Process.start() Freezes Main Program Until Process Finishes?
Feb 21, 2011I have a program that starts another program after setting the regkeys basically the program continually syncs the calandar of outlook and another application.I set the regkeys than launch the c:sync.exe app. I have tried a simple process.start and launching the process as a thread and they both do the same thing: The other process starts and works as it should but my main program goes "White screen" or "not responding" until the process.start has exited.
I want the process.start to run in the background so if users click in my main app it responds and truly that they can access the context menu of my main app from the taskbar while the process.start is running.
Process - Program That Will Paste Text Into A Second Program
Jun 10, 2011I mainly just build little apps that are mainly useful to me. So please be gentle.
I am currently working on a program that will paste text into a second program. The text will paste into several different fields automatically.
The problem I am running into is that I need my program to check for running processes(as the second app will already be running). I seem to have done this just fine. When I then need to "use" that process
I use myprocess.start()
This of course starts a second instance of the application in question.
How do I basically use a process that is running as if I used the command .start()?
VS 2005 Windows Services - Process Is Listed As A SYSTEM Process Rather Than A Process Under User Name
Jun 4, 2009I have written a windows service that is meant to launch a notepad when a specific action happens. The problem i have is that even though the service launches notepad, the actual notepad it self is NOT visible. I know that it has been launced because i can see the process in the task manager. By the way the process is listed as a SYSTEM process rather than a process under my user name (i believe that is because my process is a "LocalSystem" one).

View 4 RepliesProcess - Respond To Commandline Program ?
Jun 16, 2011I'm using VB.net to have a GUI on top of a commandline program.

Which works and prints out all output from the commandline program. However at some point the commandline program ask for user interaction, eg: Type a number (1/2/3/4):But the commandline program stops after this. I suspect this is because it doesn't receive a valid option.Is there a way to capture when the commandline program wants user interaction and hold the reading of the stream to be able to enable the user to input something?

Can't Save File Using A Command Line Program Using New Process
Oct 7, 2011I have been trying to fix this and make this work for pretty much three days now. I already solved one problem being, I can't use the shell on one HDD and create another file onto a different drive other then the drive that the directory of the application is running in.
EX:
If I run a program that is on the C: drive and using a working directory that is on the C: drive, I can not create a file onto the F: drive.
I got this problem when I was just using Shell(Environ$("Comspec") & " /c then the command")
So I decided to use Process()
Dim p = New Process()
p.StartInfo.FileName = "F:Visual Basic ProjectsCode TestingCode TestinginDebugToolsMediaInfoMediaInfo.exe"
