When my code reaches the Dim MyShortcut... line the form disappears, no exception no windows error reporting the form just vanishes with the process still running.
Friend Sub CreateShortcut(Location As String, Target As String)
Dim MyShortcut As IWshRuntimeLibrary.IWshShortcut = CType((New IWshRuntimeLibrary.WshShellClass).CreateShortcut(Location), IWshRuntimeLibrary.IWshShortcut)
MyShortcut.TargetPath = Target
MyShortcut.Save()
End Sub
Please ask if you need any more details. I wasn't sure what could be causing the issue so didn't know what else to add.
Thanks in advance!!

Hello everyone i'll keep it short and simple.
I want the app to determine if the current app (which is called "Managment") is on startup. If it is on the startup then do nothing.. if it isnt there put it on startup.
What is wrong with this? And is there any way without admin rights?
Dim app As String = My.Computer.Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey("SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run", True).GetValue("Management")
If app = Nothing Then
My.Computer.Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey("SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run", True).SetValue(Application.ProductName, Application.ExecutablePath)
End If
As mentioned in my comment, you are looking in the wrong place.
Using subKey As RegistryKey = Registry.CurrentUser.OpenSubKey("SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run", True)
If subKey.GetValue("Management") <> Nothing Then
'It's there on start-up
Else
'Just add the key....
End If
End Using

I want to remove a line or a text from my application settings .
example: My.Settings.Bookmarks.
here is information in my settings of Bookmarks:
Name: Bookmarks | Type: System.Collections.Specialized.StringCollection | Scope: User.
Can anyone help me please because it's important
Here from MSDN
StringCollection.Remove
StringCollection.RemoveAt
The first one requires the string to remove, the second one the index of the string in the collection.
Suppose to have
StringCollection sCol = new StringCollection();
sCol.Add("STEVE");
sCol.Add("JOHN");
sCol.Remove("STEVE");
Really simple

I am developing a little game in lua (using love2D), and what I want to do is serialize an image in order to send it to another peer. So, I simple get the string description of the image file, then I write it on the socket.
The problem is that nothing arrive to destination (neither with the loop-back address). I also tried to pass the string to the print function but, again, nothing happen.
How is it possible? What can I do?

is there a way to count how many times a text appear on a worksheet?
im sorry about my question but I don't know how to start.
thanks.
the short answer is "Yes"
Here are a few ways:
in cell A1 put the following formula:
=COUNTIF(2:1048576,"here") + COUNTIF(B1:XFD1,"here")
this will count the number of times "here" appears on the worksheet
if you'd like to use vba, this should return the expected result:
Sub test()
Dim wordCount As Long
wordCount = Application.WorksheetFunction.CountIf(ActiveSheet.Cells, "here")
End Sub
I'm sure there are a handful of other ways to go about it, but hopefully this will get you started.
The longer answer is (as mentioned in the comments): Please be a bit more descriptive in your ask so someone can tailor an answer to fit your specific requirements. That, or google it.

I want to take value from barcode reader to textbox. I have tvs 101 platina (barcode reader)
i am new in vb.net plz provide me solution.
I'm just giving a start :
1st here is a programme manual: http://www.tvs-e.in/pos/pdf/Programming_Guide_BS-L101-Platina.pdf
2nd the article that i used before : http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/296533/Using-a-bar-code-scanner-in-NET
What you have to do:
Scanner is similer to keyboard. so you need key event listener for focusing on text field.
programme the scanner to send the special key code for start and end of scan.(it will be given in the manual)
