I am trying to get the save/open dialog figured out. I am able open the save
dialog but when I put in a file name (whatever.txt) and save the file does
save with the name but it is blank. Below is what I have code so far.
Dim phonestreamwrit er As StreamWriter
Dim responsedialogr esults As DialogResult
SaveFileDialog1 .InitialDirecto ry = Application.Sta rtupPath
responsedialogr esults = SaveFileDialog1 .ShowDialog
If responsedialogr esults <> DialogResult.Ca ncel Then
phonestreamwrit er = New StreamWriter(Sa veFileDialog1.F ileName)
End If

You open the StreamWriter which creates the file, but you also have to write
something to it. For example, if you added the following line after you
create the StreamWriter:
phonestreamwrit er.WriteLine("H ello, world")
phonestreamwrit er.Flush()
phonestreamwrit er.Close()
the underlying file would have the content "Hello, world" inside the file.
You have to define what is supposed to go into the file. The save/open
dialog is only used to query the user for the file path.

Hi VB fans
I'm working on a relatively large project in VB6 with about a dozen
forms, including graphs, labels, text boxes, etc. The software itself
is actually a flow simulator with more or less complex technical
calculations, several input variables. I would like to equipp the
starting panel with the usual New, Open, Save, Save As, Close etc.
menus (like in Excel, or Word, etc.) What is the best way to
accomplish Save, or Save As?...

Hello,
I have a requirement wherein, a user clicks on a file name in an
ASP.NET web application, and the file should automatically be
downloaded (Without showing the "Open", "Save As") in the local machine
at a pre defined path (path defined in the registry), and launch the
file in its associated application.
I think this can be done through ActiveX Controls, but i dont know how
to create ActiveX controls in .NET??

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
