thamks for your suggestions Luc
but my problem is that out of 25000 files in the
list box only top 15000 or 10000 are being written
i tried putting the contents of the list box in a string variable
but without success
For x = 0 to listbox1.Items.Count-1
strVar &= listbox1.Items(x).ToString
Next
my.comp.filesystem.writealltext(filepath,strVar)
but instead "#ERROR 488# is written

for counts of many tenthousands, this is non-seense: the final result would probably be a string with a length exceeding one million characters, however building it also creates tenthousands of intermediate strings of growing length, so your code is bound to be extremely slow, and may well run out of memory.
furthermore, there was no need whatsoever to concatenate everything, since File class also has a WriteAllLines() method, which takes an array of strings.
finally, if you do not absolutely need to hold lots of data in memory, then don't. Just write the text lines as you get them. I know you are failing here so far, due to reasons unknown to all of us as you still haven't shown us real code. Lacking that, I will not continue this thread.

Hi everybody
I must declare some constants on VB.NET based on some C code that I have, like this.
#define ABCDE_FGH 0x00008603L
How could I do this on VB.NET? I get an error doing this:
Public const ABCDE_FGH = 0x00008603L
Public const ABCDE_FGH 0x00008603L
And I'm afraid to use this:
Public const ABCDE_FGH = "0x00008603L", because although I don't get an error, it would be only text...
Does somebody know something about this?
Thanks everybody

Did you read the error ? What does it say ?
You don't have a type, just access modifiers. Try public const int, and if that doesn't work ( I dunno if VB supports 0x for hex ), try converting it to a decimal number in calculator and put that.

hi
visual basic does not support ox00008603L
try with:
Public Const ABCDE_FGH As Integer = &H00008603L
or
Public Const ABCDE_FGH As Long = &H00008603L
|
|
|
|

Perfect.
Thanks both of you!

i m making a project over bank management on vb.net but can't figure out where to start from

Click on file, then choose new, then choose project. From there, read the details of your homework, talk to your teacher if you are lost, and ask us if you have a specific question.

Yeah, it usually starts with an interview process to gather the system requirements. It kind of helps to know what the application is expected to do, don't you think?

It's to do with file associations on the client computer - ie: open Windows Explorer, right click the file you want and click Open With... select your application, tick the box that says "Always open with this program".
|

Hi,
there are two parts to this:
1. the file association: teaching Windows your file extension goes with your app; the easiest way to achieve that is by doing it manually once, i.e. double-click a file, choose the right app and check "always open using this app". A more complex way is adding some code.
2. the opening of the file: your app will now be launched with one (or more) file paths as command line arguments, so your app must read the command line and act upon it. See Environment.GetCommandLineArgs()

Sorry, I'm sure this is obvious... When I start my program from a shortcut in Vista the default directory becomes c:\windows\system32. How do I make the default directory the path that the .exe is actually in?
Thanks
|
|
|
|
|
In XP, you can set the "Start In" directory in the shortcut itself. Can you not do this with a Vista shortcut?
Of course, there are VB functions to get the App Directory from within code if this is what you are after...
|
|
|
|
|
I don't see any way to change the "start in" value in Vista. In any case there must be a way to change the default directory programmatically.
|

If I understand you correctly, the following should work:
System.IO.Directory.SetCurrentDirectory("c:\myfolderpath")
Hope that helps.

Hi Ray,
Totally helps. What I really needed, which I figured out thanks to your message, was:
System.IO.Directory.SetCurrentDirectory(Application.StartupPath)
I knew it had to be simple!

I have a frame on a form (actually the frame is on a tab of a tab control). On the frame is a control (command button) At run time I want to load more controls, but I want them to appear on the frame, they end up on the form (behind the frame)
even bring to front does not work, any ideas?
Loading and such works fine, they just show up behind everything on the form.
No-e
|
|
|
|
|
What control collection are you adding them to? The form or the frame (groupbox)?
Wait, I'm not supposed to respond to your questions anymore since I'm overly harsh with you.
