Save Binary Data File To Cd?

Mar 21, 2008

I'm designing a very simple program that will need to save both data and photos to a cd but my code refuses to let me do it. Here is what I have:

FileOpen(1, "E:FileWithData.dat", OpenMode.Binary)
FilePut(1, AString, 10)

I keep getting an incorrect function at FileOpen

I saw some methds which take numerous lines of code but I like to keep my code very simple so I can easily tell what it does.

Searching Large Binary Files And Data Carving

Mar 12, 2011

I am trying to develop an application that will let me do the following

1) Be able to search to large binary files for a specific byte array (header) and to continue searching for another byte array (footer). Then i want it to copy the section of the binary file between these 2 locations to a specified file. Then the program is to continue searching for any other header/footers An example would be search a large file and carving out the jpgs it finds etc. This routine would have to be able to handle raw images of 20gb or more if needed.

What do you think what is faster:

1. writing 1000 records in a binary file on a server? or

2. passing the same 1000 records in a database on a server?

and

1. search a specific record in a binary file? or

2. search the same specific record in a database file?

C# - Write Binary Data "as Is" To Registry (visible Binary Data As String From Regedit Only)

Feb 23, 2011

I have been googling this and have not come along a working solution for an entire day. I don't know anything about binary data types (as I've never knowingly used them) and I'm trying to write a binary value that I see in the registry, to the registry. Now, all I see is the following [shown below]... and if I try to pass that as a string to the RegSetValueEx in the WinAPI and of course it errors out...

I do not know what 'numbers' I need to pass into the lpData As Any, argument of RegSetValueEx (i tried a bit array) in order for it to come out as the following [shown below] in the regedit. I really have no idea, and my tests to place random numbers in the bit array just produce corresponding random "figures" as visible in regedit that I do not understand how to 'tie' them together logically. here is the culprit!

Getting An Other File Extension As Default Instead Of All Files As Default Extension?

Jun 25, 2009

I am using VB 08 running an openfiledialogue wanting to get the result of the GDS file (*.gds) to be the default extension at the drop down menu instead of All file when the openfiledialogue box opens.

I coded it with:

OpenFileDialogue.Filter = "GDS File(*.gds)|*.gds|All files|*.*"

but the results i get in the open file dialogue box remains as all files being in the drop down menu as the default file extension. How to i set it to ".gds" format?

Save Data To Random Access Files?

Sep 6, 2010

how do you save data stored in an array of records (structure) to a text file using StreamWriter? I currently have

Private Sub btnSaveToFile_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnSaveToFile.Click
Dim sw As New StreamWriter(New FileStream("EmployeeDetails.txt", FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write))
For Each record As EmployeeType In employees

[code]....

but it doesn't work. My array is fixed and currently has 3 elements (for testing purposes). If I enter two records and add these to the structure I get the following data saved to the text file:

123,helen,66000
879,john,89975
0,,0

How do I stop unused elements of the array being included when writing to file? Should I use a dynamic array instead and if yes, how do you use dynamic arrays with structures?

Process Files By Extension??

Sep 14, 2010

I have a program that processes files in a special subdirectory and the program processes the files based upon the "Type", i.e., "Text Document". If an application, such as a text editor, installed onto the system, the "Type" may change to suit that application. For example, I recently had one change the type from "TXT File" to "UltraEdit Document (.txt}". Yes, the squirrely brace was on the end, don't know why. Well, after this app was installed, my program found no files of "TXT File" type to process even though the subdirectory was full of filename.txt files.

So, how can I get the code to look at the file extension, not the Type? A few lines of the code are shown:
Private fsFile As Scripting.File

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
' Code Here to Prepare the CodeASX ...

How To Save Binary File From SQL Server

Sep 11, 2010

I'm trying to save a binary file stored in a SQL database with a SaveDialog, the function RetrieveFile retrieves the specified file from the database as a Byte array, here's what I have so far:

Private Shared Function RetrieveFile(ByVal filename As String) As Byte()
Dim connection As New SqlConnection("Data Source=SERVERSQL2008;Initial Catalog=NorthPole;Integrated Security=True")
Dim command As New SqlCommand("SELECT pcfFile FROM Items WHERE pcfFileName=@Filename", connection)
command.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Filename", filename)
connection.Open()
[Code] .....

Files are saved as "SqlDbType.VarBinary" within the database.
I get: "Index was outside the bounds of the array." on:
Dim retrievedBytes As Long = reader.GetBytes(1, startIndex, buffer, 0, ChunkSize)
The MemoryStream appears to not be retrieving the data yet the SQL syntax is correct.

Replace Content In PDF And Save Binary?

Aug 6, 2011

I need to add some information to a PDF (Trim Box proporties, actually replace Media Box proporties with Media Box and Trim Box proporties), and I dont have the support in my PDF-motor. So I found out that I can use Notepad++ to open the PDF as a text file and simply add the Trim Box properties as a string and save it. Now I want to do it automatically with vb.net. When I use Stream Reader/Writer the PDF gets destroyed and loses information (Stream Reader dont read all the NUL, SOH, STX etc. I guess). I tried to read the PDF using ReadAllBytes/WriteAllBytes and then it works good, but then I don't know how to replace "Media Box ..." with "Media Box.Trim Box.". I try to use IndexOf but I can only search for single Byte not the whole string. I'm not good in binary and thats perhaps the problem :-). Does anyone have a better way doing it or how do I search for my string "Media Box" in binary?

i have been trying to search a specified directory and all sub directories for all files that have the specified file extension. However the inbuilt command is useless as it errors up and dies if you dont have access to a directory.

Private Function dirSearch(ByVal path As String, Optional ByVal searchpattern As String = ".exe") As String()
Dim di As New DirectoryInfo(path)
Dim fi As FileInfo

[code]......

However i get an "System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object." when i try to access the data stored inside the filelist string array.
