I searched everywhere for this error, changing the manifest file of the program to run as administrator but nothing changed, im making a program for myself to get video streaming links where i put the first part of it in the textbox1 and the second part on the textbox2 these get put together and a number for the episode gets added but when i try to save a txt file with all the links i cant save it because the access is denied.

The big thing I saw was use a SaveFileDialog rather than a FolderBrowserDialog. But there's a lot more you can clean up, too:
Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim ep As Integer
If String.IsNullOrWhitespace(TextBox1.Text) OrElse
String.IsNullOrWhitespace(TextBox2.Text) OrElse
Not Integer.TryParse(TextBox3.Text, ep) Then
MsgBox("You need to fill the requested inputs!")
Exit Sub
End If
Dim sfd As New SaveFileDialog()
sfd.InitialDirectory = Environment.SpecialFolder.DesktopDirectory
If sfd.ShowDialog() <> Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then Exit Sub
Dim names() As String =
Enumerable.Range(1, ep).
Select(Function(e) String.Format("{0}{1:00}{2}{3}", TextBox1.Text, e, TextBox2.Text, vbCrLf)).
ToArray()
Dim result As String = String.Join("", names)
Label4.Text &= result
File.WriteAllText(sfd.FileName, Label4.Text)
TextBox1.Text = ""
TextBox2.Text = ""
TextBox3.Text = ""
End Sub
The meat of the method is this code:
Enumerable.Range(1, ep).
Select(Function(e) String.Format("{0}{1:00}{2}{3}", TextBox1.Text, e, TextBox2.Text, vbCrLf)).
ToArray()
It uses the Enumerable.Range() function to generate a sequence of integers from 1 to the number of episodes parsed earlier into the ep variable from TextBox3. Then it uses the IEnumerable<T>.Select() function to create a projection of those numbers to the desired strings. Select() accepts a delegate argument, which was supplied here as lambda expression. This lambda expression uses String.Format() to put each string together. Specifically, the episode number goes in the {1:00} placeholder, where the :00 portion is a format string to guarantee at least two digits. Then we call .ToArray() to roll it all up in a structure that will be compatible with String.Join().
I Managed to make it work but if i want to use it again without closing the form the button doesnt do anything.

First time posting here, although I'm a frequent visitor when I'm looking for answers. I am new to VB and programming.
My problem is this. I had this figured out in VBA, but I want to convert my "program" to a standalone executable with VB (using Visual Studio 2015)
I want to keep track of certain keypresses done on a textbox, and so far I figured out something that works, but it seems messy.
Can anyone think of a better way of doing
Public Class Form1
Private Sub TextBox1_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As KeyPressEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.KeyPress
Select Case UCase(e.KeyChar) 'For capturing keypresses and adding them
Case "W" : Label3.Text = Val(Label3.Text) + 1
Case "R" : Label4.Text = Val(Label4.Text) + 1
End Select
End Sub
Private Sub TextBox1_TextChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.TextChanged
TextBox1.Text = "" 'Clears the text box after each keypress
End Sub
Public Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim WcountA As Integer
Dim RcountA As Integer
Dim WcountB As Integer
Dim RcountB As Integer
Dim Wavg As Single
Dim Ravg As Single
Select Case Button1.Text
Case "Finish A" 'Finishes first count and stores results in labels
WcountA = Convert.ToInt32(Label3.Text)
RcountA = Convert.ToInt32(Label4.Text)
Button1.Text = "Finish B"
Label5.Text = WcountA
Label7.Text = RcountA
TextBox1.Focus()
Label3.Text = ""
Label4.Text = ""
Case "Finish B" 'Finishes second count and stores in labels
WcountB = Convert.ToInt32(Label3.Text)
RcountB = Convert.ToInt32(Label4.Text)
With Button1
.Text = "Finished"
.Enabled = False
End With
Label6.Text = WcountB
Label8.Text = RcountB
Label3.Text = ""
Label4.Text = ""
WcountA = Label5.Text
RcountA = Label7.Text
WcountB = Label6.Text
RcountB = Label8.Text
Wavg = (WcountA + WcountB) / 2
Ravg = (RcountA + RcountB) / 2
MsgBox("W average = " & Wavg & vbNewLine & "R average = " & Ravg)
End Select
End Sub
End Class
On the form I have the textbox that logs the keypress event, labels that increase by 1 with each specific keypess ("W" and "R"), a button that changes its function with each click(finish first count, finish second count) and some labels I had to use to store the first and second count for the final calculation.
Any suggestion will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
First of al, you need to take out the counters of the key pres handler like so;
Because they are gone every time the Button1_Click sub ends.
Public Class Form1
Dim WcountA As Integer
Dim RcountA As Integer
Dim WcountB As Integer
Dim RcountB As Integer
Dim Wavg As Single
Dim Ravg As Single
Private Sub TextBox1_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As KeyPressEventArgs) Handles TextBox1.KeyPress
Select Case UCase(e.KeyChar) 'For capturing keypresses and adding them
Case "W" : Label3.Text = Val(Label3.Text) + 1
Case "R" : Label4.Text = Val(Label4.Text) + 1
End Select
End Sub
Private Sub TextBox1_TextChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.TextChanged
TextBox1.Text = "" 'Clears the text box after each keypress
End Sub
Public Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Select Case Button1.Text
Case "Finish A" 'Finishes first count and stores results in labels
WcountA = Convert.ToInt32(Label3.Text)
RcountA = Convert.ToInt32(Label4.Text)
Button1.Text = "Finish B"
Label5.Text = WcountA
Label7.Text = RcountA
TextBox1.Focus()
Label3.Text = ""
Label4.Text = ""
Case "Finish B" 'Finishes second count and stores in labels
WcountB = Convert.ToInt32(Label3.Text)
RcountB = Convert.ToInt32(Label4.Text)
With Button1
.Text = "Finished"
.Enabled = False
End With
Label6.Text = WcountB
Label8.Text = RcountB
Label3.Text = ""
Label4.Text = ""
WcountA = Label5.Text
RcountA = Label7.Text
WcountB = Label6.Text
RcountB = Label8.Text
Wavg = (WcountA + WcountB) / 2
Ravg = (RcountA + RcountB) / 2
MsgBox("W average = " & Wavg & vbNewLine & "R average = " & Ravg)
End Select
End Sub
End Class
This is what I ended up doing, works better and looks cleaner. Thanks Lectere for pointing me to the right path!

I managed to use loops for clearing labels, and also made pressing Enter during the KeyPress event be treated as a button click.
Loving this feeling of accomplishment when I finally figure something out on something new to me! Love pages like this one where one can learn so much!
I am creating a program which someone can input a search into a textbox and then narrow down the results using a series of comboboxes (or just use the comboboxes to search through everything).
The program looks like this: form 1
I have made the options in the 2nd combobox change using the following code:
Private Sub ComboBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles ComboBox1.SelectedIndexChanged
Dim type As String = ComboBox1.SelectedItem
Dim make As String = ComboBox2.SelectedItem
Dim model As String = ComboBox3.SelectedItem
Dim version As String = TextBox2.Text
Dim memory As String = TextBox3.Text
Dim problem As String = TextBox4.Text
Dim casenumber As Integer = Int(Rnd() * 9999) + 1000
If type = "Phone" Then
ComboBox2.Items.Clear()
Dim file As New System.IO.StreamReader("E: \phone.txt")
For i = 1 To 20
q(i) = file.ReadLine() & vbNewLine
ComboBox2.Items.Add(q(i))
Next
ElseIf type = "Tablet" Then
ComboBox2.Items.Clear()
Dim file As New System.IO.StreamReader("E:\tablet.txt")
For i = 1 To 20
q(i) = file.ReadLine() & vbNewLine
ComboBox2.Items.Add(q(i))
Next
ElseIf type = "Desktop computer" Then
ComboBox2.Items.Clear()
Dim file As New System.IO.StreamReader("E:\pc.txt")
For i = 1 To 20
q(i) = file.ReadLine() & vbNewLine
ComboBox2.Items.Add(q(i))
Next
ElseIf type = "Laptop" Then
ComboBox2.Items.Clear()
Dim file As New System.IO.StreamReader("E:\laptop.txt")
For i = 1 To 20
q(i) = file.ReadLine() & vbNewLine
ComboBox2.Items.Add(q(i))
Next
'Else
'Dim objwriter As System.IO.StreamWriter
'objwriter = My.Computer.FileSystem.OpenTextFileWriter("E:\unknown.txt", True)
'File.AppendText("type:" And ComboBox1.Text And "make" & ComboBox2.Text And "model: " & ComboBox3.Text And "version: " And TextBox2.Text & "memory" And TextBox3.Text)
End If
End Sub
However,the code won't work to change what is in the 3rd box. I have repeated the following code for each option:
Private Sub ComboBox2_SelectedIndexChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles ComboBox3.SelectedIndexChanged
Dim type As String = ComboBox1.SelectedItem
Dim make As String = ComboBox2.SelectedItem
Dim model As String = ComboBox3.SelectedItem
Dim version As String = TextBox2.Text
Dim memory As String = TextBox3.Text
Dim problem As String = TextBox4.Text
If type = "Phone" Then
If make = "apple" Then
ComboBox2.Items.Clear()
Dim file As New System.IO.StreamReader("E:\apple.txt")
For i = 1 To 20
q(i) = file.ReadLine() & vbNewLine
ComboBox3.Items.Add(q(i))
Next
ElseIf make = "samsung" Then
ComboBox2.Items.Clear()
Dim file As New System.IO.StreamReader("E:\samsung.txt")
For i = 1 To 20
q(i) = file.ReadLine() & vbNewLine
ComboBox3.Items.Add(q(i))
Next
ElseIf make = "htc" Then
ComboBox2.Items.Clear()
Dim file As New System.IO.StreamReader("E:\htc.txt")
For i = 1 To 20
q(i) = file.ReadLine() & vbNewLine
ComboBox3.Items.Add(q(i))
Next
ElseIf make = "Nokia" Then
ComboBox2.Items.Clear()
Dim file As New System.IO.StreamReader("E:\Nokia.txt")
For i = 1 To 20
q(i) = file.ReadLine() & vbNewLine
ComboBox3.Items.Add(q(i))
Next
ElseIf make = "Blackberry" Then
ComboBox2.Items.Clear()
Dim file As New System.IO.StreamReader("E:\blackberry.txt")
For i = 1 To 20
q(i) = file.ReadLine() & vbNewLine
ComboBox3.Items.Add(q(i))
Next
I have checked the obvious problems like putting the wrong text file names and capital letters etc, but can't get this to work whatever I do.
Does anyone know why the third combobox remains blank even when both conditions are met (both combobox1 and 2 have the right thing selected)? Any suggestion would be much appreciated.
Firstly I suspect that this code :-
Dim type As String = ComboBox1.SelectedItem.ToString
Dim make As String = ComboBox2.SelectedItem.ToString
Dim model As String = ComboBox3.SelectedItem.ToString
Dim version As String = TextBox2.Text
Dim memory As String = TextBox3.Text
Dim problem As String = TextBox4.Text
shouldn't be in each if your events. They should really be placed somewhere that executes after all the information has been chosen yes?
OK for a start paste this into a text file called "device type.txt"
Phone,E:\phone.txt
Tablet,E:\tablet.txt
Desktop Computer,E:\pc.txt
Laptop,E:\laptop.txt
Then edit your phones.txt file and the rest of the above files to match that format e.g this phone.txt file
Apple,E:\apple.txt
Samsung,E:\samsung.txt
Htc,E:\htc.txt
Nokia,E\nokia.txt
Blackberry,E:\blackberry.txt
and so on for each item that links to another file. For the last files in the tree - which I presume are the files containing a list of the models for each brand of phone, just leave them as a simple list. No commas or anything after each model.
Use this code to do the populating of each ComboBox
Private Sub PopulateComboBox(ByRef cboBox As ComboBox, ByVal itemSource As String)
RemoveHandler ComboBox1.SelectedIndexChanged, AddressOf ComboBox1_SelectedIndexChanged
RemoveHandler ComboBox2.SelectedIndexChanged, AddressOf ComboBox2_SelectedIndexChanged
RemoveHandler ComboBox3.SelectedIndexChanged, AddressOf ComboBox3_SelectedIndexChanged
Dim devices As New List(Of item)
Dim csvFlag As Boolean = False
cboBox.Items.Clear()
Using MyReader As New Microsoft.VisualBasic.
FileIO.TextFieldParser(itemSource)
If MyReader.ReadLine.Contains(",") Then csvFlag = True
End Using
Using MyReader As New Microsoft.VisualBasic.
FileIO.TextFieldParser(itemSource)
If csvFlag Then
MyReader.TextFieldType = FileIO.FieldType.Delimited
MyReader.SetDelimiters(",")
End If
Dim currentRow As String() = {"", ""}
While Not MyReader.EndOfData
Try
If csvFlag Then
currentRow = MyReader.ReadFields()
Dim tempItem As New item
tempItem.item = currentRow(0)
tempItem.fileName = currentRow(1)
devices.Add(tempItem)
Else
currentRow(0) = MyReader.ReadLine
Dim tempItem As New item
tempItem.item = currentRow(0)
tempItem.fileName = ""
devices.Add(tempItem)
End If
Catch ex As Microsoft.VisualBasic.
FileIO.MalformedLineException
MsgBox("Line " & ex.Message & "is not valid and will be skipped.")
End Try
End While
End Using
If csvFlag Then
cboBox.DataSource = devices
cboBox.DisplayMember = "item"
cboBox.ValueMember = "fileName"
Else
cboBox.DataSource = devices
cboBox.DisplayMember = "item"
cboBox.ValueMember = "item"
End If
AddHandler ComboBox1.SelectedIndexChanged, AddressOf ComboBox1_SelectedIndexChanged
AddHandler ComboBox2.SelectedIndexChanged, AddressOf ComboBox2_SelectedIndexChanged
AddHandler ComboBox3.SelectedIndexChanged, AddressOf ComboBox3_SelectedIndexChanged
End Sub
What it does is firstly check to see if the file being read is a comma-delimited file.
If it is delimited, it will read the file referred to in itemSource and expect a pair of values. The first value is what you see in the box(the DisplayMember), and the second value is what clicking on the box actually returns(the ValueMember)
If the file isn't comma-delimited, it will just read each line and add it to the combobox so that it acts normally (this will be important for the last files in the tree)
Next you need these methods for the ComboBoxes
Private Sub PopulateComboBox1()
PopulateComboBox(ComboBox1, "E:\device type.txt")
End Sub
Private Sub ComboBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles ComboBox1.SelectedIndexChanged
PopulateComboBox(ComboBox2, ComboBox1.SelectedValue.ToString)
End Sub
Private Sub ComboBox2_SelectedIndexChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles ComboBox2.SelectedIndexChanged
PopulateComboBox(ComboBox3, ComboBox2.SelectedValue.ToString)
End Sub
Private Sub ComboBox3_SelectedIndexChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles ComboBox3.SelectedIndexChanged
PopulateComboBox(ComboBox3, ComboBox2.SelectedValue.ToString)
End Sub
Call the method to populate Combobox1 possibly in the form's load event.
For some reason while I call a specific form in my program it comes up with
An unhandled exception of type 'System.InvalidOperationException' occurred in CinemaBooking2.exe
Additional information: An error occurred creating the form. See Exception.InnerException for details. The error is: Conversion from string "" to type 'Integer' is not valid.

This error only appears for this form and no others, so I am unsure of if it is something to do with the form, or if the form has corrupted in some way.
Reader.ReadLine returns strings. I see several places in your code where you are trying to directly assign string values to variables that are not strings. for example:
booAdmin = Reader.ReadLine
This should probably be:
booAdmin = Boolean.Parse(Reader.ReadLine)
Any place where you are trying to read an integer should be:
someIntegerVariable = Integer.Parse(Reader.Readline)
If you want to be even more same, use TryParse instead of Parse, but that will have slightly different semantics.
I have a problem.
Now program working like this:
Reading binary file bytes. &H1E and &H1F Allowed characters only :A123456789
If in file is B or C or D or E or F....... textbox1 = bad file
That's working. Now I want to add verification in &H10.
Allowed characters only 26
If other characters textbox1 = bad file
Imports System.IO
Imports System.IO.SeekOrigin
Public Class Form1
Dim charactersAllowed As String = "A123456789"
Dim swap As String = "26"
Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim OFD As New OpenFileDialog
Dim fullFile() As Byte
With OFD
.Filter = "Binary files (*.bin)|*.bin"
End With
If OFD.ShowDialog = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
fullFile = File.ReadAllBytes(OFD.FileName)
TextBox1.AppendText(fullFile(&H1E).ToString("X2") & " ")
TextBox1.AppendText(fullFile(&H1F).ToString("X2"))
TextBox4.AppendText(fullFile(&H10).ToString("X2"))
End If
Private Sub TextBox1_TextChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.TextChanged
Dim theText As String = TextBox1.Text
Dim Letter As String
Dim SelectionIndex As Integer = TextBox1.SelectionStart
Dim Change As Integer
For x As Integer = 0 To TextBox1.Text.Length - 1
Letter = TextBox1.Text.Substring(x, 1)
If charactersAllowed.Contains(Letter) = False Then
theText = theText.Replace(Letter, String.Empty)
Change = 1
End If
Next
TextBox1.Text = theText
TextBox1.Select(SelectionIndex - Change, 0)
End Sub
Private Sub TextBox4_TextChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles TextBox4.TextAlignChanged
Dim check As String = TextBox4.Text
Dim check2 As String
Dim check3 As Integer = TextBox4.SelectionStart
Dim check4 As Integer
For x As Integer = 0 To TextBox4.Text.Length - 1
check2 = TextBox4.Text.Substring(x, 1)
If swap.Contains(check2) = False Then
check = check.Replace(check2, String.Empty)
check4 = 1
End If
Next
TextBox1.Text = check
TextBox1.Select(check3 - check4, 0)
End Sub
Hard to decode, but an obvious approach is to prevent editing when the byte has the wrong value:
If OFD.ShowDialog = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
fullFile = File.ReadAllBytes(OFD.FileName)
If fullFile(&H10) <> 26 Then
TextBox1.Text = "Bad file"
TextBox1.Enabled = False
TextBox4.Enabled = False
Else
TextBox1.Enabled = True
TextBox4.Enabled = True
'' etc...
End If
End If

I'm writing some code for a calculator and I keep getting this error. I have the math functions in another class but the variables from form1 are not accessible. Below is my code.
I've also tried changing my Dim variables to public but that also doesn't work.
Public Class Form1
'create a value to keep track of whether the calculation is complete so the calculator can revert to zero for new calculations
Dim state As Integer
'create values to store information on numbers and signs entered as well as the answer returned

Dim two As Double
Dim ans As Double

Sub divide()
ans = one / two

state = 1
End Sub
End Class
state is a private variable in Form1. You can't access from code outside of Form1. Your Math class cannot reference state. Remove the calls to state from the Math class code. An outside class should not be changing the state of another object in anycase.
Try this instead:
Public Class accounting
Dim Operand1 As Double
Dim Operand2 As Double
Dim [Operator] As String
These are the button from 1 - 0
Private Sub Button6_Click_1(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button9.Click, Button8.Click, Button7.Click, Button6.Click, Button5.Click, Button4.Click, Button19.Click, Button12.Click, Button11.Click, Button10.Click
txtans.Text = txtans.Text & sender.text
End Sub
This button is for period/point
Private Sub Button18_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button18.Click
If InStr(txtans.Text, ".") > 0 Then
Exit Sub
Else
txtans.Text = txtans.Text & "."
End If
End Sub
This button is for clear or "C" in calculator
Private Sub Button20_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button20.Click
txtans.Text = ""
End Sub
These are for add,subtract,divide, and multiply
Private Sub Buttonadd_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button13.Click
Operand1 = Val(txtans.Text)
txtans.Text = ""
txtans.Focus()
[Operator] = "+"

End Sub
Private Sub Buttonmultiply_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button14.Click
Operand1 = Val(txtans.Text)
txtans.Text = ""
txtans.Focus()

End Sub
This button is for "=" sign
Private Sub Buttoneequal_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button17.Click
Dim Result As Double
Operand2 = Val(txtans.Text)
'If [Operator] = "+" Then
' Result = Operand1 + Operand2
'ElseIf [Operator] = "-" Then
' Result = Operand1 - Operand2
'ElseIf [Operator] = "/" Then
' Result = Operand1 / Operand2
'ElseIf [Operator] = "*" Then
' Result = Operand1 * Operand2
'End If
Select Case [Operator]
Case "+"
Result = Operand1 + Operand2
txtans.Text = Result.ToString("#,###.00")
Case "-"
Result = Operand1 - Operand2
txtans.Text = Result.ToString("#,###.00")
Case "/"
Result = Operand1 / Operand2
txtans.Text = Result.ToString("#,###.00")
Case "*"
Result = Operand1 * Operand2
txtans.Text = Result.ToString("#,###.00")
End Select
txtans.Text = Result.ToString("#,###.00")
End Sub
This button is for backspace effect.
Private Sub Buttondel_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button21.Click
If txtans.Text < " " Then
txtans.Text = Mid(txtans.Text, 1, Len(txtans.Text) - 1 + 1)
Else
txtans.Text = Mid(txtans.Text, 1, Len(txtans.Text) - 1)
End If
End Sub
Note that "txtans.text" is the textbox where the user inputs and where the output shows.
