I need help Programing a new program.

[Aaron Rogers118]

I need to know how to make the icon, program a media player, and program a Web-browser. Any Ideas?

[brandonio21]

Well, this seems like a very large job. Well, WebBrowser tutorials and icon tutorials can be found here:


WebBrowser:

This reply made me realize that I talked really slow in my older videos.

[Aaron Rogers118]

Thanks! Any thing on Medea players or do you not know the code for that one yet?

[brandonio21]

Hm, I don't really know the code for that yet, sorry!

One more question.
Is it possible to search For a file and open it threw Web Browser 1? If not then haw do you search for a file and have it open automatically or show up on Panel 2? This is the cod that I used

Code:

Private Sub Button1_Click_1(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

        If CheckBox1.Checked = True Then
            WebBrowser1.Navigate(FileOpen, ComboBox1.Text)
        Else
            If ComboBox1.Text = "" Then
                MsgBox("Please enter website", MsgBoxStyle.Critical, "Brouser-Bus")
            Else
                WebBrowser1.Navigate(ComboBox1.Text)
            End If
        End If
    End Sub

(Note:I'm new at Visual Basic and I lurn fast but

Code:

WebBrowser1.Navigate(FileOpen, ComboBox1.Text)

didn't Work.) <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_sad.gif" alt="" title="Sad" /><!-- s -->

[brandonio21]

I do not know what the variable FileOpen is doing... but remove that from your code, and it should work!

[Aaron Rogers118]

I,m Trying to git it to search and automatically view a file in WebBrouser1.Is that possible?

[brandonio21]

Well, what do you mean by search. Do you want the user to find the file themselves?

[Aaron Rogers118]

No, when I type in the File I wanna open into ComboBox1 I want WebBrowser1 to find it and automatically open it by itself threw WebBrowser1.... That is, If it's Possible.

[brandonio21]

Well, This is kind of tedious to do, but you would need to scroll through every file in the computer, and see if it has the same name as your String "FileOpen". Here is the code that you are looking for:

Code:

Dim file As String = "readme.txt"
        Dim d As New System.IO.DirectoryInfo("C:/")
        Dim f As System.IO.FileInfo()
        f = d.GetFiles(file, IO.SearchOption.AllDirectories)
        If f.Length > 1 Then
            'There are multiple occurences of this file
        Else
            For Each element In f
                WebBrowser1.Navigate(element.FullName)
            Next
        End If

[Aaron Rogers118]

Access to the path 'C:\$Recycle.Bin\S-1-5-21-2123078216-1120606443-2303232418-500\' is denied.

Code:

f = d.GetFiles(file, IO.SearchOption.AllDirectories)

[brandonio21]

Just surround the statement with a try/catch block, and when it catches an error just

Code:

continue For

[Aaron Rogers118]

What's a try/catch block?

[brandonio21]

It is a segment of code that catches all errors in a code, so for example:

Code:

Try
Dim file As String = "readme.txt"
        Dim d As New System.IO.DirectoryInfo("C:/")
        Dim f As System.IO.FileInfo()
        f = d.GetFiles(file, IO.SearchOption.AllDirectories)
        If f.Length > 1 Then
            'There are multiple occurences of this file
        Else
            For Each element In f
                WebBrowser1.Navigate(element.FullName)
            Next
        End If
Catch ex As Exception
   Continue For
End Try
