Opening Exchange Management Shell With VB?
Oct 23, 2009
Taking on a project that is larger than my knowledge of VB, I have an personal project in VB that uses command prompt to create, remove and modify AD accounts. My company has updated to Exchange 2007 and I have lost some of my functionality modifying mailboxes. I know alot of cmd commands work in shell, but I want to convert the entire thing to work for Exchange Management Shell.
My very first problem is getting my VB app to open shell and not cmd.
Current code example:
Dim strCmd = "cmd /C dsadd user " & Chr(34) & "cn=" & strUserName -Continues with location, groups, properties of the account
Shell(strCmd, AppWinStyle.NormalFocus)
Can I get my app to open Exchange Management Shell and possiby how can I change my code to work more for shell?

Is there any way i can run a Quest AD management shell command (not a plain powershell command) from Vb 2005 ? i mean do i need to register a snap-in within vb or register a dll or something ?for eg. i need to create a simple script to add multiple users to multiple groups then i can quickly design the front end in VB with 1 textbox for users & 1 for groups & then in background can i run a quest ad management shell command to actually add the groups (using add-qadgroupmember in this case)

I want to send messages withing a windows 7 LAN using VB.NET code. The problem is that the msg.exe executes commands in admin mode only. Here is the code. Shell("cmd.exe /k runas /user:farook-pcadministrator msg.exe") 'Here i'm prompted for a password. Shell("cmd.exe /k msg.exe", 1) I use the /k switch to see what's going on in the shell. /c is the silent switch. I do not wish to use runas neither do I wish to change privilages in msg.exe

I'm going to attempt to make a shell replacement for the Windows default shell: explorer.exe. I'm not sure if its possible using Vb.Net, but I can't seem why not. My end goal is to use a custom made shell for a Windows Preinstallation Environment instead of the default command prompt. I plan to use a 3rd party program to compile the program with the .NET Framework. Otherwise, it wouldn't work because Windows PE does not support the .NET Framework.

I am making a program that edits my website with the input that I put in. But, it is requiring multiple forms (obviousily), but I don't know how to make it close the one I am in while opening the other. For example: I have a form that opens first that requires a Username and Password, so nobody can obviousily use it without knowing them. When I submit the correct username and password and go on with the editing, I need the login form to close. I do not know the coding for this part. Is it:

I have 2 applications which we can call for example Client/Server.
I would like to exchange data between these applications but basically don't know which is the best route.
I have managed to speak to both applications using text files, but there must be a better way of doing this.

I need to convert a VB6 application into VB.Net Windows application. The program pulls data from MS Exchange (UserID, firstname, lastname, etc - not the emails themselves) and places it in a .txt file. The code has been converted, but the program does not work. When the application is run, the .txt file is created, but is blank and I get a pop-up that shows the following, "trying to access email in outlook do you want to allow this?". The popup box is gone in an instant and when I try to click on yes, it does nothing. I always have to end the program as it is non-responsive.

Using .NET (VB or C#), how can I add an e-mail alias to a user in Active Directory? I have written code to change the format of our usernames from "first_last" to "first.last.country" and I need to update the e-mail addresses as well. Our solution is to add an alias e-mail to the users in exchange, but I don't know how I can do this using .NET.

I have a project on VS 2005 which was running fine with exchange 2003, now the customer migrated to 2010 and my app. is failing when tries to create mailbox. My app. is console based and its running on windows 2003 and 2.0 .net framework. Exchange 2010 is running on a W2K8 and 3.5 framework. I guess a good option would be to develop a webservice (with VS 2010 for example) but not sure if EWS is able create mailboxes.

Apologies if this is in the wrong sub-forum. My organization has a custom application for creating and managing AD users and exchange mailboxes. Under exchange 2003 this worked perfectly. Earlier this year we implemented exchange 2007. Some alterations were made to the code to keep it running - and successfully creating mailboxes. This worked up until we removed the last exchange 2003 server.

I have to set our support email to send an out of office reply between 6pm and 8am every day and then for the entire weekend. I come to find out exchange does not support this. Is it possible to write a "service" that I can load up on a machine that monitor the support email then send an auto reply if it is between 6pm and 8am? Basically it would just be a lite weight email client that only does anything outside of business hours.

We use VB2005, Along with Powershell to manage our exchange infrastructure. VB.Net codes have been compiled to support MIIS2003 Operations. One of the operations require the functions in VB.net to write an output into .csv file. This file receives jibberish characters as input after the functions are executed.

I get the same error if I change the password to something incorrect so I'm wondering if the NetworkCredentials are being ignored? I've seen articles where teh IP address of the server must be trusted by the SMTP server or it won't relay the mail but I thought I was doing the same as an email client such as Outlook with the code above: that can be used from any PC on the network without having to specify its IP address on the SMTP server.
