View 3 RepliesI am tring to write a batch file to run a DOS program under a GUI as below
My.Computer.FileSystem.WriteAllText(c:convert3.bat", "aften c:movie.WAV c:movie.AC3", False)
When the batch file runs
C:>convert3.bat
C:>aften c:movie.WAV c:movie.AC3
'aften' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
Why the extra data tacked onto the front of the bat file..The below code works but is more lines...
Dim fs As New FileStream(MyFolder & "convert2.bat", FileMode.Create, FileAccess.Write)
Dim s As New StreamWriter(fs)
s.WriteLine(batstring)
s.Close()
Not sure if there is a better way to do this but this isn't working. Just trying to run a batch command "query session" and put it into a text file using "> sessions.txt". When I run this command in a command prompt it works fine and spits the output to the text. I've tried just making the batch file in the same folder and executing that with Process.Start, still empty text file. Tried modifying the loop and no go also
Imports System.IO
Public Class Form1
Dim counter As Integer = 0

I've written a menu for a console application. It has three items. I want to keep the menu displaying until I press 3. How can I do that. My code below -

I understand that I cannot use the System.Console to output information from a Windows Forms application because the standard input, output, and error streams are not run through the console in winforms apps. But I can't seem to find any documentation on where the standard input, output, and error streams are being directed to! Basically, I have a winforms app that accepts command line arguments and can be run in batch mode, however, I just want to direct some feedback to the user based on whatever method they're accessing the program. The app is used to redirect a client-server application from one server to another. In some instances, the user does it by hand (with a mouse), and other times they're doing it in batch mode (using SAS, command shell, VBScript, etc...). In those instances, I'd prefer NOT to use MessageBoxes because it will kill any processing they're doing.

zoren baybayan,A02-0002,2
constatino raguindin,A02-0003,3
this will be on your text file.first run. it will ask the user to enter Employee code which is A02-0001 - A02-0003 then
it will display
Aron Quiray
A02-0001

350
then input a following time that serves as the DTR of the employee for five days note:5 days here are constant. so its much easier to debug.then take note. it must be 24-hr format. 1:00 - 24:00 12:00 - 13:00 are not included on the pay.if the employee or the entered time is 8:00 time in and 17:00 time out. it will return as 8hours only. assuming that the employee has its lunchbreak.hours will going to be save in a separate file which is dtr.

View 5 RepliesI 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.
