Open An External Browser Window And Refresh It Inside Application?
Feb 27, 2012We have an existing VB.net application. Upon an event, we need to open a browser window. I'm able to open the browser window like this:
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("http://s3web01/suggestions?item=" + strItem + "&co=" + strOrder)
Upon another event, we need to refresh the browser window with different parameters for strItem and strOrder.
If I call the same code above, it opens a new tab in the browser window. Is there any way to refresh the same browser window that was previously opened?

View 11 RepliesOpen A Console / Command Window When Using VS 2008 Express
Jul 30, 2009I have both the VB and C# versions of Visual Studio 2008 Express. When I run a console application in either version, instead of the console opening in an old DOS style command window like it does in VS 2005, it actually blacks out both monitors attached to my computer and treats the entire screen real estate as the console.Anyone know how to get the app to run in a small command-type window when I run it? It's like the console is running Full Screen. If I set a break point, switch from the IDE t the console and then hit Alt+Enter it switches to the small window that I want, but I still can't figure out how to make the app start with the console that way.I could post a screenshot but it would look like a big black square...no window, no frame, just the inky blackness of frustration.

Createwindowex To Create A Button On An External Window
May 3, 2009I'm using createwindowex to create a button on an external window. I can use Spy++ to see all of the messages the button is sending to the parent window. The problem I'm having is catching these messages from the parent window.I've been trying a lot of different methods, and just when I think one is working, something still isn't quite right. Right now, I am using a hook dll made with c#, and it seems to be working somewhat. It seems like it is a lot more than should be needed for what I'm doing.I originally thought I could just use wndproc to catch all of the messages, but I found that it doesn't catch external windows messages(unless i'm doing something wrong).Is there anyone that can point me in the right direction to create a button on an external window, then catch the messages when it is clicked.

Programmatically Maximize An External Application's Window?
Sep 4, 2009I have an application right now that starts a process, then opens a file associated with that process (system.diagnostics.process.start("WM.exe")), however, the way they save, there is a window within a window. It's like in photoshop cs3 when you have many windows within the big window of the application. Right now I use an api call to findwindow which is the application itself, but within that I need to find the subwindow, of which I know the apptitle, and then I need to set its windowstate to maximized. Does anyone know how this can be done? I think there's a way to hook a handle, but how does one also maximize?
View 1 RepliesVS 2010 Hiding Window Of External Process?
Jan 7, 2012So i want to start an application with my vb.net app and it should start as a hidden process, meaning no window and nothing in the task bar, only in the task manager ofcourse.
This is what i do
Dim fov As New Process
If CheckBox2.Checked = True Then
RichTextBox1.Text = RichTextBox1.Text & vbCrLf & "* - Launching"
fov.StartInfo.FileName = ("test.exe")
[Code]...
This does not work.. I have also tried the "fov.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = True" command which does not work either. I can live with a solution that would start the window minimized instead of totally hidden.

View 4 RepliesRetrieve HTML Of External Javascript Popup Window?
Aug 13, 2011I was offered this interesting scenario by a visitor of my site and have been trying a few approaches, but not seeming to get it quite right. I have a Form with a WebBrowser control (or an AxWebBrowser if that works too) and on the page loaded in the browser, is a link that uses javascript to open a new popup window.This popup window I am unable to take "ownership" of and it launches in a new instance of the user's default browser (IE for this scenario). I need to then interact with that javascript popup window which now is not part of my application. If I needed to set a value of an input box on that form, how would I accomplish that if I can't "interact" with the form?
View 1 RepliesSend Username And Password To External Popup Window
Jun 2, 2010I have an interesting issue, I'm trying to automate a data retrieval process.Currently the user goes out to a secure web site and inputs his/her username and password and then selects the ok button, they then proceed to the location where the data is located at and do a copy and paste. I have thought about using the SendKey method from VBA but everything I see says it's not reliable.I believe I have the section after the sending of the login/password completed. For the life of me I can't figure out how to automatically input the username and password and then select the "OK" button. Before anyone asks, no can't view the source code so I can't get the ID field, there is no way for me to view the source code at all I have tried multiple different options all with no luck.
