I am using
string text = System.IO.File.ReadAllText(@"C:datainput.txt");
to open a file and save it content to "text"
How can I instead create new window where user will select the .txt file he wants to read like many applications do
This is a WPF application

I am trying to open a file and print the contents of the file to the terminal window. It works when I put the file right in the directory with the Solution but not if the file is out on my desktop and I use the full path. Here is the code:
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int OpenFile(){
fstream SampleFile;

I have created an scientific calculator application and I have a VBS script that runs some of the files. I want to create a C program that runs that VBS script. however, a command window flashes before the application opens. So basically I need a short C (or C++) program that runs a VBS script without a command window popping up. I am on Windows 8 and my compiler is GCC/G++ under cygwin. Here is what I have now that DOES NOT work.
Code:
#include <windows.h>
int main()
{
ShellExecute( NULL, NULL, "StartUp.vbs", NULL, NULL, SW_HIDE);
return 0;
}

There is only one thing I need here. When the paint program is opened I need it to automatically open it maximized. Other than that my code works perfectly for what I'm trying to build.
It has to be maximized so when a friend opens it after I send it to him, it auto maximizes and doesn't start drawing on his desktop.
#include <iostream>
#include <Windows.h>
using namespace std;
int main() {
system("start C:/Windows/System32/mspaint.exe");
FreeConsole();
Sleep(1000);

If I compile code which uses cin using the command prompt, then run the compiled program a new window opens when it reaches the cin line of code, for the input. If there is no cin used then all printing happens in the original window. Is there a way to stop this behavior of the opening of a new window?

My program accepts strings, places them in a vector and then "bleeps!" out words of my choosing, in this case, "broccoli". But I'm having trouble keeping the output window open even with my Keep_window_open() implementation.
#include "iostream"
#include "string"
#include "vector"
#include "algorithm"
#include "cmath"
using namespace std;

I am trying to make a basic Snake game using the command window and screen refreshes. So far I have a board, snake, food, and no walls. Basically I have it so the snake moves like the traditional snake in the game, when it eats the food once it grows. However when it eats the food a second time the game crashes. I think I have narrowed the issue down to the grow array that I have (below) but I am not sure if the issue could be a result of something else.
Grow Array
cord growArray (cord *p_values, int *size)
{
*size = *size + 1;
cord *p_new_values = new cord[ *size ];

I have a list with 2 items in it. When I double click on item 1, I want to open Window1.xaml, when I double click on item 2, I want to open Window2.xaml...
The code below works for popping up a message box, or window for that matter. But I really need to get the Window1 and Window2 based on the clicking of the correct selected item in the list.
Here is some code:
<ListView d:DataContext="{d:DesignData }" Name="PharmacyLv" IsSynchronizedWithCurrentItem="True" l:Sortbehavior.CanUserSortColumns="true" >
<ListView.ItemContainerStyle>
<Style TargetType="ListViewItem">
<EventSetter Event="MouseDoubleClick" Handler="ListViewItem_PharmDoubleClick" />
</Style>
</ListView.ItemContainerStyle>

I write a program which now works perfectly well. However, I want to make it run at the right time automatically, instead of waiting for a user to start it when needed.
The basic problem is, that in a WinPE environment an exe is running. Unfortunately it would need critical input, which must be inputted perfectly. So, I wrote a program which gets the data and sends it to the other app, by bringing it to the front and presses the keys needed using SendInput().
However, this program should wait for it's cue, then get on the inputting part. It's cue should be the point where the program waits for the first user input with this displayed on the last line:
Text:
My question is: how to listen and check whether the last line displayed is "Text:"?
I've tried with AttachConsole(), but for some reason it opens a new console window. I checked and the PID I'm using is the console window's, so I don't know why that happens.
The few lines I'm trying with:
HWND hwnd = FindWindow(NULL, "Administrator: Command Prompt");
SetForegroundWindow(hwnd);
SetFocus(hwnd);
DWORD process_id;
GetWindowThreadProcessId(hwnd, &process_id);
[Code] ...
Please don't criticize the first line. I know it can be ambiguous, but I modified it, When actually using it, the exe name will be in the title, so it will be unique.

Say, I have the "K: est del USB" folder.
Then I do the following:
Code:
SHFILEOPSTRUCT sfo = {0};
sfo.wFunc = FO_DELETE;
sfo.pFrom = L"K: est del USB";
sfo.fFlags = FOF_ALLOWUNDO |
[Code] ....
So when I run it, the SHFileOperation API shows this warning:
Are you sure you want to permanently delete this folder?
If the end-user clicks "No", SHFileOperation return 0x4c7, which I believe is ERROR_CANCELLED.
My question is, if I don't need any UI, how can I know that my file/folder will be permanently deleted vs. placed into the Recycle Bin?

I'm writing a small function that gets as parameter a file's path and a folder's path, and copies the given file to that folder.
Code:
int copy_file(const char* source, const char* folder) {
char copy[PATH_MAX];
strcpy(copy, folder);
strcat(copy, "/");
strcat(copy, source);
[Code] ....
Basically, this function purpose is to make a backup of source in folder every X minutes (depending on user's input).
The problem is the second call to open():
This call attempts to open the file for writing, and creates it if it is not already exist.
It also truncates it before writing to it - and that's my concern:
Let's say this is the second time this function runs, so copy is already exist. open() will then truncate it, and then one of the system calls in the while loop fails.
In this situation, I might be left with no backup file.
The problem also arises for when source is a read-only file:
If source is a read-only file, and copy is not already exist (meaning - it's the first backup attempt), then everything's fine, but, if source is a read-only file and copy is already exist, then I have to first remove copy altogather, and make a fresh copy of source.
Making a backup with new name for copy every time copy_file() runs, will solve this problem, and how can this be accomplished?
I should say that I'd really prefer that copy and source will have the same names when copy_file() returns...

am trying to create a service that will try to create a service that will monitor a folder. Whenever a new file gets created, I am trying to read the contents of new file and copy contents (with same file) at a new location.
The problem I am facing is that only first file that gets its name copied and a file created at a new location, but without any contents. The subsequent files do not get created at all.
My Services.cs looks like this:-
