How To Attach To Running Processes
Jan 7, 2010
I have a program that instantiates Excel, programatically updates it, and then closes it. In some cases, when I look in the task manager/processes, I can still see 1 or more copies of Excel running.
1) Is there a way I can, after creating an object reference to Excel, identify the PID or some other unique identification?
2) Using that, is there a way, after I think I have told Excel to go away, to see if the PID (or whatever) is still active?
3) Given that I have a PID, can I get a new object reference and try to tell it to go away nicely
4) If it still won't go away, can I force an end process of the task?
5) Is there a library or routine available that will return the active processes so I can search to see if there are any copies of Excel still running?
6) using the approach in 5, can I also find out if the item associated with the PID is running just as a process and not as an application?

i'm making a new project something like a task manager. i could manage to get the names of all running processes
Imports System.Diagnostics
Public Class Form1
Dim proc As Process
[Code]...
it works. it gets process names (but without extentions) what i want to do now is to get the image path of each process. i think i will have to use a different control probably data grid view. can somebody tell me how to add items to datagridview instead of listbox? and how to get each process image path( to data grid view)?

I want to be able to cycle through the active processes on the system and find when my program starts? It has the name 'Calculate Distance' as the form1.vb text. There fore, I want to be able to close a splash screen when the form1 loads. This requires checking currently running processes. How do I do that in VB.NET 2005?

I have rently deployed a VB windows application. It uses ADO typed datasets and datagrids.
On a couple of machine, if the application is left opened for a while (about more than 30 minutes), it gives no response. In order to restart it, I need to end the process vie the Task manager.
How would I even begin to troubleshoot why it is "hanging up"?

I have created a program that when a user registers, it sends an email to that user, and three of my email addresses. The problem is that while it is sending, the window is un-usable and "does not respond" and the icon changes to the white box thing when you click on it. is there a way that i can run this process behind the program, so the window is still usable, but it still sends the emails?

I have a sub-procedure which I want to run a different process, depending on what is currently running. I thought the easiest way to do this was by using an ArrayList of each of the campaign details & adding an 'Inuse' field to check to see if the Inuse field is set to 0 or 1. The problem that I have is that when running the process it is all happening at once & the integer hasn't been changed before the next thread kicks in so my threads are running the same campaigns. I tried to avoid the problem by adding a Thread.Sleep(100) delay inbetween starting threads but this led to exactly the same problem.
Here's an example of what I am trying to do:
Imports System.Threading
Public Class Form1
Private Campaigns As New ArrayList
Private ProcessRunning As Boolean = False
Friend StopProcess As Boolean = False

here is what I'm trying to do (partly in pseudo code):
Public Sub KillProcess(ByRef strProcessToKill As String)
Dim proc() As Process = Process.GetProcesses
For i As Integer = 0 To proc.GetUpperBound(0)
If proc(i).ProcessName = strProcessToKill Then
proc(i).Kill()
End If
[Code]...
The killprocess part works fine. However, if I try a "For Each App As Process In Process.GetProcessesByName("chrome"") approach and have several chrome windows open then it will display the question 5 times if there are 5 chrome processes open.

I have created an asp.net form in vb.net that sends an activation email after it is filled out and I was wondering how to attach a file(s) to the activation email sent out after the form is submitted. The function I believe to use after the 'mail.body' portion is: [Code] The portion that is confusing me is what parts above need to be filled in with an actual value. Also, do I need to store the files in a location such as an FTP client or db (at the moment they are on my hard drive).

I installed 2010 and am trying to attach to VB 6.0 project that has some COM exposed calls. In 2008 I just used Tools, attach to process, selected the running VB 6.0 app, and it would hit the .Net breakpoints. Right now it appears to be running some other version of the .Net program. It must be picking up something registered other the my code open in developemnt.
Is there something else I need to do to attach for 2010 IDE?
I'm running the VB 6.0 app from IDE also.
