It will apparently allow me to enable/disable my network connection programatically.I'm not sure how I should call it?I've tried several things such as:Network.SetConnectionState("Network Connections", "Local Area Connection 2", "1", "0", True)[code]
We need to use VB.NET or command line to enable Network Adapters.OS: Windows XP Pro SP3User: Limited User Account which has been added to Network Configuration Operators, has the privilege to Disable / Enable when we right click on the Network AdapterRight Clicking on one of the Network Adapters has the Enable / Disable function that we want to use from VB.NET Code or Comand Line Function and works exactly as required.
I want to write a small program to just enable/disable two network adapters. I searched over google and I found a few C# codes but didn't understand anything. I heard something called WMI. It seems they are other ways like enabling registry (which sounds wierd for me) or using command lines.
I really don't know which way should be used althought I didn't find any code to those either. something that works in win xp & vista & seven.
Because user want two switch between two NIC by enable one and disabling another one, I think I should first get a list of network adapters, then let user specify. I know It can be done easily by going to the network settings directly and do it by right clicking. But they want to do it through a program with single click.
Edit: I was able to get a list of adapters using WMI, Here is the page If someone wanted to take a look.
Below is my code which enables and disables all network cards in my PC.
It works fine but when I execute this code on a normal User Account, i get the exception " Unable to read beyond the end of the stream" .
Im also aware that as a normal user, one will not be able to enable and disable network cards. I tried changing the settings in gpedit.msc bt it still doesnt work.
How do I grant permission to the user so that he wud b able to disable and enable the network card using the code below?[code]...

I am developing an application with a DataGridView (dgvData) that requires a ToolStipMenuItem (tsmiSelectNetwork) of a ContextMenuStrip (cmsNetwork) to be enabled and disabled programmatically based on if the column is sorted or not.
I have set:
'tsmiSelectNetwork.Enabled = False' at runtime 'tsmiSelectNetwork.Text = Select All' at runtime 'dgvData.Columns(5).ContextMenuStrip = cmsNetwork' programmatically
When dgvData is sorted by column 5, tsmiSelectNetwork.Enabled should be set to True; when it is sorted by any other column, it should be set to False (see code below)
Private Sub dgvData_Sorted(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles dgvData.Sorted If Not dgvData.SortedColumn Is Nothing Then
[Code]....
The debug output indicates it is functioning properly, but what you seen on the screen is not.
I am using Visual Studios 2008, version 9.0.30729.1 SP; and .NET Framework 3.5 SP1; ContextMenuStrip version 2.0.0.0
I may be SOL on this but I thought I would give throw it out for possible solutions.I am writing a computer access control service tcontrol my kids' computer use. Plan on open sourcing it when I have it working.

But I cannot interact with the desktop from the service so I IPC to a UI to handle other stuff, but I still cannot detect from the service if the desktop is locked. Argghh!

I am attempting to write a program that will disable the Local Area Connection while leaving the Wireless connection enabled. My company is using net-books in our stores to demo air-cards and we need to keep them off of the LAN. I'm new to VB and VB.net, and it's been a while since I did any type of programming. I've gathered some code that others have posted in forums and tutorials and I'm working through a tutorial book, but I finally believe that I am stuck.
I have a vb.net based windows application, where when "GO" button is clicked a bunch of data is loaded into DB. So in my application as soon as "GO" button is clicked I want to just disable it and would like to enable it back when the uploading has completed.Now in my specific method for btnGo_Click() I have:

I populate a DataGridView during a sub routine. Later in my code I have a RowEnter event for that DataGridView when the user is assessing it after it has been populated during the main procedure. However this RowEnter event gets fired while the DGV is being populate. I only want it to file AFTER its populated. Is it possible to disable this specific event while the DGV is being populated? I really want the user to have the ability to cursor up/down the DGV and see affects of the RowEnter Event. I know I can also use the CellEnter event but it does not have the same effect.
