is it possible to make one application send a task to another application and recieve the result from that secondary app?i made a text editor program and i added a scan feature and i made another app that has ocr capabilities.The scanner ability is in my text editor program, the ocr program doesnt scan you have to input an image into it and it will give text result a few seconds later.the prob is alot of times the ocr code uses sooo much memory and crashes when its incorporated with my text editor, but individually each application works fine and doesnt take too much memory. Memory wont be even an issue if the ocr program is standalone so that when it is done decoding image the application can be made to exit. now here is the question, how do i make my text editor send the image to the ocr program and how do i make my ocr program send the text back to my text editor? is it possible? i mean the only way i know off is creating temp files in a certain folder and having a timer on each program that keeps waiting for temp files. That just seems like pretty lame coding to me i was wondering if there's a better way?
I made a application that will find all the cache from Google Chrome.It works but with a problem. The problem is that each OS stores the cache under different folders for example.
Windows Vista stores it at.strUserDir & AppDataLocalGoogleChromeUser DataDefault Windows 7 stores it at.strUserDir & AppDataLocalGoogleChromeUser DataDefaultCache
And Windows XP stores it here.strUserDir & Local SettingsApplication DataGoogleChromeUser DataDefaultCache
So my question is how can i write a code that will work on all of the 3 operating systems.I was thinking of using the Environment method but i'm not sure.

I am trying to make a web application in VB.NET using Visual Studio 2008 that will accept login credentials and compare them with an Access database for authentication/validation. I found lots and lots of examples for how to do this with a Windows Form App, but none with a ASP.NET Web App. tried to modify the steps for a web app but I'm not sure how to make it work. The database connection is good and the query seems to work fine. Here's where I'm having trouble. In the tutorial, he says to use:
01 Private Sub But_Validate_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles But_Validate.Click 02 Private Sub But_Validate_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles But_Validate.Click 03 Dim r = Me.UsersTableAdapter1.ValidateUserNamePassword(Me.Txt_UserName.Text,Me.Txt_Password.Text)
[code]....
No matter what I put in for the username and password (as long as they are valid values) I always get a "success," never a failure. I know my query is working right because I put a gridview on the page and bound it to the result from the query; when I type in a user/pass that is not in the database the gridview is blank, when I type in a correct user/pass the gridview displays that row from the database.
I want to make a program that's constantly running on the background and when I hit a specific combination of keys (example ctrl + alt + A) on any application it does *stuff*.
i'm trying to make an application using ms access database. This application is for our class, simply to enter students data and institutions details. However, i got stuck with combo; here is my question and the application background?
I have a database named "StudentData" with table "StudentDetails" with "RECNO" which is Auto Numbered (and is Primary key) and a number of different fields which accepts Students Name, class, accedemic year and so on.
What i want to do with the RECNO is, i want to make a combobox which will be filled with the record number of the students, when i click on any number from the dropdown list, i want the other fields like the txtName (for students name), txtClass, txtACYear etc to be field with each RECNO they belonged to.

My Visual Studio 2008 seems to be corrupted. I can not use the Windows Forms designer. I get an error about: "Make sure the application for the file type (.vb) is installed." Also, under menu item Tools>Options, it says "an error occurred loading this property page" when I try to look at the options for 'Data UI Customization' under 'Windows Forms Designer'
im trying to make a win form application using visual studio 2008 express edition (which is free to download and install).i have installed a ms sql server 2005 on the local server at LAN. i want to display a combo box values from a table inside a database but i dont know how i can do this with ms sql connection string and where i have to store dat connection string. i have googled around but nothing useful found. where the connection string will be stored and if this form is not on the same computer (where the sql server installed) then wat will happen? the connection string will be changed?sql server is installed at windows server. im trying to make an application which runs on the same network (local i.e. LAN not on web server).
I was thinking I could make a console application that would have a FileSystemWatcher - watching for a .BAT file being created in a folder - and when it sees that file it does a PROCESS.START on it. But I'm seeing that a console app doesn't continue running.
Imports System.IO Module awcWatcher Sub Main() Dim fsw As New FileSystemWatcher("D:ACS DesktopAWCeportingstaging") fsw.NotifyFilter = NotifyFilters.FileName Or NotifyFilters.LastWrite [Code] ..... How would I go about making this wait and then wait again and again and again?
