C# search c drive for pacific string

im making a program that will search for a folder in c drive and i want to make it so if it exists then it will delete the folder and its content also want to have a button that is false if files are found with that name then it will enable the button for
you to delete the files found im slowly working on getting this program to remove unwanted files like pop ups and malishias browser take downs ect so thats why i want to try and make it :)
thanks in advance :)

Hello Elfenlied...
This is the VB forum, I've marked your question as abuse, that means more also to awake a moderator so he can move this thread.
Because the answer is the same, if you want to get a folder direct, then get it by using the io.directoryinfo.
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.io.directoryinfo%28v=vs.110%29.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
If you have to search for it, then it is slow and you have to do it recursive. Also there are bugs in that part of the software if it is about disk drives.
(Only to skip with Try and Catch, try and catch)

Help Please with searching Hard Drive for MP3's etc

Right I installed ITunes and in the install it said do you want ITunes to search your harddrives for MP3s to add to the library. Which I said Yes. I have all mu music on a 200gb External Hard Drive.
WHen it finished the search I had 5 files in my library that were on my desktop.
How do I ask ITunes to search my external harddrive for the rest of my music without importing individually??
Many Thanks in Advance

Just use the Add to Library command (under the File menu) and select the folder(s) on your external drive in which your music is stored.

Search network drive for large files

Our network drives are getting full. I used to be able to use Find File to find files larger than a certain size. I hit command-F for finding the file, have it set to search the volume I want for files with size greater than 80 MB, but when I hit return to start the search nothing happens--no spinning arrow showing that it's "thinking". I don't want to specify anything in the window with the magnifying glass, since I don't know file names. Any suggestions, or is this just something that you can't do with 10.4.8 (the version on my machine at work)?

Never mind. I found out that if I add specific folders I want to search inside, it works. It just doesn't want to search the volume.

Search c:\ drive and return file path for winword.exe and save as variable

Hi all, here is what I'm trying to do;
1. Search C:\ drive for winword.exe
2. take the file path and save it as a variable.
3. Then based on the path value, use the switch statement to run "some command"
Essentially I'm trying to find what the file path for winword.exe is, then run a command to modify the registry. I already have the script that will modify the registry like I want but the problem it, the path is hard coded in the script, I want to
now look for all versions of word and set the right file path so I can make the right registry changes.

This should get you started:

How to search for particular string in array?

I am struggling to figure out how to search array contents for a string and then delete the entry from the array if it is found.
The code for a program that allows the user to enter up to 20 inventory items (tools) is posted below; I apologize in advance for it as I am also not having much success grasping the concept of OOP and I am certain it is does not conform although it all compiles.
Anyway, if you can provide some assistance as to how to go about searching the array I would be most grateful. Many thanks in advance..

Ok, so you have an array of Strings. And if the string you are searching for is in the array, you need to remove it from the array.
Is that right?
Can you use an ArrayList<String> instead of a String[ ]?
To find it, you would just do:
for (String item : myArray){
   if (item.equals(searchString){
      // remove the element. Not trivial for arrays, very easy for ArrayList
}Heck, with an arraylist you might be able to do the following:
arrayList.remove(arrayList.indexOf(searchString));[edit]
the above assumes you are using 1.5
uses generics and for each loop
[edit2]
and kinda won't work it you have to use an array since you will need the array index to be able to remove it. See the previous post for that, then set the value in that array index to null.

im searching a driver for hp laserjet 1215???

This printer doesn't seem to be supported in ML:

You could try the 1515 driver or use the Generic PostScript Printer PPD when adding the printer.
Hope this helps.

Driver for PM5193 on Labview6.1

Hi,
I'm searching a driver for a function generator Fluke/Philips PM5193 for Labview6.1. I have found the driver for Labview7 and 8 but not for Labview6.
I'm using a GPIB card and I must use the Labview6.1.
Thank you for your help.

