This code is stored in a registry file. All i need to do is invoke this script on an event handler say button_click.Options i have is write this code as a string and execute this string.. or simply have a collection of *.reg files which i may execute on button_click.I understand my app requires UAC, and i would be giving that permission for my app in App Manifest. how to execute registry file (.reg) stored placed in a folder?
I'm using VB.NET application. [code] Can anyone tell me how to read the full path from registery key? [code] I have no idea knowing what it is That's why i need to get it from the registry. Whatever path is in that registry entry is the path I need.I just want my VB.NET program to determine the full path from the registery key.I know that the registery key is: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREQuickProjects.QSUpdat.What I meant by "full path" is the location of where the registry key been installed.

[code] using regedit.exe i double check and Software\QuickProjects.QSUpdate exist.If you know how to find out the path from registry key, please let me know.
View 4 RepliesIf I use REGSVR32 to register THREED32 on a mapped network drive (N:) then the registry enry INPROCSERVER32 Path THREED32 has N: as the drive. If Iuse REGSVR32 to register itand put the UNC path i.e. \192.168.0.100SOFT in the command line theNPROCSERVER32 path has the UNC path in it.But, no matter how we try and registerour own DLL's made in VB6, the INPROCSERVER32 path always has a UNC path and not the network drive letter.

View 10 RepliesI am trying to change the DWORD value in a specific registry path. It starts with the user who is entering the value in decimal into a text box. Then with the click of a button, the application takes that value and change the existing value of the DWORD to the new one typed into the text box. I think I have manage to get it to work with "strings" but I seem to get stuck when it comes to the DWORD key. I have a feeling it have something to do with the hexadecimal value which is set by default. Do I need to create a converter?

I suppose technically this isn't .NET specific but I suspect this is something to do with the registry and I'm using .NET!I'm trying to find out how to get the fully qualified path relating to a file type.For example, the system knows that to open a PDF file it needs to launch C:Program FilesAdobeAdobe Reader 10.0Readeracrord32.exe
I've had a good long search through the registry and found a lot of references to the adobe path probably too many - and I've edited them to try and "break" the process so I can identify which one is used to discover the path but with no luck. I'm assuming this has something to do with HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT?
Using FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(path), I get what I need most of the time. All the properties are there. But... I have this one folder that most of the properties for this object are NOTHING... except the [Name] property.

I'm using VB.NET in Visual Studio 2008 in a Vista 64-bit OS. I'm trying to find an easy way (there must be one) to quickly retrieve from the registry the application file name and path to use in a Shell command to open a particular file. Specifically, I want the user in my app to be able to click on a PDF file and have the app open that PDF file using the application associated with PDF file types - Acrobat Reader, for example. Anyone have any suggestions as to proper coding & syntax for the following sequence?:
(1) Get name of .exe file associated with .pdf file type (most likely from the HKey Root Classes hive)
(2) Get path for the .exe file
(3) Shell("[pathname]appname.exe filename.pdf")
I've spent a couple of hours looking through the forums and haven't found what I'm looking for.

My program consists of a TextBox and a Submit Button. When I press the submit button, the entry in the Textbox will be copied to the active window (notepad for example).I would like to let my program executes the "Submit Button" when I'm already on notepad. So I do not need to switch to my program to Press the Button, but instead, when pressing the BackSpace button on notepad, the submit button of my program will be executed.I hope I gave enough details, I do really need to know how to do that.By the way, I heard that we can load the content to cach or something like that, i did not really get the point... But maybe "cach" and "load" will give you more ideas...
View 3 RepliesI am looking for a method to dynamically execute blocks of code ('tasks') in a VB.Net program for a mobile robot. The bulk of the program is running in the background retrieving variables from serial ports, APIs, and the like. The user would select a task in the form of a toolbox button which pops up a dialog to enter task parameters. An accept button would add the task with the parameters to a list. The user would add more tasks to the list as necessary, and then click an 'Execute' button to start the sequence of tasks. The program would then perform the first task with the given parameters until finished, and then start the next task in the sequence and so on.
An example task would be:
GPS Navigate:
A Parameter dialog opens and a destination is entered in the form of GPS coordinates. At run-time the task compares its current GPS position with the position entered in the parameter dialog. It calculates the direction to go and drives the motors accordingly. This particular task would loop until current position = destination position. Move on to next task. The code within the tasks themselves is not the problem, just the execution of the tasks.

I have a UserControl, we'll call it myUC, that is one among several UserControls in the main window(myWindow) of my WPF application. myUC contains a number of standard controls, one of them being a button, we'll call it myButton.
When I click myButton, I would like to execute myMethod, which exists in the code-behind of myWindow.
The problem being that myUC doesn't have any idea that myWindow even exists, much less that myMethod exists.
How can I send the message: 'Hey, myWindow, wake up. myButton on myUc was just clicked; run myMethod'?

I'd rather not go into the detail of the problem, because it's a lot of typing... but the functionality of vb.net (when making a web application) is quite annoying.
This is what it does...Page1.aspx loads, then you push a button on the page, and that button then does this: Response.redirect("Page2.aspx")
But first, it does Page1's load event, then it does the btn.Click event, THEN it does Page2.aspx's load event... Is there a way to force it to not do Page1's load event, and just make it execute the button click, and the page2's load event?
I would like this button:

then there is two radio buttons one says enabled and one says disabled what they do is check the registry after the button has been clicked on and depending on if the registry is set for 0 or 2 0 for disabled 2 for enabled...
I've tried various ways but I cannot get the radio buttons to check properly
