Planning To Make A Program That Can Download Files From A Website To Put On An SD Card To Soft Mod

May 15, 2011

I am new to Visual Basic. I have Visual Basic 2010 Express. I am planning to make a program that can download files from a website to put on an SD Card to Soft Mod, or hack it. I want it so that the user clicks on a radio button based on what System Menu their Wii is running on. There is currently, System Menu 4.0 or less, System Menu 4.2, and System Menu 4.3.

They also have to choose a region from a List Box. The current options are:

Region U (Americas)
Region K (Korean)
Region J (Japanesse)
Region E (European)

I also want it so that the user can choose where to download the installation files for the Wii soft Mod.

I want to have a button that when the user clicks on it, a pop up asks them where they want to download the files to appear, once they choose a location, i want it to download a file based on what they chose and i also want it so that it tells them what to do with the files and where to put them.

Download Serveral Years Worth Of Files From A Website?

Oct 30, 2009

I need to download serveral years worth of files from a web site, the web site posts files daily in "Date".csv. How do I write the code in vb.net to get the string value for the dates? I know that you can do something like : Dim start date = #11/01/2009# and Dim end date= Now.

How do I get these values so I can incorportate them in a string? And then loop through each value.

It will need to start with the first date an download that file, then loop through all the dates downloading each file until it has reached the end date. I already have the code written to extract the info i need from the document and import into a sql server, my only issue is the date range string issue

Create A .net Program And Allow Visitors To A Website To Download This Program?

Nov 15, 2009

I am very very new to VB.NET and would like to ask a simple question. I want to create a vb.net program and allow visitors to a website to download this program. However, I prefer not to have visitors download a zip folder. I would like to have a program that just gives a prompt to save in a selected folder, once the saved file is selected it prompts the person to download, and then when finished prompts the person to run the program. The reason is twofold:

1. I don't like the extra step involved with unzipping the file. and 2. I don't like the visitors having to look for the "main" file program within the new downloaded folder. So is there any way to have just one file for others to download without having it in a zip folder?

Planning Folder Structure For Thousand Files?

Sep 7, 2011

The question: better a deep folder structure or less subfolder with thousands files?

The problem: I have a VB.NET program that generates around 2500 XML files per year (circa 100 KB per file).I have to store the files on a file server (Windows 7 or NAS).On the network there are around 30 PCs using that program.I am looking for the best way to plan the structure of the folders on the file server with the goal to have a good human-readable folders structure and at the same time a fast access to the file.In the past I made a similar program with the following structure:

fileserverPC1yearmonthsfile00001.xml

in other words a folder for each PC on the LAN
then a subfolder for the years
then a subfolder for the months[code].....

this solution would produce a clearer folder tree, but more files per folder.I do not know if this could be an issue in term of speed by file accessing with vb.net programs or other third hand application.

Writing A Program To Download A File From An Official Website Every Sunday?

Jul 9, 2011

Im writing a program to download a file from a official website every Sunday. The adress of this site keeps changing. Does anyone know how I can link to this address?

[URL]

I've highlighted the part of the adress that changes. As you can see, it's a date, but not nessesarily the current date. It could be yesterday, or the day before. I've tried something like this:

Dim link
link = "http:www.fiskeridir.no/content/download/4641/30774/version/254/file/Register-internett-*.xlsx"

This doesn't work.

File I/O And Registry :: AVI Header - Program To Download And Play AVI Files The Files Are Large In Size And Long Time Wise

Dec 11, 2011

I wrote a program to download and play AVI files the files are large in size and long time wise. I have the files playing as they are being downloaded but i can't see how long the file is or seek reliably. i was reading that the AVI headers are in the last 512kb of the AVI file *why would't they put it at the start* lol so my question is is there a way to download the last 512Kb of the file i'm downloading. i have the Bytes Read and Length of the file while its downlaoding i'm just not sure where to go from there, or how to do it atleast. If i had the length in time of the Avi file i could set the trackbar to be able to seek properly. or if someone has an idea how i could get the time of the video by using fps and some math i could prob do it that way too but idk how i would tell how i can find how many kb are in the fps i'm sure it changes so think that way is't going to be reliable. how to get the last 512kb would be the best option not sure if it can be done even.

Create A Planning Program By Using Own Controls?

May 12, 2011

I'm trying to create a planning program by using my own controls.I first make a control to create the entire field with a flow panel at the top for the header.Then below that flow panel I put a flowpanel for each row.Each flow panel in a row has four labels and one regular panel.The second control I make is one that creates a bar created from 2 pictureboxes and a panel. The panel is then variable based on the number of days it covers.

This control is then positioned in the regular panel of each row flow panel. (still with me??)I have not counted the amount of bar-controls that are put on the form, but there are a lot.and then I get the error: Error creating window handle.So I must be doing something wrong, but then how can one create a planning like panel with horizontal bars in different sizes depending of the amount of days.

VS 2010 : Make A Program That Registers And Account On A Website

Jan 2, 2010

i am trying to make a program that registers and account on a website?

WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementById("date_month").InnerText = ComboBox1.Text
WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementById("date_day").InnerText = ComboBox2.Text
WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementById("date_year").InnerText = TextBox1.Text

[code]....

1. When i inpute the month, it doesnt input it, it just makes the combobox on the website smaller for some reason

2. I cant get the email working because you must put your birhtday before it shows where to put your email, obviously fixing the first problem should fix this.

3. There are 2 radiobuttons on the website, for a boy and a girl and I have 2 radiobuttons in my form, however I have exactly no idea how to program it to change.

Flash Card Program - Type All The Words On A Text File And Have The Program Randomly Pull One Of Them

Feb 15, 2009

Anyway, I'm a teacher and am writing a program that simply shows kids a word on a flashcard. There are 2 buttons, 1 to read the word and 1 to go to a new work. There are going to be 300 words. Really I'm just testing it right here. What I want to know is should I be inputting all the words right into the code like I did with "hi" and "not 1" (Don't ask. those are just the 2 random words I picked to test this out with). OR is there a better way (maybe somehow to type all the words on a text file and have the program randomly pull one of them (I don't know how to do this).

Here is the code so far:

Public Class Form1
Dim word
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

Download A File From WebSite?

Apr 26, 2012

I have been looking for a method to download a file that is created by a .Net web site ( 3rd party so I can't control the download method ) and sent through the browser via response.writefile. The file is generated by the web page and then forced to the browser so I have to "walk" web site.

Browser Automation: I have tried to use AutoIT to automate the browser ( both IE and Firefox ) but ran into issues with each one. IE won't let me disable the download manager so I get popups and the Firefox component won't walk the DOM correctly to find the unnamed elements I need to access.

Web Browser Components: I also tried the GeckoFX component for VB.net but when you click the button it does not download the file. The WebBrowser control will download the file but still has all the popups that keep me from doing it with an unattended program.

Straight

The web site requires authorizaion and I can't get that to work either. I was able to login to Facebook with a userID and password but this site has not been co-operating.

httpWebRequest Try 1:
'Dim request As HttpWebRequest
'Dim response As HttpWebResponse = Nothing
