I'm making a program from witch one could run an application with different credentials.I can compile the program successfully, but when I press the button to run the program I get the following error: Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit, the application will close immediately.The system cannot find the specified file.The code behind the button is as follows:
Dim myProcess As System.Diagnostics.Process = New System.Diagnostics.Process()
myProcess.StartInfo.FileName = "c:
un.bat /user:kreathyr c:getlogin.exe"
myProcess.Start()
Getlogin.exe does nothing but show the logged in username and run.bat utilizes the runas command.

View 1 RepliesI wrote this VB program to be able to throw a device we developed into programming mode where we use an ATMEL Flip installer to upload new firmware. I can program one device after another running the application off of Visual Studio Express 2010 or Visual Studio 2010, but when I go to publish this file and run it on another machine, it becomes unstable and crashes after each upload. On those same computers if I run the raw unpackaged program under Visual Studio Express, the system does not crash, and I can program devices repeatedly.
View 5 RepliesLet's say 10 desktop shortcuts, all with different names/icons, point to and can start the same exe application from the same directory. Is there any means for the application to know the distinct name of the shortcut that was doubled_clicked. Also is there any means for a running application to know if it was started by command line, by a double_click on the exe, by a double_click on a shortcut that points to it, or by another process' call?

View 1 RepliesI am writing a program (that i have recieved a lot of help with) that creates input files for another program. The bridge between the two programs is a program that has been named the task manager as like the windows task manager it shows what tasks are being done/have been done/are about to be done (or executed)
What i would like to know is how can i run the already installed bridge program from my program? Do i need to run it by opening the executable that contains it? Or by declaring the bridge program as a type/structure/class and going from there to open it?If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much room

View 6 RepliesSo I'm writing this VB.NET application, and it's doing things. But whenever I press a button to start some process, it does what it does except I can't click the window until it's finished. Otherwise the whole thing freezes. This essentially stops me from doing more than 1 thing at a time, because if I click another button (or anywhere) when something's running, it just freezes my program.
View 1 RepliesAt user login, launch an app I have created. This app opens a web site in a webbrowser control, logs the user in to the web site, and parses links from the resulting web page. These links are links to launch citrix sessions on another farm.
Create another app that appears on the start menu for the logged in user. User clicks on this app, it communicates with the launch app to basically click the href associated with the citrix app within the webbrowser control. Then this app will go away...
I have already coded the first app and figured out how to click links within the webbrowser control. What I can't figure out is how to go about implementing the second app, that runs as a separate app, but communicates with the first app to do its business. I see a plethora of options such as MFC, AppDomains, RPC, and so on. My question is which is the best practice to have one app interact with another and have the other app take actions based on that interaction? I prefer to stick completely to vb.net.
A good example of how I would like this to work - a web browser (IE, FF, whatever) is open on the desktop, user clicks a link in an email, link opens in running browser. An action in the mail client causes action in the browser.
