Reading Object's Memory Address?
May 4, 2009
I'm trying to pass a business object from one WinForm to another WinForm for modification, and then repopulate the text boxes, etc. on the first form with the updated values.However, it seems that the object values set in the second form are not "sticking" when the code control returns to the first form.Is there a way to view the memory location of an object in VB.NET? I want to first make sure that the object variable on the second form is pointing to the same memory address as the object on the first form. Then I can take it from there.
In a separate VB project, I passed a simple object to a second form, modified the values, and re-displayed the object's values on the first form. It worked fine. In my real app, I'm passing an object that is a property of another object, which may be why it isn't working.SOLUTION: The problem was that I was using a DeepCopy() function that I found to simplify copying the properties of one object to another. Removing that function and manually setting the values to the passed object on the second form (ex. obj.property1

How is this possible?
For example, the following address: "00775BD7" shows

So how do I get the value?

I'm basically reading a memory address of Notepad using a module I got from a example... Then I'm displaying the text value of the memory address in a MsgBox. Everything goes well, I'm able to retrieve the text value and everything, but this happens.Lets say the value of the memory address is "Notepad". When the MsgBox comes up, it comes up a lot of times, displaying it like this...
1st MsgBox displays "N"
2nd MsgBox displays "No"
3rd "Not"
4th "Note"
and so on...
Here's my code, Module first, then Form1 code.

What's the best way to monitor a specific address in memory? And is it possible in theory to block a certain address being written to?

I am experimenting with more effective ways to generate forms. My experiments goes into the possibility to link strings, and other types, directly by their class reference and use it to update the original values without any strongly typed code.
I have been using GCHandle.AddrOfPinnedObject to get the memory address of the string, but it gives the the memory address of the string data, not the string class/reference that i need to change to allow me to use this approach.I am aware that strings are immutable and can not be changed (Actualy, you can, but its not recomended), but I do not want to change the actual strings, but change the reference to it (the string object).Is there some other way to get the address of a string object reference?

I need to make a program for my school (I`m the principal), that reads the text in the memory address of the program and write it down in a txt. I already have the address numbers. For more information, I use VS 2008.
I was trying to make one code to get the memory address. So, after I succeed this, I'll make the correct program.
The code I made(adapted from [URL] returning-0 ):

1. It only gets the first 4 bytes(is it?) of the memory address. I want it to get all of them.
2. I haven't discovered how to convert each byte(?) into a character. Is there a function for this?
3. When the program runs, after clicking ok on the MsgBox, it highlights the Next and debuggs:
Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt.

Lately I have been making a program (I guess you could call it a trainer), which would read the process memory to get the character's coordinates in a game. It later makes a simple map and show it in a separate windows. I built this program in VB.net, and it works surprisingly well. The only problem is the fact that the memory address where the coordinates are stored, changes every time I restart the game. Could someone please help me find a way, for the program to find the correct address by itself? If it helps, the game I am referring to is Minecraft.

Ive basically got 2 problems I need to solve.1) I am trying to determine if a certain process is running on the user's machine at the same time as my program.2) I am also then,if the process is running, trying to edit a specific memory addresses value. I have already found the memory addresses for the program, but how do I tell VB.Net to basically read the current value stored in that memory address, and then write a new value to that address

searching through memory at a given address range, and match a string of bytes specified i.e.
FindArrayOfBytes(Byval str as String, Byval range_start As Integer, Byval range_end as Integer) As Integer
The function should return the address start of where the array of bytes was found.

I have got some code that is working as i have edited the game.exe at a certain address, now i know the code can find the address, but I don't know how to make it stop searching for it if it isn't there.
here is the:
code:
So what I want to know, is how to stop this code, if the address doesn't exist.

This code should read the string "34,56,23,74,69" from a process's memory addresses (in this case notepad), right now it works but very slow and I think it even breaks somewhere. My problem is with the ReadProcessMemory function. I can't make it read an entire mbi.RegionSize into the buffer. I tried everything and now, it only reads 1 byte at a time until the mbi.RegionSize is finished then it checks if the text that was read contains the text I need to be found, then it goes to the next mbi.RegionSize. Now, even with notepad which is very small it still takes 10 seconds to find something and I intend to use it with a much bigger program, so it will take like forever. Another problem is that it only finds the string "34". If I put "34,5" it won't work.

I'm currently developing a sort of community program that logs game things to their profile.
Let say... you are playing BioShock PC, you passed a checkpoint... but when you passed checkpoint the game needs to trigger a notify to my program that tells that the gamer has passed that specific checkpoint.
Is it possible to read it from the game's memory or do i need to modify the game's executable?

A couple of months ago, before I started learning C++, I made an application in VB.net that reads memory from an external program. This could be anything, from notepad to windows media player etc. I have been trying to find a way to do the exact same thing in C++, but to my suprise I can't find anything straightforward on the subject. All google comes up with is threads on several forums, where the general response is "Windows doesn't allow you to read from memory you do not own". But if it works in VB.net, it can work in C++ too.

im trying to read "calculator" from calc.exe, now i found the mem adress where the value resides but i have a few problems
1) how many bytes should i read? im not just talking about calculator string but potentially any length string, i get different results with 4/8 bytes but same from 8 - 32 bytes
2) when i read i get a long value 27866486557179971 but how to convert that into a string
EDIT: ok by staring at the return value long enough i discovered that when i convert it to hex it spells "calc" backwards, same for all other strings, i could build a working converter based on that knowledge but now what bugs me is where is "ulator" or the rest of the string, the most i can get is always 4 letters
EDIT2: oh nm that, by moving memory adress a step further i get the next letter along with 3 previous ones and still backwards but i can work with that
ok so now next step would be making a search function for which i need to find out the range of memory to scan, anybody know how to do that?

I saw some 'offsets' such as: 0x006E71A0and some that were like, Game.dll+8E336CI'd more so think the 0x006E71A0 and the Game.dll+8E336C are among the same format, so i'd like to use that.I have also read somewhere(this could be wrong) that the memory addresses formats are different between VB, C#, and C++.

I am using these API functions for my project where I am handling 3 unmanaged DLLs of two external apps, basically all it does is to carry data back and forth between these external applications. The project needs a lot of use of pointers, passing pointers and reading/writing to memory so both applications can talk to each other.

I have a program that will download files from a company website given a list of links. The site requires authentication, and I do have code that will set the authentication cookie in the request header. I get the authentication cookie from a Perl script we have. What I would love to do is have my vb .net program get the authentication cookie based on my username and password. The perl script goes to the following link:
