Why does everyone what to do a "Messenger" program first? You should learn to walk before you can run. Seriously - there is a heck of a lot to consider in a messenger type application. You have a client application and a server application (unless you are going p2p in which case you need some sort of "discovery" mechanism). You have to register users within the system and manages and so on and so forth.
Sorry that this doesn't seem to be a helpful reply to you, but there is a lot going on in an application like that and it would take far too long to explain in a forum post to someone who has "just started [their] first program"

Is this your first program in any language? If so, your taking on a HUGE project for such a beginner.

Does anyone know how I might be able to have a VB.Net program automatically recognize that a USB drive has been plugged into a computer. File watcher is the only way I can think of but I was wondering if anyone might know of another way.

Ignore the Demo folder in the zip
the one you want is the DeviceChangeNotify folder.

Hello,
The code to remove an item from a combobox at runtime is:
ComboBox1.Items.RemoveAt(ComboBox1.SelectedIndex)
I hope this helps,

I've never done it through Crystal but I did using ComponentOne Reports and I just used a font. I am at home right now, but I have the code at work and I will send it to you tomorrow and you can see if it will work for you.

There's a description of how to enumerate the installed fonts here[^] on MSDN.

Is there something wrong with ComboBox1.Items.Add("colorName")? Or what are you looking for here?
sam_pune wrote:

You can't. TextBox doesn't support images or hosting other controls.
RichTextBox will support images though. There's an article by Khendys Gordon that demonstrates who to do this here[^] on CP. It's written in C#, but is easily convertable to VB.NET.

Hello
I'am trying to copy a folder to another drive. I'am doing this with the FileSystemObject fso. Now, I want that the progress of the copying is shown in a Progressbar. All that I get is that first the folder is copied and then the progressbar is shown. I'd like to have it at the same time.
Please excuse my English. I'm not used to speak it very often, but I can understand most of it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Here is the code for copying the folder:
<br />
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click<br />
<br />
Dim md As String<br />
Dim di As String<br />
md = "C:\Eigene Dateien"<br />
di = "Laufwerk \i:"<br />
<br />
timer1.enabled = true<br />
<br />
Label1.Text = "Achtung: Datentranfer läuft. Bitte warten."<br />
Label1.Refresh()<br />
<br />
Dateien_Kopieren()<br />
<br />
Label1.Text = "Kopiervorgang ist abgeschlossen"<br />
MessageBox.Show("Der Ordner " & md & " ist nach " & di & " kopiert.")<br />
<br />
End Sub<br />
<br />
Private Sub Dateien_Kopieren()<br />
Dim fso As FileSystemObject<br />
<br />
fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")<br />
<br />
fso.DeleteFolder("i:\Eigene Dateien", True)<br />
<br />
fso.CopyFolder("C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\Christoph Schmid\Eigene Dateien", "i:\")<br />
<br />
End Sub<br />
Other controls on the form are a progressbar and a timer.
<br />
Private Sub Timer1_Tick()<br />
progressbar1.value = progressbar1.value + 1<br />
End Sub<br />

Thanks for the link
I'm sorry, I didn't say that I want to do the code with VB.Net. I don't have VS6 installed any more, but I have transformed the code from the link into VB.Net-code but I have several problems debugging it. I have seen many useful examples with a Progressbar in this forum, but I didn't find what I was looking for.
Thanks

In order for a Progress Bar to work, you need two things. You need to know how much work your doing (total number of files or total size of all files) and a mechanism to report how far you've gotten through that work. Using the FileSystemObject .CopyFolder method won't give you either of those.
In order to get the total amount of work to be done, you'll need to either count the number of files in the source directory (and all subdirectories) or the number of bytes in those files. Either way, the data collection method is the same. Use a recursive function, that takes a full fileystem path as a parameter and returns the total number of files/bytes in that folder and all subfolders, to enumerate all the files in a folder, then call itself with the path to each one of the subdirectories, one at a time.
Now, copying the files follows the same rescursive method, but it updates the Progress Bar with how many files/bytes have been copied. If you're counting files, then all you need to do is call File.Copy with the full path to the source and destination filenames. Update the Progress Bar after each file copy is completed. If you're counting bytes, that gets a little more complicated. But just write your own Copy function that takes the same file path parameters for source and destination. This function will then have to open the source file (Binary mode preferrably), read a block of bytes and copy them to the destination file. Update the Progress Bar with the number of bytes that have been copied.
