[2008] Make Updates For A Program And Put It On Web For Download?
Feb 23, 2009
i dont know anything about any of them XD
1). Whats a server? are they web based or locally on a pc?
2). I've made a program and want to make updates for it and put them on the web for download, Do i need a server to do this?
3). How do i make updates work on visual basic 2008, i mean ive made a program and i want to put it on the internet but i also want to bring out updates, apparently i can use visual basic to automatically download updates and install them. What do i need to do this? where can the updates be downloaded from on the internet? will a file share like rapidshare work?

I am new to Visual Basic. I have Visual Basic 2010 Express. I am planning to make a program that can download files from a website to put on an SD Card to Soft Mod, or hack it. I want it so that the user clicks on a radio button based on what System Menu their Wii is running on. There is currently, System Menu 4.0 or less, System Menu 4.2, and System Menu 4.3.
They also have to choose a region from a List Box. The current options are:
Region U (Americas)
Region K (Korean)
Region J (Japanesse)
Region E (European)
I also want it so that the user can choose where to download the installation files for the Wii soft Mod.
I want to have a button that when the user clicks on it, a pop up asks them where they want to download the files to appear, once they choose a location, i want it to download a file based on what they chose and i also want it so that it tells them what to do with the files and where to put them.

I used the search, Could not find something on auto starting the program from download, or auto run, I'm not sure what it is exactly called, that might be why I didn't find anything.

i have made a program and added a update check button.If an update is available it lets the user know and if they click update a hidden webbrowser goes to the download address like:
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
WebBrowser1.Navigate("http://mydomain.com/myprogram.exe") End Sub Well this works and prompts the user with a file download dialog(default for windows)
But say they have "myprogram.exe" on there desktop and try to save the new updated one there it will ask to overwrite and thats fine but the program is in use as they have click update.

I don't like to build myprogram to a click-onceapplication becauseI lose the .exe and I don't know how to edit it after building it. So unless someone this, here is my main question:I was thinking about updating a .txt file that have uploaded somewhere that has the current available version. Can I use streamreader for an online file? And if so, if the available version is updated, how can I edit the code and everything to updatethe file?

As most programers will want after spending a long time on a program is to implement program updates, so have i.
What i want is a nice simple way of doing the following check if file exists as "www.mydomain.com/program/install.exe" if true, download and launch install.exe on completion, un intstall current vertion ( if possible )

its possible to add a "resume download" feature to my program as something doesn't seem to be right when I want to download the latest videos from my server.The application will download most of the video, but will then stop at random times. After the download has stopped, no more data will be received. Thats why I need a "download resume" feature in my application, so the whole file will be downloaded and corrupt files aren't being saved.
Here's my so far
Private WithEvents wClient As New WebClient
Private Sub wClient_DownloadProgressChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Net.DownloadProgressChangedEventArgs) Handles wClient.DownloadProgressChanged
[code].....
I was thinking of adding a timer to my project, and if data has not been received for more than "x" seconds, the file will in a "paused" state.The next step would be "resuming" the download so the file is downloading again.
Other Notes:The files download fine in IE and chrome.The files are around 5MB to 30MB in size and upto 10 minutes in length.

I am very very new to VB.NET and would like to ask a simple question. I want to create a vb.net program and allow visitors to a website to download this program. However, I prefer not to have visitors download a zip folder. I would like to have a program that just gives a prompt to save in a selected folder, once the saved file is selected it prompts the person to download, and then when finished prompts the person to run the program. The reason is twofold:
1. I don't like the extra step involved with unzipping the file. and 2. I don't like the visitors having to look for the "main" file program within the new downloaded folder. So is there any way to have just one file for others to download without having it in a zip folder?

what's the best way to handle the updates to the database.For example i have one datagridview that's binded to a datatable (with two fields, id auto incremented and a varchar). The user can do all the operations Insert, Update, Delete.If i insert one row (only the text) and call the update method to save the changes to the database, and after that remove the same row and call the update method the adapter will throw a exception because it didn't update the datatable with the value of the id. So the best way to do this is always calling the fill method after every update?

here is part of the code i am working with at the moment:
Public Sub runbar(ByVal time As Integer)
sleep(2)
Dim i As Integer
i = 0
ProgressBar1.Maximum = time
[Code]...
The problem is that when i click the button to run this, it does the runbar animation BEFORE it updates the text box. I have even tried putting a loop around the TextBox1.Text = obj to see if that would force it to work, but it did not. I would like to know if there is anyway to get the text to update before the runbar animation runs, just seams weird as i have the text editing first lol.

But I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced this - I would rather not have the updates if they stuff things up.

Is there any way to determine that a system has automatic updates enabled and has the little yellow security center icon indicating that updates are available? I'd like to drop a little service on one of my servers to monitor for that condition but can't find a good resource to get started.

I would like to ask if it is possible to do a multiple records editing by linqtosql method in one click event? What I've been trying to do is to edit all the names in the table which are having the same account number. I was able to edit but only one name has been edited and the rest are not
******************************************************
Private Sub Button2_Click(------------) Handles Button2.Click
Dim accnt As String
accnt = Textbox1.Text
[Code]....
Why is it these codes could only edit records in one datarow? Can you debug the codes to edit all records which are having the same account number after it is being query?if that is possible for you.
