Get File Not Found Excpetion With Interaction.Shell Method?
Jan 18, 2012
I want to open a notepad file using VisualBasic.Interaction.Shell method. At present I get a file not found exception using the following code.
int pid = Interaction.Shell(@"D:abc.txt", AppWinStyle.NormalNoFocus, false, -1);
But this works:
int pid = Interaction.Shell(@"notepad.exe", AppWinStyle.NormalNoFocus, false, -1);
I've already added the unix2dos command in my environment path on the server.But when I execute the above mentioned command I get a FileNotFound exception even when the file is located on the disk.
im working on a little project what executes a bat file on a button click using this command:Interaction.Shell("read.bat", AppWinStyle.NormalFocus, True, -1)however when this is executed the program will become unresponsive while it is running... this may be simple but is there a way i can make my program be responsive and for it to execute in the background?
I am trying to use a simple LINQ to Objects query.When I try to run my application I get the message:
System.InvalidOperationException was unhandled Message="An error occurred creating the form. See Exception.InnerException for details. The error is: Method not found: 'Void sharatTashlumimWS.paymentDetailsManager.set_ReleaseDate(System.DateTime)'." Source="WindowsApplication1" StackTrace:
I am getting a "Method not found: 'Boolean MyCompany.LibraryAssembly.SomeFunction (System.String)'" Exception/error when running a VB.NET console application. The method is part of an external assembly and it is definitely in the assembly. The error only occurs at runtime when I go to enter the function that calls the method. I have the assembly referenced by my project and I am not copying it locally. Intellisense shows no errors, and neither does the compiler. I am loading the assembly statically not dynamically. I reference the from a local folder (not the GAC) although the same version is also available from the GAC.
I am getting an error when I try and run my service. I made sure everything in the project is VB .NET 2.0.This service used to work, but we have been making code updates... I did some research but I do not see anything relevant. Does this error mean that my function cause the issue? Or is it the List that is the issue?

I am trying to read all selected items from a listbox in Visual Basic.
Dim x As Integer Dim testValue As String testValue = "20"
[code]....
is the code I am trying. But When I run the code, I am getting "Compile error : Method or data member not found" I guess I am missing some references to use "ListBox.Items" method right?What is the required references/library.
When I start my application I get the following error:
method not found microsoft.visualbasic.msgboxresult
I have tried repairing my .NET installation.
Note: This error only occurs on one machine. On every other machine it works fine which makes me think something with the .NET assemblies was corrupted. It was working fine on the broken machine a few days ago.
I know there is a function Contains that returns true if string has a certain substing in it. But is there a function that returns the count of instances of that substring inside another string.
I found a custom ListBox that, strangely doesn't have an InsertAt method and I would like to add one. The custom ListBox uses an object instead of just a list of strings like a normal ListBox. I was curious what the logic behind inserting a new item at a particular index would be.The only thing I could come up with was add the new ListBoxItem at the end, then using the specified index, I could either keep moving ListBoxItem objects to the bottom, with the Add() method, from that index till the ListBoxItem at that index equals the one added, or I could use that index number in a "calculation" till I know I've moved the correct number of objects.
(using vb.net) On our intranet site we have an app that loads customer or vendor information and then allows the users to edit info and add/update/delete contacts. I'm not sure what really changed to this program lately, but I keep getting this error:
Method not found: 'Int16 DBLayer.DBTools.ExecuteNonQuery(System.String, DB)'.
This occurs when i try editing any customer info and the vendor contacts, but the program works when I try editing the vendor info/addy. Here's the program code. There's a seperate program on our webserver that contains the classes used. Here's the main code that calls the classes:
TO ADD CONTACT M2MInterface.M2M.Customers.AddContact(Session("CustVendID"), txtFName.Text.ToUpper.Trim, txtLName.Text.ToUpper.Trim, Tools.RemovePhoneNumberFormat(Phone), Tools.RemovePhoneNumberFormat(Fax), txtEMail.Text, txtNotes.Text, False) TO UPDATE CONTACT
I'm going to attempt to make a shell replacement for the Windows default shell: explorer.exe. I'm not sure if its possible using Vb.Net, but I can't seem why not. My end goal is to use a custom made shell for a Windows Preinstallation Environment instead of the default command prompt. I plan to use a 3rd party program to compile the program with the .NET Framework. Otherwise, it wouldn't work because Windows PE does not support the .NET Framework.
Currently I am using this code to check for Firefox on a 32 bit machine
Code: Dim Firefox32 As String Firefox32 = My.Computer.Registry.GetValue _ ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMozillaMozilla Firefox 5.0in", "PathToExe", Nothing) MsgBox("The value is " & Firefox32)
If the value is found then the above message is fine, but if the entry is not found I want it to display a message like: "Firefox could not be found" instead of "The value is: " What code would make this appear?

I have nine pictures that I need to animate -I need to use the ToString method and a counter to concatenate a file name into a string variable from the Image.FromFile method. Once the counter reaches its maximum value, and the last picture is displayed, the counter should be reset to zero or one depending on how the first image file has been name. Also a static counter variable should be incremented in the time routine. what I have so far -- I know what I have to do; however, I just do not know how to code this properly.. Right now I have this going thru a button procedure but it needs to go through a timer.

Here's an example code so you can understand my problem:
Dim test1 As String Dim test2 As String Dim test3 As String
[code]....
shell.Run("""testProgram""test1 test2 test3 test4") 'I know this is wrong.My problem is in the last line. I want the contents of the strings to be printed, not the names of the strings, and I don't know how to do that.
