View 3 RepliesI have developing a program on one computer and when I try to move it to another computer running vb2008 express, I always get an error message saying "the project file (directory path, project name.vbjproj) has been moved, renamed or is not on your computer." The files etc. are in the same folders as other projects that run properly. Can't figure out how to correct the path etc. or figure out why the message as the files are where they should be.Cancel the question. I found my problem and it was me that caused it.

I am having trouble opening my vb.net 2005 project from a backed up copy on a hard drive. The original files are on my old XP computer which I no longer have access to. I am trying to open the project in vb.net 2010 on Win7. I have converted the project to vb.net 2010 and when I open the file, nothing shows up, when I try to open them, it tells me the form isn't found in the project directory because it's been moved or deleted. I know that the software on the hard drive didn't back up .exe files, I'm not sure if it did back up other kinds of files. I don't want to restart the project because I've spent over a year on it and have written over 3000 lines of code on it.

I am using Process.Start to run a command line application. The log for the app is automatically saved in a predefined location that I can not change. Also, I can not specify the name of the log.I need the log to go to a specific directory and the be renamed. I thought I could do it this way:[code]When I run the code, it tells me that it can't fin the file "Test2.txt". When I isolate the code and only run the first part, it moves the file to the second directory just fine. It only errors on the RenameFile line.

is there any way to move a contact or apointment item from a file (ie C: est) to a MAPI folder? The way I have it set up now I can save all the items from the outlook MAPI folder into the file, but I can't retrieve them. I've tried my.computer. filesystem. copyfile, but there seems to be no way of feeding it the mapi folder as a string it can understand. I've tried to see if I could open the .msg from the file as any format I could think of, and then saving it. No luck there. I've searched extensively, too, though I'm not sure I was using the correct terms.
My end goal is to make a folder on a shared drive that other users can go to and look at a list of contacts and or calendar items, then possibly upload them into their own contacts/calendars. I've even tried taking all the relevent data out of them and putting it into a text file, then uploading it to outlook. I got that working well enough, but it seems so convoluted, and is far from robust. It seems like it should be easy to just copy them over, since you can just click and drag them on the UI, but I haven't had any luck
Is it possible in VB.NET to get the directory of a file copied/moved to a removable storage device?
For example, I have msword document on my desktop and move it to my storage device. A dialog box will appear or anything that will show the directory of the document.
The idea is whenever you move a file into the specific device, it will automatically processed. I will be using this to compress a file automatically when it is moved or copied to the storage device.

View 1 RepliesBasically what I want is when a person clicks on an Item that ends in "Mp3" in Listview1 to then Create that same File on Listview2 So far It will create the File, not show its name. and it gives the directory, but not all the way.
Heres the Code for Moving the file to listview2.
If ListView1.FocusedItem.Name.EndsWith(".mp3") Then
ListView2.Items.Add(ListView1.FocusedItem.Name.ToString, 4)
'Add SubItem Information.
Dim li As New ListViewItem
li.ImageIndex = 4
[Code] .....
I wont get anything to pop out on Listview2, even if I click anything on listview1. I have to group (left click and hold, and go over multiple items.) And if I am lucky I will get some stuff on Listview2. I got 1 item to move to listview2 but it has no name (it does not appear). Now if we move the scroll bar to the right, we will see another error, (next picture). The Directory Does not end with the Music's Name.mp3. And It does not even end in the same directory as the textbox on the bottom right corner?
I am writing a program to manage some of my files. I already know when I want to send a file to the recycle bin, so I don't need the system to prompt me each time. How do I tell it to back Off, and just do it?

View 14 RepliesI'm creating this VB 2008 application and I want to make it into a CD so it can be installed in other computers. Problem is, after I create the setup and start it even from the computer that created the application in the first place, it gives me the "unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click Continue, the application will wignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit, the application will close immediately." and "The following file could not be found: "C:UsersMyNameAppDataLocalApps2.0Data\VHMGGXM7.8K8..." errors.
Since my first "form" is a login system, I am not sure if this problem appears because of the database search, or just the transition between forms (unlikely, I guess, since there is sort of an introductory video before the login system which uses the same logic to transition between forms)... So I tried moving the access database to a different path and I wanted to know how to tell the program (through v.b.) that the database is now in "this path" without having to re-connect and create a new DataSet, which will make me have to start the whole project again. I set up the whole project in Program Files (a place all computers must have). The video before the login system works fine, but I can't really find any other problem.
I'm making a quiz and I've got a set of questions and answers being loading into two different arrays, the idea is to answer a question with a choice of 4 buttons, so on a button click the answers checks to see if it is correct and moves along to the next question (while doing this the questions and answers change)However, my problem is that i've set up an audio player as the questions are for example "what is the sound?" and there is a preview button which uses the audio player to play the sound for the user.
Now everything moves with the array however, the sound still remains the same on every question after the quesiotn has been answered. So my set of answers move (when debugging, the sound array does move but the player doesn't seem to want to) with the array and i need the player to change to the specific array position which it is in as well.
Audio Player:
Dim answer = CorAnsList(qNum).sound
Dim answerPrev As String = My.Computer.FileSystem.CurrentDirectory & "sounds" & answer & ".wav"
Private Sub btnPrev_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnPre.Click

I am using iTextSharp with VB.Net to stamp images onto PDF documents. (Since this is not language specific I tagged for C#, too.)I have two applications using the process.The first uses the bytes from the memorystream to display the PDF documents online. This piece is working. The second uses the same function but instead saves the PDF to a file. This piece generates an invalid PDF.
I have seen some similar questions, but they are all creating a document initially and have a document object in the code. Their memory streams are corrupt from the outset. My code does not have a document object and my original memory stream opens fine.
Here is the place where I get the error: (I have to put the buffer from m into a new memory stream because the stamper in the fillPDF function defaults to closing the stream unless marked otherwise.)
Dim m As MemoryStream = PDFHelper.fillPDF(filename, Nothing, markers, "")
Dim m2 As New MemoryStream(m.GetBuffer, 0, m.GetBuffer.Length)
Dim f As FileStream = New FileStream("C: emp.pdf", FileMode.Create)
