I'm building an c# app that is designed to replicate and enhance the functionality of an VB6 app developed many years ago. My problem is that one module in the old app does some realy complicated things and trying to replicate this starting from specs would be a big pain for me. Even if this sounds like the best idea.
My question is : is there a way i could keep the old VB module and integrate it into the c# app, so that i wouldn't have to rewrite everything ?
I have an old application in BASIC. It still runs under Windows ME. It no longer works under XP, so I was looking at recoding the applciation. I started coding it in VBA, which I have used for Excel macros for years.
We are looking at getting a new computer for kids to use for schoolwork, etc. I also want the kids to learn programming and recoding my old BASIC application is a good place to start. A new computer we were considering has MS Works, but I suspect I will need MS Office (at least Excel) to get VBA. There are multiple versions of Office 2007 (Home & School, Small Business, Pro), so I looked into the Microsoft website to see if I could find out what version of Office I need to get to have VBA. What I found is that VBA seems to be going away in favor of VSTA and VSTO.
Is VBA truely going away? Or is it still going to be a part of Excel for wrting macros? If VBA is part of Excel, is it available in all versions of Office? If VBA is going away, what is recommended for recoding my old BASIC application?
The application involves display of a screen full of data with color coding and has several actions for updating those data.It does not involve any graphics or animation. In the old BASIC application all the system data and runtime data are in program variables.
The actions to be performed are selected by number from menus.In creating the application in VBA, I envisioned primary data display on a main form, which would also have buttons to invoke dialog panels to perform the various updating actions.I have the system data that are not changed when the application is run in one Excel worksheet and the runtime data on another worksheet.
I've got an old legacy application for communicating via serial port to an embedded controller communications bus. that someone else developed.The application is written in VB6, and is structured as two projects - a DLL to handle the connection and communications logic, with an application GUI project.I was hoping to be able to write a new application GUI (in C++ ideally) to use the existing DLL as-is, but I'm having lots of problems working out how to import it.So I'm wondering, is it even going to be possible to use this old DLL into a C++ project as is? or is it possible to import into a C# project? or a VB.NET project? (would prefer not to use VB, but can if I have to)Where I am now: I have the existing compiled executable and DLL, and these run on my system.I also have the project files, and they're all readable in notepad++ but I don't have VB6, and importing the project into visual studio VB.NET 2008 express isn't at all straightforward. Especially not without a working example to dig through and play with first (DLL project may be importable, but has 50+ things indicated as needing changing in the upgrade report. It also seems to be ignoring three .cls files that look very important to my not particularly VB6-savvy eyes... The application project has a message in the upgrade report about something "missing a design time license" and the only project files that actually seem to come into the project explorer for imported project is the project file itself, and the assembly info file.)
Most examples of how to import a DLL into VS C++ assume you have a solution with the DLL project all compiling nicely alongside your project that will use it. Or at least a .DLL and .lib and .h file... I spoke with the original developer of the code (in another city, we don't work directly) and got a .lib to match my .dll, but still have no .h file.I'm usually fine to bash through something new, but without a baseline working example of the project even in VB6 that I can get my understanding from, it makes this very hard. Also a lack of similar questions anywher google can find them on the net makes me wonder if this is something i should be even attempting.I'm working on getting a non-express copy of visual studio if that will make any difference (express worked fine for everything up until now so I never needed anything more) but that will take a number of weeks, most likely.
however there is a portion in this code that can be simplified more (the if orelse statements). I know it has something to do with a collections class or an array, but I'm stumped on how to change it.
Function GetLastName(ByVal accountName As String) As String Dim lastName As Dim stringArray As Array = accountName.Split(" ")

I recently downloaded Visual Basic Web Developer, Visual C# 2010 Express, and Visual C++ 2010 Express asI intend to learn ASP.NET, C#, and C++ after I have learned more about VB.NET (wish me luck, haha.)I am creating a text file with all of my registration codes, but I did not keep my registration code for Visual Basic (neither in records norn email.) I have tried re-clicking the 'Register Product' button, but I just get a message saying that I havealready obtained a key. Is there someplace I can go within the program to view my code?
I would like to either generate VB Code from UML or vice versa UML from Code. Does anyone know some UML tools for VB6 or VB.Net that can do this?Is it possible with Visual Studio 2010?

I am loading a table from access in my form while clicking on a "load table"button:
Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnLoadtable.Click
Me.WoodsheetsTableAdapter.Fill(Me.WoodshopDataSet.woodsheets) End Sub
The binding navigator should not be visible so I set the property "Visible" to "No"...
What is the code to include for another button called "Next" to use the functionality which is normally in the bindingnavigator to move to the next item in that table?
I have read a few chapters, and researched a few websites but none of which fulfil my question, which is where should I put this If statement
Public LoginName As String Public Password As String LoginName = txtUserName.Text Password = txtPassword.Text
[Code]...
The idea is once the user has finished inputting text into both text-boxes the image on the button changes from a no-go to a green-submit button but unsure what declaration it would go under and which element. I have tried several form elements and declarations but not having the desired effect that I would like
I have Visual Basic 2005. I want to be able to adjust the Master Volume programmatically. In the recent versions of Visual Basic it is much easier but in VB2005 it is a little more involved from what I have read on previous posts. Is there a way to adjust the volume in the code of a Visual Basic 2005 program?
I am learning visual basic. I have created a form for a calculator. I have placed buttons for plus, minus, division, multiply etc. The programme is working for clicing on buttons i.e. when I want to add two nos. I accept 1st no. from text box then I click on "PLUS" button then I accept 2nd no. When I click on "Equal" button the result is displaying on textbox. But I want to write code insted of clicking on "PLUS" button if press " + " key on keyboard and for "Equal" button, if I press " Enter " key on keyboard, The result for adding two number should display on textbox. I want code for both click event and keypress event.
Tools for my website.Visual Studio 2010SQL Management Studioasp.netvisual basic.netI am using GridView.
