Handle A Duplicate File While Placing A Same File Existing Folder In C#.net
Jan 24, 2012
here i am reading files from one root folder and after reading that we are moving that particular file Success folder and taking a copy of that in to back up folder normal
while reading file i will check file naming convention by targeting backup folder if suppose it was exists in backup folder then i m moving the file to duplicate folder
my problem if suppose again same file came to process this file already existed in duplicate folder how do send the file in to duplicate folder, unfornately i dint have any property as file rename
If File.Exists(Swift_Backup + "" + Path.GetFileName(CBFile)) Then
' File.Move(CBFile, Swift_Duplicate + "\" + Path.GetFileName(CBFile)) 'DUPLICATE FOLDER'
I have a console application. I get the console application's folder path via this code:
dim Folder as string Folder = System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly.Location)
And I need to create a new file with this name Key.txt in the same folder as the console application. Because this file name is rather normal and there is possible duplicate in that folder. How do I prevent duplicate file name while still using simple name for that file?
I have a workbook (Workbook1) that runs through some steps using visual basic, which ends up opening another workbook Workbook2). Once Workbook 2 is opened, I need to copy a section of data from it, into Workbook1 int a specific worksheet. I was able to do this by recording a macro, but the challange is, the name of Workbook 1, and Workbook 2, will vary by User. When I created the macro it uses the files as they are currently named. The section of code is below.
I made a file that has many URLs of sites and I want to make each line of the file in a different place on the form. My current code places all the text in one specified place, but I want to break it up in segments and place each segment in different places in the form. [code]
Im trying to read a text file line by line and place each line in a separate Combobox. right now with my code i can only get it to print lines in separate message boxes.
The text file (test2.txt) contains 1, 2, 3,
[Code].....
if i replace the MsgBox code with Combobox1.text = (strArr(count)) i get nothing.
I have a csv file that needs to be automatically updated on a daily basis. I am writing a vb.net app to accomplish this. However, Im having issues with the entire process.I need to be able to read in a csv file, manipulate the data and then update the existing file. I have dabbled with using the Excel objects but I need some assistance.
When i try to save a file with the same name as the existing file the message box pops up asking me if i want to replace the existing file. When i click yes the program crashes and this message come up An unhandled exception of type 'System.ArgumentException' occurred in system.drawing.dll.[code]
I wanted to give my user an option for "Start with Windows". When user check this option it will place a shortcut icon into Startup folder (not in registry). On Windows restart, it will load my app automatically.
I'm building a code editor app in VB.NET (Framework 4.0) and it opens all ".por" files into individual forms consisting of a MenuBar and TextBox (multi-line).Currently I have 20 forms (all duplicates of the first on I designed) and if there are say 4 ".por" files in a directory, the first four will open up while the others hide.
I think it would be far more efficient by coding a new form For each item in form1's ListView...but I want the next so many to be a copy of the first form I designed since I spent a good bit on it.
I have a simple database with our customers data. I'm using access database, dataset, and a datagridview. So when I selected a row, I want to make a new row with datas from selected row. Here is my code:
I want to create a new file from the file that i open using openfile dialog.The name of the file.. that i opend is JR00316-50Mil_WYW.ERR but the name of the file that im going to create is JR00316-TP-LOC.drl.
Here's my code: System.IO.File.Move(Form6.OpenFileDialog1.FileName, "Temp") I'm trying to make it so that the program copies the file that you select in the OpenFileDialog and moves it into the "Temp" folder. It gives me an error saying: Cannot create file when file already exists.
I am developing an application that Monitors a specific folder for file changes such as modify deletion, update, etc. The only problem I have is , the application doesn't fire up File events.
what im trying to do and what i have done so far is probably a little backwards not sure sure how to id it any other way.when the user generates an error because a particular file doenst exist ive got my dialoge box to generate an .txt file for each file it errors on, so that the administrator can check and update missing files as an when - shouldnt be many files missing in the first place, should just be new product ranges or item just launched.what im stuck on is:
1. is there a better way
2. how do i open a .txt file and add the extra lines to it, so i re use the file but keeping the previous data.
