Shay Noy Windows Popup Watcher jeipiyaku13-Jul-09 22:09 jeipiyaku 13-Jul-09 22:09  Hi guys im trying do an application wherein it watches other applications activities. like for example my application will watch for any dialog box generated by the application specified in the settings. any idea on where should i start? Re: Windows Popup Watcher jeipiyaku13-Jul-09 22:16 jeipiyaku 13-Jul-09 22:16  btw im using vb.net Re: Windows Popup Watcher helelark12313-Jul-09 22:23 helelark123 13-Jul-09 22:23  Your question is to vast. You should more specify what you need, because it is complicated to answer you for this kind of question. Shay Noy Re: Windows Popup Watcher jeipiyaku13-Jul-09 22:37 jeipiyaku 13-Jul-09 22:37  thanks for your reply ok so let me make my question more specific. the core of the program is to watch a specific application for message boxes, dialog boxes, or error message boxes. then get the text from the message box then put it in a log file then preferably simulate a click event on the OK button of that message box lets say that an application generates that a message box saying that a file is missing id like to get that message then save it into a log file. hope this will explain clearly Re: Windows Popup Watcher [modified] helelark12313-Jul-09 22:49 helelark123 13-Jul-09 22:49  My question is, if I understood you right, do the "Watcher" application and the application that display the messageBox are the same one? If not, can they be the same application? If it is not same application, take a look at the following links: http://bytes.com/groups/net-vb/363935-extracting-text-another-application[^] http://www.dreamincode.net/code/snippet2117.htm[^] Shay Noy modified on Tuesday, July 14, 2009 5:14 AM Re: Windows Popup Watcher jeipiyaku13-Jul-09 23:26 jeipiyaku 13-Jul-09 23:26  nope the watcher will get the message in the message box then save it to a log file thanks for the links, will check later Database deployment. using VB .net Cory Kimble13-Jul-09 8:25 Cory Kimble 13-Jul-09 8:25  Is there a way that vb .net can help deploying a SQL database. I want a way I can create an install disc and have the user run the install disc and have the sql database with mdf files install. Does anyone know a way to do this? I know I can run the sql database installer from the setup, but how do I get the mdf files to automatically attach and be usable? I can't think of anything cool and nerdy to say. Re: Database deployment. using VB .net David Mujica13-Jul-09 8:53 David Mujica 13-Jul-09 8:53  You could write some TSQL to automate the creation of a database, logi, user, tables, views, indexes, etc, and have you clients execute the script.

Is there a way to attach a database using vb .net code? I can't think of anything cool and nerdy to say. No scripts David Mujica13-Jul-09 9:17 David Mujica 13-Jul-09 9:17  Hmm, I must have misunderstood you. I thought you were looking for a solution to "deploy" a database. To me "deploying" a database at a client site means that they have a server waiting for you and a database needs to be created, schema created and populated, then your application can run. If all you need to do is "attach", then why can't you just have your connection string stored in a configuration file and have it load at run time. I must be missing something. "deploy" and "attach" have different meanings for us. Maybe someone else can chime in a provide a soltion for you. Re: No scripts Cory Kimble13-Jul-09 10:40 Cory Kimble 13-Jul-09 10:40  Can you help me with this? I can create database (mdf) now I need to attach it to the sql instance. How can I do that in vb .net? I can't think of anything cool and nerdy to say.

There's a shedload of useful routines, mini applications and utilities in there.

Thanks. Re: how to convert any VB.NET code into C++.net Christian Graus13-Jul-09 7:43 Christian Graus 13-Jul-09 7:43  By hand, basically. C++/CLI is a bastard stepchild of .NET and C++, so I doubt there's tools to do it, like there is for C# and VB. However, if you can build your VB into a dll and call it from C++/CLI, that would work fine. Christian Graus Driven to the arms of OSX by Vista.

This would loose local variable names and comments of course, but it does allow you to avoid a separate dll file.

Ton C13-Jul-09 6:10 Ton C 13-Jul-09 6:10  I want to use Polish letters like ż, ł, ą, ę, ś, ć, and of course the capitals. VBA doesn't accept the normal "ALT GR +"-combination. Copy/Paste also doesn't work. Please can somebody advice? With kind regards, Ton C. Re: How to use special symbols in VBA? helelark12313-Jul-09 18:50 helelark123 13-Jul-09 18:50  I think that you have to install Polish font in your PC and change your control (Label, Textbox,...) font to this installed one. You can download Polish font from: http://www.kwintessential.co.uk/fonts/polish/download.html[^] Shay Noy Re: How to use special symbols in VBA? Ton C14-Jul-09 22:58 Ton C 14-Jul-09 22:58  Dear Shay Noy, I downloaded and installed the Polish fonts, as you advised. But it doesn't work. When I use ALT+GR+ I get completely different characters. Maybe you have an other suggestion? Thanks for your efforts anyway. Greetings, Ton C
