View 4 RepliesI have been looking all day trying to find a way to do this. I need to run a Batch file which is held on a server, the file path begins with a IP Address which DOS doesn't like. So i found the pushd command which assigns a temp drive letter from which you can run the Batch File.If i was simply running a normal program or file i would use:
Dim proc As Process
proc = Process.Start("c:\BatchFile.bat")
proc.WaitForExit()

can anyone please explain to me how I get the file path to an embedded video resource file I have?Currently I know how to get this while debugging, but I am unsure how to refer to it when built.It needs to work no matter where the application files are.[code]

I have a batch file that loads into a form containing 20 IT related incidents. I have managed to upload the batch file into a form. However I have an algorithm that reads an incident and manages to classify into its topic: See Below the data imported form the file:
1) Need to install jet direct to printers and connect users
2) Remove ms project software from PC 04384 and re install on 07882
3) install needed for 2 vectra software for Finance department PC assest 9875 and 8711
4) Supply PC 500 SITA Rest Area phone 2268 Asset and S/N
5) Add printer Epson label printer in ISD2
6) Remove Jetdirect and network printer via port PPSS PC add printer
7) Credentials for user UK15428 not logging onto the network
8) Install CD RW and unsupported software for UKX3395
9) Need Entire software installing on asset 5530, and access to password for use.
10) phone handset not functioning for UK10529, new phone required.
11) install card reader and software following PC move
12) New user group UKG0345 no mail just printers on PC00856 and PC02427
13) Update outlook remove project from PC D0186 in Prod Control per Tony Campbell install on Alisons PC in NDS
14) Unable to log onto the network, profile will need recreating
15) Remove spent toner cartridge
16) The printer doesnt appear to be printing, it looks like there could be a paper jam of some sort
17) Set up laptop and use local admin password to gain access to backup files
18) Remove image grabber card from PC and install on PC in paint shop have explained to user they will have to contact optivision
19) Cannot get onto network as I have forgotten my password, can you reset for UK15617
20) User cannot access voicemails, need mac address to edit on TOIP software
For example number 1) would be classified as a printer problem. I want the algorithm to be able to read each number, not the whole lot and classify the whole block of text, I want it to classify each incident individually, so there are 20 incidents to be classified.
How can I run a batch from from within vb.net?

I have written a simple folder backup program which, if started with a /s switch (argument), will run "silently" and perform an unattended backup. The obvious way to start the program with the /s switch is from a batch file, which then runs as a Windows Scheduled Task. I would like to create the batch file from the program itself, when it first runs, as it can then write the value of "Application.ExecutablePath" into the batch file follwed by the /s switch.
So, the question is, where best to save the batch file without running into Vista/Windows 7 permission problems? Is the local application data folder suitable?
Bear in mind there are three parts to this: my vb.net app needs first to create a batch file somewhere without permission issues, that batch file needs to be accessible to Windows Task Scheduler and then, when the batch file is run, it needs to start an .exe which is most likely in the "program files" folder.
How can I include a batch file or an .exe file in my setup, that runs after setup is complete?
View 2 RepliesI have an executable file with source code (in C)that i would like to embed into my VB app to make it looks like as if it's one file. My question is since, i have the source code to the executable file is there anything i can create based on the source code like "module",dll, class or something that i can import into my vb app ?
View 9 RepliesI am embedding an xsd file into my console program so I can use it to parse XML files into a datatable which I then will parse and process into a text file and into a database. I have embedded the file and can access it by going to My.Resources.LinerTester. This will return a string, but in order to use it on the Dataset.ReadXmlSchema method I have to convert it to an XSD, otherwise I get an error saying invalid characters. How can I take the embedded resource and convert it to an XSD file? I know the XSD file works fine, if I read it from a location on the hard drive it will process the XML files into a dataset just fine, so the file itself is valid.

I need to develop a small application which can do a batch find and replace on all xml files within a folder. Example:
<cardHolderName>
<firstName>Geraldine</firstName>
<middleName>
[Code].....
I want to replace ALL <firstName) tags to John and all <lastName> tags to Smith to protect sensitive date. In addition, there will be other tags such as address, ss number and phoneNumber.
NOTE: There may be multiple instances of <firstName> within the file. 1000 xml files with all replacing names, address etc. with the same fixed name such as John Smith These will be used for testing and to prevent sensitive data from being leaked
There is no doubt that I can do this the long and dirty way. (I am working on).
My code is calling a COM component to retrieve data from a contact management product. That code works fine when called directly from my VB code. However, if I add a Progress dialog and run the SAME code via the BackgroundWorker, the COM component does not run. It generates an error: Object does not match target type. when attempting to access items from the COM component.
Also, if I run my application via a batch file that simply calls the application, the COM component does not run. In this case, it generates an exception as soon as the COM component is accessed in the code. I have posted questions to the COM component vendor but after several days have not gotten any responses. Someone told me I could not access COM objects on a thead, but the same BackgroundWorker code works when communicating with Outlook or Lotus Notes (which I believe are both COM).
