View 1 RepliesI've created an application using VB.net windows application, but now i want to invoke it only from command prompt by giving inputs and outputs. How can i give inputs and get outputs to windows application in command-prompt.My windows application takes file as input and it process and makes a output file specified by the user. I've used 2-forms, in which one reads the input and other is used for the output.

View 1 RepliesI would like to have a command prompt type interface on my form. The only thing I am aware of is a textbox, but there are no facilities to have commands and output scroll without keeping the entire history in a variable. That would be an ever increasing variable, which is ridiculous. Is there an alternate way to use a textbox as a command prompt, or is there something else I can do. Another note, is the use of an array. I know I can increase an array with commands, but this is no good either, because some responses in the box need to be paragraphs in length, so even a separate array for command and output is too cumbersome.

View 3 RepliesIs there any way to use a VB form to supply user credentials to the Runas command in command prompt? I basically need something exactly the same as the GUI for RunAs but just for Internet Explorer (yes I know you can right click and go RunAs but that cant be done in this case). So the user would open this VB form, type their username and password in, hit OK and it would open Internet Explorer with their credentials (they log in under a generic account used by many people).

I am trying to send a command to the external command line (cmd.exe) from the Windows form application that I'm writing in VB.NET (using VS2008).
I can only access the external program thru the command line (its not my program) and I must do so from a form app.
I am trying to use the following code. I am able to call a cmd.exe window, but I can't pass the command line my command.
Using mp As New Process
With mp.StartInfo
.FileName = "cmd.exe"

I am working on an application that needs to have both a command-line AND windows form interface. I have designed the form, and written a basic console app. The issue comes when I try to display the GUI, as the application is a Console project in VS2008. I do the following:
Dim Apply As Boolean = False
Dim Check As Boolean = False
' Snip.

And the GUI flashes for a second, but then goes away. How do I make the GUI stay up, and wait for input?

What would I need to add in this simple code to make it loop every 5 seconds and until the console is closed?
