View 3 RepliesI need to generate a report that shows the 52 weeks of a year (or 53 weeks as some years have) and their start and end dates. There is an ISO spec to do this but seems awfully complicated! Im hoping someone knows of a way to do it in C# or Visual Basic (its actually for Visual Basic 6 but I will try port it across)

View 3 RepliesHere is, basically, how my application works:
When windows starts, my app starts. Whenever my app is running, it hides the desktop, taskbar, etc... When a button is clicked in my application ("Start program"), then my application will set its visible property at false and another application will start.
Everything seems to work perfect except I need a way for my application to set its visible property back to true, but only once the other application that was started earlier, is closed (no longer running.)
My thought was that I could use a timer to check for the applications state every so many seconds:[code...]
I have 2 concerns with this:
1. A timer checking this every few seconds will invoke unneeded stress on a computer since they are running for sometimes very long periods of time.
2. There is a better way to accomplish this that doesnt rely on a timer.
Although I signed up a year ago I didnt have enough free time to carry on programming, but have now made some time.
I have spent the past 2 hours trying to look for a code for visual basic 2008 that will check if a program is running.
It would be really helpful if someone wrote the whole code out and made it clear exactly where I put them name of the .exe file
I am creating a program that will check if a program is running, by checking its window title (NOT THE FILENAME, ITS WINDOW TITLE) and seeing if it is currently running.
So far I was only able to check if the program was running by its filename

I'm making a program in VB to check if a certain program is running, and if not, to start it up, because I'm hardly ever at my computer and sometimes the program that is being checked for existence tends to close down often, so I need something that will check for the existence of the program in question, and start it if it's not running
View 4 RepliesI have a program that 10-20 people use throughout the day. Because things are rapidly fluctuating I occasionally have to take the database offline, or restart the server for other reasons. I'd like to have a better way to make sure no one is currently in the program than walking to each person and asking them.
I don't want to re-invent the wheel if something like this already exists.
The thoughts I had were:
Create a database "history" entry each time users open or close the program to see who is currently using the system. Use WCF to have the clients "tell" the server that they are connected every X seconds.
When user clicks on the button, it will ask him to choose a specific file. It checks the MD5 to know if this is the right file.[code]...

I don't like to build myprogram to a click-onceapplication becauseI lose the .exe and I don't know how to edit it after building it. So unless someone this, here is my main question:I was thinking about updating a .txt file that have uploaded somewhere that has the current available version. Can I use streamreader for an online file? And if so, if the available version is updated, how can I edit the code and everything to updatethe file?
View 14 RepliesI'm using VB.Net 2005 Pro and want to be able to check if a particular program is installed. I've seen lots of ideas about checking files in the program files folder or scanning the registry for keywords but none of these seem particularly foolproof. Is there a way to get a definitive answer to if an app is installed?
View 2 RepliesAs most programers will want after spending a long time on a program is to implement program updates, so have i.
What i want is a nice simple way of doing the following check if file exists as "www.mydomain.com/program/install.exe" if true, download and launch install.exe on completion, un intstall current vertion ( if possible )
Sorry in advance. I emailed myself my coding since I don't have vb on my personal computer. Sooo, the format is going to be off. But my program allows the computer to generate a random date. The user has to guess what day of the week the random date lands on. I have written the whole code. It all works except when user checks his/her answer. The answer always comes up as incorrect. Here is the coding:
[code]...
So I can't figure out how to find the first day of the week. I also need it in a format like ("yyyyMMdd")
Right now I only have it telling me its Sunday. I need the exact date.
Dim FDW As Date
FDW = WeekdayName(1, FirstDayOfWeek.System)
MessageBox.Show(FDW)
I need a function that will give me the day of the week for any date...and possible assign the day of the week to a string...

I have a ComboBox where I select which day of the week I want it to update. And each week at that day, at a predefined time as well I want it to add 1 to an integer. I want it to continue doing this until I stop it. When I close the program I want it to do a check on start up if it has past that set date and time, if it has it should add 1 to the integer again, if 2 weeks have past I want it to add 2 to the integer.

I'm working on a status monitoring program for my company and we need to be able to know if a process on a remote machine is hanging due to not responding (that I can do) or if it's thrown an unhandled exception. I've tried a number of things from checking the CPU usage of the process to checking if the process has gone idle. Nothing has really been reliable. Is there anyway to do this? All the programs we'll be monitoring are running on either .NET 3.5 or 4.0.
View 4 RepliesI'm launching an Access ADE, using Tony Toews auto FE program. The AutoFE programs will, if newer version available, copy the latest version of the ADE from the server, then launch it. My code looks like:
Dim stAutoFE As String = "V:Appsautofestartmdb.exe /cmd /inifile: " & """" & "V:AppsAutoFESSP.ini" & """"
Shell(stAutoFE, AppWinStyle.Hide, True)
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000) ' Time delay
[code]....
I had to put the Sleep delay in, otherwise the GetObject would open the ADE a second time.But I don't know how long the copy from the server will take, so I need to remove that Sleep line and check that the ADE has opened.
I have a groupbox with 12 checkboxes(containing months of the year). I need to calculate and display the value in a text box.
For example if one check box is checked then on clicking the button calculate, it should be able to display the value 500 in the text box, if two checkboxes is checked then the total should be 1000, if three check boxes then total should be 1500 and so on[code]...

What I'm trying to do is have a timer stop ticking after another program is x'd out. (Not really 'closed', but whenever the X button has been clicked). I know it would be an If statement, but i'm not sure how i'd go about implementing it from there.
