I know where the exe is - the whole reason I started this thread was because when I double clicked the exe a console popped up, executed the code, sent a bunch of e-mails and then just sat there. I was hoping it would close itself after finishing.
So let me start again because I am not...
if you look at my code there is a sub-routine at the bottom that creates and sends the mail. I pass it the subject text and the body text as arguments:
Sub SendEmail(ByVal subject As String, ByVal body As String)
Try
Dim insMail As New MailMessage

layers(0, 0) =...
just sits there
thanks for the reply but now the console just sits there... and if I try to manually close it I get a message from windows saying that I shouldn't close it b/c a process may still be running...
any thoughts?
Hi,
I'm trying to figure out how to get the console window to close itself after the code has been executed.
My Sub Main() ends with:
Console.ReadLine()
which I seem to need in order to close the window manually without getting a message from windows saying that I can't close it down...
