System.io - Using The Open File And Save File Dialogs In .net?
Sep 6, 2009
Once a user has selected a file with the open file dialog, how can I handle this action? For example, if the user has selected a .txt file and has opened it, how can it get the data from the file? How can it return the path that the user found the file in? Then, how can it save the file?I know that there is a OpenFileDialog.OpenFile() method, but I am also pretty sure this is not what I am looking for. I have also tried the ToObject method, but I probably messed up somehow.

What the icon file filter is for load/save file dialogs. (I know the jpeg one is "JPEG Files (*.jpg)|*.jpg|PNG Files (*.png)|*.png|BMP Files (*.bmp)|*.bmp|All files (*.*)|*.*" But as far as I know you can't use these as icons without an icon editor).

In my dialog I want to prevent the user to browse freely in certain places (this is due to the fact that my application will be running in a terminal server environment). So I want to to limit the items that will be visible in the top combobox of the server. I want it to start with "My Computer" instead of the usual "Desktop". Furthermore I only want to add mapped network drives under "My Computer" so that the user won't be able to see any local resources.With Spy++ I have been looking around at what happens when a FileDialog starts.
So far I have found that for each item in the combobox CB_SETITEMDATA and CB_INSERTSTRING methods are executed. By using a hook to the combobox I am able to intercept these messages, but sofar I am unable to determine the exact contents of what is inserted, so I am unable to determine wether it is the "Desktop" item or not.I have also discovered that the "My Computer" node is only added at the moment that the combobox is expanded. So I would need a way to get a handle to "My Computer" and insert an item for it manually

I have a database file that excel reads just fine but i can't figure out what type of file it is. So i figure the easiest thing to do is open the file in vb.net via an excel object, then execute the save as i have seen 1000 examples but even after i think i add a reference vb still has no idea what "excel." is.[code]

I have been using Visual Basic for about 2 weeks now so I know I am getting in over my head at this point, but times a factor. I have created a user form with around 100 User entered text boxes and pull down menus, tabbed pages etc. I can create a distributable file with no problem. However I cannot find any kind of example, tutorial, etc that will show me how to allow an end user to save the form as "enterfilenamehere.DCP" (for example) and then reopen any .dcp file created in my form application. The only examples and tutorials I can find are how to type text and save it as a txt. format. Could someone lend a complete novice some advice or point me in a good direction on where to learn about saving and opening custom file types?To clarify The user can use my form, But at this point has no way of saving and recalling what they entered in my form. It's a one time use only...not really what I want.

Code that opens image file this code works properly
Private Sub MenuItem4_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles FromFile.Click
PBDisplay.Visible = False
If OpenFileDialog1.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK Then
PBDisplay.SizeMode = PictureBoxSizeMode.AutoSize
[Code] ......
This code is what I am using to save image after it is re sized, It will not save the new image, it saves the old image and the old size. I am using a picture box to import the image into, then I am resizing the picture box and the image. But when it is saved it reverts to the original image.
Private Sub MenuItem6_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Save.Click
If SaveFileDialog1.ShowDialog = DialogResult.OK Then
PBDisplay.Image.Save(SaveFileDialog1.FileName)
End If
End Sub

I am trying to write a code to save and open data that is in my application. My application contains hundreds of text boxes, combo boxes and labels. I have created an array for each set of data, i.e.,
glist(0).store=combobox1.value
glist(0).cat=combobox2.value
glist(0).it=label3.text
glist(0).quan=label4.text
glist(0).total=label5.text
up to glist(89).
Is there a way to write a code to loop through the array and save the values so that they can be opened at a later time in my application? The array will contain Doubles and Strings.

I just downloaded the latest VB Express. It seems that thought the functions are available, there are many that are not as fully functioning as they should be, like PRINT dialogs and TIME/DATE dialogs, etc. Are some of these functions not fully developed in VB Express because they are only available to the licensed version?

I just published this simple console application that is supposed to show a textbox with the value of a setting called "userID" with value 1001. This works like a charm. Now what I need is to change this value outside the editor, from notepad etc. When I open the application a lot in there is non-sence etc. but with a quick (ctrl + F) I found the value 1001, and changed this to some other integer.
I ran the application again, and it failed, didn't even give any userful error-message. At a point I tried just opening a newly published non-corrupted version of the application, didn't change anything, then saved from notepad, and it were also corrupted. It seems like notepad can't open some characters or something. Do I need to publish the application in some specific text-unicode language or something? I use vb.net for this
