I was wondering if its possible to have a txt file in your resource's on your program that contains a class..[code]Can i somehow call and run this class from my main form? But it would still just be in a text file in my.resources.I was thinking maybe i would have to have it read the file then use CodeDOM and run that..

So What Im thinking of is this but not sure how to do it I can add the files to My.Resources but I don't know how to run it like .exe files or some other files
So Im going to make a TabControl and have like 5 or 10 Tabs On each Tab like lets say Programs, I will put labels of the program name. I click it and that program will run ( the program will be inside the main application)

I want to know how to use the resource files with code behind to achieve this?
or is there any other way to do this, other than using resource files?
I'm maintaining a WinForms application which was not written using any development patters conducive to localizing the classes in the project which were not directly associated with forms, or the code-behind partials of the forms.Thus, there is MessageBox() code with English text in it in almost every code file. I'd like to find a tool which will "scrape" those strings from the code, insert the strings in a resource file, and substitute a call to the resource with the substituted string in a comment.

MSDN: "If the resource value is zero or greater, the number becomes the index of the string in the binary file. If the number is negative, it becomes a resource ID."How can I find out either of these numbers for my resources that only have names in VB? I also need the ID/index for the exe's icon.

View 1 RepliesIs it possible to have code running in the background and still be able to use other parts of the program (i.e. firing other events).For example I have a instant messaging chat in my program and when the user has a new message then the display flashes from green to red as seen below

But I still want to be able to continue using the other functions in my program despite having this code running in the background (which highlights to the user that he has a new instant message by changing the display background colour)How can I overcome this?
I have been working on them and adding to them for several months. Out of nowhere, one of the subs in my project is not recognizing updated code. I had a for loop in there that was acting funny so I changed something and noticed no difference. I messed with it for a while and decided to just replace everything in that sub with a simple msgbox and it still tries to run the code that was previously there. I have built the solution, rebuilt it, cleaned it, closed and reopened it, removed the bin and obj folders and restarted my computer several times. This is not a server program or anything dealing with IIS or anything like that.

View 2 RepliesI have an application that checks the available disk space on the host machine and, if the free space is less than some constant, calls a batch which e-mails people who should be notified about such things using sendemail.exe.The VB code works properly, calling the .bat exactly as it's supposed to, and the .bat (when run independantly) works properly, sending of a lovely e-mail.But, when I put them together, the batch file reports that "'sendemail' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.".I'm well aware of how the PATH variable works and have been sure that the path to the .bat is within PATH (hence why it works when I just run it from the command prompt). I can only assume that, somehow, PATH does not apply to processes run from VB.NET for some reason.

I am trying to fire off an FTP of files. I have broken down the code to the barest minimum. I have used the Shell Command with success before but the solution is now evading me.
Sub Main()
Dim strGetFileCommand As String
strGetFileCommand = ("c:\Windows\System32\FTP.exe -i -n -s:getcash.scr 10.113.1.7>113Log.txt")
Shell ("cmd /c" & strGetFileCommand)
End Sub
I can run the command from the c:> prompt at the command line so I know that it is correctly formed.

View 3 RepliesI am an end user of a VB based program and our windows 95 based machines are dying of old age. Before getting my boss to agree to my trying out a newer machine I would like to know if there is any chance of getting this program to run.
I know that I need to be able to drive 3 serial (485 / 422/ 232) ports one of which is on an ISA bus and the other 2 are located internally on the motherboard. Another factor in trying to do this is the drivers are missing for the 485 card and I hoped
to be able to locate newer drivers easier.I think the VB code was created under VB3, but we do not have the expertise / tools to be able to disassemble the .exe file.

I have a Window Forms application (using clickonce installation, running on a terminal server) that occasionaly ends up with a thread that appears to be running in a tight loop. The user doesn't know this happens as the app continues to run as expected. Also I have determined that I can kill the problem thread without any apparent affect on the app.
I can use Process Explorer to find the instance of an app with the problem and can isolate the thread with the problem but haven't found any way to look into the thread to find anything that would help me determine what is causing the problem. Does anyone know of a way to some additional information about a thread, like maybe strings, that would help me zero in on the issue?

View 5 RepliesWe have a purchased application written in Visual Studio 2005 that uses tab controls for displaying information. One of the tabs is for reporting and I am trying to run some code to enable and disable a Validate button. It has a proprietary report component (LxReportView1) that is initially disabled. As user enters information, the Validate button is used to check for required fields. After data entry entries have been validated, user click Validate one last time and record gets flagged as validated and report component (LxReportView1) gets enabled for use. Ideally, whenever this Report tab is clicked, it will run my code EACH TIME.[code]Works fine when user's first action is to bring up a record that has already been validated. So when user clicks on Report tab, report component LxReportView1 has been enabled for use and the Validate button has been disable just as designed. Problem is that given a list of records, if user selects a record that has NOT been validated yet and then later on brings up another record that has been validated, code does not run. How can I get this code to run EACH and EVERY TIME the form loads.

View 2 Repliesthe user of my application is able to run a diagnostic tool which is part of my application. This diagnostic tool searches every file on the computer, logs the names, and if the my program is able to then the file will be read.
My program has other uses as well. If the user wants to do something else in my program then i want the diagnostic code to run in the background. I don't want this code to prevent users from using other features of my application since the diagnostic search does take time.
