Feb 19, 2012I'm running the following WMI script to get the associations between drive letters and physical drives on the system, but for some reason it omits CDROMs/DVD-ROMs. Can someone tell me how to get those as well?
Code:
ComputerName = "."

("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=Impersonate}!//" & ComputerName)

Finding Physical Drive Number Using Drive Letter?
Jun 16, 2009I have a program that allows the user to enter a drive letter into a text box. The program then takes the letter and find the physical drive number (i.e. deviceharddisk3..). It then stripes out everything and leaves me with the number 3.
In VB6 I used mDrive.bas from vbAccelerator.com and it worked perfectly. I have been all over the internet and back and cannot find a solution written in VB.NET.

Dec 18, 2010The drive is connected via USB and the problem I'm having is that, periodically, while my code is executing, the usb drive seems to disconnect and reconnect. (Nothing to do with the program, but the drive itself).I want to find a way to prevent these temporary drive reconnects from interrupting my code. IE, i want to insure that whatever read or write that is requested is actually executed even in the case of a temporary drive interruption.

View 1 RepliesGetting Physical Drive Number From Drive Letter?
Jun 17, 2009I am trying to get the physical drive (device) number from the drive letter. If the user inputs the drive letter C the program will find the associated physical device number. For example if I input C then the result needs to be \Device\HardDrive1\... Some call it NT Device Name; I think. I have the code for VB6 from vbAccelerator, which works perfectly, but it does not work in VB.NET. My question is there a simple way of pulling the drive info that contains the drive letter and the physical device number. I have searched the internet and found nothing for VB.NET. I would post code but I have nothing for .NET.

View 14 RepliesPhysical Drive Number From Drive Letter
Jun 16, 2009I have a program I am converting from VB6 to VB.NET and I am stuck at the very last piece of code. I need to determine what physical device number is associated with the drive letter.
The program takes the drive letter from a text box and goes and finds the device number (i.e. deviceharddrive3...) and strips out everything leaving me with the devicer number; in this case the number 3. I have searched the internet to and fro and found nothing in VB.NET.
My program in VB6 uses a .bas module from vbaccelerator.com called mDrive.bas and works great. I can't figure out how to convert it over to VB.NET.
Forms :: Determine A Dynamic Drive Letter For A Directory On The Removable Drive And Then Open That Directory In An Explorer Window
Feb 19, 2009First off a short background of the project I am working on- I am developing a program that will be run off removable media (i.e. USB Flash drive). This will be a �virtual desktop� which you will be able to take with you and have the same �desktop� on any system. As we know drive letters can change with each host system the drive is plugged into, I need to be able to determine the path for the flash drive and access a specific folder ( i.e. My Documents)
I have an picture box(representing the icon) placed on my form (form1) and when I click the icon I want to be able to open and view the a specific folder from the portable drive. I need a click event that will determine a dynamic drive letter for a directory on the removable drive and then open that directory in an explorer window.

Check If Logical Drive Is CD/DVD Drive
Jun 16, 2009Is it possible to check if a Logical device gathered through a WMI search request is a CD/DVD Drive? Right now, I can get the path of every Win32_LogicalDisk through WMI, but E: (for me) is my DVD drive and unless there is a disc, my program fails because it tries to count the number of folders/files on the disc.
Ultimately, I'd like to be able to tell if it is a CD/DVD drive then check to see if there is a disc there before I do anything else to it. Can it be done using WMI?
Detect CD Drive Regardless Of Drive Letter?
Jan 2, 2010I have a function that copies files from a CD to my HDD:CopyFiles(CD_Drive, FullPath & "")
The problem is that the Drive letter "I:" is not consistent. Sometimes when I connect and disconnect external devices, the CD Drive letter changes and then my code doesn't work unless I open the project, change the letter "I" and recompile.What code can I use that will ALWAYS detect my CD Drive, regardless of the drive letter? (Like for instance, NERO will detect and burn CDs regardless of the drive letter)

May 1, 2010I have created a form that I would like to run from a jump drive, or cd drive, were the drive letter will never be the same-
Application.StartupPath is the answer I have come up with- Implementing it is difficult for me- all the examples I have seen retrieves the path and imports it to a textbox. What I got is a form will start a .exe of a portable program- ( that will be located on the jump drive, or cd)
I have created a form that will -when a button is pressed- execute an .exe to a program that will also be on the jump drive. how to do this from start to finish on how to run an .exe from a file that will not ever be located on the same drive-

View 3 RepliesTrying To Scan Images ?
Jan 4, 2010I am trying to scan images in VB.NET. I searched this site for almost an hour and found questions, but little in the way of answers, but some redirection which did not resolve the issue.
I downloaded the example here [URL] which has 7 projects doing a whole bunch of things. I do not have the scanner attached to my PC. Nor can I run any of these examples which do way more than I am trying to do. Then I went here [URL], found the VB version on planetsourcecode, but it will not run. I tried to duplicate what it does, but I couldn't get either of these line to be recognized:
Imports TwainGui.vb.TwainLib
Imports TwainGUI.vb.GdiPlusLib
I understand that the differences between .NET and VB are huge, but what I fail to understand is why no one has been able to post an example of how to scan? My company is not willing to purchase any 3rd party tools and my boss believes it can be done through the api, which some posts seem to imply but fail to show how.
