I'm trying to write a VB.net utility that launches microsoft word and prints a document then closes the word window. My code works fine:
Dim MyProcess As New Process
MyProcess.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = True
MyProcess.StartInfo.Verb = "print"
[code]....
The problem is I cannot for the life of me figure out a way to tell Microsoft Word which printer to send the document to. It always goes to the default printer which wont work as I need to be able to programmatically determine the printer to use.

Using OpenFiledialog I can access a file. Is there a way that I can include a specific file in the code? This would allow me to access the file directly without the selection process and the application would always use that same file.

I have a telerik radgrid, like shown underneath [code]When I click one of the rows, it will display the password of the clicked row, like so:[code]That works fine. I am proceeding this way because the decryption of the password is a rather complicated and long process, so decrypting one password at a time is less time consuming, especially when the user doesn't need all the passwords.When I have the password displayed, I'd like to be able to select the password in the grid to copy it. Unfortunately, the radgrid will fire the "RowClick" item command once more, and the row gets de-selected. Therefore, I cannot copy the passwords. My question is: Is there a way to cancel the itemcommand of a radgrid under certain circumstances? I'd like to be able to disable the itemcommand event when the password is already decrypted.[code]

How do you code selection of text within a RichTextBox. I tried the following code and nothing happens.I would think this should select all text within the RichTextBox.
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Me.RichTextBox1.SelectAll()
End Sub
I would think this would select text from a start point to an end point.
Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
ss = Convert.ToInt16(TextBox1.Text)
se = Convert.ToInt16(TextBox1.Text)
Me.RichTextBox1.Select(ss, se)
End Sub

I am looking to include in my word processor a drop down font selection button, much like that in MSword, where it shows the installed fonts an allows the user to pick one. It is for a rtb, so I'm not sure if it's possible. If it isn't, could you guide me into coding a button with say the text 'Arial' to change the selected text in my rtb to arial. Also, which fonts are supported by rtbes?

I have a combobox on a form with the dropdownstyle set to drop down. Users can either salect a value from the list, or type in any value they wish. This all works fine. However, when one particular item in the list is selected I wish to set a different value. Unfortunately I don't appear to be able to set the combobox Text property from within any of the events that fire when the selected item is changed.

I have a few lines in an rtb. e.g:
1. radjesh
2. radjesh
3. radjesh
now I select the 3 lines and press a button. The output should be (for example):
<start>
<line>1. radjesh</line>
<line>2. radjesh</line>
<line>3. radjesh</line>
</start>

I'm trying to select all nodes with text that contain a certain word (ex: Company) because the word needs to have a register mark.
Here is part of the XHTML (this <p> is inside a table cell).
<p>
<strong>
<a style="color:#0E5A8B; text-decoration:none" target="_blank" href="http://www.trekk.com">
[Code]....
My goal is to just select the 2nd one, the <span> tag and am not sure why <p> tag is also being selected. If it selects <p>, but why wouldn't it also select the <strong> or <a>, and why not the <table> or <td> that contain the <p>?

I have a text box with some text inside it;
the text is long (say 100 chars);
the textbox can display about 20 chars.
The following code:
tbxTest.SelectionStart = 5
tbxTest.SelectionLength = 60
selects a part of the text and sets the cursor (blinking beam) at the and of the selection, in this case the first caracters of the selected text is out of the user sight because the textbox is too small to display the entire selection.
Is it possible to force the cursor to be at the beginning of the selection so the first part of the text is visible? (as if I had selected my text with the mouse dragging from the end back towards the beginning)

I'm working on a WYSIWYG Blog Editor, I'm having an issue with my text selection. I've added a couple of graphics to illustrate. My code is selecting the text and putting it back into the textbox, but it's adding extra text. I can't quite figure out how to get it to select the intended text and manipulate it correctly (make it Bold or Italic and so on,) and then show the text in the two windows (one is the Textbox and the other is a webtext box) correctly.
Below is my code and my 2 graphics.
Public Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
boldstart = "[ b ]" 'variables to hold formatting
boldend = "[ /b ]"
wboldstart = "<b>"
wboldend = "</b>"
clearrtf = ""
[CODE]............
Every thing works up to the point when I try to manipulate the text, it then puts more text in. I have been trying to find info on how to clear the text box and then re-insert the text with the text formatting. Side note in my graphics is a small graphic that is just there as a marker for me, it has no affect on the actual program.

I 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).

I want to do something along the lines of
txtCapital.Text = "Berlin" Or "Lisbon" Or "London" Or "Madrid"
but Visual Basic.Net says this is an invalid cast exception.Is there another way to create a random selection of for example a capital city from a list and then put into a text box?

I have a completely basic program here that I want to simply take text from a textbox and the selection from a combobox, and then run the following:
CODE:
Obviously WKID and PROCESS are the variables it will be pulling from the data that was put in by the user. That code was just in a simple batch file that I made with 2 variables. I am wanting to pull those 2 variables in when clicking the "kill process" button, it will run a command simliar to the above and end a process on a remote networked computer.

I have a program that needs to display a playlist of songs, for a band performing someplace, from a .txt file. The songs in the file are listed as follows:
All You Need is Love-Beatles
Rock
4.25
[code]....
The first line is the song's title and group name. The second is the songs genre. The third line is the songs length, 4.25 is 4 minutes and 25 seconds.upon clicking a button, I need to display a playlist from this .txt file based on the number of minutes the band has to play, minutes entered into a TextBox, and the songs genre, selected from a ComboBox. The songs cannot repeat and must be random.I have already coded the program to read the .txt file but have not clue where to start with the rest.

End Sub
But I can't seem to figure out how to loop through each line of text in the selection.
