yes you are right Eddy Vluggen. But i want to start/stop exe's, not registered services alone. also, I want to make the commands simple, for example, by giving list of numbers to choose and choosing the number runs something or brings another list of choices.

You can use the GetProcesses[^] method to generate a Proces class for all executables on the remote machine Smile | :)

Starting and stopping executables is done over the Process class, if you have the required permissions. Services can't be killed that way, hence the suggestion to use the SC.exe command.

That would enable you to start/stop executables and to start/stop services. If that's not what you want then I have misinterpreted the question.

Yes Exactly. I want console-application that shows a menu,but then do you mean I can use The Process class in the console application and that is enough?

Yup, should be enough to start or stop processes on another computer Smile | :)

That's not a standard component from the .NET framework; you'll have to search for a third-party library that offers a similar control or write your own.

I have done something similar, which was a borderless progress form with an animated gif, and a background worker on it. You just hook up to the DoWork and RunWorkerCompleted events as normal.

Having said that, although it worked fine in a small scale application, for a larger app I ended up writing my own threading code. Ideally the window should be modeless. But then you have to intercept all mouse and keyboard messages to ensure the end user cannot click elsewhere.

The window should be modal to prevent the user from making any action while it is processing... I tried to making a separate window with animated GIf and called it under another thread but it still doesnt work..
can you give me a sample how will i do it..

thanks in advance..

Could be a largish code chunk. I'll see if I can slim it down. The key though is that the window is launched on the main GUI thread, but performs it's work on a secondary thread.

Events from c# DLL not visible in VB7 project (Visual Studio 2008)

Good morning,
I just stubled into a decent problem.
We develop DLL's with C# and VB7. Now my colleague wanted to use one of my C# dll's in his VB7 project.
Unfortunately the IDE does not bring up the events...
Here is the code of the event implementation:

public delegate void EmailAttachmentAmountChangedHandler();

[Browsable(true)]
public event EmailAttachmentAmountChangedHandler EmailAttachmentAmountChanged;

protected virtual void OnEmailAttachmentAmountChanged()
{
if (EmailAttachmentAmountChanged != null)
{
EmailAttachmentAmountChanged();
}
}

Nothing decent...
Please would somebody be so kind and tell me why the event is not visible?
Is that a mistake I made or just VS2008...

Thanks a lot in advance,
kind regards
Hoernchenmeister

VB7?? Are you saying that your component was written in Visual Studio 2008 and he's using VB.NET 2002/2003??

There is one problem that I see. If you code is going to run in his process (and not a seperate process,) it's going to have to be able to run under .NET 1.x instead of 2.0. You cannot load two different versions of the .NET CLR in the same process.
