I am very new at this type of situition and am looking
for guidance:
I am using VB.NET 2002 to write an app.
I have an .exe that needs to be incorporated into my
program. It's an RSYNC(novell synching utility)exe
I am going to get a job number and year from the user.
This will allow me to build a string of where the file is
stored in the directory.
Once I build the string I am going to run a shell command
from within my program such as:
c:\cwrsync\rsync.exe -vaz /cygdrive/c/TrussJobs/....etc
c:\cwrsync\rsync.exe (<--The exe I need to run)
Is there a way to store this file in a VB.NET program
when compiling and then copy it to the user without them
knowing it when the form is loaded so it is in place upon
submission?
OR
Is there a way to store an .exe in the program and when
trying to process the shell I can locate it somewhere?
So- in recaps, I need help distribuitng an exe to the
user in order to get my shell command to work properly.
This is not being used for corruption but to save my
users from needing to terminal in to our central location
and copy data. RSYNC can handle the copying of data for
us freeing up a lot of time and reducing bandwith greatly
since it compresses on the fly.
Thanks for any suggestions!
