Path Of .zip file Has Spaces In It / It's Not Recognizing Path As Valid Path
Aug 22, 2006I have a Access program and I'm using VBA code in the background to run Winunzip using shell command. Well, the path of the .zip file has spaces in it and it's not recongizing the path as a valid path. Is there a another way to tackle this problem besides the shell?I can't us pkzip either. Has you can see I had to use progra~1 instead of Program Files.[code]
View 2 RepliesAccess To Path Is Denied / StreamWriter
Nov 4, 2011I've seen a lot of threads in respect to file access denial, but haven't really found one that suited my particular issue. In my application the part that's not permitting the file to be saved is in the below code. I have 21 text boxes that I'm writing to a file that when in the developmental environment (Visual Studio 2010) works just fine however, when I create a setup program and then install it to a directory I get the infamous "Access to the path 'C:Program Files (x86)Blah, blah' umbers.dat is denied." before uninstalling it I took a look at the permissions on the file itself and ReadOnly is not the issue. I tried looking at the FileIOPermission Class, but find anything that would work for me or perhaps I was doing something wrong. [code]
View 4 RepliesVariables In A File Path Using IO.StreamWriter
Mar 13, 2010I have searched the web for an answer to this but can not find one anywhere. I have a program that will be sending text to different text files based on a selection in some combo boxes, I was wondering if it is possible to select the file path based on the combo box variables eg
if the user selects hello and then 4 in the combo boxes then the text will be saved to
w = New IO.StreamWriter("c:projecthello4.txt")
or if they select hi and 5
w = New IO.StreamWriter("c:projecthi5.txt")
i have tried setting 2 variables called a and b and trying to run the following
w = New IO.StreamWriter("c:project{a}{b}.txt") but this does not work

View 1 RepliesNew Streamwriter - How To Pass Full File Path
Mar 5, 2012I have 2 programs.
Prog1.exe is in folder1
Prog2.exe is in folder1/subfolder
When I execute this in Prog1,
Process.Start("subfolder/Prog2.exe")
Prog2 runs.
But...When I execute this in Prog2,
Dim sw as new streamwriter("1.txt")
sw.write("something")
sw.close
1.txt is created in folder1, and not subfolder.
I can do a easy workaround by passing the full file path when creating the streamwriter, but I just want to know if it's a bug or what.

Streamwriter And Strange Charactors - Opening The Streamwriter With Different Character Sets As The Third Parm?
Apr 21, 2010I am taking in two html files and creating one out of them. To do this I am opening the first html file and not writing out the closing </body> and </html> tag and opening the second file and not writing out the corresponding opening tags, as well as the <style></style>section. I start a streamwriter, and write the lines out to it, and then close the streamwriter. My problem is that the output file is filled with strange characters. I've tried opening the streamwriter with different character sets as the third parm, but all this does is change the characters to different strange characters.It says charset=windows-1252 at the tops of the input files (and the output files for that matter - since I'm just reading stuff in and writing it out - with the exceptions mentioned above).Questions;First, do you think I am properly approaching appending two .htm files together?Second, how can I eliminate these strange characters.

VS 2008 : Are Spaces In A Masked Texbox Not Really Spaces
Jan 1, 2010I just changed a control on a form from a masked textbox to a normal textbox because I wrote my own code to validate the data. I'm trying to clear the leading spaces that were created for this column in an Access database using the LTrim function and it doesn't work for some reason. The column is " :30" in the table and when I LTrim it and save the changes, it's still " :30" , not ":30". Is that leading entry not a space character?
View 4 RepliesInterface And Graphics :: Drawing Dotted Path Lines, With Even Dots Along The Path Line?
Apr 13, 2012Problem drawing dotted path lines, with even dots along the path line.I want to draw a path line that can be any shape (square, round, outline etc), and along this path line I want even dots to appear.
I also want to be able to resize the shape (as in the example attached)This is very easy to do using "DrawPath" and defining points for the path and using a pen defined as dots.The problem I have is I want the dots to be evenly placed along the path, on any shape or size I draw.In the example I have created, I create a square with 4 points and draw a dotted path.There are 2 buttons that allows me to resize the square (larger or smaller) this helps show the problem more clearly.
The path starts at the top left corner and finishes back at the top left corner, the dots are evenly placed along the path, except the final dots at the end of the path. (Sometimes the dots are even and other times they are not even).The shapes I want to draw can be any size and any shape, but I have used a square in this example to show the problem I have. point me in the direction I need to go that allows me to draw the dots and give the impression that they are even all along the path, for all shapes and sizes.
In the pictures below if you change the size of the shape, one will have even looking dots, the other will not.

Access A File Using Relative Path Or Virtual Path?
May 22, 2012I am trying to read and display a file using MapPath as follows :

Response.WriteFile(FilePath)
Response.End()
This procedure will work fine and display in the browser. However, if I save the file to C:Document123.pdf, how can I access this file using relative path in MapPath function. Is there an option to access the file which is saved out of IIS server? I am using vb.net 2003.
Convert Unix File Path To Windows Path?
Jun 14, 2012I'm using acrobat that returns unix paths instead of windows path's. So im wondering if there is a way in vb.net to convert the path to windows path.
i tried using:
docs(i) = javaScriptObj.path().ToString.Replace("/", "").Substring(1)
position = docs(i).IndexOf("")
docs(i) = docs(i).Substring(0, position) + ":" + docs(i).Substring(position + 1)
this only works on local files, but fails when im starting to use network drives.

Windows - Have The Physical Path By Giving The Network Path?
Nov 29, 2010Well now i have an issue which is pointing in the use of "path's" physical and network.I have a SQL server on a Server machine and i have a desktop machine used as client.I'm runing from my client machine a stored procedure in order to add a streaming data base.But also before i run this procedure i run another one which prepare the desired "path", this procedure takes:
myPath="\ServerSharedFolderSQL
in order to run the first procedure i have to turn myPath in each physical name:
myPath="DriveLetter:PublicWorkFilesSQL"
Now my Issue is how i will have the physical path, which is build it on the server and which it's from very difficult (to imposible) to know it? Basically i need a function which will return me the physical path, which the implementation it's not knowing to me. My developing environment is vb.net 2010?
