Thanx for the suggestion Bob,
Tried:
extProcess = System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("POWERPNT.EXE", filename);
and result is the same.
I will go with Giorgi's suggestion and see if it helps.
Thank you both guys.

You need to use the proper command line arguments: http://pptfaq.com/FAQ00528.htm[^]

Thomas, thank you for your suggestion, I have tried the command line arguments but still my code does not wait for PowerPoint to exit.
Giorgi, I have modified and used the code that you have linked. But the Process that executes the pps file exits in no time, I could not catch any of the events through POWERPNT.exe when I added to ProcessWatcher.
I also tried to watch my own executable but it did not fire events too. I am not sure if I did all correctly I will keep trying for while.
Funny (or should I say sad for me) I am using the same method with Visio, but the code executes just as I have expected. When I call "xdsfr.vsd" (which I have exported in previous operations) my executable hangs up operation and waits until Visio exits...

I have found the error.
And it is not related to the code that I have given.
For anyone who encounters the same mistake, here is my experience:
Since I use the POWERPNT.EXE in my previous operations, the Process for this executable is not properly disposed thats why I can still see the POWERPNT.EXE in my TaskManager/Processes tab. (This happens before the code in above posts is executed.)
Thats why when my code executes it seems that it cannot attach itself to POWERPNT.EXE.
When I managed to dispose POWERPNT.EXE process before executing the code, everything worked just fine. 
Thanks for help guys,
Regards

This code works fine for me.
object missing = System.Reflection.Missing.Value;
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application excel = default(Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application);
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Workbook wb = default(Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Workbook);
excel = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application();
wb = excel.Workbooks.Open(@"c:\test.xls", missing, missing,
missing, missing, missing, missing, missing, missing, missing,
missing, missing, missing, missing, missing);
excel.Visible = true;
Check that the file you are trying to open definitely exists. Try testing out just this block of code in a separate test application.
[BTW: If you use <pre> </pre> tags around your code it makes it easier to read.]

hello
my Question is about Multi Threads On Multi Processor platforms.
how to be Implement Multi Threads in C# on Multi Processors that the Processors have multi core (e.g 4 core for per Processors).
Distribute of Thread Between core done by OS or done by appliction programer ????
|
|
|
|
|
The distribution is done by the Operating System.
If you want to implement extra threads, then check out the BackgroundWorker-component. There are multiple articles on the CodeProject that explain both the BackgroundWorker and how to create threads from code.

What Operating System does you main server use?
|
|
|
|
|
Windows Server 2003

The Link which u have send is the desktop Application.I have tryed that also but it could not help me out.What i want is for Web Application....
Plz Its Urgent for me.....
ThankQ

Do you want the list of the names of the computers attached to your local network?
Or do you want to know the name of the computer over the internet?
--Edit--
The word "Urgent" is ignored here. Everyone is in a rush these days

Ah, lots of people with questions tend to add the phrase "urgent". We're not being paid, so we don't like to be rushed..
I downloaded the source-code that was attached to the article, and have modified it to work in a web-environment. The modifications are simple; added two using-directives and removed exception-handling. Also, I added the NetworkBrowser-class to the code-file of the ASP.NET page. The rest of the code hasn't been modified.
The code below is a simple webpage, which uses the code from the aforementioned article;

}
then it is showing my computer name only.But i want all the users Computer Names.
Thank You.....

The code which you have sent is same as the link which you have sent.I am working for the web application but you have given the code for desktop application....

True!
anithagaraga wrote: .I am working for the web application but you have given the code for desktop application....
It is not. The example is a desktop-application, but the code to retrieve the computer-names can be used in both. I have posted an example of how to use this code from a webpage a few posts' ago.
Look for yourself, here it is;
http://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/View.aspx?fid=1649&msg=2775380
That code runs in a browser and shows a Listbox that contains all the names of the computers that are present in the local network.
Good luck

But its not working boss....  i am not getting any result in the Listbox....
|
|

Can you see a list of computers when you open the Windows Explorer? Please check the node "My Network Places\Entire Network\Microsoft Windows Network".
Are there more computers in the list, or can you only see your own computer there?
|
|
|
|
|
no i can't see my computer name also.....I am getting empty listbox when i run the application...
|
|
|
|
|
I'm sorry, seems I cannot help here.. 
|
|
|
|
|
That's the problem with just handing over code. There's no attempt on the part of the receiver to try and understand it and modify it to their own needs.

Hi,
First of all Thanks alot for helping me yesterday.I have done some changes in that code & right now its working.....Thanks Boss...
