How can i make you start a program with a button click, for example:

Lets use Firefox as the example

You click 'Start' and it starts Firefox [from C://Programfiles/Firefox/fixefox.exe <-- just an example]
You click 'Search' and it will search for Firefox.exe and start it

Try this:

Code: Select all

Shell "C://Programfiles/Firefox/firefox.exe"

Can you make it so you write the file location in a textbox and when you close the program the texts still there.. Understand?

I think like this:
create a setting in the project properties named PG.
Now, in form_load:

Code: Select all

 textbox1.text = my.settings.PG

And, in button run click:

Code: Select all

 Shell (textbox1.text)
My.settings.PG = textbox1.text
my.settings.save
my.settings.refresh

Note it will only save the text if you clicked Run.
