Unable To Run Batch File Located On Mapped Network Drive?
Nov 29, 2011I am unable to run batch file that is located in mapped network drive using System.Diagnostics.Process in VB.Net. I get:'<batchfilename>.bat' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.Press any key to continue..I get the same error when navigate to the folder (using explorer) that contains this batch file and double click it. I can successfully run the batch file by changing the directory to that folder through command prompt. I can't figure out why this is happening. I think the problem is Start() function of Process works like double click rather than just run the batch file.

Winforms Saving Images To SQL Server Without Creating A File On The User's Hard Drive?
Jun 22, 2011This is my first attempt at creating a Winforms application, and I have been developing in the .Net Framework (Silverlight, ASP.Net, WPF) for about 6 months. So, my appologies if this is a newbie question.
Basically what I am doing right now is taking the drawings of a stylus-based input, and storing them into an image field in a SQL Server database. Then, in another form, I go and get that image out of the database, and load it into a picture box. It works, but it is rather "sloppy" how it got there.When the user clicks save, it stores that image into a temporary folder, then converts it to a byte array and throws it into the database that way. Then, it deletes the file from the temporary folder. When retrieving it, it pulls it out of the database in a byte array, then converts it to an image in a temporary folder, thus displaying it on the form.
Is there a way that I can just bypass the storing of the file onto the user's harddrive both times, and go from byte array to picturebox?

Reading And Writing Files On External Hard Drive, Code To Ensure SQL Or Data Read/write Execution In Case Of Periodic Drive Reconnect?
Dec 18, 2010The drive is connected via USB and the problem I'm having is that, periodically, while my code is executing, the usb drive seems to disconnect and reconnect. (Nothing to do with the program, but the drive itself).I want to find a way to prevent these temporary drive reconnects from interrupting my code. IE, i want to insure that whatever read or write that is requested is actually executed even in the case of a temporary drive interruption.

Retrieve Hard Drive Temperature?
Feb 1, 2010I am looking for a way to retrieve the temperature of hard drives in VB Express 2008. I have found posts at a few different places that accomplish this with the following: Public Function GetDriveTemp() As Integer
Try
Dim searcher As New ManagementObjectSearcher("rootWMI", "SELECT * FROM MSStorageDriver_ATAPISmartData")
For Each queryObj As ManagementObject In searcher.Get()
Dim arrVendorSpecific As Byte() = queryObj("VendorSpecific")
GetDriveTemp = arrVendorSpecific(115
Next
[Code]...
This function retrieves the temperature for all the hard drives in my system (excluding USB), two internal and one external esata drive. There are two problems, tough: 1. I want to know the drive letter and maybe the drive label that the retrieved temperature corresponds to. I'm assuming that the * in the query, "SELECT * FROM MSStorageDriver_ATAPISmartData", can be changed to specify a particular drive rather than all drives, but I don't know how retrieve a list of all the drives in my system or how to write the query based on those results.
2. If I call the funciton from a some click event like for a label or button, there are no problems and the return value seems valid. But when I call the function from a Timer_Tick event, the mouse cursor is the busy cursor as long as the mouse is within the form, the form doesn't receive any click events, and it cannot be closed.
I know what I'm trying to do can be done because there are a few utilities that provide this information.
