I have an MS access database that has fomrs with buttons to do certain tasks - a "console" or "toolkit". I am trying to run cmd.exe as the local administrator using this command....
Call Shell("C:WINDOWSsystem32
unas.exe /noprofile /user:administrator cmd.exe")
If my domain account is added to the local administrators this works fine (it asks for a password - is there any way round this?)
If i visit another PC in the domain on which i am not a local administrator, it doesnt work and i don't know why In both scenarios i can manually browse to cmd.exe and right click and runas a differnt user without any problems.Also, is there a more efficient way of running this command?

I am really confused! My program doesnt work if I dont have visual studio here in my pc. To test it I have uninstalled visual studio. But my program doesnt work though flash player is present there(I have used flash animation in first form). To be more sure about it I have installed Flash. But its not working! That means flash animation file(.swf) is not making problem! It needs support from visual studio to start. Doesnt it mean that some files are not attached with setup file as a result it needs visual studio to run? Let me tell you how do I create setup file of my program.[code] Application Folder> Create another shortcut & bring it to User`s Programs Menu>Folder(program`s name as folder`s name)

View 2 RepliesThis is the strangest thing, I can not figure out why this is happening. When I delete a radio button from my form which is used to filter data in a database Form_Load stops working.My project consists of a database and a web browser. The database has a search filter options.[code]For some reason it didnt load my settings on start up. I made a button which displayed True/False in a text box to check if it was saved in my settings, it was, it just didnt want to load. So I deleted it and everything broke! Nothing in the code is referenced to the RadioButton or its code.
Have I done something wrong or is VB just messing with me? There is obviously a bunch of more code, I just posted what I think is relevant to the issue. If you feel something is missing, tell me and Ill post it. ied to change the RadioButton with a CheckBox, and I changed the code from "Me.ExampleTableAdapter.FilterHide..." to "Me.Example TableAdapter. Fill...", which is the same as in Form_Load. It works if it starts checked. If I remove this code or delete the CheckBox nothing works even though the same code is in Form_Load. If I start off with the CheckBox in an Unchecked state nothing loads, if I check it everything except the Browser works for some reason.
I have a trouble making this code work. When executed, it just creates a correct (with the correct name) file with the extension .txt but the the actual text inside .

I am using Visual Basic 2010. I use successfully webclient downloadfile to download a file from a remote website. Now I want "protect" downloading so one have to "login" before to download the file. (i.e. I should like it is not possibile to simply type [URL] to download the file and so the downloading is possible only by my VB app.) I "protect" the website by a login page. I try to use webclient.credential(username,password) but the system message is error HTTP 404 (page not found).
View 4 Repliesrecently discovered the My.Computer.Network.DownloadFile method and would love to use it to download files from a website (https://www...). I can include a username and password in the DownloadFile parameter list,but will it send the password in plain text? If so, is there a way to send an encrypted password?
There seem to be many ways to download files. What are the advantages or typical uses of each?
I have tried using the My.Computer.Network.DownloadFile method but unfortunately it is slow.
Executing the simple command below takes ~5-10 secs, which I would say is a lot longer than expected for downloading a 9 kb file.`My.Computer.Network.DownloadFile("http://www.google.dk", "j: emp est.html")
