I was trying to use the sentence
Environment.SetEnvironmentVariable("CLIENTIP", <value>)
but the variable is not created. I used both an string variable and a constant to set the value.
So, how can I do this to work?
I've made a simple program that set environment variables like [code]...
If I close de command prompt then open it again, it's OK.
How can I refresh the environment variables in the command prompt I use my program?
I am wondering if I can use VB.NET(I am using visual studio 2010 express) to get and set a environment variable.
I want to add path of my application on system environment. I want to preserve what is already there and then I wan to add my string. This can be done by getting value of PATH and then append my string then re writing it.
I have 2 questions here:
How to get/set system variable in vb.net 2010? Will it be on the fly, I mean will it be immediatly avaialble in dos prompt or there will be delay?
As just for experiment i opened a command prompt then updated the PATH variable manually and it was not updated. I am wondering it I do it through programe it will be same.

I think my title covers the high level, but for indepth; i need to be able to connect to a machine through and ip and set a enviroment variable, i have over 60 machines in different states all on one network that i need to do this for as well as someother things for the machine. currently this is being done through a PCEXEC command in a batch file they want more control on how this operates. I just really have no idea where to even start looking for the enviroment variable change(setting one on a machine that the app is running is simple we all know that. but on a external machine im lost) on a remote machine.

I have VB6 Dll which I am referencing in vb.net ,I am calling the following function in it. It working fine in developemnt environment but not in deployement environment.
Error Method not found: 'Boolean MyUtils._MyUtils.LoadMyObjectRecords(ADODB.Stream ByRef, System.Array ByRef)'.
i was wondering if it possible to have a condition where lets say you have a column in the datatable called amount and a textbox acting as the filter called say maxamount to set it so the rowfilter when filtering the table will sum the number in the amount column until the number in maxamount is met, then stop and only return the rows where the total sum of the amount column is equal or less than the maxamount value, so i guess if the next row takes us over the maxamount it discards this row and returns the rows previous to it. is this possible using datagridview rowfilter or should i be loooking elsewhere to achieve this?

I have a form called FrmPracDetails which is built up with a List view called LvwColProc. Therefore when you click a field on the LvwColProc it takes you to another form called FrmColProcessing, here you can make changes to certain fields which are also present on FrmPracDetails. What I want to do is when you make changes on FrmColProcesing and Click the Save Button (which calls the Save function)the changes appear instantly on FrmPracDetails. Please note, FrmColProcessing will always be open next to FrmPracDetails. I have tried to put this code in the Save function present in FrmCol Processing as shown below, but it doesnt Refresh FrmPracDetails form. [code]

View 2 RepliesI have the following line of code in my program:
JCL_History.Enqueue(JCL_History(I))
This JCL_History object is basically a Generic.List encapsulated in a wrapper and has the following method:
Public Sub Enqueue(ByRef value As String)
If Members.Contains(value) Then
Me.RemoveAt(Members.IndexOf(value))
[Code].....
In my testing I have 2 items in this JCL_History list. When I call that first line of code I posted (the one that invokes Enqueue) with I = 1 I expect the first item to be shuffled to the bottom and the second item to be shuffled to the top.
After the thread returns from Enqueue I notice that this is exactly what happens to my list, HOWEVER if I hit the "step_in" button after the execution of Enqueue I go into the Default Property's set method where Index = 1 and value = and it screws everything up, because the item that got shuffled to the end (index 1) gets overwritten by the item value shuffled to the top.
So basically the set method on the default property is getting called at what I think to be a completely ridiculous time. What gives? By the way I'm running VS2005 on XP.

View 3 RepliesCan you look at my coding and let me know what I'm missing or doing wrong?I have a SSRS report that is called from a ReportViewer control and the ProcessingMode for this control is Remote. The report also has 1 parameter in it's DataSet.In the code I placed a MsgBox to make sure the code is finding the parameter and returning the parameter name. I am trying to stick the value of 10 into the parameter for playerID 10. Data for this player does exist.
I believe I need to add some more code to make this work but I'm not sure what else to add.
When the code executes the report is displayed but no data is shown in the report.

I recently found an awesome tool called "Freemind" that is called a 'mind mapping' program. It's similar to MS Visio but way cooler and more automated.I reeeallly would like to integrate this into a VB.net Form, but how?
Has anyone seen or heard of mind mapping inside VB.net before? Are there programs out there already that work with VB.net or anyone have an example they have seen / built that works?
My code Adds a New Row from a Source Table called "objTablaOrigen" To a final table called "objTablaDestino". This tables are passed ByRef because they come from a DataSet respectively. objRowNuevo is The Row that will be added to "objTablaDestino" The data from "objRow" is well copied to the "objRowNuevo" (that is the new Row with type of objTablaDestino).
'The problem occurs when the instruction Add is executed. ¿What happens? The new row is added as well, but this generates an Exception with the next message:

View 4 RepliesWe have a couple of applications at work that need a reference to the license server set in the User Variables under the Enviroment Variables on the windows xp client machines(system properties, Advanced, Enviroment Variables). The problem is that both applications needs a reference to the same variable name and you can't have two with the same name. What i intend to do is to create a simple windows application with a button for each application that deletes the variable item present, adds a new variable item with the value needed for that application to be able to run and then run the application itself. This is just a temporary fix until we get a more permanent solution. The 'GetEnvironmentVariable' class in vb is not able to add or delete a item, maybe the WIN32 API could do the job.
View 2 RepliesI was trying to learn how to do openGL within a VB .NET environment and it seems that the Tao framework or OpenTK is recommended with OpenTK having a higher recommendation so that is what I chose to try using. Since I am brand new to this, I am trying to just draw a simple box, triangle, or anything really so that I can understand it all before making more complex things. I have been unsuccessful at this so far so I will list in order what I have done so far and hopefully someone here can help me correct it or provide a new example just so I can draw a simple shape.
1) I installed OpenTK using opentk-2010-10-06.exe
2) In a new project I added the references to OpenTK.dll and OpenTK.Compatibility.dll
3) I added the control (opentk.glcontrol.dll)
4) I added the actual control to my form.Using some examples online I added the rest:
5) I wrote my references in:
Imports OpenTK
Imports OpenTK.GLControl
Imports OpenTK.Platform

Smith123 or SmithS?

Environnent.NewLine seems to be resolving to two spaces " " (as are vbCrLf and ControlChars.CrLF). Using StringBuilder, AppendLine is doing the same.I've been racking my brain and searching the Internet trying to figure out why this the way it is, but am coming up empty.
