Search For Folder Wildcard And Open Folder?
Apr 27, 2012
I am having trouble trying to accomplish a search for a folder with a wildcard within a directory.
The folder will look sort of like this: [2008][560909][Market Change] or [year][number][name]
Thus far this is what I have:
Function searching()
Dim choice, input
Dim strPatheServices
[Code]....
I am uncertain where to go from this other than add the wild card to the exist so like:
System.IO.Directory.Exists(strPatheServicesinput + "*")

I can't find how to search for a folder (directory) that contains a string and copy all the folders (directory) that contain that string to another directory. So you search for the name of the directory, not the files in the directory.For example: 'KTNPRK' in E: gives:E:KTNPRK1, E:AZNKTNPR76, etc...

Private Function DetermineIfFileExists() As Integer
Dim sFileName As String
sFileName = "C:/text1.txt" [code]....
In my case, I will not know the exact file name of the .txt file.I need to search for a .txt file.

I have an application that has a list of string that needs to be search in a database table field to select rows with the same name and retrive the values of one particular fields that contains the file name with extention for that string. With this new generated text file, I pass the filename with the extension and search the folders that are listed in a txt file. All of this works fine.
Now I need a more simple version of this application, without using the database to get the filename with extension. Instead, read the text file with input strings, search in the folders listed in another text file(to know the location of the folders to search for the string). If any file that matches with the string in the text file, I need to copy those files to another folder.

I can figure out how to do this, but Im not sure what I should be looking for. I have a database that gets updated about once a month, and when it does, it changes the name of the database file to match the date and time the new database was created.
The file name always starts with DB and the rest of the file name structure is DBYYYYMMDDHHMMSS (After the seconds, the file name is the same for all of the databases)
There are a few things I am trying to do.
1.I want to be able to search the update folder for whatever database is there
2.Trim the file name to return the database name as DBYYYYMMDD
3.Search the local database folder for the specific file name and return it in the same format as the update
4.Compare the two file names and choose which decide if one is newer than the other based on the date
What I need to know is what this would be called and what I would need to use to accomplish this.

I have several txtfiles in different folders, now I'm trying to program an application which gathers specific informations in multiple txtfiles within a folder and saves them in a new txtfile. The folder with the txtfiles to be searched should be chooseable via a FolderBrowserDialog.I started with a button which contains the FolderBrowserDialog, after I chose a file it shows the path in a textbox and its containing files in a richtextbox:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnLoadFile.Click
fbDialog.SelectedPath = "C:"
fbDialog.ShowNewFolderButton = True
[code]....
sometimes value exists in a block - sometimes not.if "value" exists it should show the whole line starting from "value" and its linenumber and the date of the block in which it found it in a listbox and save all found lines in a new txtfile or directly save in a txtfile without showing them in a listbox.

I installed the new one. I then imported an old project made using vb 2008 EE.I found that a few errors were reported.In the project I addressed some function from a dll called "rsource.dll". I used the following function call:Public Declare Function rs_init Lib "rsource.dll" Alias "init" () As Double.The other different thing is the projevt was developed on a 32 bit OS but since then I have upgraded to 64bit (if this makes any difference). he other thing is where is the debugger PAUSE button. has it been removed from vb 2010?Also when i run debug it seems to create the exe in the Build output target folder instead of the default bindebug folder why is this?

So I've been using some code to generate directories and such in a custom treeview, but am looking to expand upon this idea. While it's not using recursive functions, and only calls functions when expanding levels, I'm not quite sure how to put some of these together.find a way to just search through all folders on the PC. If the folder contains audio files, that folder is than added to an array (searching a folder for audio files and adding that folder to an array is done). It's just recursivly searching all folders on the PC.Here is the code I've been using for the treeview (I'm not sure if it can be adapted):
Public Function ListAllDrives() As String()
Dim arDrives() As String
arDrives = Directory.GetLogicalDrives()[code].....
