Move Files To Network Folder And Then Delete Old Ones At Local Folder
I am new at programming with VB6 and I would like to get some help.
I am trying to write a function meeting the following criteria:
* Moves all files (total of 3 files with different extensions)at a local folder (C:GraffitiWork) to a mapped network folder (that is persistent in drive lettering)and then
* replaces the files in the local folder with new ones that are blank (from another local folder named C:GraffitiMaster)
I have looked at the tips using the SHFileOperation function but when I looked at the msdn site, it states that "...you cannot use SHFileOperation to move special folders from a local drive to a remote computer by specifying a network path."
I need to have this done in order for a project to transfer these files on the command of the user to the network folder and then replace it with blank files for the next day's work.
Any help will be appreciated

Trying To Copy Files From Folder To Folder
hello everyone i have a problem with my code and was wandering if someone can help me figure it out.....this is what im trying to do....
i have a text box that has names in it...this can range from 10 names to however many....ok what these names are is the filename of a texture file that is either a .bmp or a .tga....the actull texture file will reside in 1 of three folders.....the first folder would be extures then exturessprites then exturesdecals
and what i need to do is filecopy the actull file that fits the name from my text box to another folder that the user will speicify but for now im saying "c extures"
ok i have code that takes the names in the text box and breaks them down by first placeing them all in one string and then places then one at a time so that i can attach them to a path....sence the command filecopy needs a source and a dest.....
ok i then have code that searches all three folders for me looking to find the file from the textbox in one of the three folders......
ok here is the code that i have for all of it.....
Code:
Private Sub CopyFile(ByVal fn As String, ByVal DestDir As String)
'copies file(s) fn.* from 3 fixed directories to destdir
Dim srcDir As String
Dim s As String
If Right$(DestDir, 1) <> "" Then DestDir = DestDir & ""
srcDir = "c:SierraSWAT3Missionssamplemission exture"
s = Dir$(srcDir & fn & ".*")
While Len(s) 'while s is not null
FileCopy srcDir & fn, DestDir & fn
s = Dir$ 'get another file
Wend
srcDir = "c:SierraSWAT3Missionssamplemission exturedecals"
s = Dir$(srcDir & fn & ".*")
While Len(s) 'while s is not null
FileCopy srcDir & fn, DestDir & fn
s = Dir$ 'get another file
Wend
srcDir = "c:SierraSWAT3Missionssamplemission exturesprites"
s = Dir$(srcDir & fn & ".*")
While Len(s) 'while s is not null
FileCopy srcDir & fn, DestDir & fn
s = Dir$ 'get another file
Wend
End Sub
Private Sub Command5_Click()
Dim i As Integer
Dim names As String
Dim aFn() As String 'array of strings
names = Text1.Text 'collect the names into a single string
'PRESUMABLY you've separated the names somehow, maybe by crlf or tabs or spaces or commas.
' If not, you got a problem....
aFn = Split(names, vbCrLf) 'assumes filenames are separated by spaces
For i = 0 To UBound(aFn)
If Len(aFn(i)) Then 'simple error check
CopyFile aFn(i), "c: extures"
End If
Next i
End Sub
can anyone look at this and tell me why it wont do anything....im not getting an error but its not copying the texture files over either......ive racked my brain till im blue from frustratiuon on this....one thing is that im preaty new to vb and im not use to working with private subs unless they are used in the same event im doing.....thanks everyone in advance

Copying Files To Program Files Folder During Setup
Hi I have modified some VB source code of a tool we had built for us.
All the mods look great but when replace the existing .exe with the one I have created (on the install CD) and install the application it doesn't work.
This is because the VB mods I done open 3 new text based file that MUST be in the applications program files directory for the app to work.
I dont want to create an new installshield because I dont have the software, the current installsheid installs MDAC and some other things and this is all new to me!!
What would be the easiest way to create another setup.exe to first run the original setup.exe then copy these 3 text based files to say c:program files
ewapp?
I could write some vb to copy the files from CD to program files directory.
any good free aps available to do the above??
Any help welcome
Thanks

Listing All Files In A Folder, Including Files In Subfolders...
I'm trying to obtain a list of all files in a folder, im currently just looping through a DirLists "List" property and setting this folder to a FileList, then getting the filenames, but... that doesnt get files in all subfolders... ie...
Code:
For i = -1 To Dir1.ListCount - 1
File1 = Dir1.List(i)
For j = 0 To File1.ListCount - 1
List1.AddItem File1.List(j)
Next j
Next i
I dont mind having to use these list controls because i need them on my form anyway, I've had a look at the file system object for this purpose, but I can't work out how to do it >_<
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Grant "List Folder Contents" Instead Of "Read" Permissions On Folder
We can grant a user to "List Folder Contents" by manually editting the Security settings, but if we want to do so with CACLS command, we can only grant "Read" (minimum) permissions to the user.
e.g.
C:>cacls c: est /T /E /C /P Guests:R
How can we grant a user to "List Folder Contents" programmatically?

