.NET Simple .exe Will Run On Some Computers But Not Others (should All Be Same/similar Build)?
Sep 22, 2009
I created a simple desktop app (really simple) and did a network clickonce deployment. It works fine on most computers.BUT nothing on one computer (computer A). No message, no start menu, nothing. App has no dependencies other than .NET framework. If I just copy the exe onto the same computers, it works fine on all computers except computer A.Computer A has the correct framework installed. When I double click the exe it does nothing - no message, no error, not showing up in task manager, notta. I tried more than one application and it performs the same.

I am trying to build a simple app that will start another program.The command line that works in a dos batch file is c:program filespixellWall Controlwallctl.exe -layout=c:1.lay with my code below this works, c:program filespixellWall Controlwallctl.exe but the switch info above doesnt get passed, I get a run time error.
Public Class Form1 Dim layout1 As String Dim layout2 As String
current version is 2008 I'm trying to build an application with a simple MENU. When the user clicks on a Menu Item i want the container to show some controls, now when the user clicks another Menu Item, the container needs to change and show other controls, and so on with every menu Item the user clicks, one at a time.
I thought of panels showing and hiding for every menu Item clicking, but that would use a lot of memory as ALL the controls would be created, some of them just not showing. I also though of an MDI application, but i dont want multiple forms (with the menu bar) opening inside one form. I just want the actual container of one form to change.
I am currently building a system in SQL Server 2005.
I have a table that holds information about certain insurance schemes such as overheads and other things. These values will change occasionally and currently I administer the database straight through the management Studio.
I would like to build a simple interface that will allow my colleagues to change these values by selecting the company in a dropdown and the current values will populate. They can then edit these values and submit them to the database.
Is this possible in the current Visual Studio supplied with SQL Server 2005 or do I need to get another product.
I wish to build and display a simple diagram that is built from data entered by the user. Because I can't post a picture of the types of diagrams here I'll use the following example. Image a picture of a house as a child might draw it a large square, with a triangle for a roof, a rectangle for a door, and two smaller squares for windows. Now I want to build an application that lets the user enter data and change that drawing according. For example, by entering the length and height of the house the size changes, change the number of windows, size of the door or height of the roof.
Now this may seem like a useless application but keep in mind the house is just an example the real purpose is different but should be as simply drawn. I'm looking for suggestions on make this work. Should I use a paint? or is something like this better done with a tie into the Visio references?
I know how to check whether an item exists in a list using (MyList.Contains), But I do not know how to check the whole list. For example (use one button and one richtextbox):
I have a Form with a Media Player in it. Which plays a Song.
[Code]...
It's playing in the background since the Form is hidden. When I play itin Debug, everything works fine. When I run the app outside Debug, I get this error: [URL] The Music File is there, but strangely, there comes this weird error.
A particular VB.NET project is actually throwing 'Build Failed' But when I try rebuilding again it says 'Rebuild Succeeded'. It keeps alternating this behavior. Kind of random. Any vbc.exe issue of long locking the PDB or xml files?
I have a vb.net 2008 windows form application that I was just assigned to work on. how to maintain and test changes to both the pre build and the post build events? Can you tell me how to test these events? My postbuild event, I believe calls a project file in the solution file that wraps files together in a bundle in debug mode. Can you tell me how the posbuild event works and when it is called?
I am using 2008 Express Edition. I am trying to make a Release build instead of a Debug build.Under Tools->Options, Projects and Solutions->General - I checked Show advanced build configurations. The option to switch configurations does not show up in the IDE.
After this, I went to the Project Properties->Compile and switched the Configuration from Active(Debug) to Release.After building, I looked in my project directory, however only in the Debug sub-directory was the .exe and nothing in the Release sub-directory.I have used Visual C++ Express Edition, where I noticed that if you do not change to Release in the IDE than after changing to Release in properties, resets the project to the last configuration setting which is usually Debug.how to make the Debug/Release box available in the IDE, since Tools/Options does not make it show up?
