Start Program At A Specific Time?
Apr 8, 2010
how to start a VB.NET program at a specific time of the day, but I simply cannot find it. I've found an example that shuts down the computer at a specific time of the day, but having no experience with the Timer function, I wouldn't know where to start when hacking the code.As an example, I'd like the program to run at say 2:00PM and display a message. The displaying the message won't be hard (MessageBox.Show("Stuff")), it's just the starting .

I am aware that if you wish to run a program at a specific time, the best way is to add it to the windows task scheduler. I have a forms application that accepts as input a text file and some button selections before the actual main runs.
Can this kind of program be scheduled? I realize I would have to hard code the inputs but does .net have any features to access the task scheduler?

I have a program that allows a user to select a program to run at a certain time for a specific amount of time all choosen by the user. Everything works with the exception of if my program has launched the other program, my program become non-responsive. Meaning I am not able to look at that window again. Not that one really needs too, because when time is up my program closes the program it opened, then closes itself. I just want to be able to see my program when the other program is running. how to do this and perhaps drop me some links, that would be wonderful. This is what I have coded, but like I stated there are no code errors.

Here's what I currently have:
[Code]...
I've commented out various things to limit it to specifically this command (example, I can swap mklink out with notepad and it works fine). The command runs fine from a DOS window, but can't be found when I use it this way. I also tried using the SHELL command just to test and I get the same results. No idea why it can't be found, as like I said it executes from the command prompt just fine.

I know that to start a program at startup, we should add this subkey
"C:Program Files<myprogram's path><nameoftheprog>.exe"
to
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionRun
Alright!
But the problem is when my program has to delete a certain file in C:/ at startup, it just can't because it's not ran as administrator!

This may sound silly but is it possible to run a separate exe and call a specific form to load?
For example:
Let's say I have two exes one that checks licensing and then once that is done it calls another separate exe to load a specific form based on the type of license selected?
It sounds doable but can anyone share a snip it of code that may do the trick?

I have written my first service that checks the status of servers. I have used the statement System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(86400000), so that the service will run, then sleep for 24hrs before running again.
My problem is i want the service to run at 7am every morning, when i install and start the service it will run from the time i start it. I dont have access to required computer at 7am.
Is there a way of setting the service to run at 7am on the first run? Was thinking a Loop, or timer but dont want to be eating resources up while it is not necessary.

Is there any specific reason why camel casing examples often start with a lower case letter?
E.G:Dim btnSave As New Button
'as compared to.>>
Dim BtnSave As New Button
Is it to make a distinction between the ( object / variable ) and its TYPE?
Why then does the IDE not add items starting with a lower case letter if lowercase initial lettering is more common or more accepted?

I have a procedure at the end of my console application that ask the user to either hit enter to end the program, or type s to perform another search. The issue I'm having is no matter what the user types in the program end. What I would like to happen is if the user types s, then the program starts over and lets the user perform another search. The program is procedural and I need to find a way to start back off at the top of the program which ask the user to type a name to search.

I am part of a group writing a program for scheduling purposes. In the program I must check to see if times are overlapping.Say an Instructor is in class 1/1/2011 3:00:00pm to 1/1/2011 4:00:00pm receive the Instructor and 1/1/2011 3:10:00pm to 1/1/2011 4:50:00pmThis should return True the instructor is overlapped.Of course the other side would be if the time started/ended before or after the original class.I've tried many different combination's of if statements similar to:
If (begTime <= s.BegTime AndAlso endTime <= s.BegTime) Or (begTime >= s.EndTime AndAlso endTime >= s.EndTime) Then
End If

How does one check to see if the system time is equal or not equal to a specific time? So, say I want to perform an action if your system time is between 6pm and 6am. Or something similar?

I had a post on it but i ran into the same problem. My program downloads a text file from server and checks it.
It works but it makes the program crash for 4-9 seconds.I was thinking of downloading the file more slowly or using Threading()

Knowing the hWnd and the Title of all the desktop windows, I whould like to order them by start time order (them order on the task bar)In your opinion is there an API that gives those data? I can't use the Process.StartTime property because many of these windows have the Process.MainWindowTitle = "" and Process.MainWindowHandle = 0
