Make A Little Backup Program?
Jan 7, 2010
Is it possible to make a little backup program that can backup from one folder to another, is this much work? With a calender also that can be picked up so you can chose when the backup starts.
Im thinking about f.example 10 lines where you can chose where to backup from (different folderes) And one line where the backup shall be saved. All this with browse folder off course. And with a button backup now and a button backup from the date. A very little program with an easy use.

(VS.Net 2005/VB.Net)Why is it that VS.Net does not create LOCAL backup files of edits? Is there a way to make it do that?I accidentally overwrote a day's worth of changes by attempting to do a manual mergeoutside of VS.Net.Is there a way to make VS.Net create backup files of your changes each time you save?Delphi does it using an extension of .~pa for your source files and .~fm for your form files.This way, if your system crashes, which VS.Net is certainly going to do, you wouldn't lose the changes you made since your last save point.I know, I know, I shouldn't have been doing the merge outside of VS.Net but I had my reasons and now I[m paying the price.I just wished VS.Net was a little better IDE than it is because, frankly it sux. I am forever waitingfor something and not very productive using it. Hey, I'm getting good at watching paint dry because that is what developing in this tool seems like.

i have i problem when making some program to backup database sql server 2000. i have task to develop program with requirement like this:
1. this program must backup database from sql server 2000 (success).
2. this program must compress the backup to the smaller size (Not success,because the backup file is more than 3,9 Gb. i am using SharpZip Wrapper and not succes because the size exceeded.)
3.Copy the backup file or compress to another computer (Succes but take a long time because the size of file is more than 3,9 Gb. That's why I want compress the file.)
any one can give me solution for compress large file with size more than 3,9 Gb. This file will continue to grow in size,so i need compress it so i can copy more quickly?
or any one can reference some freeware can do the task?

I developed a program using Vb.Net that is data based enabled, it has a field for serial number etc. its working fine but the serial number failed to update when a record is deleted, its always keeps tracks of its formal numbering, even when the program is restarted, unless reinstalled.How do i also backup the data stored in such program.

I have my desktop app, bound to an access database. I want now to improve a button so the user can make a backup of the *.mdb file.So i used this
If FolderBrowserDialog1.ShowDialog = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
If FolderBrowserDialog1.SelectedPath <> "" Then
FileCopy("BDGRACIA.mdb", FolderBrowserDialog1.SelectedPath & "/BDgracia.mdb")
End If
End If
It works fine when i try the app from within Visual Studio. But when i install it it won�t find the database because it was installed elsewhere.Is there a way to control where the DB is installed and follow that route? Does this depend on the OS the app is installed? Or did I face the problem wrong and i should do something completely different with my button?

I 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!

before re-inventing the wheel, i want to ask you how i can do this best: I have a VB.Net application that uses a database connection to MS SQL Server 2005 (express version). There are users that input data with the application into the database lets say once to 2x an hour to once a minute. I want to do backups like this: Once a day or once a week (in the evening) a full backup, and whenever the program/user is idle for lets say 10 Minutes, i want to do an incremental backup (so that it does not take so long until he can work on after the backup).
There are no big security issues, just copying the backup data files to a network share / a different computer or server would be fine. i guess the average db size may be 300MB, but the daily increments about 1MB.

If e.CommandLine.Count > 0 Then
Dim IncomingCommand As String = e.CommandLine.Item(0).ToString
If IncomingCommand.Substring(0, 2) = "-1" Then
form1.close()
End If
End If
I am trying to make the program close if the -1 string is sent with the program. See my installer allows for me to run certain programs before it actually installs, but it doesn't shut down copies of the program itself. So I have a next startup instance set to shut the program down if the -1 is received. But if the program is not running it starts up instead. This is not desired. form1.close doesn't work. e.cancel = true doesn't work, etc etc. What can I do to make the program not start during this instance.
