View 4 RepliesI have a program, and writes data to a text file... with a template inside...
All works fine, and saves fine...
I'm wondering, how could I automate the filename it saves?
Currently it saves the text file as NewOrder.txt
I would like it to now realise that there is a NewOrder.txt already there, and save as NewOrder1.txt
Then when the program is closed, and I go to do a new one, it will say ok NewOrder2.txt
Hoping this is possible, I've been reading up on my.settings but I can't really find what I'm looking for...

I'm new to visual basic & have learned many new things in such a short period of time from being on the MSDN forums. I have learned particularly in the subject of automating web browsing control using the getattributes etc., but I have tried everything that I have seen in the forums to auto click the "Settings" link in a created gmail account and then have the browser automate the "Forwarding" to another gmail address. I haven't found a solution anywhere to accomplish this.
So here is an account to try out in which this should only take a few mins to a veteran coder:

We have bid on a large installation and if we get it we will need to set up 300-400 router like devices very quickly. To set one up now we connect to the device with a serial cable, run Putty on the windows PC, log in to the device, and run some commands on it to load the latest firmware and change some settings. I'd like to reduce this to connect the router to the pc with the serial cable and press a button on a vb program. The program would launch Putty, login and execute the commands. Sendkeys might work but it would be best if the VB program could read the responses that were coming back to an extent so I wouldn't have to program in really long pauses to insure actions had completed before doing something else.

I have developed a VB.Net application to automate Word and I am noticing some issues when I attempt to close a document and subsequently Word. So I have decided to do the following - - ->
I check to see if Word is running on the local PC. If it is not, then I instaniate Word, execute code, close the document and quit Word. If Word is already running I want to be able to use that instance of Word, execute code, close out the active document and NOT close Word. I have retrieved the Process ID for Word running on the local PC but am not sure how I can use Word's properties and methods on an existing instance.

View 4 RepliesI'm a systems analyst and the company I work for likes to automate as much as they can. Recently I've been getting a lot of questions like "can we automate this in any way?" and I have no idea. I've done automation for Word, Excel, adobe reader and a terminal viewer they use but that was mostly done with code already written by some one else here. If there is a program you want to automate, do you just go to the programs website and hope they have a developers section or is there a standard way to use program dlls for automation? I'd also like some good resources on COM objects if anyone has some, I believe that is how most automation is done, correct?
