I don't think the admins and moderators would like that too much, that is spam.

Hello !
in vb.net 2010 , i have a tabcontrol with 3 tabs , on each of them i have some bound textboxes. The textboxes are bound when the form is open.
The problem is that if i try to use a value of these textbox , but i haven't click on tabs , the value is empty.if i click on the tabs on time , everything is ok.
what can i do?
thank you.

Move the code that fills the textboxes to the constructor of the form. There's probably an OnShow, OnActivate or an OnClick that does the databinding. Can you paste the code here?

Hello people,
I'm making a software which will only allow a set of pre-defined programs I list, when it detects a "no no" process it terminates it. I made a text file that the program loads and tells it which processes which not to terminate and/or suspend, currently the list I have for that is (see below)
System
Interrupts
smss
Whenever a user wants to save his or her new settings, a form pops-up with UAC (user-account control) -like behavior, it suspends all processes except critical ones (the list above), it does this just in case the computer has been hacked or been unauthorized remote control (yeah I'm pretty serious about it) but whenever I tend to do this, it crashes the system. What would I like to know is which processes that should not be terminated or suspended or NOT BE TOUCHED all together, in order for the computer to not crash, so that the user doesn't have to force restart the computer, by unplugging the cord or holding the power-button for a few seconds.
Simple Thanks and Regards,
Brandon T. H.

Cute. You're going to have to investigate that yourself. The problem you have is that not every Windows installation is the same. Certain installation options will vary your list depending on whats installed.
Frankly, I think this is a waste of time as suspending process, even non-system ones, can cause problems. There's just no way you're going to be able to tell which process can and cannot be suspended.

(1.) Would you suggest just disconnecting the internet using the shell command:
Shell ("ipconfig /release", vbHide)
(2.) or disabling all network and I.p. devices.
(3.) Check the process really deep to make sure it's not connected to anything important, then if it's not do whatever I please to it. But if it is, freeze the non-important parts of the program.
Then re-enable anything that has been mess with (see above).

1 and 2 do nothing but stop all TCP/IP traffic on the network interfaces. They have nothing to do with stopping process or OK'ing a process to launch.

important
First, how do you define "anything important"?? Then, how do you think you're going to implement this "check"??
Brandon T. H. wrote: freeze the non-important parts of the program.
You've already been told: You're not going to "freeze" anything. Attempting to do so can have unforseen consequences in the system.
Windows already implements the goal of your application in Group Policy.

That is not practical, the list of typical processes is a moving target. It differs from one Windows version to the next, from one PC to the next, and from one moment to the next, as Windows, your AntiVirus SW, and a lot of applications get updated any way their vendor sees fit. Forget it.
What you might do is run Windows in kiosk mode (Google!), and write one app that offers the user exactly those operations you want available, no more, no less; it would launch allowed processes, the user would never launch anything through Windows, only through your one app (which may or may not require a lot of Windows Explorer functionality). No guarantees, as I've never done that (kiosk mode, that is).

The best advice is "do not do this". Unless you have a very clear understanding of the Windows operating system internals this will cause you nothing but pain; followed by a lot of anger from your customers.
Binding 100,000 items to a list box can be just silly regardless of what pattern you are following. Jeremy Likness

You should never suspend a process you don't know its purpose. By the way, if you suspend a process that own a resource, then other process won't have access to it so you can create deadlock particularly if you try to suspend a lot of processes and some process will have problems like timeout.
It is impossible to know what process are critical as it vary in time. Say you are printing, then if you suspend related process chances are that you will scrap the output. And it might get worst if a program is saving data to a file.

I am working on an MVC3 web application using VB, and need to have a countdown that updates itself on the page.
would highly appreciate any assistance for this.
|
|
|
|
|
Assistance with "what" exactly? Creating a countdown or displaying it? What have you tried?
I'd imagine that a simple JavaScript might do the trick. Does it need to do anything else when done with counting?

I tried using javascript countdown but it does not work in my environment 
yes it needs to inform the page when the countdown is over.
this is part of a timed quiz I am working on, and when the time is finished, it should provide feedback to the server part so that editing is stopped.

That's where these things are usually done. What's wrong with the environment?
Does it allow VBScript? Seems that you'd want to do the counting on the client

my environment is MVC RAZOR, and javascript compatibility is quite limited.
|
|
|
|
|
What does "quite limited" mean? Can or can't you execute JavaScript on the browser?

it depends on the libraries used: some are compliant and some are not, thus finding one that works is close to impossible.

Hello,
I want to make an application which writes and reads the records from a binary file and to search the records according to various parameter of each record from the file efficiently. How could I do this job using VB 2010?
|
|
|
|
|
Binary files to store and retrieve data consistently and efficiently are called "databases". What you are suggesting is writing your own database, which is a cool excercise. If you don't have the time to learn how a database works internally, then you'd best use an existing database-application. Sqlite and SqlCE would use local (binary) files that you can query easily.

Hello all,
Whenever I run my program, it gives the error "32-bit processes cannot access the modules of 64-bit processes," since my program is 32-bit and that it reads (basically) every 64-bit processes start-up path, and terminates it or keeps it alive to make sure it's the real program. So how can I build my program in 64-bit.
