    Process.StandardInput.WriteLine not working under Vista?

    The following code used to work. It starts up notepad and types a few lines.
    What am I doing wrong? I'm using VB.NET 2005 under Vista. It starts notepad
    okay, but it can't 'type' into it.


    'demonstrate "typing" into notepad
    Dim psiProcessStart Info As New ProcessStartInf o
    With psiProcessStart Info
    .Arguments = "" 'command line arguments
    .CreateNoWindow = False
    .ErrorDialog = False
    .FileName = "notepad.ex e"
    .LoadUserProfil e = False
    .RedirectStanda rdError = False
    .RedirectStanda rdInput = True
    .RedirectStanda rdOutput = False
    .UseShellExecut e = False 'this must be false for
    input/output/error redirection
    .WorkingDirecto ry = ""
    End With
    Using prc As Process = Process.Start(p siProcessStartI nfo)
    MsgBox("")
    prc.StandardInp ut.WriteLine("T his line added by ProcessMgmtDemo ")
    prc.StandardInp ut.WriteLine("T his line added by ProcessMgmtDemo ")
    prc.StandardInp ut.WriteLine("T his line added by ProcessMgmtDemo ")
    End Using

      Why are you trying to open and manipulate Notepad instead of just
      writing to a file and then opening it in Notepad?
