for anyone who was interested.. seems this is impossible using the WIN32_Process class, its made non interactive for security reasons apparently, guess it makes some sort of sence. gonna try and do it by creating a scheduled task with a small amount of time added to the system time.

*bump* no one got any suggestions?

Hi, Im trying to create a process on a remote computer, however i dont want the process to be hidden, i.e if the process is notpad.exe then i want a notepad to open on the remote computer. However my current code just runs the process and does not show the window. MINIMIZED_WINDOW is a...

Got it working, not an ideal solution by any means but did it by creating a batch file then running that from shell.. will slow my code down a hell of a lot when it has a list of machines to run the code on i think, never mind eh! Set txtTryingBat = fso.createtextfile(App.Path &...

returns correct paths for both source and destination as follows: copy "e:\nettools\vncinstall\winvnc.exe" "\\tomm\c$\program files\realvnc\winvnc\winvnc.exe" the above is also the exact line I use succesfully at a command prompt

Thanks for your suggestions. In the end i made the batch add a particular string to the end of the text file it was creating, then stuck a loop so that the code would not continue unless this string was present... ====================================== Do Until intEndTest = 1 Do...

justa thought i had may not work.. why not put a hidden frame under the area u want to trigger it and trigger on that instead.. never tried it so may not work

By default, the Shell function runs other programs asynchronously, this causes me a problem in that a file hasnt been completly finished being written before vb tries to read it, casuing a list to not fully populate. The time taken to write the file can vary immensly depending on the conditions...
