I am trying to write a Windows Script that will allow me to monitor the following: That 2 x seperate but specific processes within Component Services "Running Processes" list are currently running and have not reset within the past hour. If I already know the PID, then I can retrieve the CreationDate (I assume which I can use to check for restarts? or is this the actual process creation/installation date) for each specific process, however if a restart occurs the PID will change and my script needs to know what the new PID is without me telling it!

I have created a porcess that manipulates large volumes of text. I have created a form that has a button that manually starts the process. I have tried to give some feedback that the process is actually progressing through the data by changing the value of text fields on the form. However the text fields do not update on the form until after the process is complete. I had this working in another program but cannot figure out what I am doing different.I use the following code to change the text.[code]
View 2 RepliesWhat I'm trying to do is show a form while a background process is running. Similar to a progress bar but not a progress bar. We have a form that has an animated gif (customer request) and that's it. no other controls. They want this form to show while the processing in the background is running.
View 5 RepliesI'm trying to automate a product that provides no such automation capability.I've take a cursory look at loading the app in a separate AppDomain, and also, through reflection, executing the Program.Main() to get the app running. I also tried getting the windowhandle from a separately created Process object (which I've learned will not work).If I have a reference to their assembly added to my project so I can reference an instance of "TheirProduct.FormMain", what, if it's possible, is the best way to go about capturing events from that form? What I need to do is to be able to capture a couple events, and perform a few Button.PerformClick() against the form.

I have MDI Parent Form and i'm going load all form as MDI child. Here i'm going to give option to "Close All" toolstripbutton in top of MDI Parent to close All mdi child forms.
Now i would like to check that On click of Close All Toolstripbutton , i have to close all mdi child form but except those form is on process, example, I have opened/Loaded 5 MDI child forms within MDI Parent Form.
Child forms are ( just for example ) ,
1. Customer details Form
2. Item Details Form
3. Import Orders Form
4. Stock Details Form
5. Production Entry Form
Here 3.Import Orders form is importing from Excel with 5000 records and 4. Stock details form exporting to excel.
So now if i click "Close All" button then i have close only Idle form i.e 1,2 and 5 but i should not close 3 and 4 since its on some process.
So Is there any .NET option to check that form in process/idle or do I have to check manually by having any Flags ?
i am trying to write a little program that checks for a process and kills is.here is the
Dim p As Process = Process.GetProcessesByName("Cheat Engine")(0)
p.CloseMainWindow()[code]...
My problem is it�s woking ,yes if the programm ,,Cheat Engine" is running the process is getting killed.But if the program is not running my program crashes.
Trying to create a button that when clicked will check to see if a certain process image is running and if that process is running give the process focus. If the process is not running then start the application.
View 9 RepliesHow would I achieve a drop shadow effect around all edges of my Form?
View 9 RepliesI have seen this happen before but am not sure how I resolved it in the past. On runtime the controls of my form change from the windows 7/vista format to an older version format as shown in the attached image.
How to display the controls in the format on the left (new windows format)
I am almost sure this isn't possible but it's worth an ask... We have a .NET DLL that is being called from our VB6 application. The VB6 app runs in a 32 bit process so the DLL runs in the same process (it's compiled as any cpu) Therefore when I do my ODBC Database access in the DLL is will only use a 32 bit driver, as this is what it thinks it needs (for the record the DB is Pervasive PSQL)
My problem arises when the application runs on a 64 bit machine (when only the 64 bit ODBC driver is installed) as it can't find a suitable driver to use. So is there a way to force the .NET DLL to run in a 64 bit process (compiling as x64 doesn't work because register for COM Interop is not allowed) This isn't necessarily an issue at this point in time because I can install the 32 bit driver, but at some point in the future I can imagine that 32 bit driver may not be available so I will be up the proverbial creek.
how to run a process as a child process?
I'm using this code to launch a process:
Dim appdirect As String = Application.ExecutablePath
appdirect = appdirect.Replace("SIS.EXE", "")
appdirect = appdirect.Replace("SIS.exe", "")
[Code]....
It runs the process but I need it to run as a child process of SIS.exe.
I have created a service which should give a welcome message while I login to my Laptop & "Bye" message when I logout/shut down.Its setting is so that the service gets started automatically. But it starts & sops immediately. When I try to start it manually I get the following message:"Welcome service on local computer started & stopped. Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services or programs".how to keep my service running so that I can test whether its doing what it should do..!!

I have a program which i need to open a program called VEngine.exe. The program i wrote is running through scheduled task every 5 minutes to check if the VEngine program is running. If it is not running it will start it.
Everything works, however if i log off the server and i kill the VEngine. The scheduled task STARTS VEngine.exe however there is no Gui Display.

I hope the title gives a good description, i have read the forum posting tips at the top. Ive just joined the community and nice to meet you all. Anyways, I am trying to create a vb.net application for which it will check if a process is running in task manager, and if this process or processes are running to end a different process. Let me give you an example,
If processA, ProcessB is running then END ProcessC. If however ProcessA, and ProcessB are not running then ProcessC can stay active. I have started the project and am able to kill the processes etc. This is shown below.

I'm not sure how I would use Process.GetProcessesByName()to check if a process is running, and if it isn't start it, using VB.NET?I know how to start a process using Process.Start().
View 2 RepliesI just need to check whether a process is running. But I have absolutely no idea where to start!
View 10 RepliesI need to create a program that checks to see if a certain process is running, but I need to check it at a predetermined interval, such as every 10 seconds. I also need it to relaunch the program if it disappears/crashes. I have no idea where to start, I'm assuming I'd have to use a timer and write a method that checks for this process and then another method to simply launch it.

View 2 RepliesI am waiting for another process to finish:
Process.GetProcessById(processID).WaitForExit()
But sometimes it already ended before I even get to this line of code, so it throws an exception that the process is not running. I don't want to catch this using a try catch, but using a if statement. How can I do this?
If Process.GetProcessByID(processID).IsRunning = true then
something like that...
This is the command line I want to use inside my VB.NET program. Look for the running process "mpc-hc.exe" and get the commandline of the running processwmic process where name='mpc-hc.exe' get CommandLineI want to retrieve the output from that command into a string. I know that it could be done natively in a VB.NET program and I have looked at how it was done. However, I cannot get the code to perform what it did in the commandline I have above.
View 1 RepliesI'm calling the following method from a button click event to export a datatable to excel. After the export is completed, the excel application object is quit, released and assigned to nothing. But in reality it's not getting released and stays active unless the entire application is closed. So every time the button is clicked for export, a new excel application object keeps on running. How can I solve this?
The problem doesn't occur if two of the lines from the method below are not used. But I can't omit them as they are really needed. Check the * marked lines.

I need to check if a certain process is NOT running. So until now i've been using a loop and if it doesn't find the process then it alerts me (with MsgBox) however now i realized that the for each loops looks on each process and if that process isn't the one im looking for its gonna give me an alert, that it was not running even when the next process could be the one i need to know about.
