I found that if I do a select from .csv file, it won't work if the filename
has "." or "-" in them such as:
PAYROLL.ALLOC.R PT_8511_3-15-07.CSV
I am doing the following:
Dim ConStr As String = _
"Provider=Micro soft.Jet.OLEDB. 4.0;Data Source=" & _
path & ";Extended Properties=""Te xt;HDR=No;FMT=D elimited\"""
Dim conn As New OleDb.OleDbConn ection(ConStr)
Dim da2 As New OleDb.OleDbData Adapter("Select * from " &
"PAYROLL.ALLOC. RPT_8511_3-15-07.CSV", conn)
da2.Fill(DTDepa rtment)
If I replace 1st 2 periods (".") and dashes with underscores it works fine.
But this works:
If f.Exists(path & "PAYROLL.ALLOC. RPT_8511_3-15-07.CSV") Then
And this works:
objStreamWriter = New StreamWriter(
"PAYROLL.ALLOC. RPT_8511_3-15-07.CSV")
I assume that the periods and dashes are illegal characters for a file name
in the Select statement but why not in the other cases?
The problem is that I am getting this file from a Java system and that is
what they are calling their filename. Is there a way around this?
Thanks,
Tom

Hi.
Recently I made a small script to do some file transferring (among other
things). I wanted to monitor the progress of the file transfer, so I needed
to know the size of the files I was transferring. Finding out how to get
this information took some time (reading the manuals - googling did not
prove worthwhile). Anyway, I did eventually figure out how to do it (there
are a few ways, including os.path.getsize(filename)).

A lot of Microsoft installers for example, and also installers of other companies, do not work because they handle paths in the following manner:

I am using the command:

of the time it works, but occasionally, typically as code changes are

I've got a rather strange issue occuring.
I used forms based .NET authentication, although I'm also setting some
session variables when people login.
However, I've found when people use one of my webform pages which includes a
button that pops up a window where you can upload files, if you upload files
in this popup window, it seems to somehow clear out all of the session
variables and the users get logged out. However, if...

Hi
We are rewriting the libc for the 64 bit version of lcc-win
and we have added a new field in the FILE structure:
char *FileName;
fopen() will save the file name and an accessor function
will return the file name given a FILE *.
Questions:
What would be the best name for this function?

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
