View 2 RepliesSo I have my form, I add one combobox (combobox1) and a button that says "Launch..."Button 1's
Process.Start(ComboBox1.SelectedItem)
When you select a program from the combobox (combobox1) and click launch, it launches that program, for example, cmd.exe (command prompt) when I click the button, it launches the command prompt, but if I select a game (for example chess.exe, for vista), it says it can't find the file, this is because the search for the file is only: WindowsSystem32, how can I change that? OR, how can I add a reference that searches the WHOLE Disk, not just WindowsSystem32?

I am using VB 2005. I am trying to open an external program, make it invisible, and then control it. It is fine if the external program shows up in the Windows Task Manager, but I don't want anything showing up in the Windows taskbar. I already know how to open the program I want to use. For that I am using:
Code:
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("C:Program FilesSomeProgram.exe")

View 7 Repliesi am trying to get some text form an external program. Currently i am using this code:
Dim lngHWND As Long
Dim lngHWNDF As Long
Dim lngID As Long

I am getting values for both the lngHWND, lngHWNDF and the lngChild. However, they are only values (numbers) and not the text itself.

What I'm wanting to do is gonna sound pretty strange. I play a game called Wonderland Online. Usually while playing, I will have between 3-4 instances of the game going at the same time, each instance running a different character. Also, I will have open another program that I wrote that helps me figure out what I need to manufacture a certain item in the game. The running game is an 800x600 window, and I have all 5 of these windows open at once, where I am constantly moving things around, minimizing and maximizing.I want to create a app that would basically be a frame for the game. Creating the frame would not be hard, but this is the first time I have tried to get an external EXE to basically run inside of my program. Is this even possible? And if so, I would imagine I could run multiple EXEs and flip between them inside my frame. I could integrate my manufacturing program into the frame, as well as control which instance of the game is visible inside the frame.

View 2 Replies I'm trying to write a vb.net application that works with a 3rd party application called FuzzyTech. Unfortionalty FuzzyTech is quite old so the only way I can interact with it is buy using DDE. FuzzyTech acts as a DDE server. After a bit of research I found a library called NDde which enables me to use DDE. I understand that vb.net does not natively supprt it as it is an old technology.
Now fuzzyTech seems to only respond to the DDE connect and pokes when in debug mode. The only way I can find to get the program in to debug mode is from the menu bar (Debug > Interactive). So I have written an application that runs fuzzyTech, grabs the window and then accesses the menu to put it in to debug mode. My code can then use DDE. I have all of this working ok (although it does feel like a bit of a hack). The problem is I don't want users to be able to see this happening.
I want fuzzyTech to be hidden.After more research I found I could hide the window on startup by using fuzzypProcess.StartInfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden. However when I do this my code to grab the window and send the menu commands then fails. I think this is because the window title becomes blank when hidden.So I need to know a way of controlling the program after it is hidden or hiding it after it is in debug mode. This is where I am stuck. I'm very new to programming and this has got me completely stumped.
Here is some of the code I am using:
Private fuzzypProcess As Process = New Process()
Private Sub LoadFuzzyTech()
Try
fuzzypProcess.StartInfo.FileName = projectPath & projectTitle & ".ftl"

I am working in windows forms with Vb.NET 2008. I am trying to read text in from an external program. So far I have been able to read text in from a standard text box or button, however I am trying to read data in from an external data grid.
When I try to use the following I get no information about the grid
ChildHandle = FindWindowEx(ParentHandle, IntPtr.Zero, "classnameofexternaldatagrid", Nothing)
Dim Hndl As IntPtr = Marshal.AllocHGlobal(2000)
NumText = SendMessage(ChildHandle, WM_GETTEXT, 2000, Hndl)
Text = Marshal.PtrToStringUni(Hndl)
Usually if it is a standard text box I will get the text data with no problem, but it is a standard data grid and there are no further sub handles to try and read from. If WM_GETTEXT wont read information from an external data grid then how would I read in the data?

View 1 RepliesThe VB.Net program in question creates several files, adds them into a zip file (using DotNetZip), and saves the zip file into a given directory (which the user chooses). This comes out just fine. But when I use it to save directly to my USB flash drive, I can't eject the drive without shutting down the program first.I've tried disposing the zip object (from the DotNetZip library), doesn't work. I also tried setting FileIO.FileSystem.CurrentDirectory to somewhere else on the machine, still no.

I know how to check for the version information from inside a VB2005 application:
Dim version as String= String.Format("Version {0}", My.Application.Info.Version.ToString)
That works fine. But let's say I have two applications, A and B. App A wants to find out what app B's version is. Is there a way to do that?
