Does anybody know how I can prevent others from referencing and using my VB.NET dlls?Because when I create a dll then I can easily reference it to my project and use the code in it. So my main concern is that when I distribute my application others can use these dlls.

I have a textbox to which text is continuously appended (every second new status data at the end).I would like to act it as follows:- When the cursor is positioned at the end: Stay at the end, scroll the textbox (text disappearing at the top).- When the cursor is positioned somewhere else (not at the end): Stay exactly there, don't move the cursor, don't scroll, don't change the top line of the textbox.This seems to be surprisingly difficult (tried quite several ways).This is how far i came:
Private Sub addToTextBox(ByVal daStrg As String)
Dim posAtEnd As Boolean, selPos As Long, selLng As Long
If myTextBoxForm.txBox.SelectionStart = myTextBoxForm.txBox.TextLength Then

You developing a application named "DemoSoft" which is going to be a shareware or Premium, you use different DLL's in this project and some DLL's are owned by you, they are very useful and valuable, you are selling this software and are charging the customer for what the software does but since this software uses one of your Valuable DLL, actually few functions from it you have to deploy it and cannot additionally charge for the whole dll. since that would be unwize.now i want to ask what can you do so that This DLL in "DemoSoft" cannot be exploited, meaning end user could use my software but if some thief tries to use my supplied DLL in one of his own app he is unable to do it, in simple terms DLL should work only and only with DemoSoft.
View 5 RepliesHow can you detect when the registry is changed? Furthermore, how can you prevent changes to the system registry? I want to create a security tool, but can't seem to find this anywhere.This is in vb.net.I know the registry is stored as files on your computer somewhere, but I have no clue where it is stored, though I could probably use a FileSystemWatcher component to check it.Then, for prevention, would simply duplicating the registry files and rolling back the changes work?
View 1 RepliesWe know a tolower function will turn all A to a How to turn all à to a.The purpose is I am creating ids for databases and id need to be unique. Sometimes the same stores are written as à in one place and as a on other places. This will create duplicate id problem.So I need a function that will turn all à and all of it's variation into a. The same way ě should become e.
Basically I would use utf8_unicode collation on my databases. Letters that count as the same letter under that collation should map to the same character under this function.I need to make sure that all other east asian characers are not affected in anyway.

Me.StartPosition = FormStartPosition.WindowsDefaultLocation
Me.Size = InitialSize
Me.MaximizeBox = False

I have a small problem with my application. When the system starts up, the program starts with it, but runs hidden (registry key with paremeter). The program also has a GUI.I want it so that when the user clicks the desktop icon, it does not start a second instance of the executable, but instead reveals the currently running background process. Is that possible?i.e. when the application is started with the "-startup" paremeter, it loads a hidden form2, and closes form1. When the desktop icon is clicked, it loads form1, while form2 remains hidden.

View 1 RepliesI've got this little 'Sticky Notes' type of application and the form I have is a borderless, taskbarless form and for Windows 2000 compatability I'm using VS 2008 and targeting the 2.0 framework. One of the hurdles I have is that in XP, Vista & 7 when you click the Show Desktop button all of my note's windows get minimized and without a taskbar icon, it's not easy to get them back (at least not for a normal user) & I'm looking for a way to either right after the windows minimize I just have them all show again or if I can skip the minimizing message in the wndproc altogether

We have 2 apps that we display at once for data entry. 1 taking up the left side of the screen, and 1 taking up the right side.
1 of those apps is the data entry application. The other app is for viewing scanned info. But they can't talk to each other directly.
So I'm creating a tool that runs in the background to intercept certain keys.
I want to be able to capture keys such of Ctrl + Home, Ctrl + Page Up, etc from the data entry application, and send it to the scanned image to rotate it or zoom, etc.
I believe I can do most of it, except 1 part.
Right now if I did Ctrl + PageUp, it will send the key press to both apps. How do I prevent a keypress from the originating application?
