View 9 RepliesI am working on an application that needs to launch Microsoft Word, and then resume when the user closes Word. The code below should work, but it does not. I get an 'object not set to an instance of an object'
1 Dim pInfo As New ProcessStartInfo
2 Dim P As New Process
3 pInfo.FileName = "C: estLLR.doc"
4 P = Process.Start(pInfo)
5 ''# Here is where it goes bad
6 P.WaitForInputIdle()
7 P.WaitForExit()
I put p into the watch window and it shows a a system.diagnostics.process in the watch after line2, but after line 4 it return to NOTHING. The process launches, but I can not monitor it any longer with lines 6 & 7. Is this a 'limitation' of Visual Studio 2010 or am I making an operator error? The MS Help does not show process available in the 2010 version (it is in Visual Studio 2005 and Visual Studio 2008).

I wrote a program using VB 2008 Express Edition and noticed that when I close the program (by clicking the "X" top right corner), sometimes the program is still showing in processes within Task Manager.What do I need to include in my programming to make sure this does not occur - i.e. make sure the process ends when I exit the program?

View 2 Replieswhat I would like to do is create a program that runs in the task bar next to the time. What I want this to do is listen for the key stroke combo of CTRL-ALT-T no matter what program they are in. When they hit this key stroke I want the program to do is hide the task bar on the bottom of the screen. you know how you can change the hight to two rows one row and so on but you can also drag it down so it has no rows and can't see it. Then when they hit CTRL-ALT-T it will then display the task bar with what ever the hight wa set to. Just don't know what direction to go to do this.
View 3 Repliesi am trying to write a little program that checks for a process and kills is.here is the

I have a program that starts another program after setting the regkeys basically the program continually syncs the calandar of outlook and another application.I set the regkeys than launch the c:sync.exe app. I have tried a simple process.start and launching the process as a thread and they both do the same thing: The other process starts and works as it should but my main program goes "White screen" or "not responding" until the process.start has exited.
I want the process.start to run in the background so if users click in my main app it responds and truly that they can access the context menu of my main app from the taskbar while the process.start is running.
I mainly just build little apps that are mainly useful to me. So please be gentle.
I am currently working on a program that will paste text into a second program. The text will paste into several different fields automatically.
The problem I am running into is that I need my program to check for running processes(as the second app will already be running). I seem to have done this just fine. When I then need to "use" that process
I use myprocess.start()
This of course starts a second instance of the application in question.
How do I basically use a process that is running as if I used the command .start()?
I have written a windows service that is meant to launch a notepad when a specific action happens. The problem i have is that even though the service launches notepad, the actual notepad it self is NOT visible. I know that it has been launced because i can see the process in the task manager. By the way the process is listed as a SYSTEM process rather than a process under my user name (i believe that is because my process is a "LocalSystem" one).
View 4 RepliesI am trying to launch a program using System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("C:Program FilesFrets on FireFretsOnFire.exe") but the program always fails - the program generates an error log - so its obviously trying to start - ive included the log text but i doubt it will be useful.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "FretsOnFire.py", line 45, in <module>
File "GameEngine.pyo", line 23, in <module>

View 7 RepliesWhats the best way to insure only 1 copy of the software is running (ex. not allowing the user to open the software twice when its running)

I have tried to make a program not able to be forced to close by naming it the same as a system process. However, this only works on XP, not on Vista. I don't actually mind if the program is closed but I would like something to happen when it is, thus being able to end the process is not good.Is there any event that can contain code to be run when the process is stopped? I'm guessing not but it's worth asking. If not, is there any other way to stop this? Maybe have 2 programs continually watching for each other or something?

I am working on a Windows Service project that is supposed to start automatically with Windows and it has a timer to check if a certain process is created (in this case "iexplorer") the service should terminate that process. In addition, the user should not be able to stop the windows service.
I was able to create the process and make start with Windows. I changed the property (CanStop) to False but that did not help because after a few tries the servise stops. I used a For-Next loop in the timer to check for the process to terminate but unfortunatly, it didn't work. The code I used is:
Dim theProcesses() As Process = System.Diagnostics.Process.GetProcessesByName("Iexplore")
For Each currentProcess As Process In theProcesses

i just want to know how i can make this program run proberly. if you import a file in the listbox and you wanne start it whit the process.start methode it won't work. here is my code:
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
OpenFileDialog1.ShowDialog()
[code]....
My question is how can i make the process.start work properly and will the program start the file?
I know in the older versions of Visual Studio, there was an "Add Watch" option where you can choose to stop execution when the value of the field changed. I am using VS 2010, and I can't figure out how to hit the breakpoint when the value of the field changes.