Hi,
Like you mentioned, the mininum requirements to use the driver is LabVIEW 7.0. As you probably know National Instruments does not maintain or support this driver. My suggestion would be that you try to post this on the DAQ/GPIB discussion forum to see if another customer has developed the driver for LabVIEW 6.1
Warm regards,

hi,
search XP driver for my webcam model no. 000022
thx

Hi, exactly the matrix driver is the right one for the Sata controler look here
choose the right version for your chipset , look for version for floppy 32bit , run it take some diskette put , and this file will put the drivers right to diskette, then copy this files from diskette, and save them somewhere on the hard (by the way DO THIS ON SOME other computer) . the name of the floopy manager file is "f6flpy32"
If you already have the sata drivers (extracted files from this file ''f6flpy32'')
Take the tirth party program called: "nLite" copy the disired windows to a folder on the pc, and then turn on the nLite program (the program runs only on windows XP SP2 or Windows Vista) and follow the steps first screen is for the windows that you already copy on the pc (choose where is he) secound screen i think was for the sata driver (choose where is he) and follow the other steps until it finish, then will run to modify the new windows (with integrated sata driver for sata for XP).
here is the right link for the matrix driver for L40-14F http://www.intel.com/support/chipsets/sb/CS-025753.htm
(Choose Intel?® Matrix Storage Manager, choose XP, then Floopy "
32-bit Floppy Configuration Utility for Intel?® Matrix Storage Manager")
Good Luck!

How can I search for a string like a partial IP address in the global search

When searching for a string like "10.255." the global search finds messages containing "255" or "10" and both.
This happens no matter whether quotation is used or not.
When quotation is used it probably will match on the given order as well, but beeing in the timezone '+0100' the string "10" is always found first (in the email headers...).
Is there a way to tell the global search not to use '.' or any other character as whitespace?

How do i search for a string in a txt file using java??

How do i search for a string in a txt file using java??
could you please help thanks
J

Regular expressinos work just fine, especially when
searching for patterns. But they seem to be impying
it's a specific group of characters they're looking
for, and indexOf() is much faster than a regex.If he's reading from a file, the I/O time will likely swamp any performance hit that regex introduces. I think contains() (or indexOf() if he's not on 5.0 yet) is preferable to regex just because it's simpler. (And in the case of contains(), the name makes for a very clear, direct mapping between your intent and the code that realizes it.)

Powershell script to search a network drive for .mdb files and export them to CSV file

Obviously this isn't working or I wouldn't be posting. I've tried many different examples from the net with no joy for now.
Thanks for any help you can offer.

Thanks, that did the job.
Cheers, you're welcome.
How do I get the powershell cursor to return to C:> ?

Searching for a string in given text file

Hi,
I have two strings and i need to search the entire file for the strings and highlight the lines between the strings
say, for example,
hi this is xyz
i am a begineer in java
can i have some help in this issue please
i gave 'hi' and 'can' i need the three lines to be highlighted
can you give me an idea about this.
how to proceed
thanks all in advance
Edited by: anub on Feb 6, 2009 3:24 AM

Here's an idea. Find a link to the java API. Create a utility class with a method to read a file and a method to write a file. Look in java.io for this. That should keep you busy for a while and give you something specific to ask questions about. Next, create a GUI class and put a button on it. Figure out how to make a button click open a "FileChooser" or "JFileChooser" (Look in the api for that) Imagine that these need to talk to each other so figure out what parameters are needed. After you've done that then figure out how the user is going to enter the two search criteria (something that acts like a text field). Choose a GUI class that supports text highlighting. Display all the information that the user would like to know e.g. The name of the file selected to parse, the name of the file to write, and whether the strings were found successfully.

Searching for a string in an excel file and return true if found.

How can I search for a string in an excel file and return true if found, its location and also a value.

The problem with searching an excel file is that it contains a header. It would be easiest if you just read the file into a LabVIEW array and search the array. This way you can also get the index and the value of the location.
