View 1 RepliesI'm making an application in which I'm implementing auto-monitor turn off when system is idle, i.e. when user is not interacting with the system. [URL]it does provides the componenent to know when system is idle. But when I include:
Public WM_SYSCOMMAND As Integer = &H112
Public SC_MONITORPOWER As Integer = &Hf170
<DllImport("user32.dll")> _
[code]....
It shows this error: Cross-thread operation not valid: Control 'Form1' accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on.
I would like to get the idle time of my winforms application (not the system). This will enable me to update the database to show which users are online/offline amongst other things.

View 6 RepliesWindows resets the IDLE time every time the user touches the keyboard or the mouse. My application needs to reset the IDLE time at specific moments, but how to do this programmatically.
The following does NOT reset the IDLE time using VB, C# or QT4.
- Programmatic mouse movement / click.
- Programmatic keystroke.
Somehow Windows knows these actions are simulated. How can I reset the IDLE time?
I'm developing an Ajax-based application which makes heavy use of server calls to a WCF layer that communicates with a DB.Whenever I effect from the client (an ASP.NET page) many calls within a short span of time to the underlying WCF services, the system hangs and goes into a idle state.
View 2 RepliesI am in the process of developing an application for one of my clients. I am not going into the details of the applications, but brief facts of the same. The application is divided into two tiers (actually three, but the third tier is the database (SQL SERVER) so that is not included). The top tier (or first tier) is a web application (ASP.NET) where the users shall log into the system and use the application. This web application will also access the Database directly. One important activity the users shall do is uploading excel files with various information to the server. Web Application once the upload is successful shall enter the details in the in Database about the upload along with an ID and save the excel file at a location in the server.The Second tier is a VB.NET Application which will run in the server. The application will connect the database and retrieve the list of excel file uploaded by the web application and start processing one excel file after another based on ID. The processing that will be done is very simple: read the excel file, check for certain parameters, do some calculations and insert the whole details into the database. (say some 100 records per excel file)
The server in which the VB.NET Application (Second tier) runs is hosting a serious of services and application which shall run simultaneously including the Database (SQLSERVER), web server. The Database also host tables and database for various other applications. In order to help in the smooth functioning of the system, it has been decided that the VB.NET shall do the processing activity only when the server is idle (including CPU usage is idle). I have searched the Net and found API to get the system Idle status. But the real question is how to pause the processing activity when the system switch from idle mode and continue when it is again back to idle mode. Please note that I am talking about system being idle because no other application is executing any activity except the VB.NET Application.
way to reset a timer if there is form activity so it will not expire until the mouse has been at rest for 2 minutes.
This timer runs for 120000 milliseconds usually, and sometimes it lapses (and logs you out) when you are in the middle of editing. Sometimes 2 minutes is not enough time to do all the edits. So I wish to reset the remaining interval as long as there is mouse activity. But I am not sure the best method to do this?
I have found the mousemove event but to me this seems like it's going to fire way too often and tax the resources if I preform operations here, maybe not? Is there a better way to get this functionality?
I want this functionality so that if someone starts editing on the UI and walks off/gets distracted it will lock the grids back so that some other user can't come dork things up.
My main form has a timer that monitors idle time in my app: no mouse movements and no clicks.If the idle time reached 3 seconds, in *this example below*, then I want to show frmRestart, which will call the UnloadAllFormsExcept(Me) function from frmMain.When three idle seconds are reached, frmRepeat starts to show on the screen but never does!! I just see the border of the form and nothing else. My mouse goes into "thinking" mode forever.[code]
View 5 RepliesThe idea with this form is to add the futures which is calculated when the button is pushed but I need the list to update every time and show the values each time to which the previous value is added to the new calculation, e.g. of what it should look like in listbox:
Year 1: $1,290.93
Year 2: $2,724.32
Year 3: $4,350.76
etc....
I have been working on this a while and I am at a standstill, I was given a function to clear the form everytime it calculates but I don't know how to implement it, I am new to VB. Here is what I have so far:
Public Class frmFutureValue
Private Sub btnCalculate_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnCalculate.Click
[code]....
I wanna know how to make a Idle event that sets a timer to determine if my system idles for a minute and pop outs a form and stop the timer if that form loads?
View 2 RepliesWith a Time value in my program. Basically, I am importing a travel Time from a database e.g. 3:45 so it takes 3 hrs and 45 minutes to get from a to b. I then want to double this - 3:45 * 2 = 7:30, and then want to multiply it by a cost e.g. travel is charged at 25 per hour. so it would be total travel time = 7:30. Travel cost = 25. Total Travel Cost = 7:30 * 25. In the access db, it is stored as a text field, and then imported in vb as a string.
View 1 RepliesI wud like to calculate the time difference between two values.I have two values which is the in time and out time of each employee.Subtracting in time from out time should yield the time the employee has stayed at the office If the in time is 09:00:00 and the out time is 18:00:00.The difference between the two would be 9 hours.

I admit that this software based on cyber cafe management software. I try to make a new one and less complicated and easier to use for my shop.
I tried to googling and find some coding then try to apply it in but it won't working.
In this simple program:-
1. User click the checkbox. (time start)
2. User click the STOP button. (time stop)
3. Total RM textbox will show the total currency.

View 6 RepliesI have a program that I wrote in vb 2010 that keeps track of employee times in a database. It figures hours worked based on a range of dates selected using two DateTimePickers.I have it successfully working at this point to figure hours worked per day in the range for it's current practical use. But I was wanting to extend it so that it would handle over night shifts properly in case they did ever occur.Right now my code looks like this and it works for my current application:

I need to be able to display 60 * x. X is going to be the time between hitting a Stat button and a Stop button in seconds. I need this to be shown until it is stopped. So i was thinking something like txtBox1.text = 60*time, but I do not know if that is correct and I do not know how to get that time. Also I am not sure how to continuously update the text box.

the main problem here is i want to use 2 value from 2 line in one time to do that calculation... if those data in one line its not a problem..
I have a background process that require about 1 min to come to completion.
All the data are in memory and it does not need to read the harddisk.
I have noticed that the CPU utilisation during the full minute is less than 20%
is there a way to force the application to use more cpu to reduce the calculation time?
[code] Everytime i press the Calculate Button, it crashes on my first calculation part. What im trying to do is to not crash the program eventhough i have no input in it.
View 1 RepliesBasically i'm trying making a task manager program for myself. I want to know how I can display a message box and or play a sound when system time = time displayed in listview. I have used a dropdown box for the user to select which option they would like to select - sound or message box to popup. The data for the task will be stored in a listview box. I want it so that when the date and the time is = to the date and time set for the reminder the action will follow.Here is my code so far:
Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
Dim notext As String = ""
If TextBox1.Text = notext Then[code]....
I'm using
Days = Dat2.Subtract(Dat1).Days
where
Dat2 = today
Dat1 = installed date
to trace the days of a program installed in user's computer.However, the user can changes the system time of his computer to a advancing date. How can I get a SNTP time from internet to solve this problem?
When I run my app at first its keeps time accurately for the first minute or so there after it starts loosing seconds, and by the end of the day its minutes behind.I've created a class called ServerTimeTimer that has a timers.timer object that elapses every second and adds a second to a dateTime variable, and a property to retrieve the date time.[code]

The Now() function in VB.NET returns date and time which is different from the system time that I see on the right-bottom on the notification bar. It is 15 hours slower than the system time. Has anyone ever met this problem? I'm using .NET 2.0.
