View 1 RepliesI am currently working on an application, where I am using a console application, that will set up the application prior to the main form is run. This is no problem I've got that all working perfectly, the only problem I have is that the console is showing while the application is running, I was wondering whether anyone knows any way in which I would be able to hide the console before it gets shown to the user.
View 12 RepliesHow do I get the console from closing immediatley upon opening in a Console Application program? I have all of the code written but when I run the program it pops up the console window and then immediatley exits so I am unable to read what is in the window to see if my program is operating correctly. This is the first time I've ever used a console window so I don't know where in the code I would need to put "whatever it is" I might need to put to keep the window open until closed by the user.

View 2 RepliesI have a console application I'm using to run scheduled jobs through windows scheduler. All the communication to/from the application is in email, event logging, database logs. Is there any way I can suppress the console window from coming up?
View 5 RepliesIt sounds confusing but it's not really. What I need is basically a way to emulate the console style text, without using a console. What I'm really doing is trying to do a matrix effect on my form background, by drawing symbols and moving them, alternating their colors (see this video for what I mean).
Is there a way to do this effectively with a timer and a draw event, with the timer calling the draw event and changing the intervals?

I have a VB .NET 2003 application that runs on the console. When the application runs, the console window pops up which isn't always necessary. Does anyone know of a way to prevent that console window from popping up, but still continue to run? I was thinking of something along these lines:

I was just googleing this, and i came across this
Dim p As New System.Diagnostics.Process
p.StartInfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden
p.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = True
p.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = True
p.StartInfo.FileName = "cmd.exe"
p.Start()
Does that mean that i could show it again? if so, is there a code that can do this?Also, if i wanted to get the window that the user is currently in, how would i be able to hide that?
I have a form (f1) and a popup form(p1). On f1, when I click on a button, I call p1 like such:
Dim spp As New p1
spp.ShowDialog()
and in p1, I have a progress indicator that shows a long running process. The problem is that p1 doesn't show. I tried invalidate, update, refresh, doevents, etc. (both in f1 as well as p1). Nothing. p1 just doesn't show.
I have 2 desktop programms..I will call them P1 and P2.So, P1 launches P2 as a process. However, at some point I want to be able to show a window in P2. My problem was that this window, when called, was showing correctly placed, in the middle of the screen, but in the back of P1.So, in order to show it as the top most window, above all others applications running on my computer, I used the windows API:
Const HWND_TOPMOST = -1
Const HWND_NOTOPMOST = -2
Const SWP_NOSIZE = &H1[code]...
Now the window shows on top of all other, but it is placed in the top left corner of the screen, resized to much small dimentions, that I cannot even see the controls on it.
I have a console application that lists all files in a folder and then deletes them![code]This code lists the hole path to the file, but i only want that the filenames are shown (not the path)!And i also want the console window to close after 5 seconds.
