Using WSF (Windows Scripting File) To Retrieve Component Services Running Process ID's Using Running Process Name
May 7, 2009I am trying to write a Windows Script that will allow me to monitor the following: That 2 x seperate but specific processes within Component Services "Running Processes" list are currently running and have not reset within the past hour. If I already know the PID, then I can retrieve the CreationDate (I assume which I can use to check for restarts? or is this the actual process creation/installation date) for each specific process, however if a restart occurs the PID will change and my script needs to know what the new PID is without me telling it!

Aug 23, 2011I'm trying to run a command line argument through VB.NET using the Shell() command.I'm trying to use this piece of code:
FOR /R %I in (*.pdf) DO @pdf2swf.exe "%~fI" -o "%~dpI%~nI.swf" -f -T 9
-t -G
Using this:
Shell("FOR /R %I in (*.pdf) DO @pdf2swf.exe "%~fI" -o "%~dpI%~nI.swf" -f -T 9
-t -G ")
However, the interpreter is giving me this error:
Character is not valid. (BC30037)
For the %~ part.I also tried created a string and passing the argument to the Shell() command by using Shell(StringName) but I still get the same error in the string.

View 3 RepliesVS 2008 : Process.StartInfo.Arguments With A Collection Of Files?
Sep 19, 2009I need to pass a file's name as an argument and a switch to the executable I'm using.I'm doing it like this:
vb.net
proc.StartInfo.Arguments = "-z ""C: est.txt"""
I'll know where the files are that I need to grab, but I won't always know the exact names. So, I thought I could grab a collection of the files, store them in a variable, and then pass them as an argument.I tested it with one file like this:
vb.net
Dim File As New System.IO.FileInfo("C:...Desktop est.txt") Dim proc As New Process proc.StartInfo.WorkingDirectory = "..." proc.StartInfo.FileName = "....exe" proc.StartInfo.Arguments = "-z" & File & "additional arugments" proc.Start() proc.WaitForExit()
But, as you all may already know, I can't use the & operator with a string and FileInfo.Would I have to then convert the FileInfo to a string first and then pass it through?
Passing Command Line Arguments To Already Running Single Instance App
Jan 19, 2010I have a single instance database app that emails out notifications. I would like to add a link in the emails that when clicked would open up the app and go to the section of the program that its supposed to go to. I implemented my own URL protocol so that links starting with my codewords get passed to my EXE. So far so good. I then parse the URL and pull the keyword and identifier out to open that section of the program. So if a user clicks a link like this:
MyApp:LoadCompany?ID=323
My application will start, it will grab the arguments (LoadCompany?ID=323), pass this to my load company routine and then load up company ID 323. Works great.
Now the issue is if the program is already open I still want the links to work but since it's a single instance app it just closes the second app. How can I add something ot the app to watch for this or receive a message from the second app? I know I will need to check status of what I'm doing and make sure things are saved, check security, etc but I can get all that done easily enough. I've found some examples online but none really did what I wanted them to.
Force A .NET Dll Running In A 32 Bit Process To 'act' Like A 64 Bit Process?
Mar 2, 2011I am almost sure this isn't possible but it's worth an ask... We have a .NET DLL that is being called from our VB6 application. The VB6 app runs in a 32 bit process so the DLL runs in the same process (it's compiled as any cpu) Therefore when I do my ODBC Database access in the DLL is will only use a 32 bit driver, as this is what it thinks it needs (for the record the DB is Pervasive PSQL)
My problem arises when the application runs on a 64 bit machine (when only the 64 bit ODBC driver is installed) as it can't find a suitable driver to use. So is there a way to force the .NET DLL to run in a 64 bit process (compiling as x64 doesn't work because register for COM Interop is not allowed) This isn't necessarily an issue at this point in time because I can install the 32 bit driver, but at some point in the future I can imagine that 32 bit driver may not be available so I will be up the proverbial creek.

Given Process Is Running, Then End A Different Process?
Sep 18, 2009I hope the title gives a good description, i have read the forum posting tips at the top. Ive just joined the community and nice to meet you all. Anyways, I am trying to create a vb.net application for which it will check if a process is running in task manager, and if this process or processes are running to end a different process. Let me give you an example,
If processA, ProcessB is running then END ProcessC. If however ProcessA, and ProcessB are not running then ProcessC can stay active. I have started the project and am able to kill the processes etc. This is shown below.

Jun 27, 2010I need to create a program that checks to see if a certain process is running, but I need to check it at a predetermined interval, such as every 10 seconds. I also need it to relaunch the program if it disappears/crashes. I have no idea where to start, I'm assuming I'd have to use a timer and write a method that checks for this process and then another method to simply launch it.

View 1 Replies.net - Excel Process Continues Running?
Apr 15, 2011I'm calling the following method from a button click event to export a datatable to excel. After the export is completed, the excel application object is quit, released and assigned to nothing. But in reality it's not getting released and stays active unless the entire application is closed. So every time the button is clicked for export, a new excel application object keeps on running. How can I solve this?
The problem doesn't occur if two of the lines from the method below are not used. But I can't omit them as they are really needed. Check the * marked lines.
