Give The Form A Command When User Switches To Another Application?
Apr 20, 2009
let's say i have this application running, preset size. and there are other applications, like, firefox, vb, etc. in the background where i can click on them to bring them to front and use. now, when that's done, i'd like my application to minimize by it's self instead of just becoming a application that got sent to the back of another one.. the minimize is just to get me started, since i'll probably resize it to a button or so.just a squirrel looking for my nut...

I am using the following code to run defrag and to analyze if the C: drive requires defragmentation:
Dim analyze As Process = System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("C:WindowsSystem32defrag.exe", "C: /a /h /u /v")
This process runs through analyzing, runs it in normal mode & prints the progress to the command window.
My problem is that as soon as the process is complete the command window closes. I need it to stay open so that I can read the results.

I know how to add an exit button with a prompt. However, I do not have the slightest cluse as to how I can add this same functionality to the window so that if the user clicks the X in the upper right corner, there is a prompt message confirming the user needs to exit.I added a form closing event but getting wrong results, the form closes if I click no and message window does not leave when I click yes to stay.
Code:
Private Sub frmTest_FormClosing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Handles Me.FormClosing
If (MessageBox.Show("Are you sure you want to exit?", "Close Form", _
MessageBoxButtons.YesNo, MessageBoxIcon.Question) = _

I am trying to send a command to the external command line (cmd.exe) from the Windows form application that I'm writing in VB.NET (using VS2008).
I can only access the external program thru the command line (its not my program) and I must do so from a form app.
I am trying to use the following code. I am able to call a cmd.exe window, but I can't pass the command line my command.
Using mp As New Process
With mp.StartInfo
.FileName = "cmd.exe"

I'm trying to create a querystring so when a user switches languages, the URL changes to ?lang=NL, for example. I have this in the code behind on homepage.master (VB, NOT C#):
Me.Request.QueryString("lang") <> Session([Global].SESSION_KEY_CULTURE) Then
Visual Studio underlines it in blue. When I hover over the left side of the statement, it says "Property Value Must Assign to the property or use its value" When I hover over the right side of the erred statement, it says, "End of Statement Expected".I'm not sure if the code I was given is C#, but when I use the Teleflex translator to check, it says "EOF Expected" and won't translate. All of this is tied into 3 classes I created, BasePage.vb, Culture.vb, and Global.vb. But I think it's just this line that's screwing everything up.

This may be a dumb question, but I am stumped. I wrote a simple desktop application in vb.net (vs2005) and published it via the "deploy" method. After I deployed the app and ran the deployment exe - the application runs fine. However, I have recently added some command line switches so I can run the app via a scheduled job. But I cannot find the "exe" file in order to run the application from the command line. Am I missing something or did I deploy/publish the application wrong?

When user clicks on a button on my form, it sends the datagridview on that form to another class that [basically] does a bunch of stuff and shows a dialog with a print preview. Everything works perfectly fine, except that if a user switches around columns it won't print them in that current order. For example, if user moves the LastName column before FirstName column, then it should print in that order, but it prints in the column order that the datagridview was originally loaded. The dgv1, is the datagridview that was originally loaded, not the current one. [Code]

Is there any way to use a VB form to supply user credentials to the Runas command in command prompt? I basically need something exactly the same as the GUI for RunAs but just for Internet Explorer (yes I know you can right click and go RunAs but that cant be done in this case). So the user would open this VB form, type their username and password in, hit OK and it would open Internet Explorer with their credentials (they log in under a generic account used by many people).

This is what I'm trying to accomplish: I have a Point of Sale application that integrates with a credit card processesor. I wan't to remove any user interfacing logic in regards to the credit card processor in the point of sale and add it to a application that sits in the background or system tray. I want to be able to send a command to the background app to popup a form for user input.
For example: User in the Point of Sale clicks a button "Credit Card" at this point it will send a command to the background app say "ProcessCC" which will pass a transactionid and an amount , this will open a form for the user to enter in the credit card information and submit the payment to the credit card proccessor.
Reason: I need to get a padss certification and don't want to submit the point of sale to do it. Rather send the simple background app that will control any credit card processing functionality such as encryption , storing etc. I know it can be done using sockets but was hopping for an alternative solution.

I am working on an application that I want to give the User the option of using a password and sign-in or not. I have added three items to the "Settings" , these are:
1) SignInRequired (True or False)
2) UserID (string)
3) Password (string)
My problem is that I'm not sure where I should put the code. Should I use a module and set it as the opening form, or shall i put the code in the first form the viewer sees, which I tried and due to other situations the form has several different appearances, a this is causing a problem.
