Need Code for Save in my Text Editor. I want to save without the save dialog popup.
I have received help from Formlesstree4 on placing the name in the title of my form.
I don't want to save as just want to save if i have already saved the file and I am still working in it.
I am wanting to find out how to use the Win32 hooks to allow me to add extra save locations to the save and open dialog box so as to allow as an option for files to be saved directly to a database rather than a file system.I have tried looking online but can't find anything remotely usable for this, the only data on hooks that I can find involves Window operation hooks, mouse, leyboard, and shell hooks, nothing to do with files.

View 5 RepliesI am trying to save multiple text files using a save dialog.
I can save one textbox
SaveFileDialog1.ShowDialog()
Dim File As System.IO.File
Dim Write As System.IO.StreamWriter
Write = File.CreateText(SaveFileDialog1.FileName)
Write.WriteLine(TextBox1.Text)
Write.Close()
but I don't know how to save multiple textboxes and richtext boxes. Would I have to use a screenwriter for this?

I have an applicaiton that I wrote that converts PDFs into TIFFS using the MODI driver and it works fine except for one part. Once I use Adobe to print out the PDF to the (MODI) driver, I get a "Save As" popup. The name of the file is correct and all I need to do is to click save. Problem is that I do not want the "Save As" to appear at all. Is there a way to prevent this window from coming up and just save it to default location? I need to take my application code and make it into a windows service, so having this popup really makes it hard.

View 1 RepliesI 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.

View 14 RepliesI have a button on my form and when clicked I want to show the save dialog box but I want to have a filter so the file saved can only be .txt also I want to change the default location of the save as dialog, is this possible?
So far I have the following
Dim filesaveas As New SaveFileDialog
filesaveas.Filter = "Text Files|*.txt"
filesaveas.Filter = "C:\Test\"
I would like to modify SaveFileDialog to instead save a new directory (which will contain new files automatically generated for the user based on the name of the directory). I can produce the necessary code to carry out the intended functionality, but I want the dialog to prompt for a 'folder name' instead of 'file name' and to not display 'save as type'. Is this possible? Is there a better solution for a create new folder/directory dialog? I know about folderbrowsedialog, but I need to force the user to name a new directory and identify the location

When I have XElement.Save("Name.xml") it saves the XML file in the same directory as the EXE. What I am trying to do is allow the user so select the location of the XML.
