View 7 RepliesI am developing an Excel workbook at work and I've got a problem. I'd like to save information entered in the workbook and save it in another one (called List, for example purposes), using a macro. The problem is that the file in which I want to save the information is located on a server. When people open List.xls, it's Read Only. So, when my macro executes, it opens a Read Only workbook...I'd like to do "Open As", just like you could do by right-clicking on any file in Windows XP. The result would be that the macro would log on as administrator only to open List.xls, write in it and save it under the same name.

I have an app that reads the file attribute to determine if it is normal, readonly or archive. Nowhere can I find the numerical values that equate to normal, readonly or archive, however I have debugged & found that archive is 32. The files on the cd are 33, what type of attribute is this and where is a list of all numerical values that equate to a file attributes type?

View 11 RepliesI am trying to read through a bunch of sub directories checking to see if the archive bit is set on any file and if so then I intend to create a zip file of the entire folder as a backup copy and then I need to reset the archive bit.
The problem is that I do not want to change any other attributes that may be set and for some reason I do not see a way to retain these while clearing the archive bit.
I am also not sure if the method I am using for checking the archive bit will work correctly in cases where the file is also read only or hidden or other such attribute.
Let say, a file has the following attributes: ReadOnly, Hidden, Archived, System.
How can I remove only one Attribute? (for example ReadOnly)[code]...
I've been linking to an external config file using <appSettings file="blah"> since VS 2003. I just created my first 2010 project, and I get no data from my file, nor any error. [edit]This functionality works as expected when I point to 3.5 framework.Another note, if I copy the other config to the debug directory and reference it by file name it works. When I use the UNC path it doesn't. The UNC path has worked for many of my past projects. Maybe it's a 4.0 security setting somewhere?
View 2 RepliesI have an application using Visual Basic 2010 Express. Basically I load an XML file into a datagrid and then wish to modify it. Now the following code works fine:
Private Sub Modify_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Modify.Click
Dim da As New XmlDataDocument
da.Load(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Desktop) & "/events.xml")
Dim path1 As String = "/calendar/event/title[text()='" & DataGridView1.CurrentRow.Cells(0).Value.ToString & "']"
Dim path2 As String = "/calendar/event/text[text()='" & DataGridView1.CurrentRow.Cells(1).Value.ToString & "']"
[Code] .....
Now the modify button does what it is intended to do as far as load the "title" and the "text" elements into the text boxes. However I want to load the other attributes into the text box. I.E. date, timeStart, timeFinish etc. Also, the just of this is to be able to modify an xml file without going into the xml file using a text editor.

View 9 RepliesI have an XML configuration file to which I will occasionally add new elements and, for ease of reading outside of the application, I want to keep it sorted alphabetically - by the "key" attribute of the "add" elements.After a lot of trial and error - using code I've gleaned from here, there and everywhere - I've come up with the code below. It appears to work okay, but I'm only just starting to learn Linq to XML, so I'd like to know whether this is an appropriate method or if there is a better/ more efficient method I've missed. It just feels like I might be taking an unnecessary step in recreating the entire file element.
Dim newEx = cfgEx.<appSettings>(0)
newEx.Add(<add key=<%= sNewKey %> value=<%= sValue %>/>)
Dim sortEx = <configuration>[code]....
EDIT: I think I've worked out a better way to do this - without explicitly recreating all the parent tags in thesortExvariable:
Dim newEx = cfgEx.<appSettings>(0)
newEx.Add(<add key=<%= sNewKey %> value=<%= sValue %>/>)
Dim sortEx = From c In newEx.<add> Order By c.@key Select c
newEx.ReplaceAll(sortEx)
cfgEx.Save(sXmlConfigFile)
