My main Application A starts a 3rd party Application B that runs as a console application. So I don't have access to the Application B source code. When specific things happen in Application A, I can properly launch a vb.net Application C that I built, which properly shuts down Application B, by sending a Ctrl-C signal to it, the same as hitting Ctrl-C in a console window. But I cannot have this occur on Windows shutdown because Application B shuts down on its own before I even have the chance to launch Application C to shut it down. Is there a way to keep some kind of control over Application B when I launch it, or any way to have it be last in the shut down of programs in Windows?
My app is having problems shutting down in a WinXP environment. I thus want to simulate a Windows shutdown in the VB.Net IDE and then debug my code but is this possible?
I have an application that starts from Sub Main and I need to run a sub when the system is about to shut down, restart or logoff so it can save it's settings. I found some code on google:
Imports Microsoft.Win32 Public Sub Main AddHandler SystemEvents.SessionEnding, AddressOf OnShuttingdown
I want to detect when employees in our company are shutting down or restarting their computers. Is there a Windows API Call that will do that which I can hook onto? I found WindowsExitEX but it actually restarts the computer!
I am designing a program that will show a reminder form when the computer is shutting down. (The reminder is to go outside and get the Bluetooth gps aerial.) I have tried using the formclosing event, (triggered by windows shutting down) to flash the form up on the screen using windowstate = normal. (At loading, the form windowstate = minimised). This did not halt windows shut down and the form was only on the screen for a fraction of a second before windows shut down. Can I trap windows shutdown until the form btn_Yes has been selected?
I think this msdn library article is talking about this. [URL]
I have looked at the enumprocess api, but this is quite a bit outside my current knowledge level. From what I have read, enumprocess would be suitable as we all run the same program on our laptops and I could check for the change of state of that program. Eg. �OK, program A is closing, the computer must be about to shutdown, so flash up the reminder form.�

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 am having trouble sorting out a list of items pulled out of the databse, by the date stamp they have on it. I mean the table is called Marks with columns Homework_ID, Pupil_ID, Marks,Comment. Then there is another table called Homework with columns HW_ID, Class_ID, HW_name, HW_set, HW_due. The HW_set and HW_due are dates in format YYYY-MM-DD. Right, I can pull it out of database easy what I want but then how do I order it by the date when the HW was set ? is it some tweak in the query ? or do I need to write some code for it
I am calling external DLL (written in Fortran) function that has a multidimensional array argument. In VB6 the array is column major (the same as Fortran). However, I recently noticed that in VB.Net the array passed to the DLL seems to be in row major.
I am developing a Blackjack game in VB.Net using Visual Studio 2008. I have Picture boxes to display the players cards. The issue I have is that when the player chooses to hit , the third card stacks properly over the first two, but on the forth hit,the picturebox(which contains the forth card) appears under the third card. The same happens for the fourth , fifth, and sixth card . I have looked at the properties for the picturebox hoping there was some kind of index (similiar to zindex in css) to order the cards so they would would "stack" on top of one another but leaving the numbers of the cards visible, to no avail as I am here posting I have a screenie of the situation to better illuminate my struggle.
If you look at the picturebox with the 8 of diamonds card in it , everything is fine, but you will notice that the 10, 4, and 8 of clubs is underneath. I would like these cards to stack as the 4 of clubs, the 9 of diamonds and the 8 of diamond did.

I have inherited a frankenstein VB6 "Converted" to VB.NET winform application. This application has a metric ton of fields in it, the users rightfully complained that the tab order is off (after a certain point it starts jumping all over the form).Figuring something in tab order was off, I went in and turned on View > Tab Order and it looked good. To be sure I went through the form again fresh and when I'm in tab order view all is well, but when the app runs it still starts jumping around the same area as before?! Has anyone else encountered this and how did you resolve if you did?

