Making A .NET Application The Only Program Which Can Run?
Oct 18, 2011
What would be the best way to make a Windows .NET application be the only program that can be used on a computer? I have come across timers or events to switch windows back to a window with matching text and some api32 calls to make a form top most.
Is it possible to make an application like the windows lock screen where nothing can be done except that what is on screen? I want to block users from doing other things and only let administrators get to the desktop.

I am making a program which generates a random number between 1 and 10 and when 7 appears it is suppose to tell you how many tries it took to get the number 7 and then end the application. This is the code I have used:
CODE:
This code only generates the number 7 and exits the application, each time i click the random button but i want it to show the other number it randomizes too for example 1 2 3 4 .. etc, if u dont understand, please try it, but im trying to say, when i clikc random it just says number 7 (does randomizing in background) and tells you how much tries it took but i want it to show the other number it randomized also and when 7 appears, then exit the program

I am making a exe application and i am using mysql as my database. So the thing is, when i change to a new computer, i need to change the file path for the database connection string to that computer.
like below:
Dim connectionString As String = "Data Source=----------SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=Flexlink;" & "Integrated Security=SSPI;"
i need to change the data source = --------------- SQLEXPRESS to the computer name that i am using for my project.
May i ask is there any method such that the user dont have to go in to the source code to change the computer's name like those normal installer?
Just install and the application will run according like any exe file that we buy.

I used Microsoft Visual Basic 2008 and i am having trouble making it to where i can make a screen that a video can be played in. I mean i know i have to code it to call if from a folder but i do not know how to set up the form so i can make my own program. My teacher said that there used to be a thing where you just put in on the from and it did it for you is there a special thing you have to download to do that or do you have to actually go through and code it yourself. I do not want to be given code i just want to know the best way of starting my project whether it is making a thing so that i can play the videos

I'm currently using MS Visual Studio 2008 Express Edition. My .NET Framework version is 3.5. I made an application in VS 2008 and it worked perfectly. However, when I ran it at my friend's place (who's got .NET Framework 1.1), it didn't run. Now, I know that the framework incompatibility is the issue.So, what I ask is, how do I code the application so as to make it run on Framework 1.1 as well while still using VS 2008?

I made the setup project for mt VB.NET Application, but when I take it to another computer for installation, the wizard does not show any window for specifying the path. It just asks to accept the license agreement and then starts installing/copying files. Later after installation and rebooting I see the shortcut but it does not start the program/application. It just goes to a folder.

I am making a program that is very simple, but I'm have problems with it. It runs like this:Theres a textbox and you enter in any amount you want.Next to that there are three radio buttons, deposit, check and service charge.If you enter in 100 in the transaction text box, and check the deposit radio button, and hit "Calculate" it will display 100 (in a total display box); hit calculate again, it will display 200, then 300, etc..Now lets say you keep 100 in the text box, but you check either "service charge" or "check" and hit calculate then it will MINUS the amount in your total display box. So for example if you had 300 in the total display box, and 100 in the transaction box and you checked "Service Charge" and hit calculate it would display 200 in the total display box, hit calculate again, and it shows 100.. etc..

I am making a program in vb.net (visual basic) that has two forms. I have one as a sort of "main" base which will be behind everything. Then I have another additional form which is suppose to go on top of the "main" form. Well I get this to work when I show both of the forms, but I want the smaller (additional) form to be centered onto the main form. If you want an easier sense of it, its a small box in a big box. (all centered and aligned). Does anyone know how to do this?

I have an exe with certain variables that need to be changed for each "make" of the program so that each one is customised, but what I need is to create a program that can edit these variables and generate a new exe, or something that can take the source files from my exe and edit the variables then recompile it. Now I don't want to hear "why not just do them by hand", if I wanted that I wouldn't be asking how to do this, I just need this because I need to create 1000's of these custom exes, and I figured that if I could make a program that can do this (edit the variables and compile new exe) then that would make it easy on me since the variables I need to change go in an order from 1 - 1000. I also need it to work on a regular pc not one with all the special VB plugins and stuff, it needs to be able to work on a fresh install of win xp.

I would like the password to be masked as you type it in "*****" for example and If possible I would like to encrypt the password with md5. Can someone let me know how to/give me the code to do it.
This is my current login system:

how do i make i VB .net application/tool (any sort of) like a professional one, for eg. if my tool is doing some task when i click a button which takes say 1-2 mins. , then during that phase my app should not look like it's hung (plain white window) if you know what i mean . All i'm asking is the logic for keeping my front end viewable & refreshed (possibly wit ha progressbar) while something carried out in background which takes couple of mins.

I have searched lots of way to make a 30 day trial limit of my program. They say "Use -Settings- in visual basic application for your variables" to save the information about user (like : registered or not registered or when the program expire). (You can see the 'Settings' when you double-click on "my project" in "solution explorer") Does the data which we use with "settings" saved in our program or somewhere in the computer?

I am trying to make a basic "paint" like form for one of my programs.I would like it to be like a function, where I put the input in, the user changes it, and when the user is done, it returns the changed picture.I know how to draw the picture and then draw lines, dots, whatever where the user clicks, but I don't know how to do some of the features like: text, color picker, zoom, erase, select (copy and pasting parts of the image) , and fill. I also don't really want to have a color picker dialog open ever time that the user wants to change color.

I am making a calculator-like program, and would like to make it so that it is always the front-most form, even when another program (like Firefox) is clicked. While Firefox is the active form, my form is still up. Basically, I'd like to make the form like the on-screen keyboard; it never really minimizes unless you specifically tell it to.
