View 1 RepliesI'm wanting to transfer data between two programs. Basically, I have one program which is the "monitor" program. It opens another program and will fill a textbox in said program and then click a button on the program. When everything is done after clicking the button, the program will need to send something back to the monitor to tell it to close the program and open up another one to start the process over again.
View 4 RepliesI've finished developing a simple game with visual basic and I'm ready to send it to some friends so they can give it a go. So I log onto my gmail and attach all the necessary files, but when i try to send the email, 3 of my 5 files get blocked, including the .exe file which is crucial to running the program. I tried on my Microsoft outlook as well and no luck. Does anybody know of a way to send a program over email (or know of any emails that accept these types of files). Or maybe somebody knows of different file formats that I can convert my visual basic stuff to and then send it. Or maybe even somewhere i can upload my programs privately and then have my buddy downbload it there.
View 8 RepliesWe are upgrading a suite of data acquisition and analysis routines from VB6 programs to a mixture of VB.NET, VB6, and Matlab programs. We want to keep the system modular (separate EXEs) so we can easily create specialized stand-alone analysis programs without having to constantly upgrade one massive application. We have used MBInterProcess to send messages between EXEs when all the programs were written in VB6 and this worked perfectly for us (e.g., to have the data acquisition EXE send the latest file name to a stand-alone data display program). Unfortunately, this ActiveX cannot be used within Matlab or VB.NET to receive messages. We are wondering what is the simplest string message passing system (pipes, registered messages, etc) that we could adopt. Right now we are just polling to see if new file was written in a specific folder, which can't be the best solution. Our ideal solution would not require a huge investment in time learning nuances of Windows (we are biologists, not full-time programmers) and would work in both WinXP and 64-bit versions of Windows.
In response to the queries, we have wrapped the entire Matlab session within a VB6 program that has the MBInterProcess ActiveX control. That works but is not a great solution for us since it will probably lock us into WinXP forever (and certainly will prevent us from using the 64-bit version of Matlab). The latest version of Matlab (2009a) can access .NET functions directly, so we assume one solution might be to use the .NET library to implement pipes (or something similar) across programs. We would like to recreate the elegantly simple syntax of the MBInterProcess ActiveX and have a piece of code that listens for a message with that program's top-level Windows name, and then call a specific Matlab m-file, or VB.NET function, with the string data (e.g., file name) as an argument.

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 4 RepliesI'm in the middle of creating an application that will be used to input customer information whilst the customer is speaking to someone over the phone. This involves the customer giving the employee information such as name, address, postcode etc and the employee inputting that information into text boxes and combo boxes that are in the application.
What I would like to be able to do is after the customers information is given over the phone, I need to be able to send that information to a database which will probably most likely be done by button click. In this case, I'm using Microsoft Access. I'm also hoping that I can do this within Visual Basic coding.
The database is set out with multiple tables which include a customer table and a ticket table and both have multiple fields such as first name, surname in the customers table. Both of these tables are in use with the information that the customer gives over the phone.
I've already asked on other forums and people are where replying giving me third party programs that I could use to implement this, something I don't really want to do.

View 13 RepliesI have a program that, at present, reads a set of global variables from a text file. The program is on the client machines (around 100 clients). My problem is that when it comes to the update of the variables within the client program an error sometimes appears stating that the text file could not be read as it is already open (by one of the other machines). Currently I am cutting it down so that only 30 machines read from the single text file, although I am still going to get the error occasionally. Any ideas (apart from catching the error, and trying to read again until it works). Maybe another way to store the variables?

I am building a vb.net application with VS2010. The aim of the application is to change sln. files from VS2005/2008 versions into VS2010.I am using a Form with 2 text boxes and 2 buttons.

I have come quite far with the source code but am just a bit puzzled as to how i can retrieve the VS2005 sln files and to get the 'convert' button to display the text in the 2nd text box.[code]
