User Can Change The Update Site With Out Building The Program Again With The New Site?
Oct 13, 2010
When i publish my program i choose to let the application check for updates via a website and if their is one update automatically when the program starts. Is their a way were on the main user form i can make it so that the user can change the update site with out me building the program again with the new site. I want to do this becuase the site i use goes down alot so when i changed the update url no one was able to download the update for the new update server.
I'm deploying a VB.Net app (VS 2010 Pro) that requiers the user click a command button to open IE to a financial WEB site and download informaion from the site. The app works fine in every detail when installed on the development computer. But, on the target computer when the command button is clicked an unhandled exception occurs which says: System.IO. FileNotFoundException:File Not found.My code behind the button is Shell("C:Program Files (x86)Internet Exploreriexplore.exe www,fidelity.com",AppWinStyle.NormalFocus)
This works fine on the development computer. Do I need a way to code this as a relative path? If so,can you tell me how this is done?Throughout the app I have written relative paths to needed files using paths like (Open(Environment. GEtFolderPath (Environment. SpecialFoldder.Desktop) + "File Name). They all work fine when deployed.
I am not sure if this is possiable but I am looking to build an application that will login to a web site, navigate the site and download files. I would like to do this all in code and able to run multiple instances of the program to get information from many different web sites. Is something like this possiable in VB.net?
Ive got an app that holds a list of site we have, At each site there are a few devices. The idea is when they click on a site all the details for the site are loaded and then a second thread sits and pings each device to see if its live. Im trying to do this in a seperate thread so if they click another site while its still pinging them it doesn't wait before it switches site. This all seems to be workling fine except if you click through the sites quickly, when you do that it will eventually come up with
Quote:
{"Collection was modified; enumeration operation might not execute."}
The error flags up on the "Next" line in "ThreadedPing"

I'm being asked to maintain several internal-only web apps for my company. For testing, after making my changes, I've created some staging sites which make use of separate databases. As such, if my users were to mistakenly use this site as if it were the production site, they may enter important data and wonder where it "disappeared" to thinking it was the production server.
I'd like to create a big banner of some sort across the top of the staging site (which ONLY appears on the staging site) to remind my users that they are on the test site. I'd like recommendations on the best way to do this, with the following considerations:
IDE: Visual Studio 2008 Server: Windows 2003 with IIS 6 Language: VB.NET 2.0
when i am surfing in one site,i want to see the another URL...without going URL directly access the login......for example this is the login page url i want know automatic login to this page [URL]
Currently I'm using a third party file hosting website (like mediafire) to upload my program and I update the link every time a new version is out.I know there are some ways to autoupdate the program but most of them need to own a website, which currently I don't have.So I was wondering if there could be a way to make an autoupdate using sites like mediafire.Example: I always delete old version of the program, on mediafire when someone try to access a deleted file page he gets redirected on a page which says "file deleted or invalid". So if the program find out that the file link redirect to that page it should inform the user about the new version.
Using Vb.Net 2003 Asp.Net 1.1 SqlServer 2005 I have to keep track of users just like this site does, I sayTracking but I don't mean for statistics I mean whenyou click a button to reply to a question your name is known.I need to know how that is exactly done, I need to do it right.If you can't tell how it is done, what is it called, is it sessions orsomething else so I can google it.I have a login and sent a cookie but I am stuck there.
right let me try to explain what i am trying to build.a bit of software which logs onto a website and downloads all of the users images i have found all the URLs etc and can build most of my vari

I have a 'health check' program that I have scheduled to run every 10 minutes. When it detects a problem, it sends a message to my cell phone.
Right now I have it checking databases by connecting to them, and trying to open them - that seems to work fairly well. I also have it checking web sites but all I'm doing to test them is[code]....

I'm trying to write a program that will get certain text from an intranet site, but there is a form for user name and password that I have to enter first. I found HttpWebRequest and HttpWebResponse and can use those, but how do I programatically log into the site so I can get the data I want?
I'm trying to write a vb.net program that will upload a file to a FTP site that has SSL (explicit, although I'm not sure what this means).The sample code and explanations I've Googled always assume when it's SSL that I'm using a client certificate. But I have no certificate to load.I simply need to login, accept their certificate and upload my file.When I accept their certificate am I actually installing it on the client? For example of FileZilla a box pops up and I just click on accept, then my login is complete.

I want to build a VB program that will go to a web site and pull out a specific piece of data.I am using VB Express 2010 not sure if it belongs in this .net forum.I am successfully getting to the website using WebBrowser.navigate()The data is provided to me in XML format and I am told that it is ready to be retrieved. They tell me to use XML Parser.When I go to their web site I see the data I need to pull out there is a column with tags in front of each piece, the piece I need is between <Vr0> and </Vr0>.I have no resources other than the net currently I do have a dummies book ordered but will be at least next week (at the earliest) before my first book arrives.Can you explain how I can sort through the data and pull out the data in XML format on a web site?
building a program at the moment that changes registry entries to turn on and change, and off proxy settings. This small program is going to be dropped on each persons desktop so they can easily turn on the proxy in work, and turn it off when they take their laptop home.
However, the proxy address changes depending on which company I am at. I would like to be able to make a single program, but have a "hidden" setting to change the proxy and store it in the program, and push a copy of the file out across the network to each machine. I tried to make it so the proxy address can be saved as a string in My.Settings, but it would have to be made as a User setting rather than an application setting to give it read-write access.The only other option I can think of is to hard-code the proxy address into the program, which really isn't ideal

Basically at work i have to manually log into the backend of our website and then process some actions like expiring the records on the results page, then i have to move to the next page and do the same...
I want to be able to automate this with a simple tool that has a webbrowser control in it and a few buttons that i can click. So for example there will be a Expire button which will expire all the records then click the next page and repeat the process until it has expired all records. At the moment i am clicking on buttons using the below:

I was just wondering if there is a better way to do this? At the moment i'm having errors where the clicks are being processed before the page has finished loading resulting in nothing happening.
