I don't really know, I thought you said you'd found some code ?

Not really. The code I found was for a different requirement. However it was close to my requirement which made me draw the idea of interop.
Any ways, thanks for your concern I will try finding the solution myself and if I am successful I will post my finding in this thread itself.

I am relatively new to programming(still in school) and cannot figure out this problem.
For my HTPC I use a open source program called Media Browser[^]
In the recent update we lost being able to sort by genre. Well, we can sort by genre but cannot view the images associated with each genre. The original creators have taken a break and are trying to go commercial with the software, while at the same time keeping it open source. I intend to buy(if it is stable when they do go commercial) but while they are getting things sorted the "followers" are left in the dark with the bugs in the new release.
I have tried with my limited knowledge to find the problem to no avail and was hoping someone on here had some time to kill and would download the svn and look at the code. That one problem is all I want fixed perhaps with an explanation of what was wrong so I can learn. I have spent hours looking over the code with no improvements at all.
If no one wants to help, I fully understand. Atleast to me its all greek and takes forever to go through, don't know if its the same for people experienced in the field.

I am creating a file list of all files in a directory, searching each subdirectory and so on.
When I come to a windows shortcut file such as "MUSIC.LNK" I would like to scan and search the
directory that it points to as well.
DirectoryInfo directory = new DirectoryInfo(PSP_Directory[Display, i] + "\\");
FileInfo[] theFiles = directory.GetFiles();
DirectoryInfo[] theSubDirectories = directory.GetDirectories();
foreach (FileInfo theFile in theFiles) <<< The link file MUSIC.LNK can be seen here
{
if (string.Equals(theFile.Name.Split('.')[1].ToUpper(), "LNK"))
{
How do I get the directory infomation from it so that I can redirect my scanning to that directory as well.
Thank you in advance.

I don't know if there's an easy way - but if you scroll down to LNK on this page[^], there are a couple of PDFs you can download which should help.

Got it - you need to add a reference using the COM tab to Windows Script Host Object Model.
Add this to your usings
using IWshRuntimeLibrary;
Then you can do something like this
string shortcutLocation = @"C:\Your Shortcut.lnk";
WshShellClass wsh = new WshShellClass();
IWshShortcut shortcut = (IWshShortcut)wsh.CreateShortcut(shortcutLocation);
Console.WriteLine(shortcut.TargetPath);

Hi ,
i want to specify the maximum number of digits for numeric part and the Decimal part in a text box.
i tried specifying precision and maxlength of the text box but then it if we input the max length then the precesion cannot be inputted and it gets resetted to the maxamount which should not be possible.
like if Maxlength=8
precsion = 2
input required:123456.90 possible
input required : 12345678.89 which is not possible
so is there any way we could specify the format of the numeric part and as well the decimal part. which would restrict for only that particular input format.
like : dddddddd.dd
thanks in advance....
cheers,
sriharsha

Hi,
i have tried using masekedit ,
<ajaxtoolkit:maskededitextender id="MaskedEditExtender1" runat="server" acceptnegative="Left" displaymoney="None" mask="9999999.99" masktype="None" messagevalidatortip="true" oninvalidcssclass="MaskedEditError" targetcontrolid="TextBox4" clearmaskonlostfocus="false">
<ajaxtoolkit:maskededitvalidator id="MaskedEditValidator1" runat="server" controlextender="MaskedEditExtender2" controltovalidate="TextBox4" cssclass="InputFieldRed" display="Dynamic"
invalidvaluemessage="Invalid " isvalidempty="false" tooltipmessage="" validationgroup="Search">
;
when for example
input is 12345678.90 no problem
but when
input is 11.11 > it changes to 1111 when i click it again.
and when it is something like
input is 11 .11 it changes to 1111 when i click it again.
is there any way it takes the input in a normal way and also restrict the format required for the number.
thanks and regards,
sriharsha

Verify whether the decimal-separator is set to a dot - if it thinks that it's a thousand-separator, it will simply remove it from the input

"Filtered"? Didn't you mean Mask[^]?

Hi,
No
<ajaxtoolkit:maskededitextender id="MaskedEditExtender1" runat="server" acceptnegative="Left" displaymoney="None" mask="9999999.99" masktype="None" messagevalidatortip="true" oninvalidcssclass="MaskedEditError" targetcontrolid="TextBox4" clearmaskonlostfocus="false" filtered=".">
Filtered="." property of maskededitexteneder .
but not working.
where else can we set the decimal...?
thanks and regards,

In the configuration panel, under "Regional Settings" - but that applies only to the culture of the local computer.
The extender is part of the AJAX-framework, and the control is unknown to me. I suggest asking this question in the ASP.NET forum
"please help in this regard. give the visual basic code for this as soon possible."

hi,
is there any way through c# we could fix the format or maximum length for numeric part and decimal part.
like
number format: (8,2) only.
thanks
sriharsha

Information on formatting a string can be found here[^]. That's for display - it won't stop the user from entering three decimals.
You can use the MaskedTextBox.Mask[^] property to get more control on the input.
Good luck

Hi ,
I used Regularexpression and its working fine.
as:
<asp:regularexpressionvalidator id="regexpName" runat="server"
errormessage="This expression does not validate."
controltovalidate="TextBox5"
validationexpression="^\d{1,8}(\.\d{1,2})?$" enableviewstate="true">;
in
controltovalidate : speicfy the textbox to validate
ValidationExpression: which validates the expression in the format (8,2)
otherwise gives error.
Thanks for all suggestions.

I assume that you have a direct link to Code Project on your desktop, and your browser has had the address bar physically torn off it and thrown away in the trash. After all, a quick search returns lots and lots of hits[^] for this. I know that it means you've got some reading to do, but you wouldn't want us to hold your hand for you, now would you?
