Determine Current Username And Hardrive Letter On Visual Basic?
Apr 13, 2010Ok, basically, I need to know what the current hard drive letter that the current user is using, along with the user's name, followed by Music. When using the command prompt, we can use a simple code that is just %currentuser%Music but, I guess Visual Basic is a bit more complicated. Haha.
If you're curious why I need this, it is because I am making a program for my company to help backup our music and documents from their computers before we get new computers.
When using the code above in the command prompt in Windows, you would get something like: C:UsersRobertMusic, but this does not work for Visual Basic 2008.
My current operating system is Windows 7. I can supply more information if needed.

Mar 16, 2012Using the following code, a user inputs a date into a textbox control and then clicks a button.

I need to retrieve the UserId of the currently logged in user and insert it into table [rms_Report]. I need this to occur after the new record is inserted, but obviously before the response.redirect. I know how to retrieve the UserId, but I'm not sure how to incorporate into the other code.

Security - Storing Windows Username + Password
Jan 6, 2011I'm writing a backup program for personal (for the moment at least) use.
For some directories (network directories / protected directories) credentials are needed to access them.
I can setup different jobs in the program to run at specific times.
These jobs are stored in an XML file.
I want to also store the usernames and passwords which the jobs will need.
What and where would be the best way to store these?
Changing permissions on the directories is not an option.

Now i called this function on the button click of my login form and passed the values of username and password textboxes as parameters to it. But the problem arising is that it is logging in by simply clicking the button irrespective of what is entered in the username and password textboxes.
I think this is because ds.Tables.Count is never 0(whether the username and password match or not) Use code tags when posting your code. Code tags are used like so =>
