I don't get an exit.out file. There's a delay so it's clearly doing it. Obviously the same line from an actual command prompt does work! And I get an exif.out file... Any idea how I can shell that command off and get an output file?
I have a visual basic .NET application that starts up a command prompt window using the following method:[code]The bat file then goes on to start up an application, which has a lot of output to the command prompt.I was wondering if there was any way to pipe the output of the bat file to a visual basic control. I am trying not to modify the bat file, if I can help it.
I have a VB.net program in which I call the Shell function. I would like to get the text output that is produced from this code in a file. However, this is not the return value of the executed code so I don't really know how to.
This program is a service but has access to the disk no problem as I already log other information. The whole service have multiple thread so I must also make sure that when the file is written it's not already accessed.
In the code below - when I try to read the contents of the text file that I've created by using the > in the shell command, I only get the first character of the file - not the whole contents!I've put breaks in the code and checked the contents of the file immediately after the shell command and the file is complete. I can't understand how I'm only getting one character of this text file.
Private Sub myButton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles myButton.Click Dim runEXE Dim path As String = pathTextBox.Text path = Replace(path,"Program Files", """Program Files""")
Currently I am building an application that will do Data Validation on an Excel Spreadsheet.The application will allow a user to load an Excel Spreadsheet in and runs checks on the data. The application needs to export the spreadsheet as a pipe delimited file with all of the fields separated by the character.Currently I have written an Excel Macro that will export it as a Text File then delimit it and save the text file as a .ps1 file. I cant seem to figure out how to write this same code in VB instead of VBA.I am currently using Visual Studio 2010.Here is the code for my Macros that work fine but I need it in the application and not on the spreadsheet.
Now i'm coding for a project in VB.net that allow user to browse to text files (i am done), after that i have to import this text file into access.
The problem i have to import a pipe delimited file (it is: #), that '#' help to distinguish each filed.
Example: my text file is: #BC2323#23241#12345. This mean that: There are 3 fileds in it: BC2323; 23241; 12345.
There is my coding for browse any text file:
Private Sub btnBrowse_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnBrowse.Click Dim alltext, lineoftext As String OpenFileDialog1.Filter = "Text files (*.txt)|*.TXT"
So i'm new to working with vba in access and i'm having trouble getting this code to work. What it is suppose to do is take a selected text file and read the original file into a list box. Then there is a second button that when pressed will convert the text file from a pipe delimited file into a tab delimited file and then show the changed file into a new listbox.

I'm going to attempt to make a shell replacement for the Windows default shell: explorer.exe. I'm not sure if its possible using Vb.Net, but I can't seem why not. My end goal is to use a custom made shell for a Windows Preinstallation Environment instead of the default command prompt. I plan to use a 3rd party program to compile the program with the .NET Framework. Otherwise, it wouldn't work because Windows PE does not support the .NET Framework.

its working if they are on the same folder,i want to do is make the batch file as a resource file so that i can run it even not in the batchs folder?
I'm just getting started in VB.net using vb.net 2010 . I thought what I had left to do today was simple but not to be.I am simply trying to open a zip file that the user has selected.No mater how I have tried to send the filename (with quotes added, chr(34) & selfilename, set permissions, confirm file is found) I get Error 53 File Not Found.
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Dim SelFileName As String Dim ReturnValue As Boolean SelFileName = ListBox1.SelectedItem 'Contains the full path and filename
Here's an example code so you can understand my problem:
Dim test1 As String Dim test2 As String Dim test3 As String
[code]....
shell.Run("""testProgram""test1 test2 test3 test4") 'I know this is wrong.My problem is in the last line. I want the contents of the strings to be printed, not the names of the strings, and I don't know how to do that.

If I use the shell command: notepadID = Shell("C:\WINDOWS\system32\notepad.exe", AppWinStyle.MaximizedFocus)When note pad opens I want to control the fileopen box. I can use the SendKeys.SendWait("%(FO)") to get the box opened but then how can I control the initial directory and the file type filter? I would much rather open the fileopen box in code and control it that way. How can I use the code below to control the fileopen on a process that the shell command opened up? [code]
I'm trying to use the Shell to have my application call an external application but its not working...I don't understand why. I get the following error: 'System.windows.shell' is a namespace and cannot be used as an expression!
Heres my code....any ideas what I'm doing wrong. Its got to be a simple...stupid error.

