Ok here is what i m trying to do.I have one pc at home which is always running and then i want to connect to that PC from my Office. For example i wanna built some VB.net program that i use from Office which sends signal/Message to the PC running at Home(There will be a VB.net program at HOME pc also which is always waiting for the incoming messages) and gets the response from that PC at home.
In General i want that my program(vb.net) at Office communicates with my Program(vb.net) at home even if there is nobody at home, so that i can share some files or may be perform some other operations at home pc even if i m away.
I'm trying to setup sort of a LAN keep-alive proxy...Ex.: My Xbox 360 is connected strait to my computer via an ethernet cable. My computer is connected to the internet via a Wi-Fi adapter. Everything works fine and I can access the internet on the Xbox and computer.
Issue: Every time I start my Xbox I have to set up a "Home or Small Office Network" via the control panel to access the internet. What I would like to do is implement a proxy that when I shutdown the Xbox the LAN doesn't give the "Network Cable Unplugged" notification. I wasn't sure if there was a way to make the connection stay open for so long after it should say unplugged. Such as if I need to restart the system and don't want to have to re-setup the network on the computer.
I have a program originally compiled in VS2008 on a WindowsXP Pro box. The program uses Microsoft DAO 3.5 Object Library to access an Access database.
When I try and run the program on Windows XP (any version) it runs just fine. If I try and run in on Vista (any version) it doesn't work. When I try and run it on Windows 7 Pro, it runs fine. I really want it to run on Windows 7 Home Premium, but I get an interop error anytime I try and access the database.

We have currently upgraded our development machines to Windows 7 and Office 2007. We have a vb 2008 app that references 2003 Office components to use for mail-merging to word.We loaded up our app in the vb environment today and were instantly greeted with missing components/functions which are related to the 2003 Office components. We can update these to use the Office 2007 components/functions instead, however we are unsure whether after doing this our vb app will work with machines only with Office 2003 on. can machines with Office 2003 on work with our vb app that references Office 2007 components?
i was wondering if someone could give me the final explanation on what i might be doing wrong here.I spent a lot of time reading around the net and the forum about how to add Threading capabilities to a VB project.
Nos, i've got .NET 4 installed, and i've added the system.tsr and mscorlib.dll files as reference in, say, Excel 2007 (see screenshot).However, when i try to make a thread with anything as basic as "Dim Thread1 As System.Threading.Thread", i get a user-defined type not found error.Indeed, when i use the object browser to see what's in the System file, theres nothing remotely linked to any Threading, and in the mscorlib file, nothing under "Threading" either, just a few Thread related functions, but nothing defining a data type
I've developed shared addin for Microsoft Word. I distribute this addin with my application and using Inno setup for installation. The Inno setup installs my application and then runs "myAddin.msi" file in order to install addin.

I've made Add-in for Word 2007 in VS2005.It worked well with Word 2007 and now it works well with Word 2010 32 bit.However it doesn't work with Word 2010 64 bit. The installation is successful, but the ribbon button doesn't show up.
Do you have any experience with add-ins for Office 64 bit?
I have used VB.NET and Microsoft Offices Interop to create an application that will run on a server and will print files for different users.My problem is that I need to find a way to impersonate different users so that when MS Word opens and prints, the resulting print job is recorded under that user. I found this link that lets you run .net code as a different user - unfortunately it doesn't work with this code. The username recorded is still the user that is logged on the server.Code Removed by moderator. Any ideas how I can make the Office app I'm automating run under a different user to the .net program that is calling it?
I would like to create Shared add-in that works with Word, Excel, Outlook and Power Point. I've found nice article that provides step by step instruction for creating shared add-in for Word: [URL] I've followed instructions and it worked. However, I am looking for a way to create one add-in that works with Word, Excel, Outlook and Power Point, not only Word. I didn't find any reference on the WEB.
Does anyone have any experience with UDP on a home network + particularly any experience with tinyUDP (attached)? i tried running it on my network + it doesn't receive the messages.
I've been messing around with the Arduino Mega for a while. (Doing a bunch of the small tutorials and the project "Secret door knock detector", Google it for more info) I understand how it hangs together, the programming and outputs, inputs and all, but I can't write anything of my own.
What I want to do is to use Visual Basic to make my own program that can send "a, b, c, d, or e" and so on, by clicking on buttons. Like they do here : arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/SwitchCase2 - only without Serial Monitor.
