View 4 Repliesi have made a program and added a update check button.If an update is available it lets the user know and if they click update a hidden webbrowser goes to the download address like:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
WebBrowser1.Navigate("http://mydomain.com/myprogram.exe") End Sub Well this works and prompts the user with a file download dialog(default for windows)
But say they have "myprogram.exe" on there desktop and try to save the new updated one there it will ask to overwrite and thats fine but the program is in use as they have click update.

My application has a total of 1 form. I have several modules, one of which is a module that handles a background worker dynamically. But what I need to be able to do is update a textbox from the background worker thread. Again, this code is contained within a module, not directly on the main form, so I am totally clueless as to how to make a reference to it. It's easy in WinForms, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to do it in WPF...

View 2 RepliesI am very very new to VB.NET and would like to ask a simple question. I want to create a vb.net program and allow visitors to a website to download this program. However, I prefer not to have visitors download a zip folder. I would like to have a program that just gives a prompt to save in a selected folder, once the saved file is selected it prompts the person to download, and then when finished prompts the person to run the program. The reason is twofold:
1. I don't like the extra step involved with unzipping the file. and 2. I don't like the visitors having to look for the "main" file program within the new downloaded folder. So is there any way to have just one file for others to download without having it in a zip folder?
I have a form and controls on from I work with background worker on my form and I want when I work with background worker in (for next) changed a data table example (mydt.clear()) or change a datagrideview..how to update controls on a form when we work with background worker? [code]
View 4 RepliesI am trying to figure out an easy way to add custom plugins for the app for additional features, without people having to download a whole new update each time.i guess the way i'd want it to work is,the program will auto detect the plugin file. Then, add's a specific value to either a button array, or add's a picture, etc.Once that button is clicked, it will open a new form designed the way i want it. from within the plugin itself.So its a module.What would be the easiest way to do this?

Then if it can't be downloaded from Microsoft why does this site [url]... still list it as being available for download. Doesn't anyone at Microsoft archive their old software just for the purpose of still having it around. If Bill Gates only knew what Microsoft has become since he drop out the scene he would be disgusted.

View 3 Repliesis it possible to call another program in the background? I'n doing a project that uses .net to control a camera. the camera is nikon, which has a sdk. unfortunately, the sdk is an unmanaged dll, from the research I did, people complained that it is difficult to use it in .net. actually, no1 has example. but the sdk has sample in vc++. so, I'm thinking maybe can build the control program by vc++, then use vb.net or c# to it and run it in the background. so, I do not have to mess the dll to .net.
