VS 2010 What Function Gets Called For X Close
Apr 1, 2011I am wanting to perform certain processes before the program closes. I can get them through the File > Exit part of my menu, but I can not find the VB6 form_unload equivalent in VB2010. I have tried Form_QueryUnload but it never gets called when I close by using the RED "X".
View 12 RepliesBatch File Not Working When Called From Shell
Apr 30, 2010We 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?

View 3 RepliesCommand Line To Close Shell Process?
Mar 12, 2011I've created a very basic WF Shell project which runs an EXE (xyz.exe) in the WF Shell project's Resource folder. I can get a command line working from the Shell to open the other EXE (xyz.exe). But, I can't get code to close the Shell project's other EXE (xyz.exe) once it is opened. The xyz.exe windows called by the Shell continues to stay open even if I pass a "close" command line to the Shell.
The following code (which Paul suggested in another posting) will not close the other (xyz.exe) EXE's running process (when called by the Shell). While the Shell seems to be able to return it's called subordinate EXE's (xyz.exe) ID, not sure how to use such an ID to close its process.
Imports System.Diagnostics
Module Module1
Dim resourceFolder As String = Application.StartupPath & "Resources"

Call A Function From Inside Another And Suspend It Until The Called Function Is Finished
Jan 25, 2010How can I call a function from inside another function and suspend the calling function until the called function is finished? I hope I can get some replies because I don't know how to ask the question and make sense:).
Anyway what I am trying to do in steps:
1. The user clicks button1 which triggers the click event.
2. From the click event I call a function
3. I then pop-up a form, that has instructions for the user to read.
4. After the user has read the form he will click the "Done" button and return to the calling function.
The problem is the the calling function continues to execute. I want to stop execution of the calling function until the users clicks the "Done" button on the instruction pop=up. I know I can use a msgbox but the instructions can be lengthly and does not look good in a msgbox.
I have tried the Call method with return in the "Done" button click but I can make that work. I also tried a goto statement but I can get that to work either. In the call statement I said call frmInstruction.show() and it got there but as I said the calling function continued to execute.
Does Subroutine Called By A Function Have To Finish For Function To Proceed
Jun 5, 2011If a subroutine is called within a function, does the function always wait until that subroutine is completely finished before it will proceed with the rest of the function? If so, is there any way to make it not wait and continue on with the rest of function and not care what happens in the subroutine?

Using Sockets: App Crashing When Close Called After BeginRead?
Sep 16, 2010I've made a small application which has a Form (Form1) and a Class (SocketClass). The Class holds the very basic kind of coding to connect to a server and download data. All communications are done through Sockets based on asynchronous methods.What I do is that when my application starts and I click the Connect button my form, it creates a new class (SocketClass) and creates a new socket and connects to server asynchronously. After a connection is made, it starts a loop that keeps monitoring for incoming data. I do that by calling BeginRead.
My application works perfectly. But there is one problem. When I try to disconnect the socket, it crashes my application. I've played around a lot with the code now, it appears that it crashes when a BeginRead is in progress. As per MSDN, I have to call ShutDown or Close to cancel a BeginRead and disconnect the connection. But even if I do that, it crashes my application.

View 11 RepliesClose() Puts Forms Into Crazy Open/Close Loop?
Mar 4, 2011In a program I'm working on, I want a "Loading..." dialog to close when it can't log in to a site using the username and password provided by the user. Basically, I have the code set up right because the function it is supposed to carry out when that occurs does work, but for some reason it ends up in some really weird stuff happening. In the Loading form, I have it set to do "Form1.Show()" and then "Me.Close()", assuming it would simply show the login form and then close the Loading form. However, when this happens, the Loading form closes, and then for only an instant Form1 shows, and then the Loading form shows and Form1 closes. This happens forever until I stop the debugging, and I can't seem to figure out why. Am I using the wrong method? What exactly does Me.Close() do anyways? All I want to do is close the form and open another

Forms :: Calling Forms Across Projects Within The Same Solution?
Jun 1, 2010I have 5 projects within the same solution file, Im trying to access a form that is part of one of the projects from my startup project.I have looked through the earlier threads and most of them deal with calling forms from within a project.To my understanding ive correctly added the projects to the solution file from File --> Add --> Existing Projects.I have also referenced my Project2 from Project1 but still the intellisense does not let me access form1 of project2 from project1.

Using The Shell Function In VB 2010 To Launch Perfmon?
Apr 22, 2011I'm trying to launch perfmon /res on a Windows 7 (32bit) install using VB Express 2010. When I use the line:
shell("C:WindowsSystem32perfmon /res", AppWinStyle.NormalFocus)
All I get told is that the file doesn't exist. IT DOES EXIST! ITS RIGHT THERE! If you try in cmd it works, if you go there in explorer it works, if NASA used an orbital platform connected to my c$ share and tried, it would work. If you get VB to check for the existence of the file using an if statement it finds it, then tells me its not there the very next line when I use shell to run it.
Forms :: When Me.close() Doesn't Close Form
Mar 2, 2009I have a situation where me.close() doesn't close the form. I have a form with a button with the code seen below. What happens when the button is clicked is the new form shows, but the original form(calling form) is still there. When I go into debug mode, I can see the me.close() execute, but nothing happens (calling form stays open). When I close the second form both forms close. If I comment out the call for the second form to open the first form closes without problem.

Use A Function / Module In 2 Projects
Sep 1, 2009i started with 1 solution, 1 project a usual. Then i did it again, different project. Then, i wanted to have the 2 projects in 1 solution - so i copyed the project folder from solution 2 into the folder of solution 1 and added as existing project the project 2. So far so good.
Now i have a module with some public functions in project 2, that i want to use in project 1 as well. So i added to the solution a class module (some classes i want to share also) and i moved the module, (that i want to commonly use) into this class library. But it seems wrong - my application does not find the function again.

View 11 RepliesAsp.net - Insert Function Is Called More Than Once?
Jul 10, 2011I have a website where people send each other messages Recently I noticed that sometimes the same message is sent more than once
For example, a message is sent four times within three seconds or twice within a second.I do not understand how this could happen, once the user clicks on the button that sends the message .So all the window switches and a message showup saying "the mail is sent successfully." I checked that if the user refreshes the page after it sends a message, then really the message is sent again.But I do not think that's the case, becouse the message is sent twice within one second.I am writing in vb.net and using mysql data base.Maybe it's related to the queue for the db, i do not know.Here's the code:
Function calls:
Call GlobalFunction.update_mailbox_table(user_id, receiverId, txtMessage.Text, private_picture)
