So my class was recently given an assignment to make a Tic Tac Toe program with options of playing against the computer, or another person. I was able to 2 player game work, but I have run into a problem with the two player game. Whenever I start debugging and click on one of my buttons (these represent the 9 spaces on a tic tac toe board), the gameplay form freezes, and becomes uncontrollable. The close button on the form doesn't even work, I have to go back to VB and click stop debugging to close the unresponsive form. I checked my original two player game, which has a similar code, but that works just fine. VB does not show any error messages or give any warning.

When I run a certain project from within the IDE and an error would come up (just any error, like dividing by 0), it won't jump into the IDE showing me the line where the error occured, but the program is simply ended and I am back in the IDE!.With any other project that is not the case. I cannot work further on this project with this problem. Of course I did a PC restart, but that didn't solve it.

View 3 Repliesi have developed a small application and was working fine on developing machine but when i installed it on another computer and double click on it to start it starts and after splash screen it gives don't send error [an error occurred] and getting closed.
View 3 RepliesI just got Windows 7, so I re-installed VB 2008 Express and have been met with some weird issues. One of which is when my program is running it used to break on a line where an error was occurring and tell what it was and let me fix it and continue. So I can see the error in the Immediate window but why is it not breaking on the line? It just continues loading the program. Is there a setting I'm missing?
View 4 RepliesI'm making a program from witch one could run an application with different credentials.I can compile the program successfully, but when I press the button to run the program I get the following error: Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit, the application will close immediately.The system cannot find the specified file.The code behind the button is as follows:
Dim myProcess As System.Diagnostics.Process = New System.Diagnostics.Process()
myProcess.StartInfo.FileName = "c:
un.bat /user:kreathyr c:getlogin.exe"
myProcess.Start()
Getlogin.exe does nothing but show the logged in username and run.bat utilizes the runas command.
I get this error on this line: System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.Copy _
(Scan0, Data2, 0, Data2.Length)
"Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt."
I also sometimes get an error on this line:
Dim dc1 As IntPtr = CreateDC("DISPLAY", Nothing, Nothing, CType(Nothing, IntPtr))
What I'm trying to do is take a screenshot and then read the colors of pixels. I currently have a working vb.net copyfromscreen method but it's SLOW and using 100% cpu usage.

I want my program to use the Appacctivate with a process ID because, the window title of the program I am going to work with is changing.
I tried several thing, but I just can't seem to be able to get the processID of any running applications. I googlet it, and there a several code's out there, but I get a Null Reference Error, with all of them.
which gets the ProcessID of a running program? I tried it with process.getprocessbyname ("myApplication") , dunno whether I was on a godd trail, or is there a far easyer way, even for activating windows without the processID.
I would like to get the global ip of the pc running the program in VB and echo the ip into TextBox1

View 4 RepliesI'm about to pull my hair out with this program. I need the following program to keep a running total of the total amount due by a customer for books bought. The exercise required the use of a BookSale class with 3 attributes(a quantity,price,and total due) and 2 behaviors(a default constructor and method that keeps a running total). Here is the code for the class:
[code]...
My problem lies in the program keeping a running total. The total due is displayed fine for each quantity and price but not the whole running total. For example,if I enter 1 as quantity and 2 as price and click the Add to Sale button,the Total Due value,which is $2.00,is displayed. However,if I change the quantity to 2 and price to 4,which comes out to $8.00,the $8.00 is not added to the existing $2.00. I feel like I'm missing something elementary and it's driving me crazy. I would work on it some more but it's already after 4 AM here and I need to get some sleep.BTW,this exercise is from a college textbook. However,this isn't an assignment that is due. I just got bored and decided to work on a chapter we didn't have time to get to.

View 8 Replies1) Is it possible to allow a vb 2008 program to run at computer startup. Meaning, one the computer is turned on, it will load up with all the other startup programs so that it is ready to use.
2) I also would like to know if it is possible to have the program minimize down to the tray where all start up programs usually appear. So that instead of it cluttering up the task bar it will be in the tray and when they clcik or double click it, it will open back up.
I think it's because I have a background image. For example when I maximize the program it lags. I mean big software companies have programs that have more pixel images and are much more colorful then my program is but never lag why. AVG has nice look but the program never lag. But the code runs fine so that is a good thing. How can I stop the lag with background image?

I am in process of writing a setup program that will reside in a USB stick.After inserting the Stick the VB2008E program starts (dont know how) and guides the technician to do certain tasks. As a part of this She/He needs to run a Setup.exe that resides in the same USB stick.
1- How do I define the drive letter of this USB stick.
2- How do I run the x:Setup.exe program without exiting the VB2008? The install process should begin after click of a button.
3- Would Autorun work on USB drives to run the program automaticaly?
4- How do I compile to make a single EXE file at the end?
Basically i want to run a program that is created in vb2008 with its compiler properties set to AnyCPUThe programmer has a 32bit os, so he has not recognized that his referenced assemblies are not compatible with 64bit OS and therefore throw system.badimageformatexception on 64bit OS (such as mine; im running windows 7)
now it is my understanding that all 32bit applications can be run on 64bit windows because the WOW64 emulator can run them (just like programs that get installed in the program files x86 directory)so the problem here is that my OS cant recognize that this program must be run in 32bit since that programmer foolishly set the compile options to anycpu i can not contact the programmer and therefore asking him to recompile is not a possible solution.So, how do i run this program as 32 bit on my 64bit OS? how can i manually set 32-bit compatibility? it is not available in compatibility options.I tried running in compatibility mode for windows xp sp2 i tried putting the software in program files x86 folder.
Title pretty much says it all. Does anyone know a way to to prevent a computer from entering a low/non-processing mode while the program is running? I don't care about monitor modes, screen-savers, hard-drive spindown, etc (in fact, I'd prefer to leave those alone; I like it that it shuts the monitor off after a time period).Basically, I have an industrial program that needs to continually monitor a PCI card it uses for IO; and this activity alone isn't enough to convince Windows not to go into Sleep mode. We normally just shut the power-save features off, but we had an incident where a technician forgot, a customer's machine went to Sleep after the end of the shift, the pumps stopped recirculating, yadda-yadda big mess.
View 6 RepliesIn Form1 there are a lot of boxes like checkbox, label....I want to show a processing message for opening serial port after program running. So I created Form2 specifically showing "Opening Port...". So in Form1_Load() I used Form2.Show(). However this message showed behind of Form1. I think this was executed before all the other tool boxes loading. So where should I put Form2.Show()?

View 1 RepliesI wrote this VB program to be able to throw a device we developed into programming mode where we use an ATMEL Flip installer to upload new firmware. I can program one device after another running the application off of Visual Studio Express 2010 or Visual Studio 2010, but when I go to publish this file and run it on another machine, it becomes unstable and crashes after each upload. On those same computers if I run the raw unpackaged program under Visual Studio Express, the system does not crash, and I can program devices repeatedly.
View 5 RepliesI have a program that has been running well under both Windows XP and Vista. Recently I tried installing the software on a Vista x64 machine and the program keeps crashing at runtime. I have tried running in Windows XP compatability mode and other solutions but nothign works. If I run it on the machine under Virtual PC using Windows XP I have no problems. The only two clues I have are these 1)One of the error messages I got when the program crashed said "missing dll file" and 2) the error log viewer shows that the error involves kernel32.dll This problem feels like it is way out of my league ont face value.
