I wanted to simulate the AutoRun it but I wanted to know what I use to write programs that quickly and be more comfortable.I want to use the VS but I want to quickly load it up AutoRun take'm.
After reading a few things on google, is there a way to just go to x,y from within the form, not the whole window display itslef? I have some functions i found online. I want to go to x,y cords from within my form, and move the mouse to it, and simulate a left mouse click. When i click my button to move the mouse, it puts the mouse way outside my form
How do I check to see if a user has Powerpoint 2007 or 2010 in the autorun for a CD, and download a reader if he does not? Can this be done in a VB script, or do I need to write a program to do this. My initial attempts tried using Fileinfo, but VB script does not recognise this class. This needs to be run on any user computer.
I'm trying to create an autorun menu with several button, each button must load a different exe file. This Autorun menu will be for a cd or dvd. and start up when you insert the cd or dvd.
I Used this code: shell "C:wmpwmpinstall.exe (just a example file)
But the problem is I want to put wmpinstall.exe on the cd to. and open it from there.
How to make the file location to the Cd-rom drive. because cd-rom drive can be D: or E: to Z:
I've made a simple application to automatically remove autorun.inf from pendrive.at an interval the app runs how many drive is there if it gets a Removable disk it tries to delete autorun.inf file.But i want to optimize it by removing the timer.How to do it ?
I want to create with Visual Basic 2008, where an application via a button on a timer refreshes webbrowers after X seconds, a new web address.url.'I'm trying to create it for weeks but I can not .
I'm not sure if this would be this right place to post this, or even if I should go about trying to do it through my program itself or through the computer's settings on the final EXE file, but anyways, here goes.
I have a synchronization program that syncs my flashdrive to my home computer and (hopefully) my flashdrive to my personal folder on the school computers. What I think would be easiest, though, would be if the program was located on the flashdrive, and would simply "autorun" when I plug it in, instead of having 2 separate instances of the sync program running at school and at home.
Would it be easier (or possible) to code for that from within the program, or with the EXE file's settings?
I'm using Visual Basic 2008 (Windows Applications) and have a webrowser control to access a website. Once loaded the page requests a log on. What code is needed to simulate a log on click?
the html is as follows: <form method="post" action="/index.html" style="display: inline">
i want to users to be able to vote for their favourite soft drink. They will input the names of the soft drinks through the use of an inputbox, the names input are stored in an array. what i would like to do is count the votes given to each soft drink. How would this be done, please provide example code if possible.
p.s. i tried using a listbox and failed.Well during the set up of the program they will input the names of all soft drinks up for voting, and then all the soft drinks input wll be displayed in a list when the voting take place.
I'm trying to do here is get VB to hold a key down until I tell it to stop. Perhaps I'm missing something but I don't understand why this isn't working. This code can hold down shift and so on for as long as I want it too but absolutely refuses to hold down what i need it too (any letter key or numpad key)[code]
Well i've been trying to make something run with a lot less code(and faster) but it seems with SendKeys some things are getting lost(or discarded) by the program, its only the arrow keys as I try & make it complete a pre-defined maze to see how fast it can be completed.
If I use SendKeys("RIGHT 8") for example the maze usually only moves a few times, sometimes maybe only 1.
Also I looked up how to hold a key down/simulate it but it's not working for the arrow keys(untested on other keys).
The only way i've made it work is delays, decently delayed like 200ms & it's a huge maze but if i hold a key manually I can go much faster yet sendkeys method can't go that fast using individual presses this is why I want to simulate a holding down action.
---it must be working xample code I can make it work for my purpose if it works like on button click, etc....but I tried copying full (supposedly working) codes before & they never worked for me/my key, xample cause i've looked & tried hard(with only failing results).
MORE INFO:Also I tried SendKeys.SendWait() which is meant to wait for keystrokes to be processed & that didn't help either so my best guess is the keystrokes are processed but discarded(like a movement delay code that doesn't queue movements but rather ignores extra movements)
I have small web app that generate PDF files as a report. I'm trying to delete those generated PDF files after 10 sec that they are generated. What I want to do is to read a folder with PDF files every 10 sec, and delete all the PDF files inside that folder.I read this post of Easy Background Tasks in ASP.NET. The following code is the VB version.
I wants to be able to simulate mouse clicks on a WebBroswer in vb.net (even when the program in not on top, it will run in the background) How would I do this? I want it to click on a button every one second in the webBrowser.
is there anyone who can tell me how to simulate click on pop up menu? in spy++ the only i got is #32768 (pop up menu) how to simulate click to the first index of the pop up menu. example on windows desktop, when we do the right click there will be pop up menu, right? and i want to choose the "refresh"
How can you simulate keypresses and releases? I know you can essentially hit a key with Sendkeys.SendWait, but how can your code press and hold q, for example? I essentially wish to be able to call something like press("q") and release("q"). The effect would be the same as physically holding them down.
The VB6 codes makes use of an Array of textboxes and lots of the code manipulates the textboxes selecting the target textbox via the index. This is very good because a small amount of code can reference a large number of textboxes simply by changing the index. To do the same in dot net I'd need a load of code for each box or I'd need to create the boxes at runtime.
But.
I was reading somewhere that it's possible to kind of simulate similar behavior by creating a bunch of text boxes at design time with the usual names names like TextBox1, TextBox2 etc and then referring to them in code like this:-
My app is having problems shutting down in a WinXP environment. I thus want to simulate a Windows shutdown in the VB.Net IDE and then debug my code but is this possible?
