For some reason I can copy a file from a OFD box from anywhere other than my desktop.Could it be because I'm using the shell command and the file path contains spaces?I've declared the filepath as a variable. I know in a batch file you have to enclose names with spaces in "".

I am using vb.net 2003 and an Access database connected via Jet 4.0 OleDb. I have identified the location of my database using a relative path with [code]My program was working fine and I began making some cosmetic changes.I thought it would be a nice touch to add a PictureBox on the first form and allow the user to select the image that he would like to see when running the program.I added a menu item to "change the picture" and on a form added an OpenFile Dialog. I added code to capture the location of the selected file and used it to identify the image to be shown.I included a table in my database to store the file name and path which is loaded when the program starts.This all worked fine. I could change from picture to picture and the image would be updated each time in the picture box and in the database. I could access the database and perform all of the functions of the program.
That is as long as the image files that I selected were located in program startup directory. If I selected an image with the openfile dialog which was located else where then I could no longer contect to the database. I receive an "unhandled exceptions error". Below is the openfle code:[code]Can anyone help me with the proper way to get set up the open file dialog so that the results do not conflict with my database connection, or re-establish the connection?[code]

Is my pseudo code correct?

I am using vb.net 2003. In my program, the user can use an openfile dialog box to locate the address of a image and use it to change the display. The name and path of the image is saved in a database. This image is then loaded upon startup. If the image is located in the start-up directory the image change and saving to the database works great. But if the image is located some where else the image change occurs, but the path of the database has changed to the location of the image. Since the database is not located there, I get an unhandle exception error. What is the code to redirect the program to my startup path?
I am unable to select a .ZIP folder with either the FolderBrowserDialog (FBD) or the OpenFileDialog (OFD). First off the FBD does not show any .ZIP folders when using it and the OFD does show .ZIP folders but I am not sure how to handle it's path. My question would be how can I handle the OFDs ".SelectedPath"??? I could easily obtain that info with the FBD "FolderBrowserDialog1.SelectedPath", but it does not allow the selection of .ZIP folders.. So now I am trying to do the same thing with the OFD but there isn't any code for obtaining the ".SelectedPath". Here's some code that shows what I am trying to do:
Private sourcePath As String Private destPath As String With OpenFileDialog1
How to change the database connection by using openfiledilog in windows forms?

I am attempting to write a playlist for my media player which is already built. I have found a way to build a playlist for it but it would be helpful if I could save the contents of TextBox1 to a text file without using the save as. I am trying to get over a user inputting a file name for the finished text file so is it possible to write the file c: est.txt without using the save as dialog? I have found that I can use a vbs program file which creates a playlist in a folder. I save the vbs file text to the textbox then save it as a vbs file in the playlist directory, then execute the finished file to make the playlist.
I have researched the net, youtube, and the msdn DB, and still can not find the working answer I am looking for. I would like someone to show me how you would save the contents of "Listbox1" to a .txt file using the "Save As" Option. I know how to hardcode a savepoint in, but since there will be multiple users I would like the option to be up to the end-user.

My question is simple (the answer may not be...), What I am looking for is a way to save a file as an encrypted file (so know one can open it except in visual basic or a way to save it with a unique ending that only visual basic will recognize. I will also need to know of a way to open or load the file to.
This is going to be used in a game I am working on (and yes...I know visual basic isn't really meant for games, but it is coming together pretty well). I was originally going to have it save as a text file, but then everyone could open, read it and even change there stats. That is what this file will contain, the stats for their character, and when they load it, it will place the values into the correct spot.
I am a partial beginner or intermediate coder, I can understand code, I just don't know all there is, like saving and loading, and this is probably a little harder.
I have a website written in .net 4. I'd like to include a save button on one the pages that will save the webpage as a mht file. This way the user can save the page as a mht file type on his/her desktop without have to use the browser toolbar.

This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt.
