Yes as a matter of fact I did. I made it specifically for recording an application process, and when the application terminated, so did the recording. However I removed that specific functionality. So you will need to provide some logic that tells it how long to record. Just take a look at my...

Well thank you for making that clarification. I guess using "script" was not the right word. Like you said the correct terminology would help. I'm actually running the code in an interpreter which is executing the source code directly (inside its own virtual machine). So I am running VB using...

I'm thinking of using the EventWaitHandle class to make a thread wait until custom events are raised. However I have never used it before and I could use some suggestions. Can somebody please tell me what the difference is between using Dim ewh As EventWaitHandle ewh = New...

Hey everyone, I am curious to know whether or not it is possible to use a script to listen to listen for an event. To be more specific I am trying to monitor Excel for certain events to take place, and when they do I need to write data to a port over a remote server. My first thought is to run...

I am currently trying to write a memory stream to a file by using the following method: MemoryStream.WriteTo(FileStream). At least this is what I found online. However I don't know how to initialize FileStream or use it properly. To be quite honest, I'm not sure exactly what MemoryStream does...

Hello, thanks for the reply and the link. I was able to assemble some code to get the screenshots I need. However I have seen mixed results over the web on whether or not .NET can actually create animated GIFS. This forum post for example says that the GDI+ Gif encoder doesn't support the...

Hey Everyone, I am looking to create some functionality that will create GIF animations of whatever is happening on my desktop. The animation doesn't need to be long, maybe 6 seconds at the most. I have done some research on the subject and have various code snippets here and there but nothing...

Are there any security risks with TeamViewer for Windows 10? I haven't used TeamViewer yet, but I want to use it to share the view of my desktop to teach somebody some programming concepts. However, is there any risk that TeamViewer can be used maliciously on the other end to take control of my...

Hi, so I have been doing more research on COM and I found some resources that may or may not solve my problem. I wanted to run it by you guys to see what you think. I did that registration free COM search online and found that you can register a DLL by using a manifest file instead of the...

When you click the "Play" button in VS to test your code does it write to the registry to do so?

How can you tell if a DLL file has been registered? I am looking at registering a DLL for use in Excel. It is a third party DLL created for a CAD application. As it is, Excel cannot reference the DLL so my guess is that means it isn't registered. Also, can any .NET Class library (DLL) be...

Okay, so as I understand it, installing a COM library is the same as registering your DLL file? Also, in my .DLL file, if I reference other namespaces in my code for my desired functions, will Excel be able to query those namespaces? I haven't been able to access certain functions inside a DLL...

Hmm, yea I don't think I will be able to install a COM library. Is there a work around?

Hey Everyone,　 I am hoping that somebody can steer me in the right direction here. I have been utilizing an application I built in Visual Studio that does some remoting between Excel (client) and another application. It utilizes the Worksheet Selection Change event to send data to the...

Well, it is for some functionality that is not supported in a CAD program. I already contacted the company to see if it was supported but it isn't. To be quite honest, I don't know where to start doing my research. All that I want to accomplish is to be able highlight specific parts in a list...

I am wondering on what the alternatives are when a particular API does not offer the solutions you need? I understand that this is probably problem specific to any particular API so it might be hard to say generally, but in any case, how would you workaround a problem if the API does not have...

I found an online tutorial on how to put together a windows form app that resides in the system tray (or more presently called the notification area). However, I am having one other issue. The application loads just fine in the notification area but most of the time my code doesn't get the excel...

Hello, everyone. I have some basic knowledge of VB.Net and some experience here and there making some different apps. Nothing fancy. However, I really need some help putting together a windows form app. I was trying to accomplish a specific task using a console app. I am designing an excel...
