VS 2008 Make One Application Send A Task To Another Application / Receive Result From That Secondary App?
Apr 26, 2010
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 have created an application which listens for strings being sent to my pc from a remote unit. I now need to add the function of sending strings back to the remote unit on a button press. I've searched for ages to find a solution but I'm not knowledgeable enough yet with vb.net to solve this solution.
I'm getting the error with the line opensock2 = New IO.StreamWriter(client.GetStream) saying its not connected. So I seem to need to pass the connection from the background worker to the button click, or have it somewhere else in the code to make it accessible. [Code]
In our project we've decided to put an exam generator using vb.net and after generate you can send it to client computer/students. *server computer/teacher will the one who will use exam generator and send it to the client computer/student*student will recieve it and then send it back again to the server computer/teacher*teachers will going to generate an exam depends on the type of exam, so i think im going to make it a wizard type environment
I found some great code on capturing webcam images but the problem is the client PC will need to initiate the communication to this server (click Connect to server IP). This is like 2 way communication.How can i do something like this (door Kiosk system):when a visitor press a button on the LCD that come along a web cam (this will be the server), it will send the signal the client PC that is installed with the application i've created (window form) and pop up the images to the client PC (more like a 1 way communication). This image is captured through the web cam on the server to capture the visotor's image waiting outside of the door. How to do this?I'm really stuck as i'm not familiar with window API programming yet.
1) how to do the mentioned 1 way communication? possible in .NET?
2) how to make my application to be at the tray icon just next to the time displayed on the right bottom corner of the task bar? When a visitor press a button o the server, it will pop up a window form on the client PC showing the image captured via the server's webcam outside of the door.
What I'm trying to do is to launch Powerpoint Wiever 2003 in my secondary screen.I can get a form to launch in the 2nd screen but any programs I launch from that form stary screen.[code]

Anyway, the app works fine, however when the netdom.exe command runs, the command prompt window pops up and obviously disappears when the command has processed. Is there anyway to capture the result from the command and either output this to a log, or stay on screen to be visible?
I am running the netdom command with the following
I have written an application in Visual Basic 2010 that I would like to hide from the Task Manager Application Tab, if possible. It's fine if it is listed in the Processes tab.
The purpose of the application is to allow users to postpone a restart following software update installations that require restarts. The application includes a form the user's must interact with so it can't be permanently hidden from view on the desktop. I am basically looking to mimic the WSUS Windows Update dialog which allows users to postpone restarts.
VB6 has app.taskvisible which is no longer included in VB 2010. I have seen a lot of discussion around this topic but no real solutions.
I am trying to make an app which can send/receive files/pictures. I am trying to make a app which will get a picture of the users screen and send it to me, and display it in a picturebox at a set interval. With this, I will be able to sort of see what someone is looking at without having to have him send screenshots constantly.
Remote assistance does not seem to work for these apps, shows black, but I can make the program already get an accurate screenshot and display it of this program, I just need to know how to make it send it to me and display it to picturebox.
The thing I have been using is the MultiUser TCP chat application off MSDN's website, I don't know if this will work, but I need to make it send somehow and display it.

I have found a simple UDP project at [URL] which is a project written in VB2003. I have imported it into VB2008 Express edition. I have no problems with the send part of the project. I'm able to send messages to internal (eg. 127.000.000.001) and external (in my case the other device has 192.168.0.100) addresses. Now for the receive part... I'm able to receive messagess sent form the same computer (127.000.000.001) but none of the packets are being received by the aplication if sent from an external source.

I got a window form, and I want to send data to another computer or a server over internet after the submit button is clicked. Yes, this is a very "general" question (I cant not ask it in more detail), because I don't have any information how to do that, I google it, and I heard WCF, but I am not sure how it actually can do this job (seem like WCF is related, but still researching).
My application displays a Splash Screen. In the Main form load event , we show another form in which user has to be select something. On the basis of that selection , the main form is loaded.
The scenario in which the main form is not shown in the task bar is :
1. Application runs , Splash screen is displayed.
2. a new window is shown to user to select something. this window comes over the splash screen.
3. Clicks ok on that window.The window is closed . Only splash screen is showing.
4.Now click on the space outside the Splash screen , the splash screen goes in backgound.
5. The main form is loaded. It comes for a moment in task bar but does not stay there. when i do alt+tab , it is there .

I have written an application which uses the Outlook object library to send an e-mail with information from a textbox. I programmed this on Windows 7 and Office 2010, which was a mistake as most of the clients will be using Windows XP and Office 2007. I am getting an error when running the application on Windows XP/2007:
Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook, Version=14.0.0.0 .... etc I understand that this is because I have not loaded the Outlook 12.0 assemblies, however I am having trouble adding the assemblies on my Win7/2010 programming machine. I have downloaded the standalone Office 2007 PIAs however the Outlook 12.0 doesnt appear on the list, and when I try and add just the Office 12.0 I get an error.
is there a way to standardise and make the application work with both 2007 and 2010 outlook machines? I think it is possible, I have read some articles making the application choose the correct version, however cannot figure out how to.
