VS 2008 Can ChkDsk Not Run When PC Is Running
Sep 11, 2009
I'm using the ChkDsk method of the Win32_LogicalDisk Class of WMI.I've read up on the documentation from MSDN. I'm not 100% sure how ChkDsk works, but I want to be able to run it while the PC is running, but I'm not sure that's possible.When I try and run it, I get a Return Code of 1. Which is: Success - Locked and Chkdsk Scheduled on Reboot.Is there some type of parameter I'm missing, or can ChkDsk not run when the PC is running?

Imports System.Diagnostics
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("chkdsk.exe", "C:").WaitForExit()
End Sub
End Class

I'm calling the following method from a button click event to export a datatable to excel. After the export is completed, the excel application object is quit, released and assigned to nothing. But in reality it's not getting released and stays active unless the entire application is closed. So every time the button is clicked for export, a new excel application object keeps on running. The problem doesn't occur if two of the lines from the method below are not used. But I can't omit them as they are really needed. Check the * marked lines.
Code:
''' <summary>
''' Exports data from a datatable to excel.
''' </summary>

I use the 'Process' object to run EXE from my application. It works fine when it run on Windows XP and 2003. When it run on Windows server 2008, it hangs up: the process is stayed in background but never returns. It never goes ahead for the next commands. What could be the reason? [Code]

I'm learning usage of winsock and I've created simple 2 application. Server and client. I'm just working on their connections for now and both them are running perfect on my computer. However, when I copied the client application to my dad's laptop it's not running anymore. It has same OS as my pc (XP Sp 3) and same programs installed on it. I've checked the framework versions and these are installed on the laptop:
-.Net 1.1
-.Net 2.0
-.NEt 3.0
-.Net 3.5 same as mine..
I've copied the dlls ,which are existing in Release folder, to the system32, but it didn't make any sense. Why doesn't the app. running in the laptop? (Not running mean; the app is not opening, I've checked from the task manager, it's opening and closing immediately, I can't see the form) I've add Microsoft Winsock Control v6 (which is inherited from VB6) and named it as winsock.These are all of the client's codes: [code]

I've added a sub main to my project, but no matter where i put it, it never runs.
I've tried in the main form with : Shared Sub Main() with and without the shared word
In a module and in a class. In vb.net 2003 it worked, so that must be some configuration Even with a test like this
Sub Main()
console.writeline("Test")
End Sub

I am trying to run a process that will do a mysqldump from my mysql database. I want to customize some options down the road but I am having trouble running the basic command. Here is what I have to test:
Private Sub btnGo_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnGo.Click
Dim pProperties As New ProcessStartInfo
With pProperties
.FileName = "C:Program FilesMySQLMySQL Server 5.0inmysqldump"
.Arguments = "--user=root -padmin mytestdb> c:ackup.sql"
[Code]...
the exitcode I am getting is "6" and the output it coming back with some information about the mysqldump procedure, but I am not getting anything more. I the backup.sql is not even being created. Has anyone else tried to make an app using mysqldump? Is there somehting I am missing about process.start ?

I need to check if a certain process is NOT running. So until now i've been using a loop and if it doesn't find the process then it alerts me (with MsgBox) however now i realized that the for each loops looks on each process and if that process isn't the one im looking for its gonna give me an alert, that it was not running even when the next process could be the one i need to know about.

I want my program to use the Appacctivate with a process ID because, the window title of the program I am going to work with is changing.
I tried several thing, but I just can't seem to be able to get the processID of any running applications. I googlet it, and there a several code's out there, but I get a Null Reference Error, with all of them.
which gets the ProcessID of a running program? I tried it with process.getprocessbyname ("myApplication") , dunno whether I was on a godd trail, or is there a far easyer way, even for activating windows without the processID.

Is running a PHP script in a Visual Basic 2008 form possible? What I need to do is:
1. Add text boxes that would represent variables of the PHP script.
2. Add a button that would run the script.
Is doing this possible? If yes, can anyone please give me a very simple example of running a PHP script in VB2008?

Is there any better way of copying an application so I would have included all kind of things like the right references? I need to copy this big and ambitious application in order to work with it on different machines. Because all I got is errors that I cant get rid of, and it does not build the application, so I can't work on it. I was trying to reference the right components, it lessens the errors but still no chance to run the app.
Thats the link where I posted the errors: [URL]

the user of my application is able to run a diagnostic tool which is part of my application. This diagnostic tool searches every file on the computer, logs the names, and if the my program is able to then the file will be read.
My program has other uses as well. If the user wants to do something else in my program then i want the diagnostic code to run in the background. I don't want this code to prevent users from using other features of my application since the diagnostic search does take time.
How do i do this? Threading? A background worker? If the anwser is Threading which i am pretty sure it is, how do i set up a thread? My computer has 4 GB of RAM - 2GB & 2GB so i know i am able to do this smoothly.

When you click a button, the program should start op everytime your computer starts, but it must be in the background, so that you wont notice it.

I have created a application that creates a windows schedule task that connects to a FTP server and uploads/synchronize selected files and folders from your computer. After the user has selected all needed information and click continue, a form with a progressbar (Marquee) should appear. The application will then perform different tasks needed for the schedule to be completed. When all needed tasks are finished i want the progressForm to close and the main form will show you a summary of the newly created task.
I run the tasks in the main thread and assign a backgroundworker for the porgressFrom. i have have also tried to run the taks in a backgroundworker.
