I created a program that allows my users to upload files to an FTP server and make folders. I have one problem. they cant delete the files yet. [url] you want to see the Upload page just enter random credentials). I was wondering if someone can help me make another form that displays files and folders and subfolders, maybe a listbox and when a user highlights something and clicks the delete button it will delete it or the rename button.
How can I do it so every time the user loads my application it will automatically (without prompt, or user selecting) upload all the files in a folder i select beforehand and add them into ListBox1
I'm designing a PC-based app that has a little local database. I'm using VB.NET with SQL Server Compact Edition. The user will only ever have access to one database file, because it's all about storing a user specific data. However I'm thinking of the situation where there could be multiple users that access the PC, each with their own Windows account. So ideally I'd need separate database files for each User.
I'm not sure how to implement this. I was hoping to deploy the 'empty' database as a ClickOnce deployment, but I can't see how I can have a database per user doing this. Also I'm not sure where to store the database files anyway. perhaps in MyDocuments for each user? Or perhaps I need to stick to just one database, but add a 'User' column into every table, so it can hold data for every user. I didn't want to do this though - because I wanted to keep the nice separation between the data offered by physically separate files.
Can someone point me in the direction for displaying the contents of a folder on the form with a check box, then if someone wants to delete a file then check the box and hit delete. How can I do that?

The MSDN Express Library 2008 suggests the following example to delete all of the files in a folderFor Each foundFile As String In My.Computer.FileSystem.GetFiles( My.Computer.FileSystem.SpecialDirectories.MyDocuments, FileIO.SearchOption.SearchAllSubDirectories, "*.*")
My.Computer.FileSystem.DeleteFile(foundFile, FileIO.UIOption.AllDialogs,FileIO.RecycleOption.DeletePermanently)NextI would like to adapt this code to delete all the files in a folder of my choosing; for example, all the files in c:msdnimages.
