I'm assuming you're talking about VB6 or VBA. Yes, all strings in VB6 are BSTR's, which supports Unicode.

I need to ping a system and need check the result (Reply from or Request Time Out)

so i used CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

but this does not run on Win 2000

This is the error i am getting
"System.MissingMemberException: Public member 'Exec' on type 'IWshShell2' not found. at Microsoft.VisualBasic.CompilerServices.LateBinding.LateGet(Object o, Type objType, String name, Object[] args, String[] paramnames, Boolean[] CopyBack)"

I need a function which can run on any win OS.
Need help urgently

the function i am using

Dim strComputer As String = IP
Dim objShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Dim objScriptExec = objShell.Exec("ping -n 2 -w 100 " & strComputer)
Dim strPingResults = LCase(objScriptExec.StdOut.ReadAll)

If InStr(strPingResults, "reply from") Then

Drag and drop applications in VB

Why are you using Windows Scripting when you can do the exact same thing using the .NET Frameworks Process[^] class?

Writing to the debug immediate window

In VB6 to view values on the Debug window all you done was debug then the variable.

How do you do this on vb.net?

I have tried Debug.WriteLine("Number is: ") but this does not appear in the option debug\windows\immediate

I must be doing something stupid.

Thanks in advance.

According to your code, you didn't concatenate any variable. It should be:

Debug.WriteLine("Number is: " & VariableName)

You would basically need to rewrite it - and I can't think of any reason why you would want to do that... Confused | :confused:
