I need to open, and when done, close an external Exe. In this instance, the Windows Calculator. Here is what I'm doing
vb.net
Public Class Form1
Dim MyProcess As System.Diagnostics.Process
Private Sub btnOpenCalc_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As

From what I've seen and read, this is the way to terminate a running exe isn't it?
FormA calls DialogB where user cancels DialogB which exits via ForceTermination(), see insert.Caller FormA check for DialogResult not = OK, which it isn't, and I can see this in debug as Abort(3).However, the code continues merrily along its way until I get a 'null reference' error which I'm trying to avoid via Force Termination().This is caused by the user cancelling DialogB, a selection process to get a database (SQL) instance.[code]

I am in process to develop an application for Windows Mobile 6.5 using Visual Basic 2005 and .NET Compact Framework. My problem is that I want to know if an instance of my application is already running and, in that case, I want to jump directly to that instance, without starting another one. I tried several solutions found on the internet but I think there are solution for desktop applications not for mobile applications because I have a lot of errors.

View 2 RepliesI have a simple GUI form to hide / show / minimize / terminate / force terminate Processes. i can do all well but for show and hide i need the MainWindowHandle to show or hide it
So here is hide process code:
Dim Proc As New Process = Process.GetProcessesById(List.SelectedRows(0).Cells(1))
Dim hwnd = Proc.MainWindowHandle
ShowWindow(hwnd,0)
If i try the same with show code:
Dim Proc As New Process = Process.GetProcessesById(List.SelectedRows(0).Cells(1))
Dim hwnd = Proc.MainWindowHandle
ShowWindow(hwnd,9)
The MainWindowHandle become 0 cuz its hidden is there is any other way to get the MainWindowHandle of Process ?

View 2 RepliesI want to terminate an application using the full file path via vb.net, so I am using this code snippet.
Public Sub forceCopy()
Try

I wrote the following code to build a basic game that makes two cars race (randomgenerator) and let the user pick their bets on the end results. I've gone terribly wrong somewhere in that my cars only race halfway then get stuck behind the start line and the programme keeps repeating the beeping and the messsagebox.show and adding results to the 'incorrect' box.
The only way to terminate the application is to hit 'stop debugging'.

Option Strict On

I have the following code which I assumed would exit the program and terminate the process but it doesnt seem to work[code]...
View 6 RepliesI'm having troubles with terminating an application. When I close the main form everything disappears but the process remains active. I think I know the cause, a certain activeX component will not release properly. As soon as I create one, I can't close normally...
dim someActiveXcomponent = new X()
...
<formClosing>
someActiveXcomponent = nothing
GC.Collect()
GC.WaitForPendingFinalizers ' here it hangs
Probably a bug in that component, but the problem is that I don't have much of a choice, I'll have to use that component for now.
Calling
System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComO bject( myObject )
will kill the reference and now the application closes properly.
i made a program and used a program called Advanced Installer to put all the files from the build folder into one big install exe file to send to people but one they've installed it and go to open it they get an error saying: "the application has failed to initialize properly (0xc000135). Click on OK to terminate the application" What does this mean? do i need to have the NET framework on the machine its being run on?

I recently moved my Application that was running off of Window XP and created in VS 2005 over to a box that's running Windows7.Now, when I try to debug, I can't edit. In the lower portion of the screen, it gives me this error: Cannot currently modify this text in the editor. It is read only.
Under Tools->Options->Debugging, Edit and Continue are already selected; so it's something else. Also, under project properties->compile I have it set to Cofiguration (Active Debug) and Platform (Active Any CPU).
what account for this error message in ls beta 2?'' The last change wasn't successfully persisted.Please shot down the running application.

Which is the best way to store application and user settings of an application running with multiple instances?My problem is that using the vb's "Application Settings" one instance would overwrite the other one.I want to identify each instance with a number passed via command line argument. I could use this number to identify the appropriate settings of the running instance, but I see in a local INI o XML file a better way to handle that.
View 1 RepliesLet's say 10 desktop shortcuts, all with different names/icons, point to and can start the same exe application from the same directory. Is there any means for the application to know the distinct name of the shortcut that was doubled_clicked. Also is there any means for a running application to know if it was started by command line, by a double_click on the exe, by a double_click on a shortcut that points to it, or by another process' call?
