Good Afternoon:
I have two questions I was hoping someone can help me with.
1. I've created a app that creates a xml file; the project was constructed
as a console window. I want to know is there anyway to suppress the console
window from showing? One of the options is I have is to generate the xml file
without showing the console window. Even though I'm not calling the Console
it still flashes. Any suggestions. I plan on running this exe as a scheduled
task. Is there a better method in doing that; like should it be a library
(dll) file? Would a dll run as a scheduled task?
2. The xml file that I'm creating needs a schema. Is there any good
information on how to create the schema for such a file? It's a simple xml
file with that's in the following format:
<main>
<record>
<name>Joe Smith</name>
.... other elements
</record>
<record>....
</main>

What do you care if the Console application is showing the console?
So, you have it running as an unattened scheduled task, there is nothing
wrong with that.
No, you can't schedule a DLL to run by itself. A DLL must be hosted by an
EXE that's using the DLL. The Task Scheduler knows nothing a about the DLL
interfaces. Only a program/exe that was written by the developer to use the
DLL would know about the DLL's interfaces and methods, and the Task
Scheduler doesn't know them.

There are plenty of articles on Google or Dogpile.com
I'm looking for some examples for creating a schema programmaticall y. I've
searched using Yahoo and found articles in creating a schema in the IDE of VS
but nothing programmaticall y.
The reason I don't want the console to flash was because it may be
distracting for the user. I'm trying to make the app user friendly as
possible.

Programmically create a XSD to do what? The XSD is based off an existing XML
file. The XML is validated against its XSD. You change the the XML file, you
create a XSD from it in VS 2008 or some other XML tool, and you validate the
XML file's data and tags against its XSD programmically to veryify that the
XML is correct when using the XML in a program..

Then you use a Windows Service application that doesn't use a console. It
runs unattended in the background, uses a thread process on a timer event,
the tread executes, its processes and goes back to sleep until the elapsed
time event for the thread fires again to start the process over --- in
intervals.

This is long. Bear with me, as I will really go through all the convoluted

The basic idea is that my application (VB.NET) will start a process,

Can you write a (i.e. one) C# project that works from the cmd line and gui?
I seems if i write a GUI app it can't write to console using
System.Console.WriteLine if thge project has its "Output Type" to
"Windows Application".
However I can write to stdio if i set output type to "Console
Application". When I do this I unfortunately get a "console box" as well

Hi All
I have a server based C# console application. This application must
hide its console window when its launched out on the field. So I
dutifully P/Invoke'd FindWindow/ShowWindow combination to hide the
console window at launch time.
The application (for legacy reasons) hangs around by waiting on an old-
fashioned Console.ReadLine() statement.

I'd like to know if there is any method to minimize command mode window when
