[2008] Run Msinfo32.exe From The System32 Folder?
Apr 7, 2008
im trying to run msinfo32.exe from the system32 folder in one of my apps goggling around i found an example and stuff yet i dont have a clue what im doing there, any tutrial on how to call other win32 apps on the click of a button like for example if you was to go on internet explorer 7 Help->About-> "System Information" something similar to that, a button would open it?
Private Sub AboutToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles AboutToolStripMenuItem.Click
Dim form1 As New Form()
Dim sysinfo As New Button()
sysinfo.Text = "Sytem Information"
[code].....
i have a kind of popup window which displays well nothing apart from a button for now but hopefully some info soon on the version of my browser, but for now i would like system information to get working?

This is my first time really working with DataGridViews. And for my own learning, I am trying to create a "System Information" program. I understand you can easily do simple stuff such as:
DataGridView1.Rows.Item(0).Cells(0).Value = "OS Name"
DataGridView1.Rows.Item(0).Cells(1).Value = My.Computer.Info.OSFullName

I have discovered Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments and My.Computer.Filesystem.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments
I know how to check if the folder exists, but it's awfully difficult to find a way to create a folder in a 'special folder'.
How do I programmatically create a folder in the users 'My Documents'?

Not doing anything shady... this is for personal use I make themes for BB phones, and there is a trick where you can set this permission, then export the theme, and it allows you to look at the code of the theme so you can make adjustments in how things work

in the current project im making i've decided to add in some tools, 1 of which is a renamer based of a renamer app that already exists (called scdtoolz), i want to build my own version of it so i can learn some new things, and build a nice GUI version of it.[code]So what i have managed to determine is that the current app scans the folders contents for the CRC32 Checksum, and renames based of that, since the 456.bin's CRC32 Checksum was 2274F80B, and in the text file 2274F80B is found here 'WWF - Rage in the Cage (T-81015)(U)#2274F80B#'So now i have determined game identification is based of the CRC32 checksums, how would i go about coding a similar ap in vb.net?first i need to make the app scan a folder, but how to return crcchecksum? and then rename if check = XXXX? If MD4 sums are easier/simpler i can use those instead, im lookin at a few hash app sources now, so i think i can see how to get the md5 but not the crc32 yet, or how to rename the 2 files and folder based of the text file.

Basically I have a known folder that is going to have some pictures in. All the pictures will be bmp for now (hoping to change it to jpeg shortly) and this directory will only contain that and nothing else.Basically I have a PictureBox on a form (pbImage) I also have a Next button and a Previous button.What I want to do is when the form is loaded read that directory and display the first image in the picturebox. Then using the Next/Previous button go through the images.I don't know how many images will be in the directory and I don't know what the names will be.
