View 4 RepliesI have a 32 bit application that shells a second application that can be 32 or 64-bit depending upon the computer it's running on. I only want one instance of the second application to run at a time, and I need the first application to prevent the second from being launched more than once. I want to be able to use GetProcessesByName to obtain the running processes. This seems to work fine. It's when I attempt to obtain the module data to find out what folder the second application was run from that things fall apart.

So I transitioned over to Win 7 64 bit, and am starting to incorporate it into my program. I understand that My.System.FileSystem.SpecialFolders.ProgramFiles will resort to x:Program Files if the host system is 64 or 32 bit. However, if the host is 64, and the program is 32 bit, one would need to acess x:Program Files (x86).
My question is this:How can I test an executable to see if it is 32/64 bit, and then apply the proper program folder?
Is it possible to get the network information of another program/Process like Bytes sent and Bytes received. I looked under the Process class but that didn't yield any results.

Also, programmatically, how do I get the player to stop playing an audio file?I have my app that upon startup has the wmp. The program does not revolve around the wmp, it's just a nice addition for the user. The user has 2 options to "Hide" the player. 1) "Hide the Audio Player but keep Playing the Audio File" and 2) "Hide the Audio Player AND stop the currently playing Audio File". The first option is easy to code, but for the secoond option, I have not been able to figure out in code hoow to "Stop" the audio. And I could not find any examps. Thus, the reason I am asking here.

Should I make an array of integer between 1789 and 2009, then search for every year in the file, then set a flag to false if not found; is there a simpler way to accomplish this using LINQ?
About 5 years ago I wrote this program in Excellusing VBA to compute commissions, income and expenses for the real estate agents in my wife's business.The company is made up of about 50 agents. Part of the program includes a combobox on a main form when a name was selected it also selected, the agent id, and the split the agent was on. It would calculate the split expense that my wife got by multiplying the split percentage from the combobox times the total commission.The main form also contained various other comboboxes, list boxes, and text boxes to gather such info as property address, selling price, titles company, transaction credit,income,Once all the info was complete my wife was asked if she wanted to save the transaction. If the answer was yes, the info was transferred to the permanate database, a commision report for the agent and my wife was printed out, and the temporary database was cleared.

Using process.start ("filename"), i was able to run the exe file. After that i send Alt U to Unzip the content.. Finally the Self Extractor sends message "xx files unzipped successfully..." or similar...
Now, how do I find out the the extraction is completed or the msgbox "xx files unzipped successfully..." popped up ? (I don't like to go thru the window title as there might be other thing going on...)

what I am trying to do its to automate a user interraction by code.First I have a button named "start" once pushed I navigate with webbrowser to download a file. What I try to do it is to find the window "File download" by his title name, I allready made a seperate thread to loop into to list of process until it found the window "File download"
Where I need help, it is with the process list. I try that code below but I don't see the process "File download" in the list.and once I found it I would like to use sendMessage() api to simulate the click of save.I would like to find another window after to catch the window "save as" and click save and if the window that ask for overwriting appear I would like to find it too and click yes.
Why I use webbrowser instead of httpwebrequest it is because the web site required to login, i try using cookie, etc. No success so I decided to use webbrowser, I navigate first into the login page, I login manually and once it is done I can click the button to start downloading. I want to make an automatic download loop, I have lot of files to download on that site, sometimes .doc and other times it is .pdf
I didn't found a way yet how to force webbrowser to ask for downloading .pdf instead of opening it in acrobat, if someone can help me for that point too

I am attempting to make a piece of software that monitors a 3rd party process for injected code. I successfully made a program that uses readprocessmemory from kernel32 to search for strings in a process. My problem is that the process I am attempting to monitor is running as system and provides an access denied message when I attempt to query any information about the process. Including process.handle and process.modules. Are there any ways I can get this process' handle?
View 4 RepliesI'm fairly new to vb.net and trying to get information for a project at work! Basically I can list all the applications running on a machine, I cannot however retrieve the details of the user running it! At the moment I'm using the following code after importing System.ServiceProcess and System.Diagnostics.Process:
Public Sub GetProcess()
Dim pr As Process
A = 0
For Each pr In Process.GetProcesses(System.Environment.MachineNam e)
ReDim Preserve arrProcess(A)
arrProcess(A) = New String() {pr.ProcessName.ToString, Process.GetCurrentProcess.PrivateMemorySize64}
A = A + 1
Next
End Sub
I have tried using pr.StartInfo.UserName but that just returns the username of the person logged onto the machine.
I am using a System.Diagnostics.Process to execute dirquota.exe. I catch an exception at .Start() which is "The system cannot find the file specified".
I am now doing:
foreach (var fi in new DirectoryInfo(@"C:WindowsSystem32").GetFiles())
{
Console.WriteLine(fi.Name);
}
This outputs pretty much every file in that directory apart from dirquota.exe.
I have a context.Request.QueryString item that is returning the wrong value in the ProcessRequest method of a .ashx handler.
The code is like so:
Public Sub ProcessRequest(ByVal context As HttpContext) Implements IHttpHandler.ProcessRequest

End Sub
One of the values returned by "OrderItems" is wrong. How can I find out what process has called this method to fix the incorrect data?
I searched on the forum / Internet for the solution how a PropetryInfo object (of a Public property) can reveal if it has a Private Protected Setter ... it was all in vain .... all help I found was about how to "Set" value of a public property having a Private Setter.I would like to know if I have a PropertyInfo object of a public property, how would I know if its Setter is Non Public?
I tried, in a exception handling block, where I did a GetValue of the PropertyInfo object and then called SetValue by setting the same value back... but to my surprise it worked well and didn error out.

I have a process serves as an application updater.It checks it's local cache of files and compares this against list of files online.On it's first run there are no files in the local cache and it therefore downloads ~100 of these files.[code]This appears to work very well, since Explorer confirms that all files are extracted and available.However when I later run this process again, it cannot verify the existence of 6 of these files and therefore tries to download them despite the fact that they are clearly both present and up to date.The offending code is a simple File.Exists call which appears to deny the local existence of these files, and therefore tries to get them again.The system continues to work well, but over time the continual downloading of these 6 files is going to get kind of silly.
View 1 RepliesI have written a windows service that is meant to launch a notepad when a specific action happens. The problem i have is that even though the service launches notepad, the actual notepad it self is NOT visible. I know that it has been launced because i can see the process in the task manager. By the way the process is listed as a SYSTEM process rather than a process under my user name (i believe that is because my process is a "LocalSystem" one).
