VS 2008 Controlling Windows Power Profile?
Jun 7, 2010I have done a search on Google but not really found anything. Worst case I suppose I could use "powercgf.exe -l" to list them modes then try to get the GUIDs out of that.

Windows - Last Login Date Of Server Profile?
Oct 5, 2011So I'm writing a program to monitor access dates on a server. My goal is to get the last login / access date of each profile that's on the domain controller, but I have no idea what file / setting / property I should be looking at. Currently, my program checks the last modified date of:
\my-dcc$Documents and SettingsuserNTUSER.DAT.LOG I did this because it seems to be the most recently updated every time someone's doing something. However, I did some looking up and apparently that file is updated every time the user's registry is changed, even if the user is not logged on. This doesn't serve me very well because then my program would report a lot of false positives.
TL;DR - is there a Windows property or a specific file I should look at when I'm checking the last logon date of a user?

View 2 RepliesControlling Windows Remote Desktop?
Mar 8, 2010I am trying to overcome a problem I am having with remote desktop.Basically I have 2 machines running in different locations. I use remote desktop to access one of them (the "Remote Machine") from the other.("My PC")The "Remote Machine" is performing automated tasks that require the screen to be active, not the user login screen.
When I do so the Remote Machine logs off and presents the normal windows login screen.When I am finished reviewing the remote machine I log off and then I need to log back into the "remote" machine. It has no monitior but I can log in by pressing the enter key which sends a keypress to log into the user account( there is only one). In fact I do this the other way around. I press the enter key on the "Remote Machine" and this logs the user back in - terminating the remote session on "MyPC".
The problem is I have to physically go to the Remote Machine to press this enter key.This is a hassle - One solution is to remotely re-boot the remote pc but the lead time involved is too great.I am unable to fix this problem by tweaking setting or registry hacks so I guess the solution must be to cause the remote user to log back in programatically.I am an experienced VB user but I have never worked outside the windows environment. Ideally I would like to programmtically send a keystroke "{enter}" to the login screen but this doesn't work.

View 1 RepliesVS 2008 Creating A Customer Power Plan?
Mar 6, 2010I'm trying to figure out how to create a custom power plan in code. I've searched high and low and have come up with very little so far.
The first thing I ran into was WMI. After looking up some information, it seems that all of the WMI Power features are ReadOnly.
Then I looked into the registry. This might be a feasible option, but it's hard to say. It seems each Power Plan has a unique GUID associated with it. This isn't a huge issue, since I can create one like so:
VB.NET
Dim _GUID As Guid = Guid.NewGuid
With this method, the issue now lies in the subkeys. Each Power Plan looks like it also has a unique ID for each option in the power plan.
There are two issues with this. First, even though subkeys are the same for each powerplan on my PC, I'm not able to test others at this time. So I can't know for sure that they are the same. Secondly, I have no way of knowing which subkeys relate to which power options.
My only two other options would be an API or .NET methods.
That being said, does anyone know of any way to create a power plan or some info on it?
VS 2008 : Adding The Power Packs 9.0 In The Installation Setup?
Sep 24, 2011I've just created a setup file for my application . Instead of using the click once process , I used the Create Install Free 4.14.5 program , in order to be able to specify some parameters that under click once I couldn't (like specifying installation folder etc) . The problem , however , is that now when I installed the application , an error message appears saying that the computer is missing the Visual Basic Power Packs 9.0 (which I indeed used in my application) . So , is there any way I can add it to my setup file ? That is in order to avoid making people manually downloading and installing it .

May 25, 2011With many of the programs that I use, I have noticed that the file dialog boxes automatically enter a new folder (if I create a folder thru the dialog box). But my OpenFileDialog boxes don't do that in my programs.When I open the OpenFileDialog and press the New Folder button, the box stays in the current directory and I am forced to click into the new folder. I have researched the OpernFileDialog and I don't understand how to change this behavior. I want to eliminate this extra click to enter the new folder.

View 5 RepliesControlling The Order Of Controls Being Populated On A Form In VB 2008?
Jul 29, 2011My form contains a datagrid and a checked listbox. The listbox is populated on the form_load event. There's a function called when the datagrid's SelectionChanged event is triggered that modifies the checkmarks in the listbox. It all works fine when I manually click on any item in the datagrid.
However, the very first time the form runs, the checkmarks are not affected, even though the first item in the datagrid appears selected. I discovered that this is because the actual listbox is not yet populated on the form at the time the very first SelectionChanged event is triggered. So when the function tries setting the checkboxes, it doesn't get anywhere, since it doesn't see any items in the listbox.
Somehow the datagrid is getting populated, even before the form_load event is triggered. I need the listbox to be populated before the datagrid is populated, but I have no idea how to control this.
VS 2008 Controlling Command Flow For TextBox.TextChanged?
Feb 6, 2010I have a TextBox called Social. As you type in a Social Security Number into the textbox, it formats itself into the standard Social Security Number Format (XXX-XX-XXXX). It automatically adds in the dashes after the third and fifth number, or corrects/removes the dashes if numbers are added or removed from in front of the dashes. Also I coded the script to record the caret's location so that the caret goes back to where the caret was before the adjustment in dashes.
I used Pos and PosHold to hold the caret's location.
The problems I am having are:If I remove a number before one of the dashes, the caret is reset to '0' from using break points, it seem to jump out of the if statement before setting the location of the caret. Sometimes when a number is removed from before the dashes, the dashes are removed like scripted but, the dash is not put back in the correct location. This seems to happen primarily if you have numbers passed the second dash.

Private Sub Social_TextChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Social.TextChanged

Apr 9, 2011I have VS 2008 and am working in VB.Net forms.I have a webbrowser control where I am trying to control input fields that are dynamically created. If a text field has proper handles such as id and name tags there aren't any problems.
For example, I am trying to work with twitter for posts. I know twitter has an API but I want to work with many similar systems and want to avoid the API as its case specific and I want to scale things within the VB.Net form. The login fields for twitter are easily handled, however the posting field once your logged in is just a text area with a class. There is a tagname but I have been unable to post using the tagname element.Any examples of posting to twitter without the API ?

web1.Document.GetElementsByTagName ... ?
I've done extensive searching but can find nothing to make it happen. DOM inspectors havn't revealed much about the field.
