I have a VB windows application and I need a way to control input output from this windows application to a batch file.The batch script is quite complex so converting to a VB console application is out of the question because it will too much time.An simplified example is this:I have this batch file test.bat(just for example)
@echo off
set /p choice=name : %choice%
echo Hello %choice%!
In this batch file the user input the name which is then stored in a variable and after the user press enter on the screen will appear Hello + user input.
1. Is it possible to enter the name in a textbox from the windows form and by pushing a send button pass the name to the batch application and then the batch file to continue the operation of displaying the Hello message?
2. After the batch file finishes the operations it will open another console windows (3) with status of the various operations that take place on the system(in my case connected users to a server)Is it possible to hide this child console windows that are generated after my main .bat application finished the operations of opening connections?Can this be done from the windows application or I need to modify the .bat script?
3. Is there a way to collect the console windows output in a textbox from the windows application?One idea that came to me was to redirect the console output to a textfile and then read the textfile in the VB application but I want to know if there is another way.
4. Is it possible to hide this batch file inside the windows application exe?

I believe this is an encoding issue due to the resulting output. I am trying to make a batch file (meaning .bat) from VB.NET. The output looks fine in a normal text editor, but when executed via the command prompt, it keeps giving me syntax errors to start. I've even tried using CharCodes, but still to no success.

View 7 RepliesI am having trouble finding a code for visual basic 2010 (or 2008) that will compile batch files to a .exe format. (So they can no longer be edited.)So far I've only found one program that does this (And was made in Visual Studios) and the program doesn't even actually work due to some unknown error. It'd be a great help to get a source code or just told that this isn't even possible.

View 2 RepliesI have been looking all day trying to find a way to do this. I need to run a Batch file which is held on a server, the file path begins with a IP Address which DOS doesn't like. So i found the pushd command which assigns a temp drive letter from which you can run the Batch File.If i was simply running a normal program or file i would use:
Dim proc As Process
proc = Process.Start("c:\BatchFile.bat")
proc.WaitForExit()

I've been thinking of a new possible project, and I was wondering if it is possible to run BATCH or CMD commands straight through my VB program.I don't want to run a seperate .bat file either, I just want to run it from my code...I looked else where on the internet and they say to do things such as:
shell("cmd.exe")
sendkeys.send(" (put anything you want between the quotes) ")
I am busy writing a application that i can set up a list of files to copy from one location to a remote network drive.
THe program has a list of "jobs" in a datagrid that it loops through and executes in sequence. What i have now is a background worker that reports the status of which job it is on (File 1 of 5) but i would like something that shows the status of the current copying file as sometimes large files can look like it's stopped on the network
I am using the System.io.file.copy structure, but have also tried the my.computer.filesystem.copyfile (which shows the status in a "windows" copy box)
So, what i would like is some guidance on how to create a function that will copy the file but also report back progress periodicly. I don't want to read and write byte for byte as im worried this will be too slow.
Also, is there a better way/function to use to copy files? Looking for best speed

2) Remove ms project software from PC 04384 and re install on 07882
3) install needed for 2 vectra software for Finance department PC assest 9875 and 8711
4) Supply PC 500 SITA Rest Area phone 2268 Asset and S/N
5) Add printer Epson label printer in ISD2

7) Credentials for user UK15428 not logging onto the network
8) Install CD RW and unsupported software for UKX3395
9) Need Entire software installing on asset 5530, and access to password for use.
10) phone handset not functioning for UK10529, new phone required.

19) Cannot get onto network as I have forgotten my password, can you reset for UK15617
20) User cannot access voicemails, need mac address to edit on TOIP software
For example number 1) would be classified as a printer problem. I want the algorithm to be able to read each number, not the whole lot and classify the whole block of text, I want it to classify each incident individually, so there are 20 incidents to be classified.
