The line of code where I put "*WIN32 EXCEPTION LINE* keeps running into an error(Win32 Exception was unhandled; Access is denied). Here is the full error description:

As I said before, this had been working for several days, up until now.
I just build a program and when I install to a computer it gives me an error. The eroor is simply to install .net 2.0 and then everything works fine. So I was wondering is there a way I can package the program so it installs .net first and then the program automatically?

View 4 RepliesI'm running into is some of the namespaces aren't being recognized. After searching the internet it seems I am supposed to have more than just System.Management.Instrumentation available to Import/Reference.However, that is all I can access.I need System. Management. ConnectionOptions and a few others, but don't know how to get these.Do I need to install the WMI SDK, or maybe the WMI Win32 Classes?
View 2 RepliesActually, I've been able to add the project, but I don't know how to execute the load command (Form1_Load) from the original solution to the added project. Additionally, there is a .DLL file that is needed to run the new project

In the SDK, there's a file named SynCtrl.dll, which contains a few ActiveX controls.Based on what I learned from the samples provided in the SDK (which are VB 5 old and don't compile), I wrote this little application:

How would I change the Solution/Build name? VB saves the project in a folder, how would I change the name of the
-Folder
-Solution File
-Finished EXE
WITHOUT breaking the project?
As far as I know , it is possible to combine projects into a solution . So , lets say we have 3 projects . Each project has a starting form , lets call them SF1 , SF2 and SF3 .What I would like to ask you is how can I write code in order to have both the solution and the partial projects , working . You see , the solution (which as far as I know will also be accompanied by a new project) has to have a starting form ; lets call it SF0 .A) First of all I'd like to know how can I call a partial project from the solution itself .B) What code do I have to write in the partial projects in order to keep them running correctly when they are separate (that is not part of the solution) . I am asking this question too , because as I guess , there has to be code in SF1 , SF2 and SF3 (into buttons) that lead back to SF0 , but

View 2 RepliesI want to display some text for a user - blocks of text about "vendors" - that can be scrolled.
I might want the first vendor to be a different color - or be bold.
I might want certain fields in the "text blurb" about each vendor to be bold - or underlined - or a different color.
In VB6 I would have used a RTB - would that still be the solution??
I've been doing some lite coding over the last couple years so I'm no where near where a lot of you already are. So my code tends to be organized in the standard beginners format... one project per solution with one executable (*.dll or *.exe). So I have a bit of a "best-practices" question for you... Why use multiple projects in one solution?

In the Solution Explorer window, is it possible to change the highlight color of selected items *when the form does not have focus*?For example, selecting a module in the Solution Explorer highlights that module's name in Blue, then when the focus is lost by moving to another window in the IDE, that blue highlight becomes a very, very light gray (on some LCD monitors in particular). I'd like to make that light gray a bit easier to see.Is this possible? I'm running VS2008 SP1 on Vista 64.
View 2 RepliesWhen the Visual Basic compiler (Vbc.exe) crashes, Visual Studio fails to detect this and becomes stuck in an inoperable state. The "Build" menu appears as it would if the solution were building, but the Cancel Build (Ctrl+Break) menu item has no effect. Trying to close the application or the solution gives the error:
"The build must be stopped before the solution can be closed."
I can't find any way to remedy this short of terminating the devenv.exe process and restarting Visual Studio completely. Is there anything quicker and less severe?
Some of my students end up with a different icon in the Solution Explorer when they create applications. An example is the attached Exam.vb icon, which includes a little arrow into the normal Form icon (see pic) . I am guessing it means it is linked some how. When the application is zipped and submitted, an error is thrown when I unzip it to grade it which indicates that the file in not part of the project, and it references the absolute address on the original application.Any idea what caused this and how can I instruct the students to avoid it in the future?
View 5 RepliesIt must be to close to the weekend, but I thought I read at some time an article of an easy way to have a common settings file for both application and user settings across a solution.
I currently have a Solution that contains 4 projects. Each of these projects need to access the same set of settings and be able to update the user settings. Is there a way to do this utilizing the My.Settings functionality?
Just got a little quirk with VS2008 on 1 solution.When i press F5 to debug my solution builds the current project but then insists on building all my setup projects...
This only occurs on 1 of my solutions and it has 20 projects within it.
I've checked startup projects and it has no dependancies and is set to selected project.
EDIT: Right click and debug in new instance works fine

Stupid question, but how do I get access to this Explorer? The says: To create a performance session for Windows client application:
(1) Open the solution in the Visual Studio IDE.
(2) On the <B>Analyze</B> menu, click <B>Launch Performance Wizard</B>.
(3) From the <B>Which of the following available targets would you like to profile?</B> drop-down list, select the name of the application that you want to profile, and then click <B>Next</B>. You can add more binaries later.
(4) Accept the default Sampling profiling method, and then click Next.
(5) Click <B>Finish</B>.
Only problem is that there is no <B>Analyze</B> menu in the IDE.

i have a folder called xulrunner that needs to be initialized - i originaly had the folder under c:\ and used the following code to initialize it. Xpcom.Initialize("c:\xulrunner")This worked fine, but because i want it to get included with the install, i included the folder in the project, and when built it goes to a folder on my desktop, that haves the folder allong with the exe's etc
so i swapped the above code to Xpcom.Initialize(My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath & "\xulrunner")However that does not work.
