I have an application that provides a countdown for 60 minutes and I'm currently using the win form timer and it updates some labels and a progressbar. Now I have to change this to be a countdown for 360 minutes. Will the win form timer be sufficient or should I implement a Timers.Timer instead?

is there a way i can refresh my vb application?
my program is an alarm that prompts the user if there is a new added item.
i want it to be real time so that the user does not have to restart the application to check if there is a new item.

I would like to try and implement a feature wherby once you have logged into an application (straightforward winforms application) and had your credetials verified the application would then force you to log on again if no activity had been detected in the application for a certain number of minutes. In essence I want to provide some extra security for those occasions when users get up and wander away from their machines for prolonged periods.
I have all the logic for logging into the application, it's just the checking for no activity over a given period and then forcing the user to log back in again that I'm not having much luck with.

I am looking for formula that is accurate in converting Minutes to Decimal Minutes i.e 30 minutes is 50 Minutes in Decimals so 1.3 hours is 1.50 and not 1.5 i have used Minutes/60 but it is not accurate as some times i have to Multiply the result by 100 and some time 1000 to get correct results based on single digit Try 1/60, 10/60 99/60 or 100/60.What would be the most efficient and correct way to Convert the time into Minutes ?

I have a distributed print control application that is done in a combination VB6 and Visual C++. The application launches at startup on a workstation and waits for a user to login. Once that happens, we track time in the session, along with how many print jobs the guy performs.
We have separate session SW that allows a person to add money to their accounts. The problem is that if there's an active session, typically due to the individual being logged into one of the above mentioned workstations, I can no longer ensure updates to the DB will be atomic.
I would like to have the money terminal send a log off command to the remote workstation session if it detects a user is currently logged in elsewhere. But I'm not sure if there's an existing API for this.

I am trying to capture SHUTDOWN and LOGOFF Events, so that I can be alerted when my process stops. The below code works in detecting these events. I am trying to get it to release the monitoring of the system events after the email has been sent, Being newer to VB, I am not sure how to do this. I copied this code from another google forum.

I'm making a screensaver with the added option of shutting down/oggingoff/hibernating/sleeping at a user-defined time. Now, I'm fine for all my code except for the scripts for these events.

What i wish to find is a message or the like that I can use to detect between specific 'shutdown' like events, ie: I wish to be able to find the difference between a shutdown, restart, logoff and sleep initiation.
The problem i have found (as displayed below) is using oClosingEvent.CloseReason the return types provide no further information other then the WindowsShutDown constant (the others are obviously irrelevant in this case).
Private Sub frmMain_FormClosing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Handles Me.FormClosing
Dim oClosingEvent As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs

But it doesn't seem to work, Windows shuts down yes but when I re-start the vm and run the app it opens with the old settings, not the ones that I changed before I shut down the vm. Anyone know of a way to do this or to fix the code above, I don't think my OnShuttingdown event is being handled.

I've added the necessary registry key to have my app run when windows loads:Hkey_Local_MachineSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionRunMyProgram = c:MyDirMyProgram.exe..I've also tryed adding it to the ProgramsStartUp folder.My app still won't load when windows does. Other apps do, and I was wondering what might be preventing my app, and only my app, to not load. Is it Security? Trust Level? or what?

I have a stand alone application "test.exe" on a Windows 7 operating system.I have an application "test.exe" made in Visual basic 8.0.I have an "Auto Update" function . Call this function from "test.exe". In the first line in "test.exe".This function does the following:
1. This checks whether the current version is older than the version on specific site, if so:
1a. Removed all *. old
1b. Rename test.exe to test.old
1c. dowload new test.exe
I'm afraid I get an error when I rename "test.exe" to "test.old" because "test.exe" is now active.How can I prevent this or what else should I do?

The software company I work for offers data conversion as a service for new clients who have previously used other similar software. I've written a VB.NET application to automate common conversion operations, and have separate logic between known vendors.particular file layout has become rather common, but due to the nature of how this particular competitor's application stores information, certain fields mean one thing for one client, and another for a different client.Certain elements within this vendor's format change every time, so I've written the application to account for that. Because some data fields mean different things to different vendors, I have to change my mapping code every time. This wasn't an issue when I had one of these every six months or so, but these are becoming much more common and I would much rather find a way to further automate this process.

I have read through the following page: [URL]
Now I have my application and an installer project, which can install my application. how to make my application auto-update (from my web server) like a smart client. I've looked into ClickOnce, but it does not appear to be suitable as I cannot do any custom installation steps. My application needs to create folders and copy other files from the CD to the hard drive, which I don't believe ClickOnce supports. On the other hand, the Windows Installer does not natively support any sort of auto-updating. So what do I do?
I have read that it is possible to combine both technologies, but all my research into this has turned up nothing of use.
I've looked into the Updater Application Block (Version 2.0), but I'm not sure if this is what I'm looking for? I'm using Visual Basic 2005 and I'm not sure if the Updater Application Block supports .NET v2.0. In fact, when I tried to install the Enterprise Library, it said I need .NET v1.1??? Even if this is a possible path, I'm really quite lost when reading through the documentation as nothing seems to point towards practical examples, especially in Visual Basic.
I've also had a look at the System.Deployment.ApplicationDeployment class, but it seems as though this only works with ClickOnce applications. However, since I can't seems to use ClickOnce in my situation, this does not seem like a viable option. Is it possible to use System.Deployment.ApplicationDeployment outside of a ClickOnce application?
I'm really quite lost as to how other people produce custom installing applications that have auto-updating features. Virtually every modern piece of software does it, but I cannot seem to find anything on the web that points me in the right direction of how to achieve this with Visual Basic 2005.

I have a visual basic .net application. It has a sql server database and a dataset for it. I have created an interface to the database (passing through my dataset) to add, delete, save etc records in a table.
The ID entry has identity specification:Yes and increment seed 1 When I add a record, instead of giving 1,2,3... as id in the textbox it produces -1,-2,-3 (Negative integers)

I am seeking advice or clarification of feasibility.Ihave a VB.NET (2008) application that, as an administrative tool,generates a user id, password and business role, and creates a file on disk with the aforementioned as content. This file needs to be deployed to users via a setup program that will put the file in a fixed path I specify. I was wondering if it is possible (and if so how complex it might b to mimic the functionality of the IDEs setup and deployment wizard within the application (that is to say buildthe msi file and setup.exesupplying the parameter of installation path).