Looking for a basic UDP Pipe or redirector. Should of course be able to see both client 2 server and server 2 client data.Here is what I tried but it fails because I don't know when to call which Receive..Say I call
data = serverUdpClient.Receive(sender)
Then I have to reroute this, so I call this
clientUdpClient.Send(data, data.Length)
[CODE]...
Pretty much the code flow is all fucked.. because it's socket is blocking. When I started working on UDP.. all examples say stay away from non-blocking as it's too advanced for newbie's trying to work with networking sockets.. I find that statement wrong.. the other way around!.
Public serverUdpClient As System.Net.Sockets.UdpClient Public clientUdpClient As System.Net.Sockets.UdpClient
Sub runProxy()
[CODE]...
Also tried this.. doesn't work properly.
While True If serverUdpClient.Available > 0 Then data = serverUdpClient.Receive(sender)
I have a perplexing problem. I have written a DB App using SQL Express 2005 as the back end and Visual Studio 2005 Standard VB.Net as the front end. I have a master DB that needs to import from an external database from another SQL Express server. I detach the DB from that server and attach it to my server. I import the data I need, close all connections to the import DB and try to drop it from the server since it is no longer needed. Yet one active connection remains so I get a drop error. To get around this problem, I set the import DB to single user with roll back immediate and then drop the database. However, when my application tries to access the Master DB I get the follwong error
A transport-level error has occurred when sending the request to the server. (provider: Shared Memory Provider, error: 0 - No process is on the other end of the pipe.)
I have an application, that I have integrated into Windows Shell, for this example I will use Notepad. You can right-click a file on the desktop and select 'Edit with Notepad', this launches(if I am not mistaken 'NotePad %1') notepad, and opens the file right away for editing.For my application I need this to get the file name, so basically I would right click on my application, and it will run and have the filename for me to use inside the application.
I know the "Process.Start" function, but it creates a new object of the cmd shell which terminates itself when the Python script is at its end. How can i open the original Windows Command Shell so that the Python file can run to its end without the box getting closed?
I'm looking for a UDP Proxy aka PIPE in any .NET langauge VB.NET or C#..I searched all over google and cannot find any example of a UDP Proxy in .NET language.. best I could find in TCP.. and I know how TCP proxy works.. built a bunch of them.. but now it's time to build a UDP Proxy and it doesn't seem to function well..
We are attempting to run a batch file that will result in a submission to a help desk ticket system. When we run the batch file from command line on our W2003 platform, it works successfully. When we run the same file, called from our vb program, using shell or process info, it does not. With shell, we can see the batch file being called, but it is not resulting in update to the help desk ticket system. The vendor of the system believes it is a security issue. We are signed on as Administrator while running this. We set security permissions of cmd.exe to include Batch, per KB867466. What else should we be doing or looking at?
We have installed on our vista system winzip: WinZip Command Line Support Add-On Version 2.2.We are using vb2008 and want to run wzzip.exe from the shell function. "C:Program FilesWinZipWZZIP.EXE" -m d:my.zip d:info*.*
For a few files it's working great but when the d:info has a great number of files, only the wzzip dos screen is visible and the program don't goes further. Does someone has experience with this problem and has a solution?
Shell(Application.StartupPath & "myfile.txt", vbMaximized Focus)The code above shows the error that the file does not exist. But it exists. I tried the same code for an .exe file it works great.!
I have a lot of Microsoft SQL Backup files. The application should restore each backup-file with
RESTORE DATABASE {0} FROM DISK = '{1}' WITH REPLACE
Then I fill another database with some data from the restored database and drop the restored database with
DROP DATABASE {0}
If I only restore one backup-file, no problems. The data from this backup is in the new database and the restored database is dropped. But if i use more than 1 backup-file, i get this error:
German:Fehler auf Übertragungsebene beim Senden der Anforderung an den Server. (provider: Shared Memory-Provider, error: 0 - Kein Prozess ist am anderen Ende der Pipe.)English (something like): Error on transportlayer while sending the request to the server. (provider.
