Hi
You can iterate though the processes running on the machine to see if one is running with the same name as the current application. Code would look like

Dim currentProcess as Process = Process.GetCurrentProcess
Dim allProcesses as process() = process.getprocessesbyname(currentProcess.ProcessName)

For each process as Process in allProcesses
If process.Id = current.Id then continue for
If [Assembly].GetExecutingAssembly().Location.Replace("/", "\") = currentProcess.MainModule.FileName Then
'There is another version running
Throw new exception("Application already open")
end if
next

Thats just entered but should give you a good idae of how to code this...

Hey

Well you could parse the file for the tag you are looking for in this case , then get the tag and each tag then you know you are on the next row, repeat this until the

until the

tag and repeat the whole process.

You could do this by getting the whole file then loading it into memory and parsing it or using the StreamReader class.

Then display the information in the way you choose.

You can use msdn for any help but most of this problem is just working out the logic of what you need (which is explained above)

Hope this helps

Dataset problem when threading

penguin50004-Jul-07 9:27

Hi,
I'm using VB.NET 2005 Express, and I'm having a go at teaching myself about threading as I want a marquee progress bar displayed on my form whilst it fills a table in a dataset.
On my form, I've got a textbox for a database name, and a textbox for simple Select SQL statements.
What I'm finding is that when I press 'Go', it populates the DataGridView perfectly, and my progress bar is displayed as I had wanted. However, what I then find is that if I change the contents of the database textbox, or the contents of the SQL textbox, and press 'Go' again, it either doesn't do anything to the DataGridView, or it completely falls over.
I'd really appreciate it if you could point me in the right direction to suggest some improvements to the very raw code shown below:

table adapter null value question

When my app fills a table adapter with values, null values go in just fine. Doesn't matter what types the values are. But, in a separate operation, when I try to insert a row, I get null value exceptions, even for the values declared as NULLABLE. I guess I need to test each value by using .hasValue, but what I don't understand is why the fill works with no problem and the insert doesn't.

Re: table adapter null value question

Hi Ken,

First of all, you probably mean that your app fills a DataSet with the use of an adapter.
Something like MyAdapter.Fill(MyDataset). The DataSet aparently is set to ignore restraints, so the fill operation, which is basically nothing more than a read operation, works just fine. When you use your adapter's InsertStatement, you actually tell it to create new data in the source table (database). All therefore depends on the design of the table in your data source (database?), from its properties you can see which fields must receive a value.

Hope this helps,

Johan

My advice is free, and you may get what you paid for.
