I am looking for a method to dynamically execute blocks of code ('tasks') in a VB.Net program for a mobile robot. The bulk of the program is running in the background retrieving variables from serial ports, APIs, and the like. The user would select a task in the form of a toolbox button which pops up a dialog to enter task parameters. An accept button would add the task with the parameters to a list. The user would add more tasks to the list as necessary, and then click an 'Execute' button to start the sequence of tasks. The program would then perform the first task with the given parameters until finished, and then start the next task in the sequence and so on.
An example task would be:
GPS Navigate:
A Parameter dialog opens and a destination is entered in the form of GPS coordinates. At run-time the task compares its current GPS position with the position entered in the parameter dialog. It calculates the direction to go and drives the motors accordingly. This particular task would loop until current position = destination position. Move on to next task. The code within the tasks themselves is not the problem, just the execution of the tasks.
Ineed a VBS script that removes all scheduled tasks which start with a specific string.
For example, delete all scheduled tasks which start with "My Application Tasks..."
I wanna use this VBS script in my application uninstaller so all tasks created by my application are removed at the uninstall time, however am not familiar with VBS.
For my job I have to manually tick up to 50 boxes on a website and then click expire to remove the records from the site. Is it possible to automate this by having a small application which on the right hand side has a browser control and on the left a button which says expire all records. When this is clicked the tool knows to tick all the records and then click on the expire button? If so what sort of control should i look at using or VB code?
I want to progress this at a later date aswell so that the tool would then be able to click on each record individually to enter the record and then click re-publish? How do I get my program to loop round and then stop when it has finished expiring all the records? Also sometimes there are more than 1 page of results, so it would need to be able to tick all results, then click on the expire button, but then be able to click on the next page button and then repeat the process so it expires the records on this page?
I have a user control as Binding Navigator control and it has navigation buttons, one of them is Cannel.I put the control in the form every thing works fine, but the problem is the priority of the sequence that the code performs for example:In the Cancel Click event there are some code inside the control it self, and in the form which hold the control I also put some code it goes fine but it first perform the code in the form and then it perform the code in the control.My question is there a way to tell the click event to perform the code inside the control first and then the code inside the holding form, (priority sequence)
This is a quick mock up of what my application looks like.Trying to incorporate a progress bar. I want to be able to click "start" then the start button disappears then a progress bar shows up in its place.

I have a UserControl, we'll call it myUC, that is one among several UserControls in the main window(myWindow) of my WPF application. myUC contains a number of standard controls, one of them being a button, we'll call it myButton.
When I click myButton, I would like to execute myMethod, which exists in the code-behind of myWindow.
The problem being that myUC doesn't have any idea that myWindow even exists, much less that myMethod exists.
How can I send the message: 'Hey, myWindow, wake up. myButton on myUc was just clicked; run myMethod'?
Can I make a menu item to execute 3 tasks? For instance when I select a file from a ListBox and I press ToolStripMenuItem1, the program will move the selected file to a directory, execute archive.bat file and the move the archived file to another directory? I tried but I can make only one operation - to move the file.
I'd rather not go into the detail of the problem, because it's a lot of typing... but the functionality of vb.net (when making a web application) is quite annoying.
This is what it does...Page1.aspx loads, then you push a button on the page, and that button then does this: Response.redirect("Page2.aspx")
But first, it does Page1's load event, then it does the btn.Click event, THEN it does Page2.aspx's load event... Is there a way to force it to not do Page1's load event, and just make it execute the button click, and the page2's load event?

How do i start the timer for a few seconds by input the value in the textbox and click the button then wait for few seconds while the timer start to countdown then show the messagebox??
I am back - I have my code - it is part of another main form for a child's desktop view. I have it in a console app that works great. My new form has 3 text boxes, and a start button - txtquestions, txtUserAnswer, txtResults and cmdStart - to start the game. I made some slight changes in the numbers, because I needed it for a younger child (6-7), and removed 1 case in the case select (a square root problem too much for a little one). I click on Start button, and it freezes up. I am in Debug, but do not get any kind of problems showing me a bad line of code.
Here is my code:
Public Shared Function Parse(ByVal txtUserAnswer As String, ByVal provider As IFormatProvider) As Integer
End Function
Private Sub cmdStart_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdStart.Click Dim endprog As String = "YES" 'define the answer for not ending the game
[CODE]......................
I am not sure about the loops, but it doesn't just freeze up anymore, as in an endless loop. Now I am getting a stop at the first 'parse'. I actually followed the instructions in a VB 2008 book to do this, and in the help section of Visual Studio with the function and the parsing. But, that is where it stops - I know I had to convert the input into - at least I think I did. The text box for input is just that input. The user's answer is typically a number, except for at the end.
I want to include a functionality in my application such that when the user clicks on a button, the user should be able to record the voice, and when stopped, the sound should be saved. Here's what I wrote for the Start and Stop button.
But thing is I renamed this player to myplayer.mo so will it work like a normal exe or is that not duable ( I know u can do this in VB6 ) but not sure how its done in VB 2008
I was just wondering if it's possible to autoclick a button without having to use the mouse hover or mouse click. I want my program to autoclick the button infinite times or as commanded by the start and stop button.
I want to click the button1 every 1 second until the stop button is clicked without using the mouse (X,Y) method if possible or which ever way is best.
I want to be able to click a button on my application and the start menu appears where I've clicked. This (if possible) will replace my shell.exe. I know that with EmergeDesktop, you can show the start menu by right-clicking the desktop. How do you do that?
I have a GUI with a few button on it and each button start an application. I want to prevent the application to start twice if the user double click on the button. How can I do that?
IS there any method to perform two different tasks in one click event Like By clicking OK button i can do
1- Instantiate a new form
2- Add somthing to listview or can do something else
But these tasks not to me simultaneous. One task at a time Actually these taks will be performed simultanously, but i want one task to be performed at a time, not both?
simple way of attaching a progress bar to the tasks of a button.When I press a button, several tasks will commence and I want a progress bar to show it's... well... progress.
Visual Basic 2008/2010 - How do I automatically click buttons in a sequence?I have about 15 buttons that automatically goto a website, then it clicks on certain links and does save as page. They are working beautifully, now i have to automate this process. already have a code in place to wait for the website to finish with each button so i am not sure if i can still use a timer to complete this process?
Like, I want a button to start five different timers, but at 1.5 second intervals. How could I make this button start timer1, wait 1.5 seconds, start timer2, wait 1.5 seconds, start timer 3, etc, etc?
I created a simple VB application in Visual Studio 2010.My computer, which I am using to create the program, is Windows 7 Pro, and SQL Server 2008 is running on a Windows Server 2008 Enterprise, which I have full access to.
I want to click a button and have an SSIS package execute.I looked around on the Internet and found examples, but they do not seem to work for me.I try to add a reference, Microsoft.SqlServer.ManagedDTS.dll, as a few sites advise, but it is not listed when I go to PROJECT>ADD REFERENCE.
I also type:
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime but all I get is a squiggly green line, which when hovered over states "Namespace or type specified in the Imports 'Microsoft.SqlServer .Dts.Runtime' doesn't contain any public member or cannot be found." Below is some code I copied from one of the websites and pasted in my button click event (the path is correct), but a get blue squiggly lines under "Package" and "DTSExecResult":
Dim pkgLocation As String Dim pkg As New Package[code]....
What can I do to make the SSIS package run when I click the button on the Windows application a created?
