VS 2008 Getting 32/64 Bit Info For Shelled Process?
Oct 30, 2009
So I transitioned over to Win 7 64 bit, and am starting to incorporate it into my program. I understand that My.System.FileSystem.SpecialFolders.ProgramFiles will resort to x:Program Files if the host system is 64 or 32 bit. However, if the host is 64, and the program is 32 bit, one would need to acess x:Program Files (x86).
My question is this:How can I test an executable to see if it is 32/64 bit, and then apply the proper program folder?

I'm currently making a Computer Cleaner, my program launch's rundll32.exe's to clean IE's history.
Like to clear the add-on settings I would put:
Shell("RunDll32.exe InetCpl.cpl,ClearMyTracksByProcess 4351")
But I need to wait for it to wait before letting it to go on to the next thing like clear cookies, which would be: Shell("RunDll32.exe InetCpl.cpl,ClearMyTracksByProcess 2")

I have a 32 bit application that shells a second application that can be 32 or 64-bit depending upon the computer it's running on. I only want one instance of the second application to run at a time, and I need the first application to prevent the second from being launched more than once. I want to be able to use GetProcessesByName to obtain the running processes. This seems to work fine. It's when I attempt to obtain the module data to find out what folder the second application was run from that things fall apart.

I know the old command of Shell ("C:/program.exe"), however.. when I do this, it brings the application minimized from my program.
A. How do I get the shelled application to gain focus and maximize?
B. Is there a way to open an application within a vb form? Such as.. playing solitaire in a vb program?

2 - Saves the server XML file it into a folder separate from the root folder of the application.3 - Deletes the local XML file in the root folder of the application.4 - Copies the server XML file to the local folder of the application.5 - Opens the application.6 - Closes the updater.Now when the application opens, it reads this XML file in the local folder. When I run it stand alone, it works fine and can find this XML file. However, my problem is when the application is opened by the updater, it can't read the XML file in the local folder. I check for this file doing File.Exists(XMLfilename) and it returns false but like I said, if I close the application and reopen it it works fine.
I'm thinking that for some reason the updater is "locking" this file so my other process can't read it? I can't close the process before I open the original application so I'm not sure what's happening here. My Update Folder is the users ApplicationData folder and the root directory of the application is in the Program Files folder.
This is my code in the updater:
Dim ImageDir As DirectoryInfo
Dim fi As FileInfo

Whats happening is I run the code below and get the following error "The system cannot find the file specified". I've read that with UseShellExecute set to false that you can't use WorkingDirectory.
Dim Password As String = "password"
Dim SecureStringPassword As New System.Security.SecureString
For Each c As Char In Password

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).

I am working on a media player, and I would like to setup a local playlist feature. I am using a single ListBox and its "Display-" and "Value-Member" properties. The display is the song's Artist and Name, and the value is the song's file path (i.e 'C:UsersUSERMusicetc.').To write the file path to the .txt file, I believe I can use the following code:[code]

I am trying to do is fill out a form with certain info, put the info into an array, and write it to a listbox using loops, arrays, and maybe a function if I need one. This is for VB2010 and here is what I have so far... I think there are ways to make it shorter but I cannot figure it out.... maybe just brain dead from all the coffee I have been drinking!

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:
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
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.
