How to access all list of contacts ?

I need to programmatically copy a file from one computer to many others and it needs to be done simultaneously. I've tried the .Net File.Copy Method but i found out it cannot copy an already open file. How do I copy an currently open file?
Thanks

If the open file is locked in read/write mode, you will not be able to copy it until the lock has been released.
As for simultaneous copying, you'll be using System.Threading.Thread class.

if you use visual basic or visual c++ you can use api to copy or delete or move file in same pc or to another pc
and to use it by vb use this
Public Declare Function CopyFile Lib "kernel32" Alias "CopyFileA" (ByVal lpExistingFileName As String, ByVal lpNewFileName As String, ByVal bFailIfExists As Long) As Long
and in vc++ just call the fucnction

If the file is locked by an application as ShareDenyRead or ShareDenyAll, then your screwed and have to wait for the application to release it's locks or, preferrably, closes the file.
If your going to copy this file to multiple locations simultaneously, you can do it by either P/Invoking the CopyFileA function for each destination computer, letting the O/S copy the file. Or you can create your own copy file class and launch a copy on a thread for each destination.
In either case you'll have to watch how many of these you launch at one time. If you try an launch this for, say, 25 machines at one, you'll bring your system to a halt waiting for these things to copy out. Whatever network connection you use will quicky become saturated with your copy traffic and you, most likely, won't be able to do much of anything else until the copy process is completed.

I am using a max 10 threads to copy this file to other pcs and the only application using this file is my application. I've tried using the API but it still won't work. I am looking for a way to copy this file similar to the way the Backup applications doing it. Any suggestions?
Thanks again.

OK. You seem to believe that Backup programs can backup any file they want, regardless of its locked state. This is simply not true. If an application has a file locked for exclusive read and/or write, the backup application will normall skip the file. There are occasions where a locked file CAN be backed up, but these include files where there are record locks, not entire file locks, and file that are locked for write, but shared read. Some backup apps also install extensions to the file system to partially get around these limitations, but the techniques involved require low level disk access and assembling the file from the disk sectors into another file.

Another Question: How do use the shadow copy service in Windows 2003 from a VB.NET application? Just curious.

Is there an event (or related event) triggered when you edit the contents of a cell in a bound datagrid (VB.NET). I am trying to update the total value of the columns in the last column...

Dim objP(255) As Login 'Login is a class
'Here I want to use the class sub "SetValues"
objP(1).SetValues("Bla1", "Bla2")
'Here i want to show the class member "User"
MsgBox(objP(1).User)
But this results in this error message:
---
An unhandled exception of type 'System.NullReferenceException'
occurred in ClassApp.exe
Additional information: Object reference not set to an instance
of an object.---
I wonder if I should use something like this to make it work?
Dim objP(255) New As Login -But this doesn't work!
Thanks for help!

You need to instantiate every member of the array, like this
Dim i as Integer<br />
<br />
for i=lbound(objP) to ubound(objP)<br />
objP(i) = new Login<br />
next
Do you always need all the 255 Logins ? If not, I'd prefer using an ArrayList or a Collection.
dim logins as New ArrayList()<br />
<br />
logins.Add(new Login("Bla1", "Bla2"))

I have an application that I debugged initially in Windows XP, and I am now testing it on Windows 2000 Professional. There are two things that don't work correctly in Windows 2000:
1) The first time the app is opened, the splash screen doesn't close on the timer_tick event. If I close the app and re-open it, it works fine.
2)The cursor doesn't change using the syntax (from an MDI child form)
Me.Parent.Cursor = Cursors.WaitCursor
WHat do I need to do to make these features work properly in Windows 2000?
Thanks!

I believe it is. It has Service Pack 4 installed.
|
|
|
|
|
In that case, I hove no idea. You shouldn't have to make any code changes to get the same functionality. I only mentioned the Service Pack because there was a problem with some timers under Windows 2000 that was fixed with Service Pack 2.

How good the site, or other resource, is depends entirely on your skill set and how you learn.

You'll have to call the Win32 API functions WNetOpenEnum, WNetEnumResources, WNetCloseEnum, along with a few others and a couple helper functions. There is an example of this in the Microsoft Knowledgebase here[^].

Hi,
Is there Microsoft provided funtion which will give me woking days in a year. e.g. With 5 days working week, how many daysare there in year
~@lh
|
|
|
|
|
Not that I know of, but it is not difficult to work out:
52 weeks * 5 days
+ 1 day if 31st Dec is a working day
+ 1 day if 30th Dec is a working day AND it is a leap year.
From there you can subtract local holidays if necessary.
Does this help?

You never said what you expect the current WorkingDirectory to be or what the problem is with it. Besides, your code isn't even using it in the CreateProcessA call. Your passing 0 in as the pointer to the lpCurrentDirectory parameter.

Oke lets passing another parameter
<br />
Public Function ExecuteAndWait(cmdline$)<br />
<br />
Dim NameOfProc As PROCESS_INFORMATION<br />
Dim NameStart As STARTUPINFO<br />
Dim x As Long<br />
Dim A<br />
Dim WorkingDirectory As String<br />
<br />
WorkingDirectory = cmdline$<br />
'MsgBox WorkingDirectory<br />
<br />
<br />
NameStart.cb = Len(NameStart)<br />
x = CreateProcessA(0&, cmdline$, 0&, 0&, 1&, HIGH_PRIORITY_CLASS, 0&, WorkingDirectory, NameStart, NameOfProc)<br />
x = WaitForSingleObject(NameOfProc.hProcess, INFINITE)<br />
x = CloseHandle(NameOfProc.hProcess)<br />
End Function<br />
it gives this error code:
run-time error 13
Type mismatch
Why ? im missing somthing ?
Thanks for your time
