.NET - Pass Command On Command Line?
May 29, 2012I am struggling to pass a parameter to a VB.NET application via a Windows scheduled task. It works perfectly in Visual Studio (passing a command line arguement via project properties).If I am calling a VB6 application, then I will supply the following parameters and it works:
Run: c:progra~1TestTest.exe TestParameter Start In: c:progra~1Test However, if I supply the same parameters in VB.NET, the program throws an exception when it tries to create an instance of a class in the Form.Load: System.NullReferenceException cannot create instance of object.
I have also tried the following:Run: c:program filesTestTest.exe TestParameter Start In: "c:program filesTest" This time the status of the scheduled task changes to "cannot start".What is the correct way to specify command line parameters in a scheduled task for a VB.NET program?UPDATE I found the solution on this web page:[URL}.. I am still confused as to why the program would not create an instance of an object when I used the 8 bit paths (i.e. progra~1)

Shell Command Launches An App Differently Than Running The Executable
Sep 1, 2009I have a legacy vb6 application that uses a shell command to launch a newer .net application. It's a very simple command, just launches an app. Here's the problem. When I run the .net app through the shell command, it tries to connect to a database that is not referenced in it. If I double-click the .net executable, it runs just fine and connects the way it is supposed to. Normal, no problems. Only when I run it from the shell command do I have problems. I have checked everything I can think of and simply can not come up with a reason why the app would behave differently when launched from a shell command.
View 3 RepliesCommand Line Switches - Keeping Command Window Open?
Feb 24, 2010I am using the following code to run defrag and to analyze if the C: drive requires defragmentation:
Dim analyze As Process = System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("C:WindowsSystem32defrag.exe", "C: /a /h /u /v")
This process runs through analyzing, runs it in normal mode & prints the progress to the command window.
My problem is that as soon as the process is complete the command window closes. I need it to stay open so that I can read the results.

Command Line Program To End Before Moving Onto The Next Command In Loop?
Feb 4, 2011I am using a CheckedListBox that is populated with Filenames (full path, i.e. C:TestTest.jpg)When I have the files that I want in the CheckedListBox I wish to click a Start Button which will process the list one at a time using an exe program that runs on the Command Line. There are arguments that need to pass to the command line as well as the file location in order for the program to process.I currently have it working but the issue is the loop finishes quickly and it is left up to the CMD.exe to finish the process. What I would like is for the LOOP to wait until each file completes processing before passing the command for the next file in the CheckedListBox.There some reasons I wish for it to work this way.
1) I would like to have a button that can Pause/Restart the Loop.
2) I would like to have a button that can Stop the Loop so the whole process can end.
3) I would like to have the Loop remove each file one by one from the CheckedListBox after it has been processed.
4) I would like to display a Message once all the files have been processed.
5) And if it were possible I would like to report the status either by text or a progress bar showing where it is at in the process.
6) And the ability to add some error handling if possible.
Since the Loop finishes so quickly as it just passes the command to the command line using the & as a seperator it is the command line that is handling the rest of the process. Because of this there is not control over it in the GUI.The code I am using allows the Command Line text to display in the Form so it won't open up a seperate window to run CMD.exe. This is the desired affect as I would like everything to appear to run from within the Form itself.

Pass Parameters From MSAccess To My .exe ?
Jan 29, 2009I've created an exe that is a ticket management system for in-house debugging, etc... It uses the same database that is accessible via MSAccess. In order to create a seamless work environment, one of the supervisors wants employees to be able to see data from the tables the exe uses without actually opening the exe and looking up the record. That's no problem since it's all the same db, but they also want to be able to open that ticket with the click of a button...instead of opening the exe and doing the search themselves, they want to just *click* and have the appropriate ticket open in front of them. I have no clue where to even start to do this....

View 4 RepliesPass Parameters With Different Namespaces?
Feb 15, 2010I have a bunch of methods that do some formatting on data that is contained in a structure. I'm passing the structure to the methods as a parameter. The problem is that the same structure is returned from 2 different webservices depending on the program flow (I did not create these services and cannot change them). So at one point I would be passing WebService1.Service.MyStruct and later I might have to pass WebService2.Service2.MyStruct.
Is there a way I can write only one method to handle both type of parameter? The struct is the same and only differs by namespace. I can overload the methods but I was wondering if there was another way to do this with reflection or something along those lines.
Why Does VS (C#) Default Parameters To Pass-by-value
May 11, 2010Just kind of curious about something: why does VS (vb and C#) default params to pass-by-value?I almost never need or want to pass anything by value. Maybe this is some reflection on the way I code. I would never manipulate a value type param directly; i would just return the new value from a private variable... and I just don't see the need to do the background work all the time to add copies of everything to the stack. Why wouldn't I just about always want to pass-by-ref?
