Just wondering what is the simplest way to send data between ALL instances of my app on the SAME windows login on a single machine - I do not want to use anything that opens a port as i don't want there to be any chance of having it blocked by a firewall
View 3 RepliesI've got a curious problem that I can't crack. I have 2 applications, app A and app B. Application A runs continuously doing various things. On the same machine I have application B that runs infrequently at random. I need for application B to tell application A to do something. Both are vb.net apps that I've written and can tweak to make this work. I can't figure out how to get app B to communicate with app A while app A is already running?

I need to be able to send keycode keys.apps (windows context menu key) to an application. Surely if I can detect the keypress, there's a way to send the keypress, right?
What I'm doing is having a 3rd party app save a screenshot and the only way to have it do so is through its right click context menu.

View 2 RepliesWe are about to have a situation where our application needs to accept/give data to another application. Both applications are residing on the same machine.Two approaches being talked about are using a local web service that will do this or using files that will be used to share all of this data.
View 3 Repliesis there as simple way to pass data between 2 apps? it seems DDE support this, but vb.net 2010 seems not support DDE anymore. in my program, I need launch another exe, then wait the exe finish, and get the export data.
both apps are in the same solution. one method I can think of is: writing the data into a xml file, then load it from the main exe when the second exe is done.is there an easier way to do this?

I'm doing an application where I open a specific process. And after opening that process I need to send data to him like username and password.
[Code]...
This is the short instruction:
1) Make a single HTTP-POST request to the following URL in XML format.
[URL]={password}&user={username}
2) The xml form field that is posted should be named "createorder".
I don't get the last part with naming the xml form field. What the xml form field means (stands for) in this context?
I need to send data back to my Apache web server so it can be updated in it's MySQL database, I've looked at NuSOAP as it's written in PHP but man that's hard. I'm lost, is there a more simply way to send it back? even to call a webpage and send data into it?
View 4 RepliesI have a large class that I built to act as a TCP server for one of my silverlight applications. When a user connects it stores the tcp client into a table for later communication. The problem is that when I send data, with more than one client connected, it loops through both open TCP Clients but some how sends the data twice to the same client.... the other tcp client never receives his data. This isn't a logic issue as I can step through the code and see that it is clearly taking each individual TCP client out of the table and sending it the data. They all use the same port... could that be the issue? And if so how do I make it so that it can connect on one port then transfer to another? I have tried using different computers for connecting but still the most recently connected client receives all of the packets of data.

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).
View 4 RepliesI wanna send POST data to the current web page viewed in my webbrowser. It's for logging into a page so the fields are "Username" and "Password". And then I might have to make it press the "Log in" button?
EDIT: It was easier than I thought when you don't need to do it silent in the background.
PHP
WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementById("username").SetAttribute("Value", txtPassword.Text)WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementById("password").SetAttribute("Value", txtPassword.Text)
Now I just need to figure out how to press the submit button
I am facing problem in asynchronous socket communication.
1)I wanted to perform connect(from client to server) operation on enter button and send the data whatever client want to send and disconnect from server. And again client should get connect to server whenever client wanted to send data. this is the mechanism.
i.e how to reuse the socket.
2)Again Server should able to send the data to client.

View 4 RepliesWhat I want to produce is a form with about 20 text box's on it that are linked to a timer. That is easy, what isn't easy for me is how to get the data in a loaded form from access to another VB app. (timer form will be limited to one instance)
I have an access database which copies a string to clipboard and then opens a vb app. I have a button on that app which captures the clipboard text and moves it to an empty field starting a timer (lots of fields, keeps searching till it finds an empty field).What I want to know is: can access talk to a vb form that is already loaded and start a function?ORIf access can't talk directly to a vb app, can vb apps talk to each other and swap data (not just keystroke macros eithre)?
I can get access to copy text to the clipboard, launch a VB program that grabs the text in the clipboard and starts a timer, but can I get that VB app to talk to a second application?EDIT: I should add that VB doesn't need to talk to any tables in access, just what is in the clipboard.
EDIT: Tried to make 2 instances of the same app talk to each other using my.settings but it didn't work.
Could I make them talk to each other through a file other than my.settings file OR make the my.settings file absolute regardless of how many instances?
I would like to determine what apps are running on the computer. Not sure where to start.
While we are at it, is there any event that triggers that indicates that a new application has been started? Basically I am trying to log what applications are running on the application while my VB application is running.
I need some advice here, i have several little applications that i want to be small modules (don't know if it's the right name), in one Main application.I know that i can do this in several ways (add the code, call the exe), but i was looking to guidance for the best way / pro way.
I was thinking in creating DLLs for each one, and after putting the DLLs in one folder inside my Main Application instalation, it recognizes all the DLLs in that folder and create the appropriated menu for the DLL with the options defined inside. Kind off add-in, this may help me in the future if i need/want to add other apps/DLLs.I already seen something like this in the web, but i don't remember where or what should i write in the google to get what i want...

View 1 RepliesI am using VB 2008 to develop apps working with Access. With this IDE I can compile my apps as x86 . Then runs fine under 64 bits Windows 7 and Vista Systems.
First question:but if I run this app under XP 64 bits, will run fine too?
second question:the apps developed with VB 2003 (these work with access too ..."jet oledb"). How I can compile as x86? I have not seen this option like VB2008.
I would like to know if its possible to show up a form in front of all other opened apps . Exemple : myapp.exe (is under of all those application) internet explorer , photoshop , windows live messenger. On event (for exemple on new message recived) myapp.exe will show up all over other forms.
View 3 RepliesI'm developing a shell (think LiteStep or SharpE) for Windows using Visual Basic .NET, and I have reached the point where I will need to get into theming other windows that doesn't run inside the shell itself.Modifications I will need to do is to change their title bars - probably using some kind of API call - to match the design I've integrated into the shell itself, if that is even possible. Having Aero on windows running in a shell that doesn't even look like Aero at all isn't very pretty.) Is there a chance I might be able to do this, or will I have to use a 3rd party application and/or develop my own little programming language for shell-specific applications (which would be a pain)?
