I am trying to run a vbs script through Task Scheduler. The code for the vbs script is Dim ObjExcel, ObjWB Set ObjExcel = CreateObject("excel.application") 'vbs opens a file specified by the path below Set ObjWB = ObjExcel.Workbooks.Open("FilePath\CombinePDFs.xlsm") 'either use the Workbook Open event (if macros are enabled), or Application.Run ObjWB.Close False ObjExcel.Quit Set ObjExcel = Nothing Then the Action in Task Scheduler is: Program/Script: "FilePath\CombinePDFS.vbs" With no added argument or "Start in." Trying to run this had caused it to run 20 minutes so far and it doesn't look

I would like to make use of my old mirror (by violet) which allow to trigger events when you put and take a rfid tag on/off a rfid tag reader. Using LibMirror I can program events in c# which is quite convienent. My idea is to lock and unlock my station when I take and put the rfid tag on the mirror. It is quite easy to lock the station thanks to 2 , unlocking however seems more difficult. Several posts 3 , 4 on SO show that's difficult but I would like to have an definitive answer. I must precise that I am not interested in any consideration of security, this much more for the sake of doing

I have a windows batch file in Windows 7 which does something with find. it starts with this: find /i /c.... But it says something like find /i is no medium or so. Then it just gives a list of every single file in the C:\ directory. Is there any new replacement for Windows 7? EDIT: If i hit find /? in cmd, it gives find: /? there is no such file or directory Igal Serban You probably have the posix find command installed on your computer. Type: where find.exe To locate it. You probably can change the path environment variable on your system so the system32 directory will be first. You could

I currently have a 32-bit PowerBuilder application that we are trying to port over to a Windows 7 64-bit environment. Realizing the obvious that PowerBuilder 10.5 was built previously before Window7 came out and the big also the obvious fact that this application was built within a Windows XP 32-bit environment. The 32-bit PowerBuilder application spits out the following error message when deployed on a Windows 7 64-bit machine. Application Terminated. Error: Invalid DataWindow row/column specified at line 44 in function ivvisiblecolumn of object objectwindow The database profile setup points

I'm trying to write some c++ code to use the ITaskbarList3, but I'm getting that error. I have confirmed that I am including shobjidl.h (but I checked and this file only defines up to ITaskbarList2). I have Visual Studios 2008 (SP1) and I have Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows Server 2008 installed. Does anyone know what I am missing? You need to install the Windows 7 SDK . That has an update shobjidl.h with ITaskbarList3. Or you can adapt the content of Windows 7 SDK related to ITaskbarList3 from the shobjidl.h into your code as virtual methods, don't forget their GUID you have to be careful

In windows 7, if one right clicks on the speaker icon in the taskbar, clicks playback devices, opens properties for one of the devices tab, then clicks the enhancements tab, one gets a list of filters ("Bass Boost" etc) that can be applied to that sound device. How can I register my own custom filter here? Please note that I am not an IHV - horrible hacks involving unsigned drivers, etc are acceptable, as this will be primarily for my own use. If you're an audio IHV you register them with your INF. The reference pages for them can be found here . Please note that to be used with Windows, sAPOs

I have the need to either prevent, or restrict, the termination of a VB.Net application. I have no problem with Admin killing the application, but not a user. I've been unable to come up with a solution for this. Is there maybe even a way to set local policy to prevent termination by non-admin? Note: I've seen this question asked before and people ask "why", assuming this is for a malicious purposes. This is a GUI app that MUST remain on top of the users windows per policy. Update: I know this is possible SOMEHOW... I have seen applications that, when I try to terminate them through the task
