I have been searching for over a week for a snip of code that will execute a Batch file in the same way as it would if you clicked on it in the folder. Process.Start("file path" & "StartServer1.bat") This opens the file and executes the code but because the .bat file doesn't have a strick file location to the .jar so it says, "JAR not found" or "You don't have permition to access this file". I have tried numerous different ways to open the file but every time I get an error of some sort. All I need to be able to do is start a server with a .bat file. The .bat is located in a folder on the desktop with the .jar in that folder. I am a beginner when it comes to VB.net and the only resources I have is Google and that lot. If anyone can help please let me know.
VB.Net and VBScript are similar but not the same. VB.Net has to be compiled in order to run and VBScript does not. VBScript: Code: Set objShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") objShell.Run "notepad.exe" VB.Net: Code: ' method 1 Dim p As Process = Process.Start("notepad.exe") ' method 2 Dim pID As Integer = Shell("notepad.exe")