I just created a simple application. I Builded that using build->build myapp. I got .exe of that application. i runned. all went fine. but when i closed that app, even after closing it is in memory. it is still running. how to deploy it properly?
I have some very simple questions about making a release build exe in vb.net using MS VB 2010 Express.
I realize that my project's executable is built in the bin/debug folder. However, when I copy this to any other location on my computer or someone else's, this executable does not function. I have read that I need to create a release build but in MS VB 2010 Express, when I use the Project-Properties menu and change the Compile tab configuration to Release and the path to binRelease, I still get the exe in the binDebug folder and not the binRelease folder.
1) Is it normal that exe's from the debug folder do not function outside of the debug folder?
2) Most importantly, if the release build produces a faster exe, could someone please explain step by step how to do this with MS VB 2010 Express ? I do not see any button on the compile tab in the project properties that actually builds the release.
Trying to make a simple browser with some simple addon's. What Ive done is setup a menu(forum) for the user to enter their email providers web address and it will save it in a xml file. When they click on the email link, it should load the email xml iformation and place that info in the tb_html.text and navigate. I keep getting a null exception and im not sure what going on here. Here is the code:
Browsers: Private Sub btn_Email_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btn_Email.Click 'Load Action Dim SavedEmailObj As Storage
I was able to build both debug and release versions of my VB code before now I no longer have the option to build a release version. How do I turn it back on
So when i build or click debug on my program. No errors come up and its smooth. So i decide to publish my programme. However. I come up with a bunch of errors during the publishing.
Here they are:Error 1 Cannot publish because a project failed to build. 1 1 Simple CALC
Error 2 Unable to copy file "binReleaseSimple CALC.exe.manifest" to "binReleaseapp.publishApplication FilesSimple CALC_1_0_0_0Simple CALC.exe.manifest". The specified path, file name, or both are too long. The fully qualified file name must be less than 260 characters, and the directory name must be less than 248 characters.
I've two BGW with similar coding but different approach, My second BGW shows me "NOT RESPONDING" whenever i try move/click/focus to form while the BGW is running.
I have a web site where users enter company names to use in the rest of the app. However, recently I've noticed that similar duplicates are appearing, e.g. someone will enter EastTec Solicitors another will enter EastTec Solicitors Ltd someone else will enter EastTec Solictors (missed the i out in Solicitors), when there should only be one entry of EastTec Solicitors. What is the best way of checking the database for entries similar to what they have entered? How would you about checking for spelling mistakes as well like the Solicitors one?
What I need to do is be able to enumerate pretty much all hWnds and locate any TextBox (outside of my program) and get information about it (eg: Name if any, text in it, etc).
I've been using the 2006 SerialCommChat program to do my programming functions.This only has CommPort availability and I'm needing both Commport and what I guess they call a Virtual Port known as the USB Ports.
I'm trying to create an enumerable class, similar to System.Drawing.Color - My goal is to have places in the code where I can define a variable as the type of my structure, then be presented a list of static values to pick from.I'd also like to use this for a property of a UserControl.I don't know if I'm using the right setup here with the class, structure, etc.I'm just trying to mimic the Drawing.Color class.I'm creating a Public Class called Person.Inside it, I have two Public ReadOnly Properties for Name and Age, their corresponding Members, and a Constructor to create a new Person.Second, I have a Structure called Persons and it has two ReadOnly Properties: Billy and Sally.[code]In my attempt, I get the full freaking .net class library in my intellisense list. Using Drawing.Color, I get a nice pre-defined list of values to pick from.No extra methods.No constructors.Just values.
In VB.NET, I am trying to talk to a webservice (that can't be changed) to create and update customer data.The CreateCustomer service expects an object of type ConsumerPerson and the ChangeCustomer service expects an object of type ChangeData.The properties of these two object are exactly the same, so I thought it would be wise to just set the properties using one single function.
