There is a .Net executable (with a group of DLL's etc) that up to 100 people will be using simulatiously during the course of the day. Is it still acceptable/good practice to have all the users just have a shortcut to the network path for this executable? Or would it be better to copy the .exe, .dll's, etc locally to each users machine?

View 5 RepliesI have a voice program that can compare voices to stored voice files and identify people based on that. It's not the most accurate thing, since being sick or other weird things can make it fail, but it does work for the most part. I was wondering if there was a way to keep the voice recognition running during an unlock and wait for the person who locked it to come back. Upon giving the command and voice verification, if it passes, the computer is unlocked by my program. Is there anyway to do this in VB.NET?Summary: Can a program unlock a computer after it's locked?
View 4 RepliesThe coding that I have a problem with might make people think that I am creating some malware or something stupid. So the project I am doing is associated with iTunes. iTunes allows people to have one library. There is another way, but it is very confusing to some people, and very unreliable. So my project is that I will allow people to have multiple iTunes libraries on one computer. So the problem is this. In order to have an option to choose your library, I gotta make sure that iTunes is not running. So this is the script:
Code:
Private Sub CheckAndCloseiTunes()
retry:

View 15 RepliesI can't seem to work this out... I've got a program that references a network path. The problem is that the network files are not found when I run the program from various computers. If I have the user navigate to the network path directoy and then run the program it works perfectly.
The problem is that whenever the machine is restarted I run into the same problem and have to manually navigate to that path before the program will be able to find the files.
I then tried several checks to see if the directory exists but it's not working.

View 2 RepliesI'm building an application which require to use Directory.Exists on a network share UNC path. I know how to use that function, and how to implement it in my code, it's working perfecty locally.
Here my setup:
- VS2003
- .NET 1.1
- It's an Outlook Add-In
Here the code :
Dim realpath as string = "\myserverfolder$subfolder"
Impersonation.ImpersonateUser("admin", "DOMAIN", "adminpass")
Dim isDirExist As Boolean = Directory.Exists(realpath)
If isDirExist = False Then
Directory.CreateDirectory(realpath)
End If
Impersonation.undoImpersonation()
If I build this code, and register it in Outlook with my personnal account (admin), it's working fine, I receive true. If I build this same code, an register it in the Outlook of a normal employee (user only), it's always returning FALSE, no matter if the directory exist or not. The share is set to everyone allow, and I tried giving everyone access to the ACL, and it's the same result.

I am looking for a clean method that would allow me to update one folder on the network and for each computer to get updated when they run the program and the programs sees a later ver on that folder on the network. (Obviously I can do this inside the program itself since it won't allow being overwritten while opened.)

I'm a bit new to VB.NET and I have a database which I want to connect to an access backend stored on a network drive for multiple users. I can view the Database in the solution explorer and the directory defaults to the project folder. How can I specify the directory to pull from my network drive? VS has copied this datasource and imported it locally which is fine for testing, but i need the file accessible for multiple users. Is this something I do when publishing?

We were running Windows XP SP3 and IE6. The code is simple just a call to the explorer.exe with /root,\UNCPath. After installing IE 8 onto the machine this no longer works. Best I can tell the code is still working but now being executed in non interactive mode so nothing opens up. You can however see a new spawned explorer.exe running under the system account for each attempt at opening a UNC Path. Any ideas what IE8 could have done to cause this behavior?

I'm creating a database installer where I have some code to create database, tables, stored procedures, etc.I don't have problems when creating the database, tables and inserting required data. My problem is when my code gets to the stored procedures section.
Here is what I do:I have different text files (database.txt, tables.txt, insertdata.txt, storeprocedures.txt) where my sql syntax is located.I execute every process/text file using the following:
ExecuteSql("master", GetSql("database.txt")) ' Creating 1 database.
ExecuteSql("mynewdatabase", GetSql("tables.txt")) ' Creating 15 tables.
ExecuteSql("mynewdatabase", GetSql("insertdata.txt")) ' Inserting data to many tables.
ExecuteSql("mynewdatabase", GetSql("storeprocedures.txt")) ' Creating 6 stored procedures.
Here is part of the error:In exception handler: Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'PROCEDURE'. "This is the second stored procedure because the variables I get below belong to the second one"
Must declare the scalar variable "@intVariable1".
Must declare the scalar variable "@intVariable1".
Must declare the scalar variable "@intVariable1".

When trying to create 6 or even 2 stored procedures using the same file 'storeprocedures.txt' is not possible. If I leave just 1 it works but I really want to keep them together.

I have a form which displays related data from three different tables. There is a foreign key between the master table and the two related. Currently I have three stored procedures to return the data based of the return key value from a search becuause I am using DataAdapters to select and modified the recordsets. This works great, but I'm sure adds a lot of overhead. In VB 2008 with SQL 2008, is there a way I could use only one stored procedure to accomplish this?
