VS 2008 BGW Open From Slows Process?
Jun 13, 2011
I am using the BGW to run a long loop of several thousand records against several thousand records. If I open another form in the project then the process slows down dramatically, that is because in the Form I am opening has a DGV tied to Table that is being used in my loop process, so I understand why the process slows down.
What i am wondering and experimenting with is how to close the form and have the process resume to "Full Speed" if possible
I tried Closing the form verse Hiding it and DGV.DataSource = Nothing
Thinking that would unbind it?? and free up resources?

all of a sudden my program just doesn't seem to work like it used to.[code]It searches the picture box for the color that you tell it to, and it moves and clicks the mouse at that pixel. Well... it used to do that, now it just locks up and won't respond for about 20 seconds.

I'm trying to open any file using Process.Start, but every time I try to open a file that isn't an executable the program crashes... This is the code I'm currently using:
vb.net
Private Sub ListView1_MouseDoubleClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles ListView1.MouseDoubleClick
For Each lvi As ListViewItem In ListView1.SelectedItems
Process.Start(path & "" & lvi.Text)
Next
End Sub
Path is a string that contains the selected folder path, and lvi is the text of the list view item (each item contains the icon and name of each file). It is working fine for .exe files, I was just wondering if it's JUST for .exe files...

I want to be able to read and write the process memory of Firefox for a game on facebook(It's kind of like cheating only you can't cheat, nothing stays permanent.) this is just for fun. The game is called happy fish aquarium and you raise fish in the game and it's just really addicting. I found a program that reads process memory and lets me change certain values in happy fish aquarium so I can make my fish tank look different or whatever. But if I reload the page it will of course go back to the original state because the fish tank's memory is held online. The point is, I just want to make a program that can read the process memory from Firefox from a certain range and bytes. like 4 bytes and a range of 00400000 to 7FFFFFFF. Does anyone know how I can achieve this? Please note, this is not for cheating purposes in any way whatsoever, it's simply for visual fun(visual meaning only I can see it). What I want to do is the same as using the add-on firebug in firefox to change the html on a webpage.

I was wondering if this code could be better optimized for multithreading. What it does is open a process and loops through the data, there could be any range of files to open (so I would like to have say 2 or 3 processes at once):

I just installed the .Net4 update from Windows update. (KB2416472) Date last published: 9/30/2010
Now when I boot up it takes almost a minute before apps loaded are usable, for example Avast virus shows its not in full protection mode, you can't access any apps I made that are in the tray, even the LAN is not active or in the tray, before the .Net4 update I could access these apps instantly. The update also adds another file to the running processes called mscorsvw.exe. (yeah more bloatware!)
I have a back-up image of my C: drive so I restored the image twice now and installed the .net4 update and see no difference, it still slows everything down on boot, on WinXP anyway, haven't tried it on my Win7 PC yet. Just curious if anyone else noticed any abnormalities with the .net4 update that was just released.

I wrote a small application (150kB) which controlls 2 comports, is sending and receiving messages from both sides and is able to write/read into a text file. My problem starts after I run the application for 2 hours or more. The PC starts to be really slow, it takes ages to even open a folder. What can be the reason? I understand, there might be something in the buffer; how can I clear the buffer from time to time.

I have a strange issue when using WindowsImpersonationContext.
Whenever I use Impersonation in a Windows Forms and the Main Form loses focus, all of the controls freeze up and their events are either not triggered or take too long to trigger. This only happens when I use LogonUserA with a user that is not the current[code]....

I'm using Visual studio 2008 and microsoft sapi in a forms application. I am using text to speech which works just fine however when the computer is speaking it "bricks" the application and the main ui is unresponsive until the computer is done talking then everything returns to normal. To counter this issue I tried using the background worker thread to establish the sapi on another thread however the form is still freezing when the computer speaks. I would like to note that at this point there is nothing on the form except a tabbed window and a few buttons the form is not performing any code what so ever other then the text to speech.

