User To Select A Directory And Then List The Appropriate Files?
May 6, 2012
I am using the following code to allow the user to select a directory and then list the appropriate files within that directory in a combobox. What I would like to do is sort that combobox into a descending order so the most resent files are listed first as the filename contains a date yymmdd.
ComboBox1.Items.Clear()
If FolderBrowserDialog1.ShowDialog() = DialogResult.OK Then
TextBox1.Text = FolderBrowserDialog1.SelectedPath
End If
Dim BackupFolder As String = TextBox1.Text
Here is my current code, and it works fine to choose one image and copy it, however, I cannot figure out how to allow multiple file selections then copy them to a new folder.
Imports System.IO Public Class Form1 Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Dim strFileName As String
I am trying to enable the user the ability to select a folder and the folders music files populate a list box. I want two list boxes on the page, one with all the contents of the folder and then the other one for files selected from the first box. I have no clue on how to do this at all.
I am going to need to create a windows form for work that we can connect to a database table, select a directory and move files from the directory that are in the table and move to another folder. The directory will have sub directories that I need to search for the file name and move. I would like to have the table hold the file name (or path) and move all files that are in the database. There might be 20 files or 1000. Depends on the client we are processing for.
I'm trying to get files from a directory and all the sub directory's to show in a checked list box. This is my first time working with arrays?here is the code
Public Class add_to_play_list 'IO.Directory.GetCurrentDirectory & "\x"' Dim Home As String Dim Fi As New ArrayList

I am trying to create a program which will read the files that exist in a directory, and then write in a text file the specific information (full file name, date created)i have found several code in the site but i cant make it work, the machine i am running the code is XP and i am using VB2008.The code i have found is the following:
I have a SQL Server table with a list of files (path + filename), and a folder with multiple layers and files in each layer. I'm looking for a way to reconcile the two without having to process the list twice. Currently, I'm doing this:
For Each f as FileInfo In FileListFromDatabase If f.Exists is False, mark it as deleted in the database Next
[Code]....
Is there a better way to do this? I'd like to avoid converting all the matching files (of which most will be) to FileInfo objects twice. Since I'm a T-SQL developer first, I'm picturing something like an OUTER JOIN of the two lists where they don't match. Something LINQ-ish?

Title says it all. How can you obtain a list of files (as a stringcollection or some other storage method) which contains the full path on the user's computer to the files?
I need to do a daily process that has to copy (download), all the files from a iSeries folder. At the moment, if i know the filename i'm using the following code with the cwbx.dll
Dim dt As New cwbx.DatabaseTransfer dt.UserID = "user" dt.Password = "password" dt.Download("iSeriesName", "dir/filename", "outputfile")
But how can i list all the files that exist in that dir, so that i can copy/download them all ?
I have an 'In' folder that users drop all different types of files into (.doc, .xls, .rtf, .pdf etc.).Each file that gets dropped into the 'In' folder should have a matching .pdf file (i.e. abc123.doc and abc123.pdf)I have a program which looks into this 'In' directory at regular intervals and moves filename.* to another directory. The folder the files get moved to depends on the first 2 characters of the filename (12-abc.doc might get copied to folder '12' etc).All the files placed in the 'In' folder should have both a native file and a matching .pdf i.e. (abc123.doc and abc123.pdf)In some cases the native file is missing. In some cases the .pdf is missing.There are 2 things that I want to do.
1.) I want to prevent files being moved from the 'In' folder if a .pdf does not exist (I think I can deal with this one ok). I think perhaps a For Next Loop Array for filenames minus the file extension and if it already exists in the array then copy them (but what if someone has got a .doc and a .xls but no .pdf?!?!? I'm sure somebody could tell me a simple way of achieving this.
2.) This is the part I am struggling with. I need to look in existing folders that files have already been copied to and list:
a.) Native file without matching .pdf b.) .pdf without matching native file c.) .pdf with matching native file
I am trying to program my application in VB.Net so that when a user goes to my 'FTP Out' page, the page straight away loads with a list of the files that are on my FTP site.I know I will have to get a connection going with my FTP site but how do I actually go about getting the list of details to show on my form?
At the moment, all I can think of is calling 'Methods.Ftp.ListDirectoryDetails'
I am needing to allow the user to choose a directory to save in. They can create a new directory if they want/need, and once they choose the directory, my program will save a few pre-coded files into that directory.

I have a form on which I want the user to be able to select a name from a list. The list needs to be populated from an table in my dataset. I'd like the user to begin typing and have an autocomplete append select type feature let them zero in on the person they want as they type. My question is, what type of control would work best for this?
I am pretty new at VB but am trying to design an application that will allow a user to select from files on his or her PC, hit a '>>' button, and those files will appear in a list on the right side of the button (so I can then have the application upload those files via ftp). I am planning to use a TreeView control to act as a file explorer in the application. I have been unable to find any resources on the internet to populate the tree view with the user's local file structure, and was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction.
I am trying to create a program which will allow users to select multiple files from a list and then burn them all to a playable DVD. It would be wonderful if i could setup a custom menu programatically as well. I have seen some documentation on Imapi 2.0 but i have not been able to find too much suppoert for it. I have also found a few SDK's out there but most are over $1000 which just isnt in the budget.
1) Is there a library included in windows 7 that will allow me to do this.
2) Is there an inexpensive or open source sdk with good documentation out there to do this with

All I am trying to do is write a simple program that will let me choose a directory and get a listing of all files in that directory and its sub-directories and show it in a RichTextBox.
