Compare List To File Names?
Jan 12, 2011So in my Textbox I have a list of (folder) names, such as:
Folder1
Folder2
Folder3
I want to compare THAT list to another folder somewhere in someones documents (no specific folder). So let's say we compare it to the 'Arts' folder, which contain these folders inside:
Folder1
Folder2
I want to put all of those folder names in the Art folder into a list. And then I want to compare the folder names in my Textbox to the folder names in the Arts folder, and Folder3 is missing in the Art folder, so I want the textbox to contain:
Folder3
...to tell you that you are missing Folder 3 in your Art folder.
Open Directories To Compare Directory / File Names And Other Properties?
Aug 16, 2010I have several groups of files with idential names, but the files inside may or may not have identcal names, and may differ only in the size or date stamp. I want to combine them to save all unique directory names, and unique file names, and if the date/sizes are unique, then add some number on the end of the file name to make them unique as well. Only idential file sizes and names and dates will be discarded. How do you open directories to compare directory/file names and other properties?
View 8 RepliesParse Names In Strings
Jun 11, 2011I'm currently taking a class in VB 2008, with that said I am working with strings and had a quick question. I need to add code to parse the name when the user enters a name and clicks the Parse Name button, this code should work whether the user enters a first, middle, and last name or just a first and last name, before I get decimated by everyone, I am not asking anyone to do my homework because I already have a working solution to this, my question is to see if there is a "cleaner" or more "efficient" way to code this.

Parse Variable Names And Operate From String?
Jun 10, 2011I'm using a Microsoft Word form template to create objects in a form programatically, so depending on the information read by the program from the template.
So, I've got some fields where I store formula data for the form, in which I specify that the value for that field is obtained by multiplying other fields in the template. So I store in the string something like this:
"Text1.Text * Text2.Text"
So I need to convert these string values into variable calls to actually operate these values.
Extract Specific Texts From Parse Given Header Names
Feb 6, 2010I have a parse from Wikipedia saved in a text file in the following form: The town itself is situated to the south-east of the rock, and overlooks the Palaia Monemvasia bay. A small hamlet with about 10 houses lies to the northwest.The founding of the town and fortress of Monemvassia most probably occurred in the 6th century AD. The town was founded in 583 by people seeking refuge from the [[Slavic peoples|Slavic]] and the [[Eurasian Avars|Avaric]] invasion of Greece. From the 10th century AD, the town developed into an important trade and maritime centre. The fortress withstood the [[Arab]] and [[Normans|Norman]] invasions and conquests in 1147. Cornfields that fed up to 30 men were grown inside the fortress.What I need to do is to extract specific texts from the parse given the header names. For example, if I type in a textbot Geography I need ONLY the geography text returned.

Compare Every Record In Excel File And Save To Database Table?
Nov 15, 2011My query is i want to save record from an excel sheet to my Database Table.
But i dont want to insert the Excel sheet as a whole rather i want to insert the record in my database table Row wise.Inserting the records is not the only thing but my major issue is i want to check and compare the Primary Key column of my Table with the Column in my Excel.
Suppose Table1 is my Sql Database Table,and RegistrationNo is the Primary Key Column.Similarly there is also a column of Registration Number in my Excel Sheet.
Now before inserting each record the RegistrationNo column should be compared.If the a registrationNo in the excel sheet say RegistrationNo 112 is already present in the table then it should not Insert the record and if its not present then it should insert.
Also the other issue is the number of columns in my Database table are more than the number of columns in my excel Sheet.So the columns that are not present in the excel sheet should be set to NULL while inserting the record in the Table.
VS 2008 Setting A Primary Key And Changing The Names Of Some Fields On Database File?
Aug 5, 2011Lets say we have an Access file in a well known path (i.e. "C:MyFolderMyFile.mdb"). That file does not have a primary key set on the table we are interested in . Is it possible to set one of the fields as a primary key (for example the "ID" field , which is also an AutoNumber data) ? And one more thing : I'd like to change the name of a field on that table . For example , lets say there is a field called "My Field 1" (note the space characters) and we want it to be renamed as "My_Field_1" . If it's possible , I'd like both these changes to be permanent in the data base file itself , not just in the imported DataSet ,

Way To Parse Information From Email To Database
Nov 15, 2011I have an email account that receives various requests to get free materials, for different items. These emails will usually contain name, item, quantity of item, address, state, zip. What makes it difficult is that all the emails are different, unstructured, and the data is usually buried in the emails, i.e. a forwarded email.I want a way to get all the information and parse it into a ms sql database.I know there are products that would work really well like url... but at work we can't afford this.I was thinking of creating a webservice that would input mail data posted from a third party site like cloudmail.com into a secondary website and then maybe creating a ruby script that would crawl the messages and extract addresses, etc. Anyone know of a good, simple alternative, a custom script in ruby, php, vb.net or possibly an open source solution?

May 22, 2010I have a directory full of .txt comma delimited files arranged as shown below.

I want to only extract and import the data starting BELOW the 'Feat. Type,Feat. Name, etc' line.
These are stored in a mynetworkdirectorystats folder on my network drive. Ideally I will be able to add functionality that will make the software/script know not to re-add the file to the database once it has already done so as well.

Parse Value From Database Datareader And Handle Possible NULL Value?
Feb 16, 2011I have run into this problem a few times and have never come up with a good answer. I figure others must have dealt with this already.I have a datareader returned from the database and I want to use the values therein however values may or may not contain NULL. I would like to have a unction that takes in the value from the datareader and returns the value if it is not NULL and blank space if it is NULL.The problem I have is that the data-type of the variable I am testing is variable. It can be a String, and Integer or a DateTime. Can anyone suggest a simple way to test the value and then return the original value (as same data-type if possible) or something else if it is NULL

File I/O And Registry :: File System Object Does Not Allow Spaces In File Names
Feb 3, 2010I am working on a VB Console Application that takes an Autocad drawing type DWG and converts it to a PDF using a shell command that calls a third party application. In this case, acmecadconverter.exe from www.dwgtool.com. Then the PDF that is created needs a unique watermark, so I call a second application for that called pdftk.exe from www.accesspdf.com/pdftk/.
Everything works as intended, except when I try file names that contain spaces. The file system object does not tolerate spaces in the drawing file name. For instance, the following command gives me a system.io.filenotfoundexception...
My.Computer.FileSystem.RenameFile("Test Flowchart1.dwg", "Test~Flowchart1.dwg")

VersionID is a bigint primary key, version is a ntext column that holds the current version... I want to be able to pick the row that has the highest version number, but version could be in this format:
