I have created 2 BackgroundWorkers and my second BackgroundWorker seem to not work at all, i have placed a messagebox indicator under "Private Sub BackgroundWorker2_DoWork" and it was triggered but the codess under it were not. Here is the complete code of my BackgroundWorker that is having problems. Is there something that is causing this?
i really need 2 BackgroundWorkers for my program as it is processing tons of files which makes the application hang-up.
Private Sub Button2_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
Try
If BackgroundWorker2.IsBusy <> True Then
BackgroundWorker2.RunWorkerAsync()
End If
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
End Try
End Sub
Private Sub BackgroundWorker2_DoWork(sender As System.Object, e As System.ComponentModel.DoWorkEventArgs) Handles BackgroundWorker2.DoWork
Dim worker1 As System.ComponentModel.BackgroundWorker = CType(sender, System.ComponentModel.BackgroundWorker)
Try
MessageBox.Show("the program was able to open me")
'this message box above was able to display but the codes below were not processed
Dim Stream As System.IO.FileStream
Dim Index As Integer = 0
Dim openFileDialog1 As New OpenFileDialog()
openFileDialog1.InitialDirectory = "D:\work\base tremble"
openFileDialog1.Filter = "txt files (*.txt)|*.txt"
openFileDialog1.FilterIndex = 2
openFileDialog1.RestoreDirectory = True
If openFileDialog1.ShowDialog() = System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
Try
'This line opens the file the user selected and sets the stream object
Stream = openFileDialog1.OpenFile()
If (Stream IsNot Nothing) Then
'create the reader here and use the stream you got from the file open dialog
Dim sReader As New System.IO.StreamReader(Stream)
Do While sReader.Peek >= 0
ReDim Preserve eArray(Index)
eArray(Index) = sReader.ReadLine
RichTextBox3.Text = eArray(Index)
Index += 1
worker1.ReportProgress(Index)
'Delay(2)
Loop
Label1.Text = "0/" & eArray.Length & ""
End If
Catch Ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(Ex.Message)
Finally
If (Stream IsNot Nothing) Then
Stream.Close()
End If
End Try
End If
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
End Try
End Sub
Private Sub BackgroundWorker2_ProgressChanged(sender As System.Object, e As System.ComponentModel.ProgressChangedEventArgs) Handles BackgroundWorker2.ProgressChanged
Try
'Label1.Text = e.ProgressPercentage.ToString()
Me.ProgressBar2.Value = e.ProgressPercentage
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
End Try
End Sub
Private Sub BackgroundWorker2_Completed(sender As System.Object, e As System.ComponentModel.RunWorkerCompletedEventArgs) Handles BackgroundWorker2.RunWorkerCompleted
Try
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
End Try
End Sub
i have sperated OpenFileDialog into a different button and i processed the retreiving storing of data into the array in the backgroundworker and it works now.
Thanks for the headsup about OpenFileDialog not allowed in backgroundworker it gave me a hint.

Above code give me an error message:
image is used in another process, can't be deleted
when I delete the image file. The image is assigned to a PictureBox with selection event of the DataGridView. Since I have deleted the DataGridView row, as shown in the above code, it changes the image in the PictureBox.
Here I am unable to delete the image file related to the removed row.
Please guide and let me know if you need any further details.
sorry i have to rewrite this question as i did not get any update on my same question posted previously.
Below is the code where I'm inserting some data into Ms Access database in visual studio using vb. Net.
When i insert the data i also browse the image for that item and save into the folder that is located under project directory for universal access.
There is a datagridview which displays the data which was inserted to access databas alog with the image in picture box. Whenever the the datagrid view selection is change it display the picure into picture box.
I am having a trouble when i want to delete the data along with image located in project folder as it show the error that 'file used by another process, cant be deleted'
Since i have referenced that image to my picture box, it can not be deleted directly. So here I'm looking for a solution which can display the clone of image in picture box instead of real object.
Below is my code

Trying to make a "world of warcraft" launcher.
How it should work:
When you press " Start Authserver " you get to locate the authserver.exe. the location is then saved so you don't have to do that twice.
Once pressed, it obviously should launch the authserver.exe.
What happens:
When you press " Start Authserver " it opens and instantly closes with error:
Error, couldn't open cause authserver.conf couldn't be located.
Notice:
Authserver.exe and authserver.conf is in the same folder, I'm able to launch it manually.
Mort helped me with similar problem yesterday, i hoped that the same VB code would work since that would seem obvious.
Private filePath As String = String.Empty

