Shutting down the computer in Visual Basic
There are different commands you can give to shut down the computer.
Type thiese in any procedure e.g. Command1.Click()
To Log off:
retval=shell("RUNDLL32 SHELL32.DLL,SHExitWindowsEx 0",1)
To Shut Down:
retval=shell("RUNDLL32 SHELL32.DLL,SHExitWindowsEx 1",1)
To Reboot:
retval=shell("RUNDLL32 SHELL32.DLL,SHExitWindowsEx 2",1)
To Force ShutDown:
retval=shell("RUNDLL32 SHELL32.DLL,SHExitWindowsEx 4")
The above code can also be inserted into timer so the computer shutdowns after a period of time.
However, if you are a complete novice and use Windows Xp, then use the following code:
retval=shell("SHUTDOWN /L /T:15 /Y /C",1)
The above code will shutdown in 15 seconds, and close all existing programs without saving.
If however you wish to stop the shutdown during these 15 seconds, then a simple ccommand:
retval=shell("shutdown /a",1)
should suffice. Note that the 15 seconds can be adjusted to seconds of your choice. Insert /n instead of /y for prompt to save exisiting applications and remove the final parameter /c if you do not want shutdown to be cancelled.
Hope the above Article helps you in understanding in different ways to shutdown.
