i just recently moved to the windows-7 operating system from xp. (didn't like vista much)
in xp, i can load as many applications of the same app, multiple times.. windows -7 does not allow my app to do so..
if it has something with checking "Make Single Instance Application" from the app's properties, definitely explain what that does, since i don't have a clue.
I am working on a project that is used for key broadcasting. Don't worry nothing illegal, I'm making a multibox application for world of warcraft. However I am having trouble when it comes to launching and manipulating other applications from another.

View 4 RepliesI'm a new programmer and I'm looking for some guides/series, or something like those, that basically walk you through building some sort of application. For example, I used to buy little sets/kits from radioshack that walked you through building a clock, radio, etc., or other little electronics devices. The kits came with all the parts and instructions so you just assembled them. Hence, I'm just looking for something similar to that for vb, minus the components obviously ;-). I like to learn through hands on experience so I'm just looking for some guides that have you build a program and briefly go explain the workings of the code.

View 2 RepliesI want to code an app with recreational purposes. This should be a Desktop app that detects itself running on other computers on the same LAN and communicates with them. By communication I mean that I should be able to pass anything from on to another. note that although I'm not asking for code (that would beat my purpose, of course) I think some small snippets wouldn't hurt. In any case what I really want is the "recommended procedure", I mean what Microsoft recommends for this environment, and documentation :)
View 3 RepliesI'm wanting to program a few buttons to run programs. The only issue is that they are in different directories.
Directory Structure:
+Program Files
- Test 1
- Test 2
- Test 3
- MyApplication
The Program Files folder is located on a Flash Drive which will have a different drive letter per computer. How can I code this?
I'd like to know what the best way to communicate between two applications via a LAN would be? ..and would it work over multiple versions of Windows (XP, Vista, NT etc..)?
I am setup with Visual Basic Express 2008.
How can I get all of the running applications? If I have to use Process.GetProcesses, then how can I determine which are applications (appear in the task bar)?

View 2 RepliesI am writing a basic little program. Amongst everything, my program will let you install printers remotely, To cut a long story shot I don't want to use the rundll32 shortcut to install as you can only remove the printer using rundll32 again which I don't want.
The way I wanted to do it is create a VBS script and execute it remotely using psexec. This didn't work for some reason, locally the script works fine but when executing it remotely the script runs but doesn't perform any of the actions inside the script.
The only other option I can think of is launching the VBS via WMI. I have done a bit of research and I cant seem to find any VB code that does anything similar.
I need some assistance in creating a program that logs all the processes that the Application does. I want the program to log every process, the Username, any error messages,the date the process occured to a textfile. I attached is the code that I have put together. Have issues getting the processes to be Logged.

I want a tool to create database applications. I think that the Microsoft product for this is Visual Basic. I would like to ask:
1) Why Visual Basic is better than Delphi ( from Borland )?
2) Where can I see the Versions and Prices?
3) Visual Basic allows to put applications on the Cloud? How this works? In which Cloud services works?
4) Which database can be accessed directly - without having to install third- party components - from Visual Basic? Which of these databases works on the Cloud?
5) Does Visual Basic allows connections to Microsoft Office and/or OpenOffice?
6) Where can I find a version to test it?

View 1 RepliesI'm about to roll out a large application to many workstations throughout the company and I've never really had the need to "auto-update" an application until now. Ideally, I'd like a "one time install" and then updates are applied without user intervention/IS involvement. (user intervention would be ok as long as it wont require a logoff or admin escalation)

View 3 RepliesI wish to use common CRC logic in a VB.NET or C# application as well as on a C/Linux application. I have one C/Linux application that interacts with a webservice (written in C#) and also a web application (written in VB.NET). For some data, I want to add a CRC to the data itself (say a file) from the .NET side and check for the integrity of the data (checking the CRC) on the client - and also vice-versa.
