saw another thread on this topic, but no solutions were presented, so
here is my question:
i have a c# class library dll that must access a config-like text file.
when using the FileStream constructor, it seems to attempt to open the
file from the directory that the parent process (the one utilizing the
class library) is running from.
in this case it is a classic ASP application, so it is trying to find
the config file in the SYSTEM32 directory.
is there any way for the class library i wrote to access a text file in
it's OWN directory, whereever that might happen to be? instead of
looking in the directory of the parent process?
thanks for any help,
jason 1 1775
You can use a static write only property to set current working folder. And
at the begining of your application you can set it.
public class SomeClass
{
private string path;
public static WorkingPath
{
set
{
path=value;
}
}
}

I have written the following code to search for the right file depending on
the startup file for "Client Access". The menu database that I made will
load the correct config file specific for each "Thin Client". The problem
is that we also use PC's to run the "Client Access" program and under the
following script it will create a match and load the wrong WS file.
I read that you should not use the DIR function but that's that only way I...

I need help closing a CMD window when it is executed from Access.
1) The batch file is called from Access.
2) Access closes,
3) the batch runs a copy of the access database (creating a backup)
4) Once the copy is complete, the batch file opens the Access database
again
5) EXIT should close out the cmd window but it does not execute that

I am pretty much lost here - I am trying to create a managed c++

Hi,
I have a mdb file shared in the LAN. I want to write app that verifies
if it's open.
If the file is not open, then my app can open the file.
if the file is used, then the app won't open it.
I also want this app to have handle to this file, then when the user
stops editting this file, he can close it using this app.

Hello
I'm a network technician in training and I need your help.
I am currently learning how to create and manage the different types of VPNs and I have a question about LAN-to-LAN VPNs.
The last exercise I practiced was to create a LAN-to-LAN VPN between two Pfsense firewalls, by using IPSEC protocols.
I succeeded, with both firewalls in the same network. But I'm wondering if it's possible to do the same thing, with 2 Pfsense firewalls...
