I am using sub main and no application framework. This gets rid of the single instance option for the program. I want to be able to have my app handle mailto but it needs to be single instance.
I have:
Public Sub Main(ByVal cmdArgs() As String)
Dim tempProcess As Process
[code].....
I understand running the command shell as a process, How would i run multiple arguments in that one process? For example, here's a process to do a netstat.[code]How would I do that with the following commands? I'd like to click one button and have these all run one after the other.[code]

View 9 RepliesI 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!

View 9 RepliesI have a console application and I have figured out how to type in the command window with Console.WriteLine() but i need to run a command (ex. net user) then wait for a response and type another command, for some reason I cant figure out how to type the command and automatically press enter without closing the window. I tried Console.WriteLine("net user") but all it does is write "net user" in the command window so I used My.Computer.Keyboard.SendKeys("{ENTER}", True) after Console.Writeline and it just wrote "net user" then exited the window. Is there any way to run a command through a console application? if so how would i do this?

I have a pretty simple question, I have a form with a text box and was hoping if it would be possible to get my program to run a command and to use value in the textbox in the command? and if possible then to pipe the output to a text file

ping 192.168.1.1 >d: est.txt

View 1 RepliesDim movie As String = TextBox1.Text
Dim subtitle As String = TextBox2.Text
Dim box As New Process
box.StartInfo.FileName = "MP4Box.exe"
[code].....
When i click a button this code is executed. But it wont execute the command "MP4Box.exe -ttxt " + """" + subtitle + """" Why?
i have been looking everywhere for the method used when you click the [X] Button so like that i can run some commands on form exit. I found Form_Unload method replacing Form with the name of my form and no luck. I'm sure there has been some talk on the subject but searching forum shows nothing that seems to work.

View 2 RepliesWill the commands I send to a Process.Start() be obeyed from within the IDE? [code]This doesn't work in the IDE, just gives me a blank window with the full string as the window name, but I'd like to fire up ffmpeg from within the app, wondering if it's an IDE thing or my code. I know some things in Flash work differently in the IDE than the "real" thing, not sure if VS does it too.
View 1 RepliesI 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.
how to run a process as a child process?

View 8 Replieswe have an old vb6 application (let's call it app-vb6) that basically handles database searches. now i created a new .net application (app-dotnet) that can use the database information to do something else.
what i want to do is to be able to run app-dotnet using information obtained from app-vb6 (which would send something like a command line with a few parameters). but i don't know how to make only one single instance of the app-dotnet to refresh information every time app-vb6 calls it. this link [URL].. seems to have the answer but i could not follow it since it is VC.

View 4 RepliesI 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.
