I have a list of strings that I need to pass to a process in a different class. What I want to know which of the two ideas would be a better approach to use in terms of speed,efficiency and parallel processing. The list contains +- 10000 strings and I want to limit the threads appropriately to have only about 5threads running at one time:
For i as integer = 0 to searchPages.Count - 1
Parallel.For(0,10,Sub(x)
ps.processPage(searchPages.Item(i))

In the code below, I open excel file, when I try to enter some values into excel cells, and close it afterwards. For some reasons excel process is still active in task manager. I am releasing objects, quiting application like for other excel files in my program, but in this specific example can't do this. The code below is written in Visual Studio 2010, windows 7.

View 3 RepliesWhen I go to Debug my program (F5), the program will load, until I click on the form with the main part of code in it, and then the program freezes, although it doesn't lock up because as soon as I press stop debugging/ task manager end process, it closes fine.
I will attach the zip of the program here. The form that it freezes on is "Black Ops". Edit Due to the forum not accepting my .Zip file (Invalid file type), I will upload it to MediaFire. Download link (445kb): Click Here
A long time ago, on a PC far, far away from Windows, one MS-DOS program (the father) could run / execute / spawn another MS-DOS program (the son). When the son terminated, it could set a return code which could certainly be interrogated by an MS-DOS batch program or, I think, by any father program that invoked it (depending on the language in which that program was written). I have a small utilility which I want to invoke from my application, and, since that utility sets a return code, I would like to interrogate it in my application when the utility terminates. I've looked through the MSDN Library but could not find anything that seemed to cover this situation. Is there a way to do this in Visual Basic 2008 Express

I 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.

View 4 RepliesI have to install whole bunch of self extracting files every now and then.. so, I was trying to automate the process...
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...)

View 1 Replieswhat 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