I'm currently working on a script that uses an open file dialog to select a file and then send it to another folder.The open file dialog works fine, and I can store the filename/location fine in a variable. What I want to know is how to copy a user-defined file to a set directory. All of the stuff I've found requires you to know what the filename of the thing you're moving is.
I want to make a very simple program that remove duplicate domain name from a txt file. First, it must have a Open file Button so that it can load list of url to Listbox.
So, the URLs will be loaded into listbox. Then It has 2 more button Start and Save button Lastly one counter to calculate how many URL in that listbox
So example.. let say I have a txt file which contains URLs
[URL]
I open this txt file and loaded it into listbox (can scroll)
Then when I press start button, it will delete the URL that has same domain name. so the output will look like this
[URL]
Then I can save the URL from listbox to my disc drive as text file
I have a program that reads a 3rd party .txt file using OleDB into a DataTable When it reads it, its creating a column alias name, and works fine.
gives the user the ability to save a record to the .txt file by using an OleDb command statement and inserting a record into the DataTable then I re-write the file using stream writer because my understanding is you can NOT write directly into the .txt file.
I have created the program to read column postion rather then name since some data providers call columns different names, but I havent encountered a provider using the same name for 2 different columns.
Private Sub Button21_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button21.Click
If TextBox11.Text = "" Then Exit Sub MkDir(Dir1.Path + "" + TextBox11.Text) MsgBox("Folder Created:") TextBox11.Text = ""
End Subok now the file i have is from my.resources.test1 put this file into the folder that wascreated after mkdir line of code i have tried differnt ways of doing it but dose not work. it seams that this whould be so easy i dont if its me getting a mind block or something
I am writing a program to do backups and it will have syncing capabilities. It will be similar to Microsoft's SyncToy but it will have much more flexibility and "group" backup options etc.I am using VB.Net 2010 to write the program. The problem I need help with is the efficient comparing of a source file to the destination file when the only difference between a file is the name. (Working on the "Contribute" method of syncing a folder")In other words if I have a backup folder with a bunch of backed up files and folders from a master source folder and I change the name of one of the files in the master folder, but do nothing else to it, how can I tell that the renamed file is the same as the original named file in the destination folder. In this scenario I would want to rename the destination file to the new name it was given in the master folder instead of just copying the renamed file to the back up folder and ending up with duplicate files of different names needlessly.
I am working on a program using VB.Net 2010 which will enable me to setup groups of files & folders for back up with syncing capabilities etc. I have a concept program which is based on some sample code I found out in one of the VB.Net forums. I have modified it from a command line based program to a form based program. At the moment I consider this code to be a "concept" program which once I have the various copy/sync routines developed and debugged will be integrated in to another program I wrote for creating "Back Up" groups to automate the process. There are some 3rd party programs that do similar things that I want to do such as Microsofts Sync Toy, but none of them offer the grouping and exclusions options that I am going to program in to this backup/sync program.
So here is my problem, I have the included code taking two folders, a source and a destination, and copying everything from the source to the destination. It will skip over any unchanged files/folders and will delete anything found in the destination folder that is not found in the source folder and it will update all files in the destination folder that have a newer version in the source folder. In other words it will mirror image the source to the destination but will be smart enough not to copy unchanged items from the source to the destination thereby saving a lot of time. The sync part of the program is working fine, the displaying of the progress and results is not.
When I right click a file folder, I get an option called Explore on my pop-up menu. It lets me do this for zipped records also. I want to be able to do this programmatically in my Visual Basic program. How do I explore a file folder and expose its contents in a Listbox. How can I do this for a zipped file? If a folder is zipped and contains a list of files in it, can I go into the file and delete the file without having to unzip the folder. Today, I was able to cut files out of a zipped file and paste the individual files somewhere else. Can I do this programmatically?
The first problem i am having is locating a file in a folder, i am using FolderBrowserDialog to select the working folder but the program needs to be able to detect if it is a Windows XP SP3 source. The File i want to detect is WIN51IP.Sp3 and after hours of searching and trying different methods i am still no closer.below is the first part of the code, the browse folder part.
