I'm now working on a domainchecking application for about 2 weeks and it is in the final developement phase.There is a my.settings that is, by default 1 to indicate that it is the first time starting the application. If it is the first time, the settingsform will show up to activate the application with a serialcode. This works fine. If I start up the app again, it doesn't show the settingsform again because my.settings.firsttime was set to 0.
After 1 cycle of the timer, which checks all the domains,the line: application.restart is being executed. Then **** happens...It shows up the welcome-message again and asks for activation.By check,I put a button on the settingsform which shows you the value of my.settings. firsttime. and ***... It is 1, like magic, it changed itself from 0 to 1. The same problem is with the indicator of the activation.Is the problem caused by application.restart? Is there alternative code for restarting an application?
