I'm trying to get my program to launch another .exe within the project folders. At the moment I am using:Dim oasicer As Process = System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("oasicer.exe", "hammer_8_8.txt")but the program starts and stops straight away. the files were originally in a folder called OASIC in the debug folder, so I had "OASIC" before them, but that didn't work either.

I like to make an console application to measure the time it takes to fully load a web page, what's the best approach to do that? The purpose of this small app is to monitor some pages in a website, in a predetermined interval, in order to be able to know beforehand if something is going wrong with the webserver or the database server. It would be nice to be able to measure the time it takes to fully load the the page (images, css, javascript, etc). I have some code but I is not measuring the fully page.

Dim req As System.Net.HttpWebRequest = CType(HttpWebRequest.Create("[URL]"), HttpWebRequest)

I am trying to load an Excel 97 single tabbed spreadsheet into a SQL server table using the OleDbDataAdapter function. From all the documentation I have found, the first parameter should be "select * from [sheet1$]". This works fine for me only if the tab in the worksheet is named Sheet1. If I change what's in the [] brackets to the actual tab name, it also works fine.
View 2 RepliesI have a question. I am creating a VB .NET application that opens Visio to do some stuff there. Visio runs a splash screen on startup and the only way to stop the splash screen from loading is to use code like:
"C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeVisio10Visio.exe" /nologo
"C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeVisio11Visio.exe" /nologo
"C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeVisio12Visio.exe" /nologo
For each Visio versions in the command line (but I am not using the command line).
The problem I am having is that I can't run this code from my vb .net application, because my application uses the following code to load Visio:
Dim vsoApplication As Application
vsoApplication = New Visio.Application()
vsoApplication.Visible = False
And I do not know how to call the "/nologo" feature on loading time from my code to skip the Visio splash screen.
I want to create a form that, when starting, will display in a ListBox the content of a txt file. I know the file is read because I can display the content in a MsgBox. Here's a snippet of what I tried so far:

Dim filein As String = "MyProjects.txt"
Dim objReader As New System.IO.StreamReader(filein)
ListBox1.Text = objReader.ReadToEnd
objReader.Close()
End Sub
When I debug my app, ListBox1 is empty.

View 7 RepliesI am loading an access database in vb.net using
me.adaptername.fill(me.datasetname.tablename)
The thing is that this takes a lot of time and the program doesn't move on to the next line until it finishes loading all the data. Some of these tables I need only later but I don't want to make stall work while doing it. Is there a way to load a database without waiting for it in the code. and a way to check if it finished loading in code. this way i'll be able to load it in the backgroud after the program has started and if the user wants to use options which require tables which weren't loaded yet i'll be able to know and avoid errors.
Alright, for a school project i'm making a filecrypter, and i need to load the executable directly into the memory.
For those that don't know it yet, a crypter consists of a crypter, and a seperate "stub"
the crypter crypts the file, and the stub is binded to the file, and upon execution, the stub is executed, and in turn executes the file it's bound to.

I have a base form which has toolstrip. I am loading few icons to the toolstrip through the code as given below
mnuFind.Image = Image.FromFile(Application.StartupPath & "ImagesSearch.ico")
mnuSave.Image = Image.FromFile(Application.StartupPath & "ImagesSave.ico")
This code is in the form load event of the base form.
At the design time the images are displayed in the form.
The problem is in the inherited form. The inherited form is not loaded in the designer window. It gives the following error.
The service System.Windows.Forms.Design.IEventHandlerService already exists in the service container. Parameter name: serviceType
Some times it says it cannot find the image in the installation path of Visual studio.
If I remove the icons loading in the base form it works fine.
