Webbrowser - Invoke To Press The Login Button - Shortcut To Log Into Many Things

Jul 8, 2010

I have been using this as a short cut to log into many things as it saves me time and I have previously set up code to log into a website and launch the program but now it does not work because the site has changed.

What i use was Invoke to press the login button but the problem now is that there is no "id" for the object i wish to be clicking. Let me explain..

Here is the code i have:

WebBrowser1.Document.All("tbID").SetAttribute("value", ID.Text)

WebBrowser1.Document.All("tbPass").SetAttribute("value", Password.Text)

For Each InputBx As HtmlElement In WebBrowser1.Document.GetElementsByTagName("input")

[CODE]...

But the part i cannot fix is this: (due to the part not having an "id" and i cannot manually put on there like i did for my site i had)

WebBrowser1.Document.All("LogBtn").InvokeMember("click")

In the source code this is what i have to work with:

<div id="m-start">

<ul><li class="bg-login login-module">
<input id="tbID" type="text">
<input id="tbPass" type="password">

[CODE]...

This is the part of which i wish to click but it has no "id" : <input value="Login" class="login" type="submit">

Win7/64 Shortcut Discrepancy Between Scripted IconLocation And Change Icon Button

Nov 30, 2010

I am noticing a discrepancy between a full path specified for a VBScript Shortcut IconLocation and the subsequent mangled result that only becomes noticeable when I wish to manually change the Shortcut's Icon. Somewhere after the oShortcut.save call, the mangling occurs.

The icon is always properly displayed on the Shortcut. However, programs that exist only in the 32-bit "C:Program Files (x86)" location result in an error message that states, "Windows can't find the file %ProgramFiles%<etc>." (where <etc> is the remainder of the path).

The Visual Basic Script as well as my Command Prompt both show %ProgramFiles% as "C:Program Files (x86)", yet the Shortcut/Windows Explorer dialog always interpret it as the 64-bit Program directory. This may indicate a low level flawed interaction, a contention of definitions.

Input/Output examples:

IN: Hard coded to the call to oShortcut.IconLocation = "<Full Path>,0"

OUT: The text shown in the error message after I click "Change Icon...".

These ONLY exist in "C:Program Files (x86)":

IN: C:Program Files (x86)AdobeReader 10.0ReaderAcroRd32.exe
OUT: %ProgramFiles%AdobeReader 10.0ReaderAcroRd32.exe

[Code]....

Note the %SystemDrive% adds a further insane mangling of the 64-bit path. This one luckily seems to be a benign error for the moment. The errors are not even consistent. Has anyone at Microsoft ever heard of quality control?

VS 2010 Improve A Button So The User Can Make A Backup Of The *.mdb File?

Nov 14, 2011

I have my desktop app, bound to an access database. I want now to improve a button so the user can make a backup of the *.mdb file.So i used this

If FolderBrowserDialog1.ShowDialog = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
If FolderBrowserDialog1.SelectedPath <> "" Then
FileCopy("BDGRACIA.mdb", FolderBrowserDialog1.SelectedPath & "/BDgracia.mdb")
End If
End If

It works fine when i try the app from within Visual Studio. But when i install it it won�t find the database because it was installed elsewhere.Is there a way to control where the DB is installed and follow that route? Does this depend on the OS the app is installed? Or did I face the problem wrong and i should do something completely different with my button?
