Executing Another Executable File From VB?
Sep 15, 2010I'm trying to make a program that has command buttons, each running a different file. I have added some files so far, but I encountered a problem with a couple of them.
For example, I want to run Zuma's Revenge! right from the program, but it is not working. If I run the game from outside the program, it runs perfectly, but when I try running it from the program, it keeps saying "Zumas Revenge! - Adventure has stopped working."
What really confused me, is that the game is running normally if I run it from its folder or by using the shortcut, while from the program it isn't.I'm using Windows 7, with Visual Basic 2010 Express.
'Here's the code I'm using:
Private Sub Zumas_Revenge_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Zumas_Revenge.Click
Process.Start(My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath & "umas Revenge! - AdventureumasRevengeAdventure.exe")
End Sub

May 4, 2010What i have realized is that when you use My.settings, a XML File is put with your EXE when your project is Published.
What you can also do is just Open that File and Change the Variable "Register" From "False" to "True"
How can i do what Most Registration files do, and make the XML File go away and Create a Unwritable file, where the values cannot be changed.

View 7 RepliesOutput Continuous Sound NOT A File?
Nov 2, 2011I have a data source that creates a continuous stream of 24-bit samples. I can collect a set of samples and build a .WAV file, and play the file through my speakers. What I want to do is eliminate the middleman, and send the stream of samples directly to the sound card. The data source can run for hours or days. I want to hear it in real time, rather than collect it all and listen to it after the fact. The idea is that I can tune the process that creates the data better if I can hear what it's doing.

View 6 RepliesC# Running Batch File And Streaming Its Output?
Apr 2, 2012I have this problem in VB.NET in c#, I have this project where I need to run a batch file, which is easy enough. But my problem is I need to display everything that shows up on the batch file, in the cmd window, in a textbox, now, this code opens the file no problem:
System.Diagnostics.Process proc = new System.Diagnostics.Process();
proc.EnableRaisingEvents = false
proc.StartInfo.FileName = "C:\Users\jwoow\Desktop\Server\run.bat";
proc.Start().ToString();
but it doesn't move the code over to the textbox, this code transfers the last displayed line, but not the entire thing of the batch file and it also closes the cmd window, i need it to stay open:
Process p = new Process();
p.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
p.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
[code]....
the batch file is for a server, it displays the amt of users on it (updates ever 2 minutes) and shows different events taken by the users. so it is constantly updating.
