I have an application that I have written in VB.net. I want to be able to pipe some parameters to it at launch time (e.g. run MyApp.exe /p parameters). In the MyApp code, how can I read the parameters which have been piped?

I'm using Jmchillney's formless tray application and I want to pass some parameters into it using some other application I have. Then I want the formless tray application to do some work with these inputs. How can I pass into an executable parameters from another executable? I want to send some parameters from Application A to Application B. If app B doesn't exist I want it result in an error message the app A to display an error message. If app B does exist, it will do some work with the parameters and return a result back to app A and that's it.

View 1 RepliesIs the Querystring present in the Url once the page has loaded? If so you should be able to easily parse it to get the values.The WebBrowser control has 2 events that you might want to look at
Navigated - occures when the control has navigated to a new document and has begun loading it or DocumentCompleted - which occurs once the document has finished loading.
I have a program that outputs a file. I want the user to be able to just double-click the output file and launch the program, just like Word and Excel. In Word for instance, one doesn't necessarily have to open WORD then click on File--> Open and locate another Word doc. He can just go to the folder and open the Word doc. I want to implement the exact scenario in my program.
So far I have tried creating TextFile and added it to the Resources. On FormLoading, I simply I stream-read the Resouce file, but I can't write to the Resource on FormClosing, since the Resource is ReadOnly. Also, the Resource is built & compiled so I suppose you can't add anything to it at run time.How you lunch an output file without launching the Executable program that created it?
I have an executable that I was able to get working on all XP machines by registering all the .dll's associated with it.On Vista, however, I go through the exact same registration process but right when I open the executable it goes to a "WindowsApplication1 has stopped working" dialog. I registered the DLLs in the SysWOW64 folder. I also ran Dependency Walker which came up with IEFrame.dll as flagged, don't know if that is relevant though.
View 6 RepliesI Actually want to provide a new service which requires creating executables on the fly from executables generated in vb.net. For example lets say I have a form with a textbox and in that textbox we pass an argument which is for example the serial of the product, then we have a button which once clicked will generate an executable on the fly which has also a textbox requiring that serial to run? That was only an example but the main thing is how to generate that exe on the fly.

I should be able to get result back as long as there's a match in the parameters. If I use Function Contains (q.FirstName & " " & q.LastName).Contains(employeeName), I will not get any result back if employeeName is "John Clark" Function Contains looks only for next words from left to right. It doesn't match a single word at a time. So that's why I used this in the Linq to SQL:

View 3 RepliesI have written a very simple menu that I intend to burn to a cd. I want the menu to be able to run executable files from the cd. The problem is everyone's cd drive has a different letter, is there any way that the program can take it's own location and then find the executable by adding where it is on the disc to that? Or is there another way?
View 5 RepliesMy problem is simple I have my application which was perfectly executing under framework 2.0, but recently I upgraded my code to add few lines.
ServicePointManager.DnsRefreshTimeout = 500
ServicePointManager.DefaultConnectionLimit = 100
ServicePointManager.EnableDnsRoundRobin = False
ServicePointManager.MaxServicePointIdleTime = 1000
ServicePointManager.SetTcpKeepAlive(False, 500, 500)
Now when I comment these, the application is executed flawlessly, but when included program requires Framework 2.0 SP2 upgrade, I searched MSDN for this but looks like this is available from Framework 1.1
I dont want my users to upgrage to SP2 for such minor things but cant also remove this from my code, Is there an alternate to achieve similar ServicePointManager settings without a Framework Upgrade?

Firstly I'm not a programmer and do not pretend to be one. I just enjoy killing some spare time I've been usining Visual Basic (started with VS2005 and now onto VS2010) to develop a program. Up until now I've been happy to plod along running the progam from the development environment. However, I recently was asked by an colleague if they could have a copy of the program to use.Therefore I opted to create an executable file for him to use. The problem is that whislt the executable file runs fine on my machine (Win 7) where VS2010 is installed, it does not deploy correctly on his machine (XP pro). Following is the message that I get:See the end of this message for details on invoking just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

The code below is real code I have rewritten many times but to no avail. If I leave out the part where I convert the bytes to string and just copy the binary and create a new exe with the binary the program works. But the whole concept of string converting back to valid binary has me stumped? This is Visual Basic 2008 code:

View 6 RepliesI'm trying to make a program that has command buttons, each running a different file. I have added some files so far, but I encountered a problem with a couple of them.
For example, I want to run Zuma's Revenge! right from the program, but it is not working. If I run the game from outside the program, it runs perfectly, but when I try running it from the program, it keeps saying "Zumas Revenge! - Adventure has stopped working."
What really confused me, is that the game is running normally if I run it from its folder or by using the shortcut, while from the program it isn't.I'm using Windows 7, with Visual Basic 2010 Express.
'Here's the code I'm using:
Private Sub Zumas_Revenge_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Zumas_Revenge.Click
Process.Start(My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath & "umas Revenge! - AdventureumasRevengeAdventure.exe")
