Is there any way to determine how my application was closed. i.e. task manager, vs any standard close method. Actually my app is a dll that is used in an exe, so I really need to know how the exe program was shut down. Basically I am trying to write to a debug text file if the user has to shut down with task manager.

I have my rpg, still, first time working on it n ages, and I want each user to be able to set their own personalized picture background for the game...
each character in the game has its own dedicated folder for each file that the character has relating to it...
what I want to know how to do, is to have my game copy the loaded/chosen background image to their respective characters data folder, and have the game reload/reset the games default background image, to the one piced by he player...I am having a hard time figuring out how to do this however...I've tried a lot of different things...and nothing is working yet...
here is my example code right now:

In class i saved my program in with load of other test programs for the same assignment and got everything mixed up i finally figured out what was what and loaded the program in Visual Basic. Now my program doesn't recognize one of my forms when i try to access the design view of it. I hit run for the hell of it and the program runs with errors of course but the form1 "the missing one" shows up with all the buttons etc and i can use it.
Heres the link to the files. [URL]

i have a application that i designed for an assignment which uses a DB (ACCESS) However when i publish the application it fails to load even though the application completes. I have managed to find that it is the database that is not copying over, how do i solve this (the db is located when debugging and is also in the project files)

I just want to shut down my computer, but seems like nothing works. I'm using Visual Basic 2008 with Windows 7.[code]...
The only thing that happens, is that the program looses focus, then several more instances of the program is created. Are there some particular restrictions in Windows 7 that prevents shutting down the computer?

I have a multi-threaded tray application. I basically need it to shut down. I do some loops to close down threads, and that does work well. However, if message boxes are open in the UI, this usually prevents shut down. I tried End and Environment.Exit. Thoughts?

I'm trying to do a little project with an embedded board and XP embedded OS to control a little machine. The board will have no monitor, so I need a little routine that when a key is pressed on the keyboard, it invokes a proper Windows shutdown.I want to have the letter "Z" trigger the action. I've found that the sequence I want to run is ultimately this
Code:
SHUTDOWN -s -t 01
I'll put the routine in the start folder so that it's always in the background waiting for "Z", but is there anything else that has to be done since the machine controller software will be the "active" program?

I've noticed that a few download management programs do this, like uTorrent for example, where you can set it to shut down the system when the download(s) complete and I would like to implement this in my app as well.Right now I'm usingProcess.Start("shutdown.exe", "-s -t 05")which works fine if the user is logged in, but my home computer has the screen saver set to lock the computer in which all my app does is exit but the system doesn't shut down like it does when it's logged in.

I work in IT in a firm that are rolling out a time management application on all PCs. In order to clock in/out a user must log into the application and click clock in/out. I want to build a very simple application that when a user goes to shut down or log out of their PC, a windows form will pop up asking them if they they want to clock out of the time management software (a reminder if they have forgotten to clock out and are heading home). On the form there will be two buttons, 'yes' and 'no'. If they click yes, the system shutdown or log off will be halted and the time management software application will open automatically. If they click no, the shutdown/logoff will proceed as normal. I just need to know what i need to do to get the system shutdown/logoff to stop until either button is pressed and to stop totally if the 'yes' button is pressed. I am able to get the Time Management software to run on a button click but just not able to halt the shutdown or logoff?

In uTorrent the system shuts down whether the user is logged in or the system is locked, how is that possible?Also I would like to know how to detect if the system is locked or not because if they are logged in I, like uTorrent, would like to prompt the user that the system is about to shut down and give them 30 seconds to cancel it.
In addition to
Process.Start("shutdown.exe", "-s -t 05")
I also know about

Everything works OK with my VB program except, all of a sudden now, whenever I attempt to brush across a text string with the cursor intending to hilite the string I get an error message saying "Microsoft Visual Basic 2010 Express has encountered a problem and needs to close."Where-upon VB shuts down and restarts.

I've recently started using visual basic express 2008 and am having problems with saving my project. Basically, the data sources keep dissapearing from the project when i have shut down my computer and come back to the project at a later time. This has happened to my project several times now and is getting quite irritating as i don't seem to beable to find a resolution to the issue.I could continue developing my application without having to re write the code constantly.

Could I load a program into a tab?
I have a program and have been trying to put it in to modules (instead of just one massive peice of code) and was thinking I could make some of it as "mini programs" and run them when needed.
1) Is that possable?
2) Is it a good idea? (the "mini programs" would not be needed to run the main program just used very rarely for changing setting etc)
