VS 2010 : Start Download In Another Form?
May 26, 2011
I've made a download manager, which made out of several form.I have a problem with the first and second form, they are the mainly forms.The first is the main window. It contains the ListView, where you see the downloads, and buttons and etc.The second window is the window you insert the download link and press to download the file.I made everything, but when you press on the start button in the second window, it closes (as I wrote it to) and doesn't start the download.To check if it starts or not, I made a timer, which starts when the download begins, and it should show the seconds in a cell on the chart.It doesn't start it.I used this two lines to start download (the are in the button1_click in the second window):
Form1.download = New WebClient
Form1.download.DownloadFileAsync(New Uri(TextBox1.Text), Options.TextBox1.Text + "" + "123.exe")
Download is a public event and webclient.
Textbox1 is where the link is (direct link - if you put it in the adress in the browser, it starts downloading the file). Options.Texbox1 is the path (another window)The code of showing it in the listview is:
Form1.listview.Items(Counter).SubItems.Add(e.ProgressPercentage + " %")
Counter is an Integer that raise in 1 every click in the second form (to be able to make another row, for multiple downloads.

Here's what I currently have:
[Code]...
I've commented out various things to limit it to specifically this command (example, I can swap mklink out with notepad and it works fine). The command runs fine from a DOS window, but can't be found when I use it this way. I also tried using the SHELL command just to test and I get the same results. No idea why it can't be found, as like I said it executes from the command prompt just fine.

How can I get my application to load the Sub Main at the start rather than loading a form on start up.
I have tried declaring 'Public Sub Main' on my forms and in some modules, yet in my project properties, it is not one of the options.

I have made my application to start automaticly when windows start (registry ../currentversion/run/appname + path). In this mode the application start minimized and an little icon appear in the notification icon area. With this icon you can maximize the app or exit it.If you exit the app and start it again using the Menu (Start/programs etc) than the application start in minimized mode (and in this case I would like to have it in normal mode) because the setting autostart is still true.Is there a way you can detect when the application start when windows startup using the above registry or when people click on an icon in the programs menu (or desktop)?

I have a program that uses two forms. The program opens to the Main form, and the user can navigate to the other form from the Main form through use of a button. Here's the way I've currently written it: When the Main form loads, it declares and instantiates the other form during the load procedure. When the user presses a button, the second form is displayed by means of the ShowDialog method. On the second form, there is a Return to Main Screen button which closes the second form, bringing the user back to the Main form.
So, here's the structure of the code:
Code:
Public Class frmMainForm
Dim frmSecondForm As New SecondForm
Private Sub btnSecondForm_Click(blah, blah, blah) Handles blah, blah, blah
[CODE]...
Here's my reasoning: Originally, I wrote the code so that a new instance of the second form was created every time the button was pressed. The problem was that whatever data was displayed on the second form, previously, was lost when the user returned to it a second time. Since the user would be switching back and forth between these forms, frequently, I needed that data to persist.
What is the best practice for accomplishing this:
1) Declare and instantiate the second form on program start, as I have done, and use the button simply to show the form?
2) Declare and instantiate the second form each time the button is pressed but maintain the variables on the Main form and pass them ByRef to a custom constructor for the second form? Is this even possible?
3) Something else?

I am using the code below to download an image from the web. (Please don't say there are easier ways, i know that but i want to use this way) The problem is, is that i think the script is going trough all the 1000000 bytes defined. If i use less than this, the image sometimes comes out half done (like the bottom is gray) and if i use more i get a memory exception. Is there a way to use precisely enough? (So just as much as the image is?)
Function FetchURL(ByVal SomeURL As String, ByVal Referer As String, ByVal downloadto As String) As String
MsgBox(downloadto)

How can I download a file from my website, put it in the Application.StartUpPath, Delete the old file, and then run the new one that I just downloaded?
Also, the old file and the new file should have the same name (demo.bat), so will windows automatically replace the old one with the new one, or will I have to program it to do that?
