So I need to disable to start menu and have found a code on a website but it doesn't seem to work. Heres the

Edit: I'm creating a program for places like schools or library where the password for all users are the same. I already made the program go to full screen and always on top and have disabled the user from using taskbar but I can't stop the start menu from appearing.
I'm making a security program that locks the users screen. I have already figured out how to disable task manager but now I need to disable the task bar from showing and the start menu. Also, trying to do an event on alt+F4 doesn't seem to stop the program from exiting. Any other solutions? This program is intended for security reasons and I am not using it for any viruses.

But it doesn't seem to work, I can get the taskbar handle but not the start menu handle
I want to start my project with a sub main by disabling the application framework. The problem is that if i do this then the application starts and then exits in a few moments. Is there a way which could hold it until the last form is closed.
I have been working on an app that was basically a vb6 app but had to be changed and I did it all using VB 2008. works well, great. One of the problems that I had was to work on different groupboxes or frames. Since they are layered on top of each other, working on one frame would mess up the others. Eventually it all went okay. but now if i want to add another item in the menu and hence add another groupbox (or frame) in the same app - it would definitely be a nightmare.

Now the number 40 shows up in the web broswer so why isnt the ELSE showing the message box saying Login OK and the others?
I'm working on a program that allows me to edit XML data in a DataGridView. I have most everything working but I don't like my current TreeView Structure.I load the XML data into a DataSet and edit it there, so that is what I'd prefer to base my TreeView on. I've tried a few things such as..

What I'd really like to have is a tree view that shows the Parent Child objects nested. I'm not sure exactly how to accomplish that in this case...
my Hangman Codes aren't working and i'm stuck at the part where it searches the word to see if the letter/word is in the word to guess and then i would like some pointers on how to go about making this D**n thing work.Here's the code i got so far.'I Know that i have some things in here twice and in different ways but that's because one didn't work so i tried another and that didn't work either i had them annotated out for debugging'

I need to disable a button after its pressed so the user does not have the ability to click it again as this would replicate the process in some cases.After alot of searching I found some tips - alot of code I found I could not understand.This is what I have come up with:
On page load: If Me.Page.IsPostBack Then 'lblDetails.Text = "disabled"
[code]....
I also read somewhere that I should use: System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000) to delay the process or something - not entirely sure why I would do this though.Although, the problem with my above code is that when the code behind page performs validation checks, it exits sub before executing my INSERT SQL code - so when it does this it also disables the button.I am not entirely sure if the above method is fool proof or whether it is a **** piece of code that won't work 100% of the time.On another website I found a script to put on the actual HTML page with <script> tags:
I created shortcuts for some of my exe's in the program menu. For example, I might create shortcuts for a.exe, v.exe, and g.exe. By default, it aligns as a, g, v (in alphabetical order). I want to place my shortcuts in a different order, such as (v, a, g).
In short, I want to be able to change the order for the shortcuts it creates to something other than alphabetical order.
I am using wshshellobject in vb. I created a dll; through that I created my shortcuts
I'm working on making a game using VB, and part of the game involves being able to cast magic. What I did was put all the magic spells into a table in a database with the various properties I'll need at one point or another.The problem is that I need to only be able to select from a list of certain spells (Namely those your character is strong enough to be able to cast), and have it display the cost of the spell in a text box. My way of getting the right spells was as follows..first mak the structure of the table: [code] how can I use that usableSpells table I made as though it were in a database (IE making a textbox have something like "usableSpells.Spell_Cost" and making it display the relevant cost)? Trying to do it directly gives me "'Spell_Cost' is not a member of 'System.Data.DataTable'.,
how can I disable the start menu! Or completely shut down the entire "explorer" in Windows Windows Mobile 6.1, so that users can not go out of my program.I have try [URL], but then Windows Mobile 6.1 hang.
I have got a surprise when my app did not work as I expected when I started it from the Windows Start Menu. I explain: When starting the program from the application directory, it works fine, because the "Application Path" property gives the right path to find the access database located in the same directory, BUT, the problems comes when I start the program from the Windows Start Menu. What can I do to solve this?

But although this works, it does not execute my VB code in the code behind page so I am a little confused where to go here.
- I have a VB.Net 2005 Project for which I've created a Setup Project. - In my Setup Project, I've added a shortcut on my Start Menu, that points to my Application. - After deploying it, all works great.
- One of my users chooses to *copy* the shortcut from the Start Menu into their Desktop.
- I then create an upgrade for this Application. Again, the deployment works great. They can start my application from the Start menu.
- They double-click on their icon in the Desktop and they get a popup: Title of the message box: Problem with Shortcut Description of the message box: (X) The parameter is incorrect.
The shortcut's Target, is blank ( which I believe is the problem ).I'd love to be able to specify an actual [TARGETDIR]myApp.exe type of string as the shortcut's target in my Setup Project, but I can't do this.Instead I have to point it via UI, to my Target Application ( which I'm assuming is resolved at install-time ). The problem with this is that it appears that the shortcuts get re-evaluated every time you re-install / upgrade the application. Since my previous version is technically not installed anymore, my shortcut gets invalidaded, even though the target path is still the same and I haven't changed my executable's file name.
i just got visual studio 2010 professional edition and it automatically opens up C++ i need it to open up a menue where i can choose visual basic or c++ just like at my college.
I've built a couple of Apps successfully, but having published them to a Network Folder, Non-Admin Users can't install them themselves because the Install attempts to create an Entry in the Start Menu. There may be other Security issues (I need 4 of the permissions included if I publish it as a Partial Trust Applications, which I think affect this) after this point that I'm not aware of, but yeah, it fails when trying to create a Start Menu item -
+ Access to the path 'C:Documents and SettingsJameOStart MenuProgramsMynas' is denied.
I think excluding the right is just part of the SOE, but is there some way I can create this and have it NOT create a Start Menu item, haven't been able to find any?
What must I add to the deployment project so that when the user clicks Start>All Programs>My icon, my program runs. Now the explorer comes up pointing to the application directory.
I want to be able to click a button on my application and the start menu appears where I've clicked. This (if possible) will replace my shell.exe. I know that with EmergeDesktop, you can show the start menu by right-clicking the desktop. How do you do that?
I have a "menubar" of sorts on my aspx page (jsddm). The items appear when the mouse hovers over the top-level menu item, and disappear when the mouse leaves. When I hit F5 on my virtual machine it works great (my vm is running Win 2003 server and using IE 8.0.6001.18702, also runs VS2008).However, when I publish it (hosted in IIS on the same VM) and try to view it from my regular machine (Win 7 with IE 8.0.7600.16385) the little buggers won't work properly.
