I have built some simple software using vb2008 and excel to automate the process of ordering material and keeping track of work in progress at my business...Once the product is complete, it moves into a stock room and waits for invoicing.I have a dedicated accounting package that is far more advanced than what I can program...I want to know if there is a way to control this package as if a user was moving around the screen and clicking and inputing info?Or another means of control?
I am currently working on some software for a taxi company, and we have been asked to create a webbrowser (only simple) for the users which we allow to use it, to view traffic updates from a website that we already know about.

Question: I want to control cmd.exe from winforms. I DO NOT mean every command in a single process, with startupinfo, and then stop. I mean for example start the (My) SQL or GDB command prompt, send command, receive answer, send next command, receive next answer, stop SQL command prompt exit process. Basically I want to write a GUI on top of any console application.
Ok, so I've been doing some looking around lately, trying to figure out how I can get maximum control over a download. So I can control things like:Download speedWhere to start the transaction(Byte Offset, like in a Stream?)Where to end the transaction (Byte Offset, like in a Stream?)

I want to have a min and a max functionality to my app. When the user clicks the minimize button I want the form to go to taskbar which is easily done.
However the user clicks on the maximize button i want the form to go to a specific size (470,999) to be exact.
Private Sub app_Resize(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Resize If Me.WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized Then
[Code]....
but it maximizes to the screen size. how to control the maximize screen button? I don't want to change the formborder style setting from sizeable because I like the way it looks like this. I just want to get the min max buttons to go to sizes that I want them to go to.
another thing is there a way to save the size of the app that the user has it set to before they send it to taskbar then when the user brings it off the taskbar is there a way to bring it back to that size?
I was working with TabControl on a form.I wish to restrict the selection of the tabs on the form...For example, The user will start with the 0 index Tab selected by default.As he selects an option from that tab pane n confirms his selection, The next tab gets selected. I could develop a code for this like this tabcontrol1.selectedindex = 1 'Or 2 or 3 according to the need But Now I find that at runtime I can switch back to some other previous tabs or some forward tabs.... Which I do not want. I simply want the tabs to be activate in a flow...
my program launches a 3rd party program with a few switches to update itself.Once these updates are complete I need to manually click save from the applications menu. This can be done via the keyboard (Alt Gr + M then Alt Gr + S)
The application will take several seconds to load at which point the application will open maximised and the save option will be enabled.

What I'm trying to do is load a URL and grab the text from it.The text on the file I'm using is simply a 1, that's all. However, when the messagebox shows, it's empty. I've tried using google.com as the URL and got the same response, so that means it's somewhere in my code here.

When I use My.Computer.Network.DownloadFile this will sometimes start downloading two copies of the file simultaneously. I wonder if there is a code to check whether there are more than one file being download at a moment, and if there is a code to cancel some of the downloads.

If I write many subs and functions in my code, the tools on the interface will stop responding to some of the subs and functions. What can I do about that?
With many of the programs that I use, I have noticed that the file dialog boxes automatically enter a new folder (if I create a folder thru the dialog box). But my OpenFileDialog boxes don't do that in my programs.When I open the OpenFileDialog and press the New Folder button, the box stays in the current directory and I am forced to click into the new folder. I have researched the OpernFileDialog and I don't understand how to change this behavior. I want to eliminate this extra click to enter the new folder.
Are there any books written with the focus on how to control MS Office (Excel, Word, Powerpoint) through VB.net applications? I only have checked the book Professional Excel Development that shows a little bit on automating Excel from VB.net. I would need a much more comprehensive book (or links to web learning pages) on the issue.
I have no difficulty creating and operating a regular notifyicon... But I have an issue - more with method than with the code itself...
Here is what I am doing - I have a notifyicon that changes colour based on the status of a service - this is not an issue...
However, I want the icon to be able to appear via a startup program itself instead of from inside the service (obviously if the service is STOPPED the icon will not be visible making it difficult to start)
The service also changes the icon colour when it is performing a specific timed task (the purpose of the service) - I may also want to force the service to perform the task from yet another application outside the preset interval....but that is a seperate issue at this time...
the best way to have a notifyicon that can control a service(easy) while being able to be controlled BY the same service.(the issue)
I'm trying to create a program that will let the user input any number in the first input box then a second input box will pop out asking the user for the time interval of that job. If the time interval is lesser it will come first to listbox3. The loop of how many times the user will ask depends on the inputted number of the user in textbox1
Example input and output. 3 loops. Enter any number for job 1: 2 Enter time arrival for job 1: 8
Enter any number for job 2: 3 Enter time arrival for job 2: 4
Enter any number for job 3: 1 Enter time arrival for job 3: 6
Listbox1: 2 3 1
Listbox2: 8 4 6
Listbox3: 3 1 2
As you can see Listbox1 orders the number base on the first number that the user inputted in the first inputbox. Listbox2 orders the number base on the first number that the user inputted in the second inputbox. Listbox3 orders the number base on the time interval that the user inputted in 2nd inputbox, the lowest number must be the first in Listbox3. How can I use array to order the numbers?
Private Sub StartButton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles StartButton.Click Dim finish As Integer = TextBox1.Text Dim A As Integer [Code] ....
