The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

My app won't move my files

Asked by MBoogie_25 in Programming for ASP.NET

Tags: exception, 0x800a003a, file

I am making an app in VS2003 w/ vb where I need to move a file, and the debugger says:

An unhandled exception of type 'System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException' occurred in microsoft.visualbasic.dll
Additional information: Exception from HRESULT: 0x800A003A (CTL_E_FILEALREADYEXISTS).

Here's the code:

        On Error Resume Next
        Dim objFSO
        Dim strFileName, strFilePath, strDestPath
        Dim Path As String

        Path = Command()
        strFilePath = "K:\FTPPREP\" & Path
        strFileName = Dir(strFilePath & "\*.ZIP")
        strDestPath = "K:\FTP\" & Path
        objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
 
       If objFSO.FileExists(strFilePath & "\" & strFileName) Then
            MsgBox("File: Yes, and it is named: " & strFileName)
            objFSO.MoveFile(strFilePath & "\" & strFileName, strDestPath)
        Else
            MsgBox("File: No")
        End If

I do get the MsgBox saying the file is there with the correct file name, and I know for sure that the file isn't in the destination Path. I can even hardcode the MoveFile command, and it still won't get it there. What am I missing?

Kind of a sub-question: I demo'd PrimalScript, and I could compile exe's from vbs files with file manipulation (that worked!) The only way I can build an exe (in VS 2003) is by using a vb module in my project, and then building that. If I try using vbs files, It won't even let me build it. Am I doing something wrong even before the coding?

Thanks
