Your only option is to farm out the actualy copying of files to the Shell. This is as fast as it's going to get. But don't expect huge gains in performance. You can find examples here[^].

Had a quick look at this and it seems good, but it always ask if i want to create a directory files if there is nothing there..
Do you know quickly if there is a way of telling it not to ask and create the directory automatically?
Thanks

I've got over my issue by doing the below
[code]
If Not Directory.Exists(strtoROOTlocation + "\" + strtoDrectoryName) Then
Directory.CreateDirectory(strtoROOTlocation + "\" + strtoDrectoryName)
End If
ShellCopy(strfromDirectoryFullPath + "\" + fiifiles.Name, strtoROOTlocation + "\" + strtoDrectoryName + "\" + fiifiles.Name, 100)
[/code]
Thanks

With all the (very bad) string concantenation your doing to build paths, you may want to look into the Path.Combine[^] method to do this for you.

I'm making a few assuptions about your environment here, but, as far as your description goes, you're out of luck. The proxy is specifically prohibiting you from getting to GMail, probably for very good reasons.
You either have to have the administrators open up the Proxy to GMail, or you're not going to be using GMail.

Thanks for reply.
This is correct that proxy is specifically prohibiting for getting Gmail.
This Question is related to our upcoming project in which we need to send mail using local machine. Currently we are going at remote server and testing our application. Mail is going correctly on remote computer but when we are running application at local machine then it is showing "Failure Sending Mail message".
So we know that there is proxy on Remote side and we need to test it on local machine
Please give me suggestion as source code
Regards
Rohit

OK. Your "local machine" will need to be running an SMTP server to send mail out. Oh! And that box is going to need access to the internet through your firewall too. On top of that, any upstream mail servers you end up going through are going to demand your SMTP server be authorize to use them.

This is probably because your machine cannot connect to the target server. Again, your proxy/firewall is getting the way. No amount of code you write will get around this problem. You simply have to get acces from your network administrators.

Hello,
I have the following question.
I publish my application to a folder, after that i copy the folder to for example a usb stick with that stick i go to the PC where the programm needs to be installed.
When i run the setup the programm is auto installing and is working without any problems.
What i dont find is how i can set the directory where the programm needs to be installed . for the moment is is installing someware Locallow\...\...
So the directory is not in program files.
Can anyone tell me how i can change that ?
I have a second question, i need to copy also a DLL for my star ticketprinter to the installation destination folder is there a way that i can include it in the setup ?
Thanks
Best regards

Is it published using ClickOnce?? If so, you have no control over the install location.
If you created an .MSI installer (non-Express versions of VS,) then you've got control over where it installs. Or, you can even use third party installer creation apps, like InnoSetup, Wise Package Studio, InstallShield, ...

Hello,
Thanks for responding.
When i check the properties of the project i see in security settings Enable Clickone Security settings. When i uncheck that one and do a publish i can still not select the destination directory.
Can you please give one more time advise please.
thanks

I already said if you're using ClickOnce to deploy your application, and you are from what I can tell, you have zero control over the installation directory. Once again - are you using an Express Edition of Visual Studio??
It's that simple. I already told you want your options are.

Dear All
I had used following code in VB6.0 to open test document through shell and I got following error....
Code: Shell "C:\shashi\test.doc"
Error: Invalid procedure call or argument
Code: Shell "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\winword.exe" & "C:\shashi\test.doc"
Error: File Not Found
Please help......

I think you are missing a space before the file name, so what you have is
winword.exeC:\shashi\test.doc
so try
Shell "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\winword.exe" & " C:\shashi\test.doc"

You'll have to use ShellExecuteEx to do that.

The ShellExecuteEx is an API. Google it next time before you 1-vote replies, or next time you won't get any replies.

There's only a couple of reasons this would have failed. The first is if the file path doesn't exist. The second is if there is a problem with the extension association (.doc) with an application. But, in this case, you would not have gotten the error you did.
Shazz Rock wrote: Shell "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\winword.exe" & "C:\shashi\test.doc"

It didn't work because you tried to execute something called Program, with the command line parameters of Files\Microsoft and Office\OFFICE11\winword.exe and C:\shashi\test.doc. Spaces, anywhere in the command line, are treated as delimiters.
You need to wrap full path specifications in double quotes so they are treated as a single component of the command line.
Your code should be closer to:
Shell """C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\winword.exe"" & _
" " & """C:\shashi\test.doc"""

"hello
I have following problem, I want to pass a variable in VBA code (MS Access)
M_Variable = "Text"
with Mrst
![M_Variable]= "AnotherTextString"
end with
The problem is I don't know how to pass this variable on.
Do I have to put hyphens? ("'"M_Variable"'" or [ & "'" & M_Variable & & "'" & ]) I tried some more combinations but they didn't work.
Many thanks for your help

Try this
