We are attempting to run a batch file that will result in a submission to a help desk ticket system. When we run the batch file from command line on our W2003 platform, it works successfully. When we run the same file, called from our vb program, using shell or process info, it does not. With shell, we can see the batch file being called, but it is not resulting in update to the help desk ticket system. The vendor of the system believes it is a security issue. We are signed on as Administrator while running this. We set security permissions of cmd.exe to include Batch, per KB867466. What else should we be doing or looking at?

Dear Expert, Why firefox browser always try to open my file after I published my VB application. This things happen in VS 2008? If anyone out there has the same problem like me. I have this problem since I installed firefox. If firefox has a problem with its browser when we use Microsoft Visual Studio? Do I need to set anything in my VS 2008 to avoid this thing happen?

I'm just getting started in VB.net using vb.net 2010 . I thought what I had left to do today was simple but not to be.I am simply trying to open a zip file that the user has selected.No mater how I have tried to send the filename (with quotes added, chr(34) & selfilename, set permissions, confirm file is found) I get Error 53 File Not Found.
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim SelFileName As String
Dim ReturnValue As Boolean
SelFileName = ListBox1.SelectedItem 'Contains the full path and filename

If I use the shell command: notepadID = Shell("C:\WINDOWS\system32\notepad.exe", AppWinStyle.MaximizedFocus)When note pad opens I want to control the fileopen box. I can use the SendKeys.SendWait("%(FO)") to get the box opened but then how can I control the initial directory and the file type filter? I would much rather open the fileopen box in code and control it that way. How can I use the code below to control the fileopen on a process that the shell command opened up? [code]

I know the "Process.Start" function, but it creates a new object of the cmd shell which terminates itself when the Python script is at its end. How can i open the original Windows Command Shell so that the Python file can run to its end without the box getting closed?

I need to open a *.py file in the shell (DOS) box, but it returns an error that no file was found at the specified path. But this path is completely correct. Unless Visual Basic are referencing to paths in another matter than C#? 'Cause I am developing in C# and referenced to VB to do this.

sorry if this is in the wrong area, but i dont think it is as complex as i/o..i dont think i am trying to "read" the text file. i have a .txt file named readme.txt in my resources and it is an embedded resource under build action. the file is a basic user instruction for the program. i have a menu item "RoT Instructions" that i want to open the text file in notepad so the user can read about how to use the program.

How do I open this .REG file in Visual Basic 2010?
I'm trying to make a program that will launch this registry file that I've put already in the Resources folder of the program.
BTW if you're curious it's not a harmful program I'm making.
So all I've done so far is put the file in the resources folder of the program, but I don't know how to actually launch it.

I have used the Process.start function to open an Excel file as shown in the code
Process.Start("report.xlsx") and it works perfectly well.
My question is can this function be used to open a particular worksheet called Report1 in the report.xlsx file. If so what would the code be.I have spent many hours trying to research this topic but without success.

Does anyone know if it is possible to open a firefox webbrowser in a form.Or does it take you default web browser as the webbrowser to open in form.
Eg - My Default Browser is Firefox - so does that mean the webbrowser control would be a firefox based one.

I have a project i am working on, I want to be able to make a choice in say a Treeview control, and in the code behind Click event i would like it to open a dynamic page in a new browser tab, My difficulty is that the Response.Redirect("http:xxx") opens it in the same browser tab that has focus i have tried to add Target=_blank but not certain if this is usable attribute of the response object, and i also believe if it did work it would be more like a pop-up than a new tab. i have searched for more than a week now and have found nothing that works.
Response.Redirect("~\PM\HTMLSched.htm")
(opens the page in the same tab)
'Dim url = "~\PM\HTMLSched.htm"

Setup and deploy for my project worked fine for a while allowing you to install my program and uninstall the old version, but now it installs two entries. I don't get it, before I got it do do that it would give an error that it needed to be uninstalled first. Now like I said I get two entries in the programs uninstall window. RemovePreviousVersions = true. I change the version number and update the product code. Even tried changing the upgrade code. I just don't get why it doesn't work anymore, and its really annoying! Also, is there a way that the setup file can just be one .exe rather then a setup file and a data file?

I would like to launch a command line exe I created. For now it's a test program that writes Hello World to the console. I can launch it, but the shell window it displays it in only stays for a split second.
I know I can add a line to my console mode program (readline). But I would like to control it from the process launch. I will be using console mode programs that I did not write myself, and many of them don't stall the output. I can't find the right properties and methods to control the default shell behavior!

This is just a general question, I need help with something on Visual Basic 2008. I do not know why, but as of late every time I open up a project in Vb it gives me something called an object browser. I try to find my forms so I can work on my program, but I can't find them. Has anyone else had this problem or knows how to fix it? I can't get to my forms!!
