I can find out myself how to add a button to the Explorer context menu, but my main question is: How do programs receive commands at runtime? And can you do it in VB. NET? Oh, and no, I don't have any code because I have no idea where to start. So, I guess first I need to make my program a single-instance-application?

I am sure this can be done, as Visual Studio is basically built this way. What I want to do is simply make a class that my other workmates can use. But rather than have it in a code form, I want to build it (partially), and then my workmate can add it into their programs (sort of, like the add reference for the .NET stuff).

View 3 RepliesI created a file that has 10-20 songs in a file and i want when button1 is pressed to play all of these songs in order
View 4 RepliesI have got a button - lets call it button X. And a listbox, listbox Y.
when button X is pressed MediaPlayer Z - "Axwindowsmediaplayer" will play all the songs in Listbox Y.
the items in the listbox are all files on the user's computer.
In my VB.Net application, I am using Mediaplayer for playing songs. It is working fine with some songs. But some songs are not playing. I gave msdxm.ocx for COM componetes. I used breakpoint to see what is happening, I got the the error as "Error HRESULT E_FAIL has been returned from a call to a COM component.". I am using the following code,
AxMediaPlayer1.FileName = "D:Songsabc.mp3"
AxMediaPlayer1.Play()
I would like some simple codes that allow you to import songs into a listbox then at the application of a button it will sync all of the songs in the textbox onto a USB MP3 Player.

View 20 RepliesI have mp3 database (access). I want to filter table and show 100 most played songs. There is a field "PlayCount" which is increased every time the song is played. I know how to use TOP clause, but there is a problem when I want to sort results in descending order by "PlayCount" .here is the sql query:
SELECT TOP 100 * FROM Database ORDER BY PlayCount DESC this query returns 120 results. If I use "TOP 200" it will return 278 results. But everything works fine if I use ORDER BY Filename.
I am somewhat new to VB and I am currently working on a media player program. I used WMP to make a playlist with the names of all the songs in my library. Then I have my VB program open the library playlist and read all the music names into an array. This works perfectly until i get to a song title with a

I started with VB 6.0 back when i was 14, I was mostly into coding programs that interacted with other programs. Recently I installed VB.net 2005 pro i got from school, and i grabbed few source codes that teach show interaction, I feel so dumb, i dont remember anything lol. It be great if you guys can share some source codes and other stuff in this field. also other day i was in dream spark and i am able to get copy of VS.net 2010 ultimate edition, are there a lot of major changes, cause i got 2 thick book for VB.net 2005..

That part works fine but when you click the button to make it do anything it will get the variables that it need from the tags on the cells for each song but for some reason the one for the Album just disappears... I tried having it just show the value in a message box and it works fine. Just when I try to combine it with another variable then it wont show at all. Heres my code

View 3 RepliesI've spent the best part of the week learning about TCP/IP and sockets but it's really draining my enthusiasm for my project. The basics are simple enough and the MSDN examples are fine and I can put together a simple server/client easily now, but once I start getting into asynchronous connections, threading and all the other stuff, I'm getting bogged down and frustrated. I've followed a dozen tutorials and examples now and they're all too confusing and half of them simply don't work.
I think what's most frustrating is that I really don't wish to become an expert on sockets or TCP, which seems to be the advice on most forum replies. I really want to be getting on with my project which has ground to a halt since I started looking into this. Yes, I know the world isn't always that simple.
So, what I'm looking for is a 3rd party app or some working code that will let me set up a server and multiple clients. All I really want them to be able to do is to send strings to each other, without blocking the application. Really, that's it, just the ability to pass strings back and forth between server and client, preferably in as simple a format as possible - e.g SendMessage(Client,String).

I have a few questions regarding getting information from other programs.
For instance, once i launch a console application i want my other program to read it's output. If my build.exe reads whats printed in cmd.exe and then outputs it live on a textbox <--- How do i do that?/Is it possible? Im sure it is. And then i want to know how much % of CPU is used by the program and how much memory are used.
