So where does the "Cam" prefix in the file name come from.
The code you posted doesn't show it.
"cmbTime.Text" what is this cmbTime object, it sounds like that's where the
bug is.

It would help if you gave a clearer and concrete example, like
From ===> To
C:\Projects\Darryl\Queue Review Files\2-24\Cam7\01.jpg ===>
C:\Projects\Darryl\Queue Review Files\2-24\Cam7\Cam7-20060224170000-01.jpg
and explained where the parts of Cam7-20060224170000-01 come from, like
Cam7 is the folder
20060224170000 is the date and ???
01 is the image name -- or whatever.
KitKat,
I adviced you to make your procedure more maintainable and showable to
replace that complete datetime stuff by just an array created by a string
split, you ignored that any reason?

It is part of the jpg file name that won't change not a folder.
"Cam1-33333335649.jpg" my code will look in the right folder but will only
look for files with Cam1 in the file name, not Cam2, Cam4, Cam6, Cam7 or

The reason anyone not really able to help you is that you are not giving us
the full information.
You indicate that an exception occurs at the line:
pcb.Image = Image.FromFile(String.Format(folder, i))
What is the exception?
What value is String.Format(folder, i) producing?
To find out, try:
Console.Writeline(String.Format(folder, i))
at the appropriate point.
You also have a ComboBox? (cmbTime) from which you are getting the last part
of the filename. What is the value you are getting from that control?
When you have the answers to these questions, come back and we might be able
to help you.

No....
I think that you are misinterpreting the questions.
You have 2 Comboxes.
One ComboBox (cmbDate) has some values like "2-24" etc.
The other ComboBox (cmbTime) has (I suspect) some filenames that you think
are like "20060224165649-01.jpg" etc.
From what you are reporting I suspect that the values in cmbTime actually
have values more like "Cam1-20060224165649-01.jpg" etc.
Until we know what your exact values are we are shooting in the dark.

What is the exception?
What value is String.Format(folder, i) producing?
To find out, try:

You also have a ComboBox? (cmbTime) from which you are getting the last

YES you are right! Perhaps the combo box is keeping that file.
Okay.
1. User selects from combobox Date "February 24, 2006" which equals the 2-24
folder.
2. This populates another combo box with files from the default folder,
Cam1, so there will be tons of
Cam1-20060224165648-01.jpg
Cam1-20060224165649-01.jpg
Cam1-20060224165650-01.jpg
Cam1-20060224165651-01.jpg
and so on.
So...I need to take that off, like previously said, a split or something?
take that off and add what the appropiate folder is like Cam6.
I see that must be the problem....can you help me fix this?
Thanks so much Stephany, I appreciate your help as well as everyone else
here.
Thank you for putting up with me.

I think that you are misinterpreting the questions.
You have 2 Comboxes.
One ComboBox (cmbDate) has some values like "2-24" etc.
The other ComboBox (cmbTime) has (I suspect) some filenames that you think
are like "20060224165649-01.jpg" etc.
From what you are reporting I suspect that the values in cmbTime actually
have values more like "Cam1-20060224165649-01.jpg" etc.
Until we know what your exact values are we are shooting in the dark.

So, you are saying that there is a file named Cam2-20060224165648-01.jpg in
the Cam2 folder and a file named Cam3-20060224165648-01.jpg in the Cam3
folder and a file named Cam4-20060224165648-01.jpg in the Cam4 folder etc.?
Or, is the file in the folder called 20060224165648-01.jpg and you are just
prepending the 'Cam1-' so you know what cam it belongs to?
Does the -01 directly before the extension signify anything? Like the cam
number perhaps?

The one I was using to test was:

Cam2-20060224170000-01.jpg
Cam4-20060224170000-01.jpg
Cam6-20060224170000-01.jpg
Cam7-20060224170000-01.jpg
Cam8-20060224170000-01.jpg
sometimes there isn't a picture in that folder but there is of that file.

