Trust me, I would much rather do it Craster's way since almost all of the QE testing is done through RDP connections anyway but that's not an option. My manager wants a script and I was told by two colleagues of mine at other companies that removing the standard logoff/shutdown methods is not something I should do in a production environment.
Thank you Psycho Extreme for giving me the code but I still don't know which call I should use so I can't move forward. I've searched microsoft groups, google groups and so many scripting websites and message boards, and no one seems to know the call and/or no one seems to have attempted this before. There arn't any examples out there. I don't know how I'm going to figure this out. In the meantime I have another question for any of you out there:
Is it possible to intercept another program's WM_QUERYENDSESSION message? If I was to go this route to abort shutdown, that's what I would need to do, right? Whenever someone tried to logoff/shutdown, my script would run everytime via group policy, check for VMware's executible, and, if found, intercept VMware's WM_QUERYENDSESSION message to return "0" so that the OS wouldn't shutdown or logoff. Now that I think about it, that's actually starting to sound like something a hacker would come up with. I don't want to go there. That sounds like high level programming which I can't learn in a month (when this project is due) and I don't even think I could do that in a script.
Forget that first question. Try and answer this: Would I have to intercept VMware's WMQ message or can I send this message directly from my script if VMware's executible is found? Sorry for these hard questions. I'm just trying to figure this out.

Hello
How to get image from server into imagebox when clicking button? So what is the code I need to write in button? I am making a web page.

Do NOT repost the same question again and again in the same day. It'll just get you ignored for being impatient. We come here to answer questions in our SPARE TIME, not on your demands.
If you're making an ASP.NET web application (Web Forms), then ask your question in the ASP.NET Forum.
I'm not expert in ASP.NET apps, but I would imagine it has something to do with Server.MapPath().

Are you referring to the web server, a SQL server, need more information for this request. You can also Google[^] your question as well and finds lots of sample code.

I am using the HelpProvider Control with a *.chm file created (sort of) through the Help Workshop. When the F1 key is pressed, a help window automatically opens to display the selected help page. Is there some way to set the size and placement of the help window that automatically opens?

Hi all...Im hoping someone can help us.
For our project, we need to obviously create unique ID's in our tables as one always has to. But we want to include alphabetic characters. For example, in our landlord subsystem, it should generate LL002.
Currently we simply just loop through the collection, add one more, and then concatenate it with the "LL".
However, this seems to work sometimes and not others...so it doesnt seem very stable.
Is there any other way to do it? oh- we using visual basic 2005
thanks

did you try taking the (max) from the table and then add 1 to it?
|
|
|
|
|
Yes we did try take the max out, but then the problem comes in when a record is deleted. For example, if we have ten records but number five is deleted, then since there is now nine records, the next ID will be number 10. But number 10 still exists.
We then tried to simply generate a random number but there is something wrong with our block of code as only the 3 same numbers keeps getting generated.

If you use the Max(column) to insert all your records then the behavior that you speak of wouldn't happen. Meaning, if you delete a record, the key for each record has not been altered. So if you take the Max(column) for the new record the answer will be LL010 still and you add 1 to it. So you will be inserting the new record with the key of LL011.
Select Max(KeyID) From Table 'returns LL010 add 1 and insert new with LL011
You would only be inserting LL010 again if the user deleted LL010 otherwise adding one will always result in a non-duplicate key.

Standard question #1:
What do you mean by "not working"?

Heres an idea, assuming SQL Server
Add 3 fields to the table
IDNo int Identity(1,1)
Prefix char(2) default 'LL'
TableID varchar(20)
Add a calc in your insert proc to add prefix & IDNo together and stick into TableID. I think the IDNo may only be generated by the commit of the insert transaction.
You can probably do the last step with a trigger but I loathe triggers so would not recommend it.
OR
do a select top 1 on the id, increment and save with the prefix, caveat this will be nasty on a high use system.

Hi
I have a VBA application that reads from a config file on a network drive. It does this fine.
However when I use the File System Object to look for directories below the network path eg:
FSO.FolderExists(path) where path is \\DansComputer
It returns false.
Does this function work accross a network and if so what am I doing wrong. (It has worked fine locally).
Thanks
Dan

\\DansComputer is the machine name not a folder name

Thanks for your reply - how do i get it to look at a seperate machine then?
I had assumed it would just see something like \\DansMachine\Work as a folder.
Thanks
Dan

You have to supply the complete UNC name to the root of a file share at least:
\\servername\sharename\
or somehwere below that:
\\servername\sharename\folder\folder\...
|
|
|
|
|
You first need to share the folder that you wish to access on DansMachine for example give the folder a name like DansSharedFolder then your path variable value should be something like \\DansMachine\DansSharedFolder

Kind of like the "UniBomber". Shows up at random, voting posts a 1 that really don't deserve it.