Read Through Outlook 2000 Folder
I am using VB6 and MAPIMessage and MAPI Session controls to look through my email for specific email with a specific subject. I have the inbox process working but I can only read my inbox emails and not those in folders. Is this even possible?
I have posted the general code I am using below.
Thanks for any advice.
VB Code:
'Connect to the e-mail system MAPISession1.SignOn'Link messages to the session MAPIMessages1.SessionID = MAPISession1.SessionID'Set up a collection of messages - all those from Inbox MAPIMessages1.Fetch'Specifies the message order when populating the message set with messages from the Inbox'True = first in, first out; False based on user's Inbox MAPIMessages1.FetchSorted = True' Show how many there are iCnt = MAPIMessages1.MsgCount For iOuterLoop = 0 To iCnt 'CODE ......................Next iOuterLoop'end the session MAPISession1.SignOff
Is this even the best way of doing this? Also, does anyone know if I can move emails after I read them?

Copy File In A Read-only Folder
Hi,
I am developing an Access application and i need to solve this problem:
in a form the user can copy a file in a folder of the lan but the file can not be modified after he has copied it.
If I set the user permission in the folder as read-only, of course I get an error when use CopyFile of File System Object.
If I set the attribute of the file as vbReadonly, the user could change it.
I don't want to map the folder with a special user in the code, because the user is already logged.
Thanks for helps and ideas

Loop Through Folder To Change .txt Files To .xls Files
This seems to be a topic of great discussion...But I can't seem to find what I'm looking for...(And now you know how U2 got the title to their song)
I have a folder on my desktop with 3 years worth of daily .txt files that I need to convert to .xls files...
I have consulted 3 forums, 2 books and numerous experts...but have found no solutions to this task.
This is as close as I can get...(with the help of the previous mentioned sources) What am I missing...
Will someone please help me see what I'm doing wrong.
Code:
Sub ChangeFilesToExcel()
Dim SourceBookName As String
With ThisWorkbook
ChDrive "C:"
ChDir "C:Documents and Settings 123456DesktopDaily Files"
End With
SourceBookName = Dir("*.txt")
While SourceBookName <> ""
Application.StatusBar = SourceBookName
Call macro6(SourceBookName)
SourceBookName = Dir
Wend
End Sub
Code:
Sub macro6(SourceBookName As String)
Dim WB As Workbook

Display Files All Files In A Folder, Except For .asp Page Itself
I have a question of which i have no idea if it can be accomplished.
The following script shows me all files that are in the folder "/here/okido/", as link on an .asp page.
Quote:
<%
dim IISFOLDER
IISFOLDER = Server.MapPath("/Here/okido/")
Dim fso, folder, File, Files, sFileDetails
Set fso = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set folder = fso.GetFolder(IISFOLDER)
Set Files = folder.Files
For Each File in Files
%>
<b>
<a href = '/Partitions/Joucomatic/<%= File.Name %>' target = '_blank'> <%= File.Name %>
</a>
</b>
<br />
<%
Next
Set folder = Nothing
Set fso = Nothing
%>
Unquote
I have 2 problems:
1.: Each time i wish to use this page in another folder, i have to manually change the folders location ("here/okido/") in the script.
Is there a way to have it automatically show the files of the folder that it is in, without having to change the script all the time?
2.: if i put the asp page in the folder i wish to view the files from, it shows itself in between the files. Can this script be adjusted so it doesn't display the asp page itself?
Thanks in advance for your help

Read Content Of Network Printer Folder
I have been looking for an answer to this question for a few weeks. It seems like it should be easy but so far no luck. I would like to be able to read the content of a network folder containing available printers in to a combo or list box.
The way our structure is set up we have hundreds of printers so to find a network printer you first have to know what server its on. It could be on one of 50 or so different servers. Generally what you do is go to Run type the server name i.e. \priter location –typ- number (\b-1-bw-lexmark-675) then double click on the printer you want so it adds it to your local list. What I’m trying to do is allow the user to open the network folder containing available printers and save the printer they choose to a DB. The DB will allow them to assign an associative name that means something to them. Such as “printer in b-12 near coffee machine”. I have all the coding I need except for how to read the network printer server file for the friendly names of the printers. Hope this makes sense. Also I’m just getting started in using VB6 so I may not have all the correct terminology when trying to explain my goal. Thanks for helping.
