files, directories, sub dir and files, etc from a specific location, let's say 'My Documents' into Destfile in which the FZ.CreateZip zips the file. FZ is FastZip which is from icsharpcode.net. They have c# examples, but that's greek to me. I'm trying to just learn VB!
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?
