Transfering Information Between 2 Processes?
Dec 31, 2009
I have 2 applications.
1. THE application
2. Updater
When my app starts it will check if it's the right version with a webservice, if not then it downloads new files and runs the updater. The updater will copy paste the new files overwriting the old ones.At the moment, I am using a xml file to transfer information from the app to the updater like the where the updater has to copy the files to.However, I would like to get rid of this xml file and send this information to the process directly.

I'm working on a Parental control
I have 3 questions:
1) How to detect a starting process -
Solved here
2) How to capture a copy of the process and look in all controls from all forms to see if the Text/Items property has offensive keywords
3) If yes, how to close them immediately. - myProcess.kill
Write your code as efficient as you can to reduce CPU load, to consume less energy and protect our planet from global warming.

I am making a function of an application that when a function is called the application will close all processes that are owned by the user and were started after a specific point. My thoughts on this would be to trigger an event in my application every time a process is started and ended, and only if the processes is owned by the user, the event should get information (e.g. the process ID, name, etc) about that process and add or remove that information to/from an array depending on if the process starts or ends. Then when a function is called end all the processes in that array.

I have a form set up that allows the user to do many things to manipulate items. One of the things they can do is replace an item with another. To do so, what I have them do is click the Replace button on the main form. This calls the show of a choose replacement form where there is a grid view containing the replacement options and a Replace and Cancel button. When the user selects a product from the grid, and clicks the replace button, I want the item's ID to be sent back to the main form to be used in the replacement sub.This is what I have:
Main form:
Form Load:
AddHandler replaceComponentForm.Replace, AddressOf Me.Replace
ReplaceButton.Click[code].....
The problem is the events don't seem to be reaching the main form. The replacement form closes, but Replace does not get called in the main form.

My application runs on a "server" machine and provides files (10megs - 100megs each) to 8 other computers. Currently this is done using a standard shared folder on all 8 computers and the server simply copies the file to \ComputerNameSharedFolder - and everything is great.However, due to new policies we need to remove all shared folders, so using a simple \ComputerNameSharedFolder is no longer feasible. Therefore I need to find a way for my application to be able to share these files in a safe, secure, and compliant way.There has been talk of using sFTP which would require each system to have an sFTP server running at all times (controlled by the application somehow), or also SSL was talked about as it can be integrated into the application easily, etc...

The program is currently trying to pull information from three different database tables and compiling the information onto one screen, to do this i am using three different connections and a function to handle the data at each stage. The issue is as my code hits PageLoadStage of "2" and runs the QueryDatabase() Function i am encountering an error of: "OleDB exception unhandled: No value given for one or more of the required parameters." This occurs on line 15 of the first code snippet. Can anyone explain this and/or identify any code issues if that is the cause.

I was looking for some stuff online, and i was looking through my reference sheets for vb.net, but it seems in the code i have found, there is declare in methods. Below is an example i am talking about. The thing is, that i dont recognize it and believe that it is an earlier version of Visual Basic ( 6 or earlier) which used it. Should i just keep looking for different code?
Public Declare Function RegOpenKey Lib "advapi32.dll" Alias "RegOpenKeyA" (ByVal hKey As Long, ByVal _
lpSubKey As String, phkResult As Long) As Long
Goal: Find information on how to implement a method which will check if a certain DSN exists, and then if it does, extract the information and use the information for connection purposes.

I have a text box where i am entering numbers of double datatype andon the Keytdown event of the textbox some checks take pace and in certain circumstances I want to be able to stop the user from entering other information until they enter the right information in the textbox (where it says right here) . now when I say exit sub the textbox somehow loses focus . but this is not how I want it to be I want the textbox to remain with the focus so the user can change the information . How can i go about this. And the other thing is why is my txtDestPayRate1.Focus() just befor the exit sub not working?
Private Sub txtDestPayRate1_KeyDown1(sender As Object, e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles txtDestPayRate1.KeyDown
If e.KeyCode = Keys.Enter Then

For some time ago i have notice that my App on every start make a call to csc.exe and starts it. I know for sure that that did not happened before and I can not find out why this is happening now, or better to say: what did I do in code to make this happened? I have google-it and found out that csc.exe is some kind off on-the-fly compiler for C# (If I understand it correctly ) but my App is in VB.net so I am a bit confused. Can someone explain it to me in general what have I did in my VB.NET code to make my App on every start calls csc.exe?

is there a way to only get the processes that are shown in taskmgr?
The reason for this is because taskmgr hides some task on vista because you have to be admin to see all of it.

i have a small issue while developing a windows application using VB.Net . i will explain the scenario here. My application contains one form which has two tab buttons. say tab1 and tab2. In tab1, i have an option to download data from various sites. this takes few minutes. lets say 15 minutes. and in tab2 i have an option to view the logs. my problem is i am unable to click the tab2 unless and untill the downloading finish. my doubt is how to do more than processes at the same time. if i am right we need to use threading concept here.

I have a need to search for a specific process in task manager and attach (dock) my application to the window for that process. I have this working just fine. The problem I'm having is that sometimes this process may be running more than once (for example: running two Internet Explorers would put two iexplore.exe entries in Task Manager).
Is there a way to get the one that was opened first? I'm not sure how they get "sorted" in the Process list, but currently I am retrieving the first occurrence of the process and docking to it, but I'm finding that it isn't always the correct one. How can I make it always dock to the process entry that was opened first?

I have done a lot of searching and cannot find a solution to my problem of, my application appearing in the processes even after exit.
Note: It doesnt appear in the processes due to the type of exit i have used after the click function happens.
