I'm using a barcode reader which emulates a keyboard with swedish layout. I'm using RegisterRawInputDevices to create a lowlevel hook, catching windows messages and checking which device that sent the keyboard input. If it's the barcodereader, I would like to store the input. I receive the key input one by one in this class - how do I translate this into a string? If the character to be sent is an #, then the keys sent are Shift+3.

I'm developing a relatively quick-and-dirty approach to copying some files over. The situation is that I have a point on the network where a master directory is located. This directory includes the official directory structure as well as all official files. The user's local machine should have a place in their C:Program Files directory that has the exact same directory structure.
If it doesn't, the application should create it and copy files over based on the network master. If the user's local machine does have the appropriate folders in place, then any newer files found in the network master directory should be copied over to update the user's local files. It seems to me that this would require knowledge of the root directories up to the point of the network master and the same for the local directory.
At first glance, this looks to be a bit more complicated to accomplish than I was thinking it should be. Are there any shortcuts to using say the Directory/DirectoryInfo, File/FileInfo classes, etc that would allow this to be accomplished? I'm trying not to overcomplicate it as I need to get something out pretty quick. But the answer just doesn't seem to be showing itself.

View 4 RepliesI have a program which when you press a button it minimises to a notifyicon in the system tray then you right click to bring up a contextmenu which allows it to be maximised again. What I want to do is add a shortcut, ctrl+shift+P for example so when that's pressed the program maximises again. But at the moment the only shortcut I can get to work involves right clicking the notifyicon before it works?
View 4 RepliesHow would I run an executable with arguments like you can add to a shortcut? Such as:
"C:Program Files (x86)Steamsteamappscommonarma 2arma2.exe" -window
I want to create a program where I can select these arguments from a list, press a button, and away you go, without having to type them yourself.
Is there any way other than creating a shortcut and then running it?

I need to capture what keys the user presses and put it in a textbox. However, I need to capture multiple combination. For instance, if the user presses (and briefly holds) SHIFT and 1 (number one) the text box should say "SHIFT + 1." I also want "real time" capturing, meaning as the user presses the keys the value changes.

So I'm getting annoyed with this ffriend of min that keeps on asking for code off me for a VB assignemnt. Now I'd like to give him some code, but not the right code, (play a joke on him...he...he..). So thats the reason I'd like to write a infinite loop program for Internet Explorer. Would such Visual Basic program be possible?
I'm not going to write anything epic, but probably just the event handler to a button that keeps uploading internet explorer on a infinite loop after clicking. I know morally, this is wrong. I would rather be an ass than a lazy bastard.

I'm trying to build an application that when I press a keyboard shortcut, say CTRL + ~, if the window is minimized to the system tray it is displayed.
I have seen a few programs do this and have always wondered how to do this, but haven't had the opportunity to do learn it until now and I really don't know if its something simple or complex.
I'm creating a shortcut with my application, and its working successfully, except that the "Target" line is being cut off. Not all the arguments are listed. When I run the target application of this shortcut using process.start and these arguments, it runs fine. Is this simply a limitation of the "Target" textbox? Is it simply not displaying all the arguments, or is it functionally limited in this way?EDIT: I have determined that it is simply not displaying the full string, but seems to work correctly. I would still like to fix this somehow, but if not, not a big deal.There are 259 characters in the textbox, including spaces. Doesn't seem like a significant number to me.Here is the code, but it doesn't really matter, it is working fine:

I just have a question about creating a shortcut to my programs path. The problem I have is the program has to run from a Mapped drive.
Example of how the shortcut should look.
Target: R:appapp9app9Filesmyapp.exe @app.ini
Start in: R:appapp9app9Files
So here is the question if the mapped drive path is different every time depending on how the user maps the share how can I tell VB to find the path to myapp.exe ?
I have an vb.net application. For this application there are 4 users. so for this 4 users different user names will be there Also users will have the different shortcut icons(from the base exe they created 4 shortcut and renames themselves.) As soon as they click on ok button in login form i am storing the details in registry. if they restared the application, login form will show the last user name(which is stored in registry). Here the requirement is user1 should not get user2 username when he login. Here I have to store the login information of every users in registry separately and if user1 is clicking the shorcut of my application(i.e clicking on shortcut of MyApp.exe) then he should get his details. Here i can differentiate by using which shortcut icon is clicked. Based on that name i can say this user is trying to log and i have to show his user name in login form username textbox.[code]...
