Dec 31, 2009catch statements - it works well just checking my disk drive for a file, if an error is thrown then I open the disk tray and ask them to put the disk in, click OK on the message box and it performs another check for the file, if this fails the button that starts all this is disabled on my main form (the code is shown below).
Okay, so my problem is I'd like to have the message box pop up and the have the drive open up (using an API which I have) either at the same time or in the order of: message box then drive open. I can see two ways to do this: Have the commands happen at the same time (Can you even do this?) OR Have the message box appear and then open the disk drive (but how I could achieve this I don't know as the message box waits for the user to click OK...

Feb 25, 2012I'm evaluating the best approach to implement the following periodic task:

My first thought was a console-based app in C# or VB.net but now that I realize that running a PS Script remotely using C# can be quite a challenge I'm starting to think in alternatives like perform all the stuff using PowerShell, I guess this is a better approach but I'd like to hear your thoughts on this.

Execute 3 Commands (SQL Statements) To 3 Different Oracle Tables At One Shot?
Apr 24, 2012I'm implementing an application using vb.net 2005 with oracle 10g and I came across a functionality that should Select/Insert/Update/Delete data from three different tables in oracle.So I`m wondering if there is a way to prepare all the 3 commands (SQL Statements) separately and then execute them in one shot to the oracle, so in this way I can guarantee that all of them are successfully executed or all are failed to execute, and also I could gain more performance which is critical in my case.Thus I`m looking for a syntax in vb.net that helps me execute more than one OracleCommand in one shot to the oracle.

Stop App From Command Prompt?
Feb 22, 2009Before posting this question I have carried out a few searches on this forum but I am afraid I am struggling because I am very new to Visual Basic and although I do have some programming background, yesterday was day 1 and I took a web tutorial and watched a few video tutorials. (Long way to go!).
OK to the question and I know I should really not ask 2 but It's better to get them both in one post I think.
I want to build a small utility to run a form in full screen to basically hide an old application running in the background.
My old application is a database (Non VB code) which works very well but while it batch exports a lot of data the software displays some pretty ugly windows, I want to call my VB utility from a command prompt with 1 or more switches to display some meaningful text about where it is in the routine.
I also want to be able to send a switch at the end to close it completly.
Q1 - What is the best way to manage command prompt switches ?
Q2 - How do I make it close itself ?
