Windows Form App Using Console?
Oct 26, 2010
im trying to write a Form app that actually uses the program. However it doesn't seem to be doing anything. I have it to change a few settings but it doesn't do anyhting. I made it beep by using System.Console.Beep so i know its activating the function. Here is what i have.
Private Sub graphics_1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles graphics_1.Click
System.Console.Write("netsh interface ip set address name=""Local Area
[Code].....
It doesnt appear to do any of that! is there a way that i can view the console it is writting to to see whats going on?

I am working on an application that needs to have both a command-line AND windows form interface. I have designed the form, and written a basic console app. The issue comes when I try to display the GUI, as the application is a Console project in VS2008. I do the following:
Dim Apply As Boolean = False
Dim Check As Boolean = False
' Snip.
[Code]....
And the GUI flashes for a second, but then goes away. How do I make the GUI stay up, and wait for input?

I want to create a console application that has a Windows Form inside of it that contains listboxes. I use these listboxes like a database. I want to load the listboxes with filenames and then work with those file names via the console code. I'd like to do this in a console method because I want to pass arugments to it from the command-line. The issue I am having is when I reference db.listbox1.items.add etc., the error I get is:
db is my Windows Form
main is my console code
vars is global variables I use
Error 1 Reference to a non-shared member requires an object reference. C:UsersxyzDocumentsVisual Studio 2008Projectsindexindexmain.vb 105 21 bindex
The code:
Public Sub open_first_file_for_timestamp()
Using fs As New FileStream(vars.working_first_file, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read)
Using fx As New StreamReader(fs)

I'm making program that will copy one file and over-write another to purge data.I have a windows form interface where the files can be selected and want a console application to run this process so it can be put into the PC's startup folder to run on each startup.
The problem is I need to send the file location data to the console app when I choose a save button on the form. Both are part of the same project and referenced but I can't seem to reference any variable from the win form to console app.Also will I see the Console app as a seperate icon in the program files so I can put it on the PC startup?

Well I'm working on a kind of GameGuard for my private server. Ok so, I want to loop a code, I dunno if I should use Console or Windows Form Application...I dont know how to explain but I'll try doing my best to make this understandable. Ok so I want to make something that will loop this code until the console itself is closed. This code below would simply kill the windows name "Cheat Engine" program if its opened.[code]But If I use a console application, How can I make this code loop every 5 second or so? What would I need to add in this simple code to make it loop every 5 seconds and until the console is closed?

trying to print a Form that I created using a VB.Net console application. My console application creates an instance of a Windows Form and fills it with data. I then created an instance of the Print Form class from the Microsoft Power Pack and am trying to get the form I filled with data to print but no matter what I've tried it just prints the command console window.
Dim firstPage As New FrontPage 'Windows Form
Dim pf As New PrintForm 'Print Form Power Pack
firstPage.Visible = True

I have a .Net Console application which displays thousands of lines on the console each minute. I want to convert it to a Windows Service, however I still need a way of viewing these messages. There are far too many messages to write them to the event log or even a standard log file. I was wondering if there were a way to write a systray app that could simply intercept these messages from the service and display them in a console window. I have no need to save older messages, I only need to see current activity.

I created a windows console application because it needs to do some things at windows start up. However, in very rare cases I need to ask the user for some information, so I need to show a form. I created a form and went to my application properties. There I selected Windows Forms application as the application type. I call my form with the .Show method but it doesn't show up.
I expected this, but I have no idea how to solve it.
[EDIT]Just found out .Show does show it but only for 0.00001 seconds. I use showdialog now. Is this the right way to do it?

I'm creating a Windows Console application written in VB.NET and I have a few processes that need to be called only once during the lifetime of the application. If it was an ASP.NET application, I put these in the Appliction_Start method of the Global.asax.vb file. Since there isn't a Global. asax. vb for Console applications, is there an event I could handle that allows me to call my functions before Main is called?

I have a console application where I successfully have added custom menu item in the application's system menu using the Windows API calls. How do I hook into the events to capture the event raised when the user clicks on one of these menus? All my Google results talks about overriding the WndProc method, but this doesn't exist in a console application.

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.
