Make A Program Run At Startup (For All The Users)

Jun 3, 2010

I'm making a really complex program that will run only on windows XP (it will synchronize more 100 computers just like a net cafe). How can i make the executable run at startup? For every user not only e.g. Administrator...

1. This is the path for the application startup: Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Startup) Does the same path exists but for all the users ?

2. Is this possible through modifying the registry ?

VS 2010 - Wide Search -program Allows Users To Insert Documents Along With A Bunch Of Their Attributes Into The Program

Apr 14, 2011

The program allows users to insert Documents along with a bunch of their attributes into the program. The documents are stored in a relational database. One of the required functionalities is allowing the user to look for such documents. The User normally search directly for the obvious attributes of the document, like a unique ID, or it's Title. The problem is that from the search parameters is not allways known which ones will the user fill. For example the user inserts the name and version of the deocument, another time the user enters part of the Title and the person that delivered the document, or might just enter the document number and nothing else. Some of the data might even be incomplete, like title, name of the person who created the document and so on. The idea from the person who designed the system (I'm only reimplementing it) was to allow easier searches for the user, and allowing the user to search for more parameters tod with the idea that "the more parameters, the more specific results", since the results are always group of documents instead of single documents.

Make Startup Form Invisible?

Oct 8, 2009

So I have a program that only has one form in it, this form is just an "About" window that appears when a specific context menu item is clicked from the system tray icon (NotifyIcon) that is on the form.

All I want to do is make it so that when the program is launched, the form is not displayed at all and just the system tray icon appears.

I have accomplished this by doing the following but just wondered if there is a better/easier way?

1. Set the Opacity of the form to 0 in the designer

2. Set the ShowInTaskBar property to False in the designer

3. Use a timer that is started in the form Load event to call Me.Hide after 1 second

Then when I want to show the form I just set the opacity back to full and call Me.Show
