Copy Files From A List Of Filenames?
Apr 9, 2011I am sure this is a simple question to the more advanced, however, to the less advanced I am having a problem. I have to come up with a quick program (that works) for my job (I am a systems admin) that will either look in a database or excel sheet (which ever is easier) and find copy files from one directory to another. I know how to move, copy and delete, however, I need it to look for the specific filename.

View 2 RepliesForm Not Brought To Front When Dragged
Apr 11, 2012I have created a list form that gets attached to a main form in VB.NET. This all works fine except that when the main form gets activated, I need the list to be brought to the front as well. I have put in a simple IF function to do this but when I added these lines of code, the main form, as well as the list form now do not get brought to the front until you let go of the mouse button. Obviously this means that if you drag the form, it stays at the back until you let go of the mouse button.
The code that I added is below:
If CRL.Visible = True Then
CRL.BringToFront()
End If
CRL is the list form.
If I comment out this code again, the main form get brought to the front while dragging but obviously the list form does not. The main form as well as the list form are MDI children.

View 1 RepliesHandle Text Dragged Onto A Button To Open A New Form?
Jul 1, 2010I want to achieve the following:
The user drags text from any open window not related to my application ( like firefox or word, for example) onto button1 on form1 in my application. when he/she does that, a new form (called form2 that contains a richtextbox) will open and the dragged text is directly copied (or inserted) into the richtextbox of the new form. button1 has allowdrop set to true. Beyond that I don't know how to proceed.
I tried:
e.effects = DragDropEffects.Copy
But it seems it is not enough.
Save The Last Dragged Button On The Form And Also Detect The Name Of The Last Clicked Button?
Sep 5, 2009I have already done the creation of button and the dragging of button at runtime already.But now i need to know how do i save the last dragged button on the form and also detect the name of the last clicked button.so lets say i now drag a button to coordinates 25,254. so when i exit the form and the next time i launch it, the button will still be at 25,254. and this one will go on for the number of button i created like 100. so when i launch the form the 100 button will be at the exact position where i last saved them.the second part is lets say i created button1 and button2 on the form in runtime. so when i clicked the first button, it should display button1. and if i clicked on button 2, it should say button2. same goes for like 100buttons.

View 5 RepliesRetrieving What Image Has Been Dragged To A Picturerbox?
May 26, 2010I�m having trouble with the picturbox control, my problem in its basic form is:I have a picture Box array consisting of 9 picture boxes each with a different image in loaded at run time these are names 0.jpg to 8.jpg I then have 2 more picture Boxes named ansOne and ansTwo. I have made it so you can drag the images of these numbers to either of these picture Boxes It this next part I�m having trouble with:
I then want to have thoughs images represent a sum so when a button is clicked it adds or multiplies thoughs images together but as numbers ("badly put I know ")I am very unshore of where to start. After the image has been dragged how would I know what image has been dragged and turn that in to its integer equilivent?I had thought of using split string or something similar to just get the number before the .jpg so tried picAnsOne.imageLocation but that throghs a null reference And that�s as far as I have got.
VS 2010 File Dragged Onto Listbox?
Mar 4, 2011I'm working on a music player (I'm a beginner), I've gotten the basics down but I've been stuck on something for the last few days.
I'm wanting to have a listbox that (only) music files can be dragged onto, once they are dragged onto it I want the listbox to add it as an item on that listbox. So basically, I'm wondering how to drag items onto listboxes, restrict that to only music files (specifically .wav & .mp3) and have that dragged item be added to the listbox.
PS. I'm making this media player myself, without WMP or DirectSound (I believe it's called).

View 3 RepliesVisual Studio 2010 - .net Application Works With Files Dragged Onto The Exe But Crashes If There's A Space In The File's Path?
Jun 15, 2011I'm developing an application in vb.net. You drag any type of file onto the exe, and a window pops up with some options for the file, then it saves the file to a different location, works some SQL magic, etc. It works great for the most part. The only issue I've found is that if the path of the file contains any spaces, the application will crash immediately with the error window:[URl]..I'm using: Private filename as String = Command$ This is located right inside my form's class declaration, not within a sub/function.Without this line, my program runs fine (although useless, without accessing the file).I've also tried (I think this was it, I don't have the code with me at the moment): Private filename as String = Environment.CommandLine So, in vb.net, is there a way to drag a file onto an exe and use that path name, even if there are spaces in the path name?
