Monitor The Registry For Changes Similar To How Sysinternals Process Monitor ?
Jan 31, 2011Can I monitor the registry for changes similar to how sysinternals process monitor does it in VB? I have checked many different articles and C# samples but not come any closer to getting an answer, I would like to know if there an easier way (a VB sample perhaps)that you folks can share. Ultimately I'd like to be able monitor other things too like file system, processes etc but wonder most about how the registry can be done in VB...Would using system.management be a start? Or WMI? if so is there a nice VB sample..

View 2 RepliesMonitor A Process's Progress Using A Form?
Feb 26, 2011Bit of a Noobie question here, I have a process, for example[code]...
I need to launch the process from within code in a form or module and I want to monitor its progress, for example with a progress bar.

I want the form to show then start running automatically without user intervention.

Form Objects Resizing On Different Monitor Screen Size?
Nov 29, 2011I designed a form which contains about 50 objects all kinds including tableadapters,buttions,grids, tabs. What is the best way to optimize the loading with less time consuming. I cannot split objects in on different form as all the objects has to appear on screen as a requirement.
But my primary question here is, i designed this form with all these objects on a 15" monitor which fitted 100% on the screen. Now i am using 17" monitor when i open this form on run time, all the objects are appearing as designed but theres a 30% form area which is left blank. How can i make the form objects resize automatically on run time itself to fit on different size of monitor with no area left blank.

Resize A Form , Its Controls According To User's Screen Settings And Physical Monitor Size?
Nov 19, 2010I am creating an application for a company and this CD will be distributed to hundreds of people. Many users will have different computer screen size and different screen settings such as their resolution set to 1024 x 728 and their monitor size 17" inches.
I noticed when I loaded the application on a different computer with different settings the application was to big for the screen and did not work. I notice that lot of other programs from microsoft resize their controls and text but never knew how they did it. How can I resize the form and control according to the user's setting.

View 3 RepliesSecond Instance Of A Form Displaying
Nov 10, 2009I've been working on a project now for some time and as a result, when I have something new to try out, I do a little "proof of concept" project and then port it over to my real project (mainly to make it easier to follow when trying to work out new issues).Up to now, I've been relatively successful at it.But here's what I'm running into with this particular project.First, a little background.When the operator enters data into certain input fields (textboxes), either a listview or a datagridview appears displaying multiple columns of information.Once the line is selected with the proper info (equip. id or type of job or whatever), that info gets displayed in the textbox.The problem occurs when display is clipped by the window size.Let's assume for simplicity sake that I can't enlarge the display window.
So I rethought that and decided to create another form that has no borders and the only item displayed is a bound dgv.So I created a proof of concept project that consisted of two forms: form 1 that contains a text box and form 2 that contains a dgv control.when run, form 1 is displayed.When I type a character in the textbox, it calls form 2 and searches the dgv for the first char I entered.Since form 2 is the current form, as I enter additional chars, I build the string, search and if the chars are valid input chars, echo them to the textbox.Once the data line on the gridview is found, the tab key is used to do the select, close form2 (the dgv) and populate the textbox of form 1.This all worked.That is until I tried to port it over into my real project.This is where I'm obviously missing some key aspect of VB.Net and how all the forms and threads and handles work.To get right to the issue and skip alot of what happens in my real project, I was able to duplicate the problem by just creating one more form in my proof of concept project that just has a button on it.That button when pressed, brings up form 1.When I start to type in the textbox, after I enter the first character, form 2 displays, which is as expected. But when I enter the second search character, a second instance of form 2 opens and it searchs for the second character I typed.If I enter another character, it gets added to the second char and located in the dgv of the second instance of form2.When I press the tab key, textbox of form 1 does not get updated but the second form2 does close.The first form2 remains.
Monitoring 12 Video Feeds From Video Cameras - NEXT Or FORWARD Button On My Monitor Form
Dec 24, 2009I am monitoring 12 video feeds from video cameras. Now I have more than 12 cameras, I have 134. But I will only monitor 12 cameras at a time. By Monitoring I mean, I have 12 small video screens on the form that I can see the video. The way I know which cameras are active, so I can monitor them is by a boolean value in a sql database. I run a Store Procedure in my program, and spit out the results in a XML file. I then read the XML file in a loop. This XML file will have a list of the camera names I need to monitor.
So that is for 12 video feeds. Now, I want to have a NEXT or FORWARD button on my monitor form. So when I click this it will give me the next group of cameras, 13 to 24. Now if I only have15 cameras that are active, that means the first group is 1 to 12, then the second group is 13 to 15 cameras. So I will only have 3 to monitor on the second grouping. One thought I had was to have another field in my table to mark as already as an active monitor, so when I run the SP, i will not select that row. But I need to select 12 at a time. Or I can make a number of xml files, one xml file for each grouping of 12, but I need to figure out how I can select the next group without re-selecting the first group. I have no code at the moment, I'm on my non-programming computer.

I'm not sure what is going on and don't know where to look.
View 3 RepliesDisplaying Form With WMP Control On Another Screen?
Jun 11, 2011I am writing a program to control light and sound for a show I'm working on.
The program has buttons and stuff controlling music and sound effects but I am at a loss as to how to get the video part to work.
My computer is hooked up to a projector in extended desktop mode. (I can't change that, otherwise my control panel would show up on the big screen.
I need the video to display on Screen 2 (the projector), so I made a form and used this code:
Dim screen As Screen
screen = screen.AllScreens(1) 'the array is 0 based
Form2.StartPosition = FormStartPosition.Manual
Form2.Location = screen.Bounds.Location + New Point(0, 0)
Form2.ShowDialog()
to display it when I press a button. This worked fine, I set form2's border to none and fullscreened it, tested again, no probs. My problem arose when I tried to add a WMP ActiveX control. I ran the program, pressed the button, and... form2 (along with WMP) appeared on my laptop display. I desperately need this by tomorrow. If no solution is available, is there an alternative to WMP?

Displaying Search Results In A New Form?
Jun 6, 2011i'm working with a sql (2005) database and using visual studio 2010. I've created a system where one of the forms is a find/search form. A user can enter in for example, a customerID and once they click on "find/search" the customerID will be searched in the database and if found, all relevant information about the customer will be retrieved and displayed in another form (find/search results page). I realise that this can be done using an SQL statement like follows
searchStr = "SELECT * FROM Customer WHERE CustomerID LIKE CIDTextBox.Text%"
What i'm unsure about is how to execute this SQL statement once the "find/search" button has been clicked and how to display the founded results in another form.