Yes there is a file in each folder of that format.
Or, is the file in the folder called 20060224165648-01.jpg and you are
just prepending the 'Cam1-' so you know what cam it belongs to?
No, I did try that but I am not adding the Cam2- to the file, it already
exists.
Does the -01 directly before the extension signify anything? Like the cam
number perhaps?
Good question, no it doesn't signify anything so there is file in each
folder with the -01.jpg.
It is broken up like this:
Cam2- (camera view)
20060224 (date-year, month, day)
165648 (time stamp in military time and with seconds 4:56:48)
-01.jpg (no method applied)
Thank you very much.

news:ur**************@TK2MSFTNGP09.phx.gbl... YES you are right! Perhaps the combo box is keeping that file.
Okay.
1. User selects from combobox Date "February 24, 2006" which equals the
2-24 folder.
2. This populates another combo box with files from the default folder,
Cam1, so there will be tons of
Cam1-20060224165648-01.jpg
Cam1-20060224165649-01.jpg
Cam1-20060224165650-01.jpg
Cam1-20060224165651-01.jpg
and so on.
So...I need to take that off, like previously said, a split or something?
take that off and add what the appropiate folder is like Cam6.
I see that must be the problem....can you help me fix this?
Thanks so much Stephany, I appreciate your help as well as everyone else

Thank you for putting up with me.

news:eP**************@TK2MSFTNGP10.phx.gbl... No....
I think that you are misinterpreting the questions.
You have 2 Comboxes.
One ComboBox (cmbDate) has some values like "2-24" etc.
The other ComboBox (cmbTime) has (I suspect) some filenames that you
think are like "20060224165649-01.jpg" etc.
From what you are reporting I suspect that the values in cmbTime
actually have values more like "Cam1-20060224165649-01.jpg" etc.
Until we know what your exact values are we are shooting in the dark.

Got it working....
Dim folder As String = "C:\Projects\Darryl\Queue Review Files\" &
DateTime.ParseExact(cmbDate.SelectedItem.ToString, "MMMM d, yyyy",
Nothing).ToString("M-d") & "\Cam {0}\Cam{0}" &
cmbTime.Text.SubString(cmbTime.Text.IndexOf("-"))
Thanks for helping!

news:%2****************@tk2msftngp13.phx.gbl... So, you are saying that there is a file named Cam2-20060224165648-01.jpg
in the Cam2 folder and a file named Cam3-20060224165648-01.jpg in the Cam3
folder and a file named Cam4-20060224165648-01.jpg in the Cam4 folder
etc.?
Or, is the file in the folder called 20060224165648-01.jpg and you are
just prepending the 'Cam1-' so you know what cam it belongs to?
Does the -01 directly before the extension signify anything? Like the cam
number perhaps?
"KitKat" <ki****@nospam.com> wrote in message
news:ur**************@TK2MSFTNGP09.phx.gbl... YES you are right! Perhaps the combo box is keeping that file.
Okay.
1. User selects from combobox Date "February 24, 2006" which equals the
2-24 folder.
2. This populates another combo box with files from the default folder,
Cam1, so there will be tons of
Cam1-20060224165648-01.jpg
Cam1-20060224165649-01.jpg
Cam1-20060224165650-01.jpg
Cam1-20060224165651-01.jpg
and so on.
So...I need to take that off, like previously said, a split or something?
take that off and add what the appropiate folder is like Cam6.
I see that must be the problem....can you help me fix this?
Thanks so much Stephany, I appreciate your help as well as everyone else
here.
Thank you for putting up with me.

I think that you are misinterpreting the questions.
You have 2 Comboxes.
One ComboBox (cmbDate) has some values like "2-24" etc.
The other ComboBox (cmbTime) has (I suspect) some filenames that you
think are like "20060224165649-01.jpg" etc.
From what you are reporting I suspect that the values in cmbTime
actually have values more like "Cam1-20060224165649-01.jpg" etc.
Until we know what your exact values are we are shooting in the dark.

Thanks for helping Stephany.
The exception is: FileNotFoundException was unhandled
C:\Projects\Darryl\Queue Review Files\2-24\Cam 1\Cam
1-Cam1-20060224165649-01.jpg
cannnot be found, that is because the file is actually:
C:\Projects\Darryl\Queue Review Files\2-24\Cam
1\Cam1-20060224165649-01.jpg
String.Format is producing:
FOLDER:

{0}\Cam1-20060224170000-01.jpg
VALUE: TYPE:
pcb.Image Nothing System. Drawing.Image
From the combo box cmbTime getting the files associated with the date
selected in my combo box cmbDate, which defaults to each Cam 1 folder.
C:\Projects\Darryl\Queue Review Files\2-24\Cam 1
C:\Projects\Darryl\Queue Review Files\2-27\Cam 7\
C:\Projects\Darryl\Queue Review Files\2-28\Cam 7\
is that what you asked? thanks for helping I am really sorry for the
hassle.

Now we are getting somewhere.
Because you are populating the filename combobox from the Cam1 folder, you
need to replace the "Cam1" in the filename and replace it with the
appropriate value otherwise you will always be looking for a Cam1 file no
matter what folder you are looking in.
Try this.
Dim folder As String = "C:\Projects\Darryl\Queue Review Files\" &
DateTime.ParseExact(cmbDate.SelectedItem.ToString, "MMMM d, yyyy",
Nothing).ToString("M-d") & "\Cam {0}\"
For i As Integer = 1 to 8
Dim pcb As PictureBox = ApplicationControls.FindControl(Me, "pcbCam" &
i.ToString)
If Not pcb Is Nothing Then
pcb.Image = Image.FromFile(String.Format(folder, i) &
cmdTime.Text.Replace("Cam1-", "Cam" & i.ToString * "-")
End If
Next
Please make sure that you don't just use this and forget about it. It is
important that you dissect and understand the techniques that you are being
presented with, specifically, the usage of the String.Format shared method
and the usage of the String.replace method. It is also important that you
understand why the final part of the filename string must be built inside
the loop instead of being assigned to the folder variable initially.

Yes there is a file in each folder of that format.
Or, is the file in the folder called 20060224165648-01.jpg and you are

No, I did try that but I am not adding the Cam2- to the file, it already
exists.
Does the -01 directly before the extension signify anything? Like the cam
number perhaps?
Good question, no it doesn't signify anything so there is file in each
folder with the -01.jpg.
It is broken up like this:
Cam2- (camera view)
20060224 (date-year, month, day)
165648 (time stamp in military time and with seconds 4:56:48)
-01.jpg (no method applied)
Thank you very much.

No....
I think that you are misinterpreting the questions.
You have 2 Comboxes.
One ComboBox (cmbDate) has some values like "2-24" etc.
The other ComboBox (cmbTime) has (I suspect) some filenames that you
think are like "20060224165649-01.jpg" etc.
From what you are reporting I suspect that the values in cmbTime
actually have values more like "Cam1-20060224165649-01.jpg" etc.
Until we know what your exact values are we are shooting in the dark.

news:%2****************@TK2MSFTNGP10.phx.gbl... Sorry I am just learning this stuff. Can you show me what you mean? I have
posted my code below. Thanks for your input.
Your code doesn't help. I need to know what you have and what you want, i.e.
"I have three goats and I need cheese".
In other words, the algorithm not the code.
Thank you very much....it really helped talking to someone.

Dim folder As String = "C:\Projects\Darryl\Queue Review Files\" &

Nothing).ToString("M-d") & "\Cam {0}\Cam{0}" &

Thanks for helping!
"Stephany Young" <noone@localhost> wrote in message
news:%2****************@tk2msftngp13.phx.gbl... So, you are saying that there is a file named Cam2-20060224165648-01.jpg
in the Cam2 folder and a file named Cam3-20060224165648-01.jpg in the
Cam3 folder and a file named Cam4-20060224165648-01.jpg in the Cam4
folder etc.?
Or, is the file in the folder called 20060224165648-01.jpg and you are
just prepending the 'Cam1-' so you know what cam it belongs to?
Does the -01 directly before the extension signify anything? Like the
cam number perhaps?
"KitKat" <ki****@nospam.com> wrote in message
news:ur**************@TK2MSFTNGP09.phx.gbl...
YES you are right! Perhaps the combo box is keeping that file.
Okay.
1. User selects from combobox Date "February 24, 2006" which equals the
2-24 folder.
2. This populates another combo box with files from the default folder,
Cam1, so there will be tons of
Cam1-20060224165648-01.jpg
Cam1-20060224165649-01.jpg
Cam1-20060224165650-01.jpg
Cam1-20060224165651-01.jpg
and so on.
So...I need to take that off, like previously said, a split or
something? take that off and add what the appropiate folder is like
Cam6.
I see that must be the problem....can you help me fix this?
Thanks so much Stephany, I appreciate your help as well as everyone
else here.
Thank you for putting up with me.