I am trying to stop the following piece of code from taking up too much processing power of the PC by using threads. But I keep getting errors when I use threads:
im trying to make a little application that will read an fps server chat log.the chat logs are plain text files that come in the format :
Billy says: yada yada yada Bob says: mooo
on certain key phrases (which will be user defined) it will reply (also user defined) now my problems. (there are many). most of which stem from not actually knowing any syntax for this language.firstly im suffering something of a huge brain fart with trying to read only the last line. i have it currently reading though the whole file and counting line numbers but then i just hit a wall . what do i do with the line number? i cant find a simple way to stop and come then have it check again after a couple of seconds for a new line? allegedly filestream can seek the end of the file however all my attempts to do anything with filestream have met with absolutle failure.
this is what i currently have for this, and it works to some degree
FileReader = New IO.StreamReader(OpenFileDialog1.FileName) Do While FileReader.Peek <> -1 txtln = FileReader.ReadLine()
[code]....
i have the remnants of both the options ive considered in there, and its almost doing what i need it to . i just have no idea what to put into the last section to make it wait for another line to be added to the text file, or use the linenumber to make it check back from there for more lines. i cant seem to find a wait/sleep/pause so i just dont know.
my other problem is one of file access. i am aware of some properties of filestream that allow for a shared read/write access for other programs . however as i stated before . i have had no success even getting this simple peice of code to work with filestream.
Okay so i made a small code that my application can check for updates onstart time. The problem is that it freeze up the application. How can i make it work faster.
Ive got my application running at startup on my computer. But how can i make my application start up on any machine ? Do i need my app to create a reg key ? Also what path do i use for it to start up on other machines ?
Heres the code im using to start it up on my machine.
Private Sub Form1_FormClosing(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Handles MyBase.FormClosing If CheckBox1.Checked = True Then
I'm currently making a text editor, and I wanted to make my application accept arguments from the command prompt, you know <Directory>myapp.exe <textfile>. How can I do this?
I am trying to create an interface between a third party application which can make use of C/C++ DLLs, but no interface directly to .NET. What I was hoping to accomplish (not sure if possible though), is create a very basic C++ DLL (not .NET), which the third party application would call directly. This DLL would contain a basic method such as "DoSomething()". Somehow, from my .NET application, I want to "listen" to this DLL and "takeover" the DoSomething() method, and then returning the result back to the DLL, which will in turn return the result back to the calling third party application.
I don't even know if this is possible because I'm sure I would somehow have to get a hold of the memory space of the DLL as initiated by the third party application. Also, it seems that creating a managed DLL does not work, based on feedback from other individuals who have tried this.
Ive been working recently on a chat. Ive been using FTP to comunicate through both forms but it need to constantly download the new data and make the application freeze. Even with a Backgroundworker. So my question is : is there a way to keep a constant connection between the form and the host? And not LAN ,I mean that doesnt need to be on the same router.
I use SetParent to make an external application a "child" of my Main .Net application. This works fine.What I need to know is why can't I use Me.MDIChildren(0)I thought that using SetParent would increase the number of children by 1, thus allowing me to reference it with the above code, but it shows there are no children in the array.I have been trying, without luck, for 2 days to try to maximize an external app being displayed in my app. I can get it to display, but I would love it if it could Dock to the same size as its container (a panel)
I am making a exe application and i am using mysql as my database. So the thing is, when i change to a new computer, i need to change the file path for the database connection string to that computer.
like below:
Dim connectionString As String = "Data Source=----------SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=Flexlink;" & "Integrated Security=SSPI;"
i need to change the data source = --------------- SQLEXPRESS to the computer name that i am using for my project.
May i ask is there any method such that the user dont have to go in to the source code to change the computer's name like those normal installer?
Just install and the application will run according like any exe file that we buy.
Okay so basically I want to see if I can make an windows application or just a console application in VB.NET that will verify an MD5 Checksum. I have no idea how to start this out, but I have the ideas of what I'd like to make it.
I have been trying to reference Application.ThreadException in my application to make an addhandler, but I also am using imports growl.connector which has a growl.connector.application method. When I create my addhandler:AddHandler Application.ThreadException, AddressOf ThreadExceptionHandler
And I get "ThreadExecption is not an event of 'growl.connector.application'"
