The arguement -new is not being passed and the window that shows the website will open if no other windows are open. However, if any other windows are open, the last opened window gets the website.I have IE6 on my system. Is there any special syntax that will open a new browser window without using one that is currently open?
I have this in a VB.NET console application:
Dim p As ProcessStartInfo
p = New ProcessStartInfo(Environment.CurrentDirectory & "injavac.exe",ClassName & ".java")
Dim ps As Process = Process.Start(p)
This does run the java compiler on the file, but it does so in a new window. I want the output from javac to appear in the same console that is running my application. How can I do this? Perhaps there is another method for running commands in the current console? Or maybe I can supress the second console window from opening and redirect its output to the current console?

View 2 RepliesI have been tasked with creating an application that once a specific event is encountered, an email is sent to a specific inbox. The problem is that our anti virus stops all email coming from an "unqualified" executable. Fair enough. So my question is, how do I manually stop the anti virus service(s) using vb.net then restart them once the email was sent? I know in a DOS window I could use net stop "ServiceName" but I don't know how to translate that to be used in vb.net.

I have used Visual Basic 2008 successfully before.Now i have installed Visual Studio 2010 and want to debug an application i am writing.When in the source code (VB) i can't add a breakpoint using F9 nor by ckicking in the leftmost margin. I can only open the breakpoint window after closing the source code and then add a new breakpoint.
Then when starting the program and when the program get to the breakpoint it stops and show the code with the arrow representing the next line of code to be executed. Then i should be able to step into the code using F8, but nothing happens.

View 2 RepliesI am in need of a small application, that will allways be topmost and will send keystrokes to the last active application (typically notepad or an explorer window). My problem is retrieving the current active form (or application), when my application is started up. Every search seems to return old and rather complex solutions using Win32 library functions, but I was kinda hoping, that .Net allowed for a neater and more simple solution.I need a code example or link on how to retrieve the currently active application window from another application just starting up.

I dont want this behaviour! I want the program to start only when no other session of the same program is running. How can I do that in VB2008?

View 6 Replieshow to PROPERLY make a multi-tabbed or multi-window application that can handle file start requests.
For example, on startup my "Desktop Application" runs and sits there waiting for a task, either through the main menu, or for a file to display in a window. Now the problem is simple, how can I make this already running program load the dropped file (dropped on the executable (!)), instead of starting a new instance.
I understand I will have to check if the process is running, and if so, do some stuff with it. But the problem is passing the message to the active program.
Previously I used text files with paths/arguments in them, but I don't like the idea of the OS/program checking every 500 ms if a file is created in the "load this" folder...
Then I thought of sending a message using "Send Message", for example changing the text in a textbox and handle the "Text Changed" event, but is this reliable? Can any other program interfere with it?
So, basically I need the proper way of doing all of this. For example, Microsoft Visual Studio does this nicely, and no lag whatsoever...
How do I start writing a program that has 6 text boxes. A person would enter a member number if they have one, number of movies rented at $1.80 a piece. A Text box should then display Total Rental Price, and if a member number was entered, a 10% discount is given (the total of the discount shows up in another text box) and after there discount is applied the Amount Due is displayed in yet another Text Box.
My boxes are named:
memberNumberBox
moviesRentedBox
rentalPriceBox = $1.80
totalPriceBox
discountBox
amountDueBox
This is all supposed to happed when the customer clicks on a calculation button named: Button1
This is what I have so far, but I don't even know if this is correct, as I am getting 1 error relating to a name not being declared. Please help and clue me in to where to start!

1. VB9 app, accepts that accepts text input
2. When Submit is clicked, it copies the text to clipboard.
3. Then paste the text into a particular window that is already visible on an open wep page in Internet Explorer.
The window title of IE is for example
"Metastorm e-work client - Windows Internet Explorer"
I am trying to 'call' the already open page to make it appear over the VB application. The box I need to 'paste' into already has the focus, providing IE iteself has focus.
