I am trying to execute the shell script in vb.net.[code]...
The script doesn't create the outfile mentioned in -out switch. The path mentioned is correct and also the command with switches is correct. It runs well in command prompt but not in the program. [code]...
Here's an example code so you can understand my problem:
Dim test1 As String
Dim test2 As String
Dim test3 As String
[code]....
shell.Run("""testProgram""test1 test2 test3 test4") 'I know this is wrong.My problem is in the last line. I want the contents of the strings to be printed, not the names of the strings, and I don't know how to do that.
how can i execute a shell command from a string
shell("cd", StringName)
the string comes from a user entered textbox
StringName = Textbox.text
how can i get this to work?
I need to execute the following commands from my application:
Echo Y | DEL C:Folder1cache*.*
DEL C:Folder1file.abc
DEL C:Folder1file.xyz

I am writing a setup program that runs as administrator. If I shell a program from the setup program will it also run as administrator?
View 6 RepliesI am working on a project, in which I have to run a MATLAB program in VB.NET In the project there is a VB.NET GUI, which contains a browse button. The user has to click on the browse button and select an image for processing. The user then has to click on the Process button for processing the image. After clicking the process button the image selected by the user has to go as input to the MATLAB program.
Q1) I want to know how to give the image selected by the browse button of VB.NET, as input to the MATLAB program for processing?Also while the image is being processed in MATLAB, a message such as "The image is being processed" must be displayed on the VB.NET GUI.
Q2) how to display the message "The image is being processed" on the VB.NET GUI, while the image is being processed in MATLAB?After the image has been processed in MATLAB, the image must be displayed on the VB.NET GUI.
Q3)how to display the image from MATLAB program in VB.NET GUI?
I'm going to attempt to make a shell replacement for the Windows default shell: explorer.exe. I'm not sure if its possible using Vb.Net, but I can't seem why not. My end goal is to use a custom made shell for a Windows Preinstallation Environment instead of the default command prompt. I plan to use a 3rd party program to compile the program with the .NET Framework. Otherwise, it wouldn't work because Windows PE does not support the .NET Framework.
View 1 RepliesI'm launching an Access ADE, using Tony Toews auto FE program. The AutoFE programs will, if newer version available, copy the latest version of the ADE from the server, then launch it. My code looks like:
Dim stAutoFE As String = "V:Appsautofestartmdb.exe /cmd /inifile: " & """" & "V:AppsAutoFESSP.ini" & """"
Shell(stAutoFE, AppWinStyle.Hide, True)
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000) ' Time delay
[code]....
I had to put the Sleep delay in, otherwise the GetObject would open the ADE a second time.But I don't know how long the copy from the server will take, so I need to remove that Sleep line and check that the ADE has opened.
So, let's say that I have a VBA application inside of whatever Office Application. I have created a command-line VB.net program to do all of the fun web-services stuff.Okay, the VBA application calls Shell() to run the command line program. Now, what is the best way to get information (a tracking number for a package) from the VB.net program back into the VBA program?
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to make a per-user shell for a Vista box to simplify use of a particular system for my users. I have no problem making a program that I want to use and I am familiar with the process of editin the registry to make my program the users shell but I've run into a snag.
Whenever a user with the custom shell logs on, there is a delay just after they enter their password where the system will sit at "Preparing Desktop" for about 30 seconds. I know for a fact that the user desktop is already made and this shouldn't be taking that long.
I've poked around on the web and see various places saying that winlogon is waiting for the shell to flag a "shell ready" flag of some sort but I am unfamiliar with any such flag.
Anyone know of such a fix for the long login time or anything about a shell ready flag?
visual basic 2010 after converting a program from visual basic 2008 is stating that the Shell function is a namespace and cannot be used as an expression. this can be fixed with the create sub feature but when debugging causes an error stating that there is a nohandled exception.

View 5 RepliesI have the following problem. I have a worker in VB .net (2010) which runs a shell-program. The shell program is a service and output stuff like:
Server initializing...
Server opening port...

I am able to 'catch' the output of the shell and add it to a textbox (using set text function). And I am able to Cancel the worker by clicking on a stopbutton, however when there is no more output by the shell I cannot stop the worker anymore. At least I suspect that's the case. I've tried checking for endofstream (commented section) but that doesn't work. I've also tried to same code with some test text in stead of 'clsProcess.StandardOutput.ReadLine' and that also works. So I came to the conclusion it must have something to do with clsProcess.StandardOutput.ReadLine being at the end?
Try
clsProcess.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = False
clsProcess.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = True
clsProcess.StartInfo.RedirectStandardError = True
clsProcess.StartInfo.FileName = serverpath + config_executable

CODE:
The command procedure calls a Java program that opens a dialog box, the cmd and java exe shows up in task manager, so I know it is being called, but no dialog box. I know normally having anything show up on a server that requires user interaction is a bad idea, but in the case, the users remote into the server to do their work. (They have to because of the environment) So, there is no problem with them being able to respond to a dialog box. I just need it to show up.

I was once using a program that was under beta, so the creator added a nifty feature. You could enter any vb.net code into a textbox, and when you pressed the button next to it, that code was executed. For example, you could type MsgBox("hello") into the textbox, click the button, and it would run that code as if you actually put it in the source code and ran it. I've googled so many different phrases trying to find out how to do this, but I can't find anything. Anyone have any ideas or resources I can look at?
