Forms :: Execute Raw Commands Typed In A Textbox?
Sep 11, 2010
I am working on a "de-bugging" back-end sorta thingy for my program, and I have a "dll" that executes most of the work for the program. For the ease of tech-support, I plan on trying to impliment a hidden back-door into the engine that is password protected and activated by a key-press. What I want to do is:when the enter key is pressed, have the dll run the sub that is listed in the enter key, for example:
In the dll:
Public Sub msg(ByVal text as string)
MsgBox(text)
[code]....

catch 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... I originally though of starting a timer just before and getting it to open the disk drive tray in the tick event,
Code:
Public Class Form1
'open cd-rom tray API
Private Declare Function mciSendString Lib "winmm.dll" Alias "mciSendStringA" (ByVal lpstrCommand As String, ByVal _

I'm evaluating the best approach to implement the following periodic task:
Get some users from SQL Server (2008) and then for each user enable licences in the Cloud (Office 365) using PowerShell.
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.

I cant understand why this works (Start a service "test" on a remote computer):
Dim rCommand As String
rCommand = "c:pstoolspsservice \computer -u admin -p blabla start test"
Shell("cmd.exe /c" & rCommand)
[Code]....
The above code that doesnt work starts a virtual machine on VmWare Server. I have the exact same line in a .bat file and if i call the batfile from VB it starts the batfile and execute the commmand. I cant understand why this doesnt work without the batfil when i have no problem executing the PsTools command from VB-code.

I'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.

I was recently assigned to do some research on how to approach a project. Right now we have an old program written in tcl. From this tcl program ( running on VMS client computer), we are able to run unix commands to execute processes on a unix server. This is done via tcpip. Now, we are thinking of making upgrades to this system . We are wondering if this kind of thing was possible with Visual Basic. Are we able to run a VB program on windows computer to run UNIX commands on a server? If so, what issues might be brought up. If anyone has even the briefest guideline or tip on this,

So, I made a program which connects with an access database. What I want to do is to make a custom sql commands instead of using the default "Fill" command that is generated when I insert for example a textbox which is connected with a column from my access database. So here is the command I wrote:
SELECT id, aa, code, credit_date, receipt, rewards, klm, subscriptions, place, various, notes
FROM credits
WHERE code = (CodeBox.Text)
Ok what I want to do and having trouble with, is having a textbox and the user who will use this program, to type a code in the textbox and make a search with this command above. What I can't understand is how to use the text of the textbox inside an sql command. I've not made the database connection with code, but as visual basic does it automatically, TableAdapter, DataSet, BindingSource and I can make a new command using the Query Builder with DataSet Designer!

while making my irc bot i need to send many different irc commands such as join channel, change mode, kick user message, topic channel message and so on. All these commands are currently process individually in a public sub on the irc connection thread.
Public Sub Write(ByVal command As String)
_streamWriter.WriteLine(command)
_streamWriter.Flush()
[Code]....
Would you have a load of public sub's to handle each or maybe something else?

I've created a new datasource dtsLogin containing an ID, username and password. my problem is how can you check if the username & password typed in the textbox are the same as the one on the Access database? I thought maybe using a rowfilter but I'm not that good in ADO.net.

I want to have a counter that measures when a mouse enters/leaves a form. To that extent I used the .mouseenter/.mouseleave commands. This works to an extent. The problem is that moving the mouse over any controls inside a form count as existing it- I don't want this. Is there a way to define the controls as a part of the form? Meaning- if the mouse was over one of my labels- it would count as being within the form. A less elegant way to measure form access could be to use the form positioning, and define capture any mouse movement within it.