Anyone got an idea?
In advance: Thanks.
Try something like this:
Private Sub PlayButton_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles PlayButton.Click
Try
OpenFileDialog1.FileName = ""
OpenFileDialog1.Filter = "World of Warcraft (WOW.EXE)|WOW.EXE"
Dim diagResult As DialogResult = OpenFileDialog1.ShowDialog
If diagResult = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
Dim p As New Process
Dim fn As New System.IO.FileInfo(OpenFileDialog1.FileName)
p.StartInfo.WorkingDirectory = fn.DirectoryName
p.StartInfo.FileName = fn.Name
p.Start()
End If
Catch ex As Exception

I am using two Datagridview in my code, i drag content from Me.datagridview2 and drop it on Me.datagridview1.This process is successful. But as soon as i click the cell other than the dropped content cell, the dropped content disappears. Here's my code
Private Sub DataGridView2_MouseDown(sender As Object, e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles DataGridView2.MouseDown
Try
If Me.DataGridView2.SelectedRows.Count = 0 Then
Exit Sub
End If
Me.DataGridView2.DoDragDrop(Me.DataGridView2.SelectedRows(0), DragDropEffects.All)
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message, "Message", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error)
End Try
End Sub
Private Sub DataGridView1_DragDrop(sender As Object, e As System.Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs) Handles DataGridView1.DragDrop
Try
Dim r As DataGridViewRow = e.Data.GetData(GetType(DataGridViewRow))
If Me.DataGridView1.SelectedRows.Count = 0 Then
Exit Sub
End If
Dim i As Integer = Me.DataGridView1.SelectedRows(0).Index
Me.DataGridView1.Rows(i).Cells(1).Value = r.Cells(0).Value
Me.DataGridView1.Rows(i).Cells(2).Value = r.Cells(1).Value
Me.DataGridView1.Rows(i).Cells(3).Value = r.Cells(2).Value
Me.DataGridView1.Rows(i).Cells(4).Value = r.Cells(3).Value
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message, "Message", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error)
End Try
End Sub
Private Sub DataGridView1_DragEnter(sender As Object, e As System.Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs) Handles DataGridView1.DragEnter
Try
e.Effect = DragDropEffects.Copy
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message, "Message", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error)
End Try
End Sub
Have following doubts
1. why does the dropped content disappears.
2. whenever we begin edit on datagridview, a row in automatically added below. Why it doesn't gets added when i drop content in datagridview.?
Please help me.
Actually, i just got an alternative to my own question. Here's it.
Private Sub DataGridView1_DragDrop(sender As Object, e As System.Windows.Forms.DragEventArgs) Handles DataGridView1.DragDrop
Try
Dim r As DataGridViewRow = e.Data.GetData(GetType(DataGridViewRow))
If Me.DataGridView1.SelectedRows.Count = 0 Then
Exit Sub
End If
Dim i As Integer = Me.DataGridView1.SelectedRows(0).Index
dragseldet.Tables(0).Rows.Add("", r.Cells(0).Value, r.Cells(1).Value, r.Cells(2).Value, r.Cells(3).Value, 0, 0)
dragseldet.AcceptChanges()
'Me.DataGridView1.Rows(i).Cells(1).Value = r.Cells(0).Value
'Me.DataGridView1.Rows(i).Cells(2).Value = r.Cells(1).Value
'Me.DataGridView1.Rows(i).Cells(3).Value = r.Cells(2).Value
'Me.DataGridView1.Rows(i).Cells(4).Value = r.Cells(3).Value
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message, "Message", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error)
End Try
End Sub
Rather than copying the contents from r row to Me.DataGridview. all cells , i am directly adding r row to my datasource named dragsaldet . And that did the trick for me.
I have a problem where it says that a file is already being used by another process
But I am pretty sure it's not being used anywhere else..

Thanks in advance!
It was because of this:
Dim writer As StreamWriter = New StreamWriter(Filelist)
i changed it to
Dim writer As StreamWriter
and it work like a charm.. dont know if it is the right way.. but it worked.
