[2008] Open A .exe File And See The Code For It?
Jan 22, 2009
I'm making a tiny program that calculates a total for a user for some type of styling service. A user clicks the radio button for either hairstyle, perm makeup, makeover, or manicure. then clicks a discount radio button, either none, 10% or 20%. then it calculates the total (price of service - discount %). then it displays the total in the current service text box & keeps a running total and displays that in a second total box.
My problem is i try to run the program i made and it basically crashes. In the code, when in VB, there's an error message when you go over PriceDecimal, DiscountDecimal, and GrandTotalDecimal saying the variable is used before it is assigned a value.also is there any way to open a .exe file and see the code for it?
Public Class ImageForm
' Declare module-level constants
Const MAKEOVER_PRICE_Decimal As Decimal = 125D
Const HAIRSTYLING_PRICE_Decimal As Decimal = 60D

I have created an Excel AddIn that has a custom ribbon with some custom buttons...I'm using Excel 2010. One of the buttons is to save the the workbook by utilizing the users input as the file name. This workbook is to be saved as a template in a specified folder. The code also checks to see if the file already exists, and prompts the user to overwrite if it does already exist.The code I have seems to be working just fine. The problem is...when I try to open the newly saved workbook, it won't open.Here is the entire code for the button click event:
Dim Warning As DialogResult
m userFileName As String
Warning = MsgBox("Warning Message", vbOKCancel + vbCritical, "Warning Title")

I've gone through about 16 hours and two packs of cigarettes trying to figure this out. First a little background. I was using 6.0 up until 2004 when I went to prison. I'm out now, and trying to relearn the trade, using VS 2005. I'm currently porting some 6.0 code from another project, SpyCast Webcam Studio, into VB 8.0. It's disheartening, to say the least. None of the old built-in subs/functions work anymore, so I have to scour the forums to relearn each and every function.The section I'm doing now takes a snapshot from the webcam (Video API --> PictureBox --> Save as Jpeg), then upens the file to upload it to the server via HTTP POST. I've been using this code in SpyCast for years with no trouble, but I spent many hours trying to piece together the right code to open the binary file to read its contents. I pieced together two methods I found around the forums, one using FileStream() though the code I found wasn't for binary files, even though it said it was, so that code doesn't really work. Method two uses Microsoft.VisualBasic.FileOpen() and works better.
Here's the kicker. By the time I run through the rest of the rigamarole of uploading the file, by the time I read it on the webserver, it's *slightly* corrupted. It's a valid Jpeg, no errors, but the picture looks like when I use to watch the Playboy Channel when I was a kid scrambled with weird colors and whatnot. [code] Each "chunk" is basically one "line" of the file. It looks like a single LineInput() return is the text between two carriage returns. Am I correct? I tested this with a flat text file, and it looks true. However, That one input line returns the text or data with the carriage returns *stripped*! ***?!? =( Fine, I have no problem adding my own vbCrLf to each LineInput(), if I were opening text. but this's binary. A character could be Chr(10) or Chr(13), both of which are removed from the original file contents.So I could very well need to use something other than LineInput(), but I haven't found any other examples on the web using this method.

I would like to find out how would it be possible to make a executable be lunched at the click of a button from a vb.net form.what I have so far is a form with a few button on.for example:
button 1 is called 'RegEdit'
button 2 is called 'system information'
[code].....
this complied will lunch regedit as instructed but what I would like to do is to put the console app .exe file into a root file of the application.I would like to be able to have, once this project is completed, a main folder with the name of the app and then a sub dir called 'resources'. the 'resources' folder would have the various command line .exe with instructions to open various system programs.

This is the code I use to open a file:
Quote:
Public filecode As String
Public Sub getfile(ByVal filename As String)
Dim objReader As StreamReader
But I keep getting the filenotfound exception.
I replaced the file source with the actual location of the file and got the same error. I also checked the permissions of the application to allow sharing and remove read only properties.

I'm letting my users write their own HTML from my webpage. When they click the preview button, my code behind needs access to controls on the page (and so I understand I can't use a web method here). It builds the HTML and saves it as a file on the server. My question is: Once the file has been made, I want to automatically open the file in a new window for the user to see their handy work. I'm using vb.net, but happy to receive c# answers.

I understand how to associate my windows form application with a file extension (in my case, *.cmf). However, when the user double clicks on the file in, say Windows Explorer, the application opens but without the file being loaded. I also understand that this scripting (for the response to double clicking the file) can be defined by the My.Application.Startup Event, but I have not been able to find (in either this forum or MSDN) a clear example of what to do with the command line arguments after they passed to the application

I have an app that works client cases and at one point they need to open a .MSG file that's been dragged into the case.
Right now it opens in Outlook. Sloppy and slow.
I would actually like to open and parse the data out of that file myself. Maybe put it into a richtextbox?

But I can't understand how to use it.

On my computer I've set that when you try to open a txt file it opens it with my application. When I open a txt-file, the computer opens my program, but then is RichTextBox1 empty. (Of course, because I haven't set my program yet to show the content of the textfile in RichtextBox1.)
How do I make my program know from which file it's launched? So that it can load the content of the file using a StreamReader?

I want to find the full path of the program that will open a given file type. e.g. '.txt' is opened by c:windowssystem32 otepad.exe
I've done a bit of searching but i keep just finding how to create an association, not read one. I've also tried looking in the registery, but it looks like all that's there is a link to the program ID or something.
