Breaking Or Alerting Me On Runtime Errors Such As "file Not Found", "division By Zero", "database Connection Error"?
Nov 24, 2011
I am a VB programmer. Recently I noticed that my visual studio is not breaking or alerting me on runtime errors such as "file not found", "division by zero", "database connection error" etc. I want the error display and breaking on..
I have developed a windows forms application in vb.net 4 which connects to a MSSQL database. I have used the built-in tools to add the data source, data connection and data set. (Data->add new data source-> etc.) The application is installed on staff laptops which may or may not have network connectivity and may or may not be able to access the server on which the database is held. Obviously this is causing unhandled errors when the program starts and tries to make a connection to the database. (using windows credentials) Does anyone know where in the code the connection is made so I can go in and add some error handling? Or any settings I can change to get visual studio to handle the errors nicely?
I have written a program which connects to MS sql express 2008 using the string below. This is OK on my computer but when I try to run this on a client computer I get the following message: "An attempt to attatch an auto-named database for file :(C:UsersBarry2010 vb programsadotrialadotrialResults 6.mdf) failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share."

I had the following piece of code working for the last few weeks and earlier today it seems stopped working.I have the code in a try/catchh block and in that try I create a file, "Build.bat" with code in it that will get it to do some oracle/sql wizardry
If File.Exists(Application.StartupPath & "Build.bat") Then Shell(Application.StartupPath & "Build.bat", AppWinStyle.NormalNoFocus, True) End If
After stepping through my code I noticed that the catch is executed at the shell line, so I put it in an if statement to see if the file exists and it always comes up as true, but on the next line I still get a File not Found error.
Try Dim BatFile As New StreamWriter(Application.StartupPath & "Build.bat") Dim SQLPLUS As String[co
I am using process.start to start Excel.The filename argument has blank spaces in the path and the argument is truncated at the first space.The error that is returned says the file cannot be found.
I am reading a file from the default location. I request a file by name only using an InputBox. If the User types a file that does not exist I get an exception error. I want to be able to handle the problem by outputting to a list box that the file was not found. My Code is something like:
sr = IO.File.OpenText(fileName) IF fileName <> "found" Handle issue Else Continue Code
I want to run a check to make sure the file does exist in the default location but not sure how to get it done. I had seen the Public Shared Function FileExists but I am not quite sure how to make it work.
i'm just a begginer in using visual basic. i'm trying to add, subtract, multiply and divide two numbers. here is my code;[code]an error is occuring when i'm not putting any number on the textbox. now for the problem when i put a number to textbox1, and 0 to textbox2, there is also an error. It's because we can't divide a number to zero.
i am using access database for my program. now i have connected to the database in MDI form of main exe, and ir also works, user can log in, it gets verified etc etc etc. now here is the problem, when i load a form from dll and try to use any sql query on that form, i get message, "database connection is not opened". so what i did was, i added the connect() (a function i designed to connect to database) in the load part of the dll's form, it made the trick, query's started to run, everything went fine, and when i reload the form i.e after closing the form, i load it again from MDI form, i get error, connection already open..
After finish my software, when I was try to run in other computer the error was: Don't possible to get the file or assembly 'ADODB, Version=7.0.3300.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f711d50a3a'...How the best solution for this error? Just to put the last adodb.dll in the application folder?
In the old dos days you could combine 2 files as save to a third file:copy file1 + file2 file3. It still works in a dos shell. I did this: Shell("copy " & file1 & " + " & file2 & " " & file3)I got an error that file3 cannot be found. I know it doesn't exist I want to create it. So I created a bat file:copy %1 + %2 %3 and called it as such:Shell("ccopy " & file1 & " " & file2 & " " & file3). I still get the error that file3 cannot be found. First I don't see how it can tell from the shell that file3 is a file. How do I do this otherwise? Do I have to create a blank file before calling it?
I have added bat_fix_w7.reg as a resource file, with binary type, now when i run the code it gives me err System cannot found the file specified, but when i checked my F: drive the file is there than why 2 line is generating err.
I have a program that looks for a file named 'license.dat' upon startup. The program first checks the directory it's in, and if the license file isn't there, it prompts the user to select the license file with a file browser dialog. I have tested this code and confirmed it working in a number of different OS environments.Recently, I received reports from two users (one in Germany and one in Italy) that the program can't find the license on their computers, even though it is present in the program's directory and they manually selected it with the file browser dialog. The only commonality I'm seeing here is a lack of English OS, but beyond that I'm stumped.This is the code I'm using:
If System.IO.File.Exists(System.AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory + "license.dat") = False Then File dialog code goes here
I am unable to debug any projects as of a Windows Update 2 days ago. It not only caused problems with VS 2008 but also SQL Server 2008. I did a system restore and my SQL Server is back to normal, but VS 2008 will not debug any projects. I get a vshost.exe has stopped working and then a file exception error. I am copying the file exception msg:System.IO.FileNotFoundException was unhandled
Message="Could not load file or assembly 'sortkey.nlp' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified."
[Code]...
I have tried repairing VS 2008 and also a SFC scanow from the cmd prompt. I have also tried unchecking the vshosting property. Nothing works

After adding a UserControl to a form which access my database I get this warning: Warning1The database file cannot be found. Check the path to the database. [ Data Source = C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0Common7IDEDatabase.sdf ] C:UsersUserDocumentsVisual Studio 2010ProjectsProject1Project1Options.Designer.vb2160
Thing is I never had a database at that location, my database is and has always been in MyDocuments in the Project folder itself. There is nothing anywhere in my code referring to that database! When I double click it I get sent to this line in the Designers window: Me.Controls.Add(Me.BoxControl1) Even though I get this error I can still access my database, so basically it does absolutely nothing except drive me mad! So how do I fix this?