Example: I click a picture of a lightbulb in VB and a relay turns on lightsource. So I sorta want to send a or b or c and so on with pictures to controll different relays.
I have a simple task in DOT NET that is we take a thumbnail an one of the website home page, when we give an URL like in one text box that time control goes to home page of the specified URL and take a picture that home page as a thumbnail and stored in an our specified local disk like we give more than one an up to 100 URLS at a time and stored orderly stored in an our specified local disk
Is it possible to use the IADsUser method ChangePassword from and non-domain XP Home machine? I am able to access the user in AD by using the following method, from both a domain PC and a non-domain PC that's on the network.
I have a windows application developed in visual studio 2010. I would like to keep track of the usage of the app by measuring how often the app is used, where it is used etc... I also have a webserver on the internet that I was thinking of phoning home to.My thinking is that the if the app opens a particular webpage or just makes a http connection to the webserver (in the background) , the webserver logs will logs all the data I need.
How do I initiate a http connection to the webserver?
I am a Electrical student working on a project of Voice Enabled Home Automation. As this is a school project, my professor therefore disallow me to use any existing software/hardware readily available in the market for Home Automation.I therefore had to start everything from scrape. Regarding the Hardware side, i will use a RF600D/E chip to control the Home applicances (e.g. lighting switch, power point, curtain drawer)As for the software side, I therefore need the help of your expertist. I need to write a VB program using Microsoft Speech SDK 5.1 to control my RF chipset preferably using the computer Parallel port (no other circuit needed to interface to my RF chipset).When i voice out "Turn On Living Room Light", Parallel port pin 1 will turn on and off (Just a 50ms to 100ms of on time will do). The parallel port will be connected to my RF chipset input control which will in turns control my RF switch at remote end.
I am seeking for help to start the source code writing for my program as i had limited knowledge to software programming. Does anyone has source code that can capature particular Speech pre-save in a string. e.g. "Turn on the light", "Turn on the TV" and give a respond after a current Speech string was received? (For my case, will be trigger the parallel port)
I am trying to make the webbrowser get the link for Home via a textbox in the application. In the properties it has a value Url where you can write which site you want to have as Home. I want to do it from a textbox .. is it possible?
I want to auto press Page Up and Home.I use SendKeys but I don't know how to repeat that until I click the stop button. I basically need to know how to keep doing commands until clicking on a stop button (like auto press).
I want to build an application that checks every second for certain windows and then react according to that.
My Goal:I'm building the application for a pc in a Students Home with about 10 users. To create 10 different user accounts for windows will be annoying and crowded, because new people come in every year(or couple of months) and then old accounts have to be deleted and new ones created.
I want to build an application that accepts folderPaths or window names.Lets say user1 creates a folder with the name "Susan" that she wants to protect (her personal files/picture/work will be stored there. She opens the application, selects the folder. The application saves the folder path and her password that she enters.
If the application detects that a user is trying to open/move/delete/copy/whatever that folder, the app must pop up a password box. Correct password gives her the freedom she wants, wrong password just ignores the open/move/delete/copy/whatever command.
I cannot install Visual Basic 6.0 Pro Edition on my new computer which is on Windows 7 Home Edition. My old computer croaked, and I am trying to install it on my new computer with the disc that I have from installing on my old computer. The new computer is 64-bit Dell machine. The error message that I get is: "Microsoft has problems with this software on this Windows Edition". This is the essence of the message; may not be exact. I read about WOW as a work around, but how can I work around when I can't get it to install?
As Vista, comctl32.ocx is not accepted by Windows 7, I tried your workaround typing "regsvr32 -u comctl32.ocx" in a dos window, but another error is generated, specifying that the file was not found. But I verified, comctl32.ocx is really present under this name in system32 folder.
We have a desktop application that is under maintenance,developed using VB.Net 2005. There are couple of installations for this app. One of the users is using TS. We use the API GetWindowsDirectory that returns the user's home directory where we place .ini file. And this worked well.Recently, we modifed few vb.net forms. But the code related to looking for .ini file was not touched. When we compiled the app and sent the update to the client, the user now reports that under TS,the app is looking for .ini file shared windows i.e. C:windows rather than the user's home directory. What can go wrong? Why is GetWindowsDirectory not returning me the user's home directory?
