Let's say 10 desktop shortcuts, all with different names/icons, point to and can start the same exe application from the same directory. Is there any means for the application to know the distinct name of the shortcut that was doubled_clicked. Also is there any means for a running application to know if it was started by command line, by a double_click on the exe, by a double_click on a shortcut that points to it, or by another process' call?
View 4 RepliesI have a 3rd party program that has an internal messaging system built into it. The messages are stored in SQL. What I am doing is writing a program that will query this database on a specific interval and if it finds a message for a specific user it will take the text of that message and send it to the users email address(ie. gmail, yahoo, etc.). The issue is when the program quesries I only want it to grab the message that have not been sent. Each message in the system gets an ID assigned to it so what I'm trying is everytime it finds a message to send to the user it will write the ID of that message to a text file so that next time the query comes around it will compare the ID in the text file to the most recent ID in the database and if it is newer message it will get it and send it. I'm not trying to display any data from the query, just take the messsage text and send it.

I have a backup program that is currently running in our Corporate Environment on about 70 machines. A mixture of Laptops, Desktops and Windows (xp-32, vista-32, vista-64, 7-32-7-64) with no problems.
There is one exception, and it's the reason I'm posting here for assistance.On one machine that is a Dell Latitude running Windows 7 64 bit with .Net 4 Framework installed the console application will crash immediately before it starts Sub Main. It simply give the generic windows error "A problem caused the program to stop working correctly." with no option to see debug info.

View 1 RepliesThrough COM, one can potentially gain absolute control over a target system. For example: using javascript's ActiveXObject object in IE, one can create certain objects which were designed to have direct access or interaction with system properties and files.One would think common sense dictates users disable ActiveX features in IE immediately after installing the browser to ensure their system is protected while surfing the net, or at least paying close attention to which websites they permit. But, I doubt many average PC users know how or why to do this, or just get tired of mirco-managing it over time. I think any PC user or admin my COM class caters to would greatly appreciate not having to deal with that. Thankfully it looks like IE versions come packaged with ActiveX disabled by default nowadays.
I've built a very versatile COM class library in VB. I didn't intend for it to be callable from any website, but that feature is just part of the COM platform. I'd like to prevent the library from being called from IE unless the website is on a white-listed domain to proactively protect the user (and ultimately their entire intranet) from harm from malicious websites. What would be the best method in VB.Net to tell which application called my DLL, to be able to tell if it was called from any command or process originating from IE? And, what domain called my dll? System.Environment.GetCommandLineArgs()(0) gets me the calling application path. With this info, I can compare it to a black/white-list of applications.
About 5 years ago I wrote this program in Excellusing VBA to compute commissions, income and expenses for the real estate agents in my wife's business.The company is made up of about 50 agents. Part of the program includes a combobox on a main form when a name was selected it also selected, the agent id, and the split the agent was on. It would calculate the split expense that my wife got by multiplying the split percentage from the combobox times the total commission.The main form also contained various other comboboxes, list boxes, and text boxes to gather such info as property address, selling price, titles company, transaction credit,income,Once all the info was complete my wife was asked if she wanted to save the transaction. If the answer was yes, the info was transferred to the permanate database, a commision report for the agent and my wife was printed out, and the temporary database was cleared.
View 1 RepliesWe're using team build with AssemblyInfoTask to increment the build number in a nightly build. The build number is displayed in the application using My.Application.Info.Version.Build.This has been working fine for years. But since we branched the sources and started using file references instead of project references (have no idea if that's what causes the problem), the last build number is displayed instead of the current one.
The compiled files (dll's and exe's) have the correct build number, if checked by right clicking the file in Explorer and viewing detailed properties. However when the same exe-file is executed, the UI displays the previous build number.If I edit the AssemblyInfo.vb file manually (just set another number, save the file, and set it back again), both file properties in Explorer and the UI at runtime displays the correct build number. How can this happen? What can be done to avoid this strange behavior?
I have a problem where I am running a Console App to obtain some computer information on a pc. The pc has the following specs:
Windows XP Media Center Edition 2002
Service Pack 3
2 GB RAM
.NET Framework 3.5
The script runs fine on my Vista Ultimate PC. However, my friend runs it on his pc and nothing is written to the file. The directory and the file are being created, but nothing is in the file. Is there something that I am missing about XP Media Center Edition?