I found a strange issue with the combination of RichTextBox and RegEx.If I load a text file into a RichTextBox and use
Dim matches As MatchCollection = Regex.Matches(RichTextBox1.Text, "^H(.+ ){10}
", RegexOptions.Multiline Or RegexOptions.IgnoreCase)
then the RegEx will run blazing fast.OTOH if I load the text from a file straight into a string and feed this string with RegEx.Matches using
Dim FullText As String = New StreamReader("c:TempTextFile.txt", System.Text.Encoding.UTF8, True).ReadToEnd
Dim matches As MatchCollection = Regex.Matches(FullText, "^H(.+ ){10}
", RegexOptions.Multiline Or RegexOptions.IgnoreCase)
then the regex will run for ages.Now obviously the RichTextBox does something to the text. I found that loading the text into the RichTextBox will eliminate the first 4 bytes of the text (is that the byte order mark?). However, trimming those 4 characters with SubString won't solve the problem. RichTextBox does some other processing that I'm unaware of.I'm using RegEx both on client and server side (client can load text files into a RichTextBox to test and setup various RegEx's and the server will process text files according to these previously setup RegEx's). Needless to say that a regex will run blazing fast on the text file loaded into a RichTextBox, while the very same RegEx ran through the very same text file will seem to lock up the server side service.My question: what kind of text processing does the RichTextBox do and how can I mimic the behavior in a server-side process?

As a preface, I am brand new to using SQL Server 2005; I know how to use the SELECT, UPDATE, DELETE, and INSERT commands and that's about it. I am also using Express Edition on my local PC (E8400 processor, 8GB of DDR2-800, 2 x 640GB SATA-II HDD in RAID 1)
I have a table that I set up with 8 columns, all are NVARCHAR(Max) and I allow Null. I know in concept what a primary key is, but I don't have one (nor do I know how to set one up).
My VB.NET program that I'm working on is downloading a historical stock price chart from Yahoo, for every single ticker symbol in existence. The first 50,000 rows or so I added was super fast. Then I went to bed, and when I woke up it was still running - but the rate of row additions has slowed waaaaaay down; I noticed this around row 300,000. I always expected the rate of row addition to be constant over time, but obviously this is not so!
From browsing other Stack Overflow questions, I suspect my slow down is related to my piss-poor table setup. If this is the case, where should I begin first to fix this, and are there any good resources I could read up on to get started? I'm hoping this is something simple I can fix [code]....

I just finished working on my school vb project - breakout. As soon as i import background my ball speed slows down dramatically. I used 1.25mb bmp, 40kb jpg, and lower resolution copies of both but i get the same result. In my game i use bitmaps for bricks, platform and the ball along with a timer and draw e.graphics function. How can i illuminate the reduction of the speed of the ball when i add my background?

so I have a console (that runs through a process) and it is redirected to a textbox (why I can't use shell) and I was just wondering how I can send keys to the console. What the console is doing is running a minecraft server. The server runs through the console and using the standard input does not work while the server is running (which stops me from stopping the server, and doing anything else to it).

How do I get the list of open file handles by process id in C#?
I'm interested in digging down and getting the file names as well.
Looking for the programmatic equivalent of what process explorer does.
Most likely this will require interop.

I would like to launch a command line exe I created. For now it's a test program that writes Hello World to the console. I can launch it, but the shell window it displays it in only stays for a split second.
I know I can add a line to my console mode program (readline). But I would like to control it from the process launch. I will be using console mode programs that I did not write myself, and many of them don't stall the output. I can't find the right properties and methods to control the default shell behavior!

I've created a very simple form with one button on. I need it so when the form runs, it opens in the bottom right hand corner of the screen regardless of the resolution. It also needs to be always on top of all other applications.
When the buttons pressed, i need it to close all iexplore instances and reopen a fresh instance.
I've tried to search for the answer but to no avail.

I am using the Process.Start function to open a program based off a registry value. It works, sort of. Here is the snip of the
Imports System.Data.SqlClient
Imports System.Console
Imports System.Configuration
[Code]....
The program opens with the correct registry value, but the program itself does not run quite right. This program feeds into Intergraph and brings up the selected drawing, but there is a feature of intergraph that doesn't work. If I manually start ( double click ) pdsicon.exe the program works just fine. It only when I call the process that it doesn't work quite right.

I have written a windows service that is meant to launch a notepad when a specific action happens. The problem i have is that even though the service launches notepad, the actual notepad it self is NOT visible. I know that it has been launced because i can see the process in the task manager. By the way the process is listed as a SYSTEM process rather than a process under my user name (i believe that is because my process is a "LocalSystem" one).
