simple backup utility
By panic mode in Free Utilities
simple command line backup utility. monitors one folder and when files of given type are detected, they are copied to another location (or two). original can be deleted or renamed. to avoid typing, all options are stored in an INI file. if missing, this file is created once the program is started... successful actions are highlighted in green, failed ones are red. this should also work on older Windows such as Win2K (tested) and WinXP (not tested).
use at own risk, this was literally something i just winged... if there is a bug or feature required, let me know. i will try to get to it as time allows.

AutoPlay for CDs (autorun.inf)
By panic mode in Free Utilities
if you have tried to make own cd with autoplay you may have noticed that
AUTORUN.INF only works on executables (exe or bat for example) but what if
discs with data you want to share with customers for example only contains documents
like presentations spreadsheets PDFs etc.?
one can easily make BAT file with START "MY_DOCUMENT" but the downside is
that command line box shows up during loading etc.
there are numerous programs on the internet that can take care of that but
all i was able to find was not free (well it could be there i didn't look too hard).
this is why this little program is made. it is based on ShellEx API
it's simple to use simply specify inside INI file what document you want to open when disc is inserted
and edit AUTORUN.INF to be something like this:
[AutoRun]
OPEN=AutoPlay.exe
ICON=Icon.ico
note that AutoPlay.exe looks in AutoPlay.ini for line OPEN=
and file name should be enclosed by quotation marks
for example OPEN="My Presentation.ppt" or "New Developments.pdf"
also AUTOPLAY.INI must be in same folder as AUTOPLAY.EXE
to make your disc start properly when inserted you need:
1. AUTORUN.INF
2. AUTOPLAY.EXE
3. AUTOPLAY.INI
4. end user PC that don't have autoplay feature turned off (sorry can't control everything)
and before i forget:
AutoPlay.exe does not handle your files. it simply tells Windows to open them.
in other words target pc should have installed software to handle specified file type or
the moment of glory will be...well without glory...
good luck

Controlling another application with VB.NET
By panic mode in Tutorials and Guides
Small demo how to write program that uses another application (any). In this demo (VB.NET source included) remote application is Windows Calculator.
Things to note:
- launch check if running and close remote app
- issue commands such as minimize maximize and restore (note that this works even if actual icons in upper right corner are grayed out this only prevents access in normal use not when accessed remotely like through API)
- read and write text from/to remote app (also works if user cannot see remote app like when minimized etc.).
- issue mouse clicks (to be effective should not be affected by user moving mouse cursor and should not interfere with user interaction with computer)
- it can focus on and control specific instance of the application (try to run several Calculators) etc.
panic mode
PS. To really see what is inside remote app you want to manipulate (check class caption etc.) you will need program like ShowWindow http://www.thescarms.com/VBasic/ShowWindow.aspx

NT31 data entry
By panic mode in HMI Sample Code
Attached file is sample basic HMI application for Omron NT series HMIs.
It shows how to do numeric and string input and it contains compact
version of ASCII keyboard which will fit NT31 (will work on any other NT screen)
which is something my version of NTST does not include and keypads for 620
screens don't fit (NTST menu Windows Symbol Manager).
Note when creating keypads they have to be in "1-3999 (Window/Keyboard)"
while normal screens are in folder "1-3999 (Standard)"
When creating new keypad from scratch:
create new keyboard screen note dashed line rectangle. that indicates size
of the popup window. all new keys/buttons must fit inside (what doesn't fit
into frame will not be downloaded to HMI and will not show up)
when creating standard screen:
drop numerical input or string input object onto screen. note that there are
two overlapped objects that are linked. one of them is tied to PLC memory and
specifies focus type (i changed it from flashing inverted to just inverted).
the frame around it is touch switch object which brings popup window
(Input Key window/keyboard specify keyboard screen number).
notes:
you can have different functions assigned to touch switch.
pay attention to cursor location or you may end up overwriting wrong value.
objects on screens interact with tables (numeric string etc.).
tables contain reference to PLC memory locations.
