View 5 RepliesI have seen that unsigned .net applications will not run on most college networks and as part of a school applications i am trying to let these applications run on a protected network. The app is written in VB 2008 and is signed strongly.
View 1 RepliesI have created an application that will run several other Engineering applications from within it.
I have my main form which will have a button on it for each application that has to be run. All the other projects are complete and have their respective '.EXE' files, which I have added to the main project.
I have coded one of the buttons to start an application, this is as follows;
Private Sub btnCoordsCalc_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnCoordsCalc.Click
Process.Start(My.Computer.FileSystem.CurrentDirectory & "Hole_Coordinates_Calculator.exe")
End Sub
This method works OK and does start the application. So my question is; Is this the correct way to do it, or should I import the whole project into my main project?
i am a casual user of visual basic express 2008 and use Vista Home Edition Ive been using it for a while now, with no problems at all. Recently i started to take a look a WPF in my apps, again no problems.(visual basic express ran fine, debugging ran fine & finished apps ran fine)
However for some reason (and all of a sudden) i keep getting errors and none of my apps will start up.
The errors are:vshost.exe has stopped working (I get this when visual basic express starts)PresentationFontCache.exe has stopped working (I get this when visual basic express starts a wpf app)
(Application Name) has stopped working (I get this when running finnished apps)I've tried all the usual methods (Reninstalled VBE & .Net3.5)I cant see why it has stopped working all of a sudden?
I have created a main application form that has buttons that start up various other applications.
Following advice on here from a previous post, I have imported all the files of each separate application into the main application.
There will be times when the user wants to run more than one of these applications at the same time. I know you can just import the '.EXE' file of each app, and you can then run several at a time. But because I have all the files without the .EXE, you can only run one at a time, you have to close one app to start another.
My question is simply; Do I have to import the .EXE file of each app, or is there some code I could put in my main form that will allow me to run more than one app at a time? (the reason for having all the files of each app is so you can make any alterations without having to open each app separately).
The code below is a typical code for one of the applications start buttons, all the buttons codes are the same, apart from the app name, the buttons are imported, so not standard buttons.
Private Sub btnCoordsCalc_ClickButtonArea(ByVal Sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles btnCoordsCalc.ClickButtonArea
Dim frm As New frmHoleCoordinateCalculator

I'd like to ask assistance for the following scenarios below:
1. I want to check whether certain applications are already running or not.
2. The applications i need to check are the ff:

d. MS Project
e. MS Powerpoint
3. If any of these are running, the window title of that application will be filled-in in a listbox.
I have created a simple windows forms application. I would like to be able to connect to that running application and view certain properties from a seperate windows form application. In VB6 I would have run the first application and then called GetObject to connect to the instance. Does anybody know how I could do this in .Net. I'm guessing I'd have to use reflection to get a list of applications running and then somehow connect to them but I'm not sure how to do this?

Using any version of .NET how do you find out which zone a particular share is classified under. I am having a problem identifying if a share where my referenced dlls reside is in the "intranet zone" or "internet" zone relative to some user machine that is running my .NET application. I suspect this is a problem because I am having a problem accessing referenced dlls from a share on some machines but not others. How can I tell which zone .NET is classifying that share in so I can adjust permissions accordingly?

I need to communicate between multiple applications (one server and multiple clients) in the LAN. While googling I came across 3 concepts (TCP/IP, Named Pipes and WCF). I also understand WCF needs lot of study for a starter like me. I need to have one (server) application running on one machine, the values generated by it should be displayed immediately on the other (client) application which will be running on multiple machines in a LAN. Also when the user pauses the process from the client application, it should pause the process on the server application.

I need to automate the installation of 3 different applications and I need a good starting point.
From what I've been reading, APIs seem like the way to go. But, if I can, I'd like to keep it to managed code.
I've checked with the manufacturers to see if they had any available APIs that could allow me to do the automation, but they have none
What do you all think is the best approach? Is there any .NET methods to assist me? Or do I have to go with APIs and unmanaged code?
I'm thinking of creating some applications that will process search and storage requirements.
I want these to be separate applications - so that I could eventually move them to different servers for scalability.
What methods are available for me to have these app's communicate with each other?
I didn't know where to post this question so I hope I put it in the right forum...I am not new to Visual Basic, however I am definitely not an advanced user.

Or, I am looking to make an application that would allow me to do little things on my computer like disable my track pad if I have a mouse plugged in. How would I build something that could interact with windows (or iTunes) like that?
