I have a background worker which runs, at the start it stops a timer which has it's interval set to 500ms, at the end of the bgworker sub it starts it again. I've debugged and found out that the line that starts the timer up again (tTimer.Enabled=True) runs. However the timer does not resume. I'm don't know, but I'm thinking perhaps because I'm stopping and starting it on another thread it's not resuming properly or the sub it was attached to (via AddHandler) has been reset or something so it's running but not running the code in the sub it was attached to. If I never stop the timer in the code, it continues to run just fine, but I need it to stop at the start.

I am developing a Windows Service in VB2008 and am in the testing stage. What I have noticed is that if I Pause it while it is busy doing something and then resume it, the process generates an error. While I am debugging this I wanted to determine exactly what the difference is between Pausing/Resuming and Stopping/Starting a service.I searched, but most results simply told me how to Stop/Start/Pause and Resume a service, a hurdle that I jumped over many years ago. Does any one know of any resources that go into detail what happens when a service is stopped vs when it is paused?From some experimentation, it seems that if I do not place any code in the OnPause and OnContinue events the Pause/Resume commands have no effect.

I am working on a Windows Service application in VB.net 2008. The main objective of the application is to monitor starting and stopping of applications listed in a file. I build the service as system level by using
mManagementStartWatcher = New ManagementEventWatcher("Select * From Win32_ProcessStartTrace")
AddHandler mManagementStartWatcher.EventArrived, AddressOf

Since the coming of Windows7 at our office we have sometimes the issue that the print spool is crashing.Users don't have admin rights to restart the service so that leaves them only at restarting their computer as solution.Which costs alot of time... As we cannot find a final solution to this problem I've begin to write a small tool so they can restart it..I've only hard code a local admin account in the source for this operate for them..

I have a vb.net application which does some processing. This processing can take a while. The application doesn't respond until the processing has ended and then it handle all events (such as click on buttons) that the user has done during the processing. I'd like to add a "Stop" button so that the user can stop the processing at some point. How can I do that? Could threading the processing (which is done in a function of the application) be a possible solution?
I tried to add a button which change a boolean value and putting the code of the processing function inside a while statement based on that boolean value. However it doesn't work because the click event on the button is processed only after the end of the processing.

I have a function to pull data from a XML, and to report a specific number based on a value in one of the elements in the XML. Unfortuntately, I can't get any break points to work, so I've been debugging with a trace.he strange this is that when i take out the function itself it works like it should, otherwise the Service freezes when it gets to the function and never uses it. I'm calling the function in while loop which is also within a Try Statement, here's example of the code.
Public
Shared Function GetXNumber(ByVal
audit As Audit.API)

I'm sort of repeating the same steps. There's got to be a way to shorten it.I was able to shorten it before by making a generic function to create the radio buttons.This is the before the rewrite

I have a piece of software with two tabs, inside each tab there are buttons (the user can add the buttons when they want). when tab1 is full tab2 should start to fill. I currently know how many buttons fit on the screen so I just say something like if buttons > 150 then start to populate tab 2 The problem i have now though is if the resolution is changed then a different amount of buttons can be displayed. so if I put my screen to 1280x720 some buttons are left of. I was thinking of detecting the resolution and then using different cases for different resolutions but this seems very inefficient im wondering if there is a different way?

What I would like to do is to have four different buttons (e.g., buttonA, buttonB, buttonC and button D). I wanna give the following instruction to the people: press these buttons in the following order: first buttonA, then buttonB, then buttonC and last buttonD. If they obey this instruction then a picture will be displayed, for instance a happy face. All the other combinations will not activate this picture to be displayed, or in other words, there won't be any consequence. I would also like to save this data using windows note pad e.g., writeline (1, xxxxxx). Is there any chance I will make it?

Is there a way to stop other subs from running while in a separate sub.
for instance say your in the sub
CreateNumber()
and the subs are setup like
CreateNumber()
AddNumber()
DeleteNumber()
Is there a way to be in CreateNumber() and call a function to stop AddNumber from running after creaetNumber() is finished? i just want my program to sit there to wait for an event to happen.

I'm currently programming a music software which plays notes which are listed. as timer ticks, the notes change and so it plays a different *.wav file. The problem now is that the previous sounds stops when a new sound starts. i want them to overlap each other until each one has finished. Code: my.computer.audio.play("file.wav")

I've been trying to create a timer that waits for another timer to finish with its coding and, when it's finished, executes a series of code before stopping itself.
This isn't the code for the actual program I wanted to implement this self-stopping timer in, but it's simple and has the exact same problem:
Public Class Form1
Private Synchro As New Timer()
Private Sub MeLoad() Handles Me.Load
[Code].....
The idea here is that it's suppose to (using a timer) show the messagebox ONCE and ONLY once per button click. However, what seems to happen (despite the fact that I have 4 ways of trying to tell it to stop) is that the program creates multiple messageboxes until there are a total of about 49 messageboxes on the screen at the same time. I don't know if I'm using the wrong event (unlikely as Tick seems to be the only timer event) or there's a way of stopping the timer that I don't know.

I'm trying to figure out the code for the timer that would allow me to stop the timer after X number of runs through the code. Here's what I have so far:
im tmr_cnt As Integer
tmr_cnt = tmr_cnt + 1
If CInt(boxAns.Text) = CInt(lblnum1.Text) / CInt(lblnum2.Text) Then

I'm developing an interface for users that will allow them to enter data into a database without having to know SQL. Problem is, some one out there probably does.
How can I stop them from deleting/screwing with my data when they're typing entries within my text boxes?
For example, I don't want anyone to be able to type in DELETE * or any other kind of SQL statements in a text box to ruin the DBA's day.-Nothing to see. Move along.

Ok, so the PDF problem was traced back to when I would close the test build. When I would close my app via Me.Close the Adobe.exe was still an active process.
I have several forms that include multiple PDFs. I need to ensure that the Adobe.exe process is terminated during the exiting of my applications.
How is this accomplished or is there another way?

I know the title of this thread is a show stopper for a lot of us . But what I want to do is stop two services from running for a period of time then restart them. I know I can do this from the command prompt by using net stop servicename then restart with net start servicename. I need these two services stopped to do some work on the database. I do this manually right now and want to automate the process. I tried process.start with the command net stop but that did not work out. If I try the Process List I get the process running but not the services.

I have an application that is on a server running. The way I have it setup is I put it on the Windows Scheduler to run at certain times. We now need to run it constantly on the server. I change the code to put in a loop until I pause or stop it. One issue I have found is that I can kick it off but when I close out of my remote session the application stops.
How do I keep my application to keep running even after I sign out of RDP?

I was wondering how someone could stop a For loop in the middle of it, according to parameters. I have tried but cannot find a solution that works, I suppose an example of this would be if a loop were increasing a label by 1 from 0 to 100 and the user sets it to end at 57 or any number in between and when the loop reached the number to stop.