I want them to go in order. But what it is doing at the moment is going to the third if statement first.
i am creating a maths program that works out five number summarys of a range of data. i am having trouble working out the median in a group of numbers.so far i have used the code below to declare all the the inputs.

i am completly stuck for how to order the variables, and find the middle no.. as i am using 11 variables, the middle no would be the 6th in the order..
(All of the names on the ListBox are actually .txt files, which contain different values that can be put into the program by a certain window.)
I'm trying to use a ComboBox to order items in a list by a certain value. So say I select "Sort by Alphabetical" in the ComboBox, I'd want it to sort the items in the ListBox in alphabetical order.
Also, if I were to have a certain value in the .txt files that I would like to sort by, is there a way I could order by that?
I decided to take up the task of writing an app for Dungeons and Dragons. I play with my friends and I'm trying to make it a little bit easier.Before every round of combat players roll dice for Initiative. It basically tells the games manager who goes first and in what order the rest of the players go. When players roll for initiative they roll 20 sided dice. On Form1 I have a button that says "Initiative" which opens another window where the manager would type in each players values. Then I want the program to take those values and order the players from highest to lowest in a list on Form1. Kind of like...
I have a classic scenario with a twist, containing the following tables: Users, Roles, UsersInRoles.In my webpage I have some Comboboxes (i.e. DropDownList + TextBox), one for each Role which contain all the Users for that particular Role. What I would like each of them to contain instead is a full list of all users, but grouped and ordered like so...Users for only the given role (ordered by name) - My intention is to highlight these items.The rest of the users, with no repeats (ordered by name)I have been playing around with some SQL and VB trying to work my way toward a solution, but it is not clear yet which is the best approach, nor how to fully implement the solution. I have only figured out small bits and pieces. Forgive me for refraining from posting any code for now. I hoping for some fresh ideas and a clever solution that won't put a lot of demand on the server.
And the query I wrote to that gave me all the subgroups I need to get to where I want I think.
select u.ID, Name, RoleID from UsersInRoles inner join Users u on UserID = u.ID --This is only to return a name rather than ID order by ReviewerRoleID, Name
Using the recommendation by Tim, I may use some codebehind like this to bind to each respective drop down list. The one concern I have is that I'm performing a query for each Role which poses a potential burden on the server every time the page is accessed by a user.
Private Sub PopulateUserInRoleCombobox(ByVal key As Integer, ByVal ddl As DropDownList) Try Dim dt As New DataTable Using connection As New SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("tcomConnectionString").ConnectionString) Dim spSelect As New SqlCommand("spGetUserInRoleList", connection)

how best to write the Javascript for styling each list item depending on if it's a member of the given role or not.
i use a linq query to pull data from an xml inventory and place it in a a DGV, problem is the column ordering appears to be in the same order as the properties and fields in the row object class and not the order extracted from the xml with LINQ. I suppose i could rearrange the class so that it refects the column ordering i need but i'm wondering is there a way i can control programatically the order of the columns for my DGV? and why does it use the class structure rather than the query structure anyway? the class is done alphabetically as i wrote it with class diagram and class details, the LINQ query is in the order i need it in.
I am using a where comparer in the below snippet from my function.. I need to order or sort the returned items by one of the columns... I tried using .OrderBy(function(f) f.regDate) but that dont work at all... The part of the function in question looks like this:

The Code I have so far is:

finally my programme works. It will test the other programme, which is a Bid Tabulation programme allowing up to 10 Supplier Quotes each one having up to 500 line items; handling mixed currencies; many additional lines of specific information; etc.; using any combination of Suppliers and Line Items.However, I thought that I would let you know about some of the things I had to do to make it run.Obviously, the programme can bring up the Bid Tabulation programme very quickly, and then moves on to obtain the handle of the first form. But I had to insert a timing delay in order for the programme to report that it had found the handle; I also had to add the same delay all over the programme in order to see a valid handle number instead of "0".In addition to this I had to cycle through the ChildHandles, as you had indicated in order to get to the handle I needed. This raised another problem. I wanted to enter information in the same sequence as the tab order, but I found that the ChildHandle order was all over the place; generally back to front. In other words the tab order which went from top to bottom, and left to right, whereas the ChildHandle order was sometimes all over the place.
Is there a simple method of rearranging the ChildHandle order, as there is for arranging the tab order? I had to reformat several of my forms in order that entries would make sense. Imagine the table below is a form with 23 TextBoxes. The order that I need them to be filled is from top to bottom, and left to right, but the actual order of the TextBoxes is as below: [code] This message does not really require a resolution to a problem, unless there is a way of re-ordering the handles without having to completely reformat the form.
It is possible to create windows service using windows form control in vb.net. give me the url or links. The windows forms control such as, Timer control, list-box, notify-icon control etc.
I have a multi-dimensional array storeHand(20,6) which stores 6 ints. The int at point 0 in each array represents a rank. So the array ends up looking like this:
I want to re-order the array so that the higher the integer value at position 0 is, the higher it's position will be in the sortedHand(20,6) array. So as above, I'd want sortedHand(20, 6) to look like this at the end:
