How can I disable temporarily a module ? If it cant then how can I disable the sounds of my form? I have a mouseover, hover and click event sound in my form and I want it to be disabled in my options. I make a module thinking that if I can disable my module but the use of a checkbox then it might work but if it will not the how can I do that? im thinking also of a simple if statement but I prefer simplier ones like disabling my module.
I want to play system sounds with .NET code in my app - no problem if I want to use Beep, Asterisk etc as I can just use: My.Computer.Audio.Play SystemSound(Media.SystemSounds.Asterisk)But what if I want to play something like 'Menu Pop-up'? This sound is off by default in the Windows Default Sound Scheme, but if the user has set this sound up to do something then I want to play it.The user could have assigned any wav file to this action so I want to find which (if any) sound they have assigned and play it. Compatibility with Windows versions back to XP is also essential.
I know how to access and play the system sounds using vb.net, and I also know that using the registry to save users' settings isn't ideal, however, The details of my project are rather long and drawn out, so I'll skip most of them Basically my program is loaded onto several computers on our network. The entire purpose of this program is to sound various alarms on different dates and times. Apparently I am to set up the program so that the different alarm sounds can be configured through Windows' control panel.
I can add the program into the appropriate part of the Registry in order to make that happen. The problem is reading the the information back. Under the name of the app, I have four different subkeys, each with the name of one of the alarms. Under those keys are two other subkeys, .default and .current. How do I get the sound from .current to play? For some weird reason I get null returned any time I try to read the key that I created.
i have a button in my application that starts a function to play sounds.But when the function starts a have a problem that my application stops working until all the sounds are played. Then a want to display a waiting screen to show the status of the current application. To this i thought to create a new thread to open the waiting window and then show the messages.
But i have a problem that when my thread finishes, it closes the waiting screen. I tryied to put a loop inside my thread, but this crashes my aplication until the loop condition is satisfied.

In VB.NET, I have a LinkButton that, when clicked, creates a report. We want to disable this functionality based on whom is logged into the system. I have a session variable to indicate whether this should be visible or not but when I set idLinkButton.visible = False, it has no effect. Any ideas on what I need to do to be able to turn this on and off?
I'm writing an application which has user authentication system, basically, when the user open the software, he has to enter his/hers username and password which are retrieved form a access data base, and if the user is set as admin then it enable some features, I couldn't figure out how to read the column lets say, IsAdmin table, which will store an value of 1 or 0 for example. I need a concept of how build a login system with levels or whatever you guys call it...

I've got a really good idea for an application I want to develop and possibly try and sell online. There is one thing I have never done before, and that is disabling an application after 30 days. Let's say I want to let users try out the application for 30 days, and if they haven't bought it after that time, then the application disables itself.
Any possible ideas on how to implement something like this?
I now changed the name of my vb.net application from "Ghost" to "Ghostz" and the new generated file name is "Ghostz.application" but the problem is that the old users when they will run the setup.exe file will lunch the "Ghost.application" file. How can I disable that for them and tell them with an error messag
Ever since upgrading to Visual Studio 2010, I'm running into an issue where the first web request of any type (WebRequest, WebClient, etc.) hangs for about 20 seconds before completing. Subsequent calls work quickly. I've narrowed down the problem to a proxy issue.If I manually disable proxy settings, I don't experience this delay:
Dim wrq As WebRequest = WebRequest.Create(Url) wrq.Proxy = Nothing
What's strange is that there are no proxy settings enabled on this machine in Internet Options. What I'm wondering is if there is a way to disable proxy settings for my entire project in one shot without explicitly disabling as above for every web object.
The main reason I want to be able to do this is that I'm trying to use an API [URL] which uses web requests, but does not provide any way to manually disable proxy settings.I have found some information suggesting that I need to add some proxy information to the app.config file, but I get errors building my program if I make an edits to that file.

I am confused what will happen, when I disable a timer. Will it finish the process and then disable or will it immediately disable without completing process? for example
[Code]....
I want to run getMessage from somewhere else, so I need to disable timer during that time to be asured not to override anything and also before timer disable it should complete that function code.
Is there an easy way to disable all form validation when the user clicks on the "X" icon to close an application or when the user clicks on a button in the application that closes the application?[url]...
I have a windows forms application written in VB.NET which scrapes information from serveral web pages (who doesn't right)? Anyway, I am having problem with one particular site where partway through the page navigation my application hangs. When I press pause (or break) in the debugger, it stops on a call to System.Windows.Forms.Application.DoEvents.
Resuming execution shows that it really is stuck on this line (it does not reach the next line of code). It also hangs about the same point each time I run it (at least its consistent). Since System.Windows.Forms.Application.DoEvents yields to other threads on the same processor and then resumes execution of the current thread, I think the problem is that some other thread is not behaving well (not returning from some event handling code). I thought Windows 7 was pre-emptive, which makes me doubt that theory but I really don't know.
[Code]...
The program scrapes somewhere between 12 and 14 pages before it gets stuck on the call to DoEvents. Does anyone have a clue why this would happen? Why would any call to DoEvents hang?
I am trying to clean up my code in a project I have been working on by creating two separate modules one that disables a service and one that enables a service through the registry all of this worked fine in one big form all together but I would like to also reuse the module in some other projects, I am getting this message however "Warning1Function 'ApplicationLayerGatewayDisable' doesn't return a value on all code paths. A null reference exception could occur at run time when the result is used". [Code]. what do i need to do to get rid of these warnings ? or do I just ignore them?
I am writing a small visual basic application to install clean up tools quickly on any machines that we need to work on here at my workplace. I am using 4-5 cleanup programs that I have packaged into MSI's and have batch scripts that I am calling in my visual basic application to run them as silent installs. However, because I am doing the silent installs, windows always pops up with the "open file - security warning" and I have to click run for each individual program. I am wondering how to get around this from my end within the application. I know it can be disabled in windows but I am not wanting to have to go through a process on every machine that I run this program on. I would like to find a fix on the back end in my script.
I have recently created an application with Visual Basic.NET. I published my application and installed it. Now the question is that I need to know where exactly does the application gets installed on my system ?
well i wanted to make a piano with visual basic 2008 and i searched around the internet to see how to play a sound but my search returned results relating only to visual basic 2005 & 6 so i am again forced to waste your time
i need a way to play wav and mp3 sounds using vb net. its has to be able to play more than one sound at same time and also to play the same sound again even if it has not finished playing
i tried this
Code: Dim ch As String ch = Chr(34) & TextBox1.Text & Chr(34) mciSendString("open " & ch & " alias s1", Nothing, 0, 0) mciSendString("play s1", Nothing, 0, 0)
it plays the sound once then will not play any other sound at all.
