I'm making an appication that needs to maximize the window of another application. In Spy++, the way it works is -> "Working Model - Untitled1" -> "MDICloient" -> "Untitled1"This is what the tree view looks like.I need to maximize Untitled1, but I'm not sure how. I tried findwindow "Working Model - Untitled1" and then used get and setwindowplacment for it, and it worked. Then I used findwindowex on "Untitled1" but it did not maximize. What am I doing wrong here? I'm sure mdi windows can be maximized; the "Untitled1" window itself has the 3 buttons (- + X) on the caption bar.
View 1 RepliesI know the old command of Shell ("C:/program.exe"), however.. when I do this, it brings the application minimized from my program.
A. How do I get the shelled application to gain focus and maximize?
B. Is there a way to open an application within a vb form? Such as.. playing solitaire in a vb program?
I have an application right now that starts a process, then opens a file associated with that process (system.diagnostics.process.start("WM.exe")), however, the way they save, there is a window within a window. It's like in photoshop cs3 when you have many windows within the big window of the application. Right now I use an api call to findwindow which is the application itself, but within that I need to find the subwindow, of which I know the apptitle, and then I need to set its windowstate to maximized. Does anyone know how this can be done? I think there's a way to hook a handle, but how does one also maximize?

View 3 RepliesI would like to add some scripting support to my .NET-application (I usually code in VB.NET). Since VisualStudio 2008 won't let me use VSA to get scripting support, and the Windows ScriptControl crashes in 64-bit mode, I have been looking for an alternative solution to my problem.I would really like to be able to code the scripts in VBScript or VB.NET, because of the simple syntax.Would it be possible to implement some kind of sandbox inside my application to make it run a VB.NET application inside itself? Or is there any simpler way of getting scripting support?

View 2 RepliesI was trying to figure out the cause for this . What i understand is :
1. .net starts splash screen in different thread.
2. Someway when main form load event is finished or about to finish , then splash screen is disposed.
Now in this case , i think dispose method of the splash screen gets fired from the main form , even when splash screen initialization is not finished yet.
BTW this issue occurs in any MS office program when the VB.Net (or even VBA) is processing information.Example: In Excel, a worksheet is displayed on the screen. I start either, a VB.Net or VBA procedure and within 30 seconds the Excel worksheet (previously displayed) blanks out. In both VB.Net and VBA,ScreenUpdating = False. My expectation is that the previously displayed screen would stay static as if I left my desk to get a cup of coffee; came back and the same ole Excel worksheet was still there?Of course, setting VBA Screen Updating = False accomplishes two goals: 1) speeds up processing and 2) saves the user from seeing unnecessary "garbage-processing" steps.Why does VBA or VB.Net ScreenUpdating = False not freeze the screen at the time of its invoking?
