View 2 RepliesI'm writing an application for a device running Windows XP. There are 2 versions of the device and each version has its own API to communicate with the device's software. The application I'm writing needs to pull the same data from the API. My question is how to write a application that will detect at runtime which version of the device it is on and use the appropriate API.
I've created an interface containing all of the common methods and also classes for each device that implement the interface. Now I need to know how to activate the correct one at runtime.
Public Interface IAPI
Sub InitializeMachine()
Function GetActiveProgram() As String

I'm writing a Windows form application. I created a SQL database called myDB.mdf. The database/form connection was created using the wizard provided by VS2008. The connection string, table adapter, dataset, etc were all generated automatically. In runtime, I copied the database to several folders and I want to the application to connect to them one by one and do some data manipulation.
Here below are the relevant code I'm using:
Namespace My

Public WriteOnly Property RunTimeConnectionString() As String

I have multiple urls to the same webservice, each with it's own "token". I need to switch from one url to another during runtime. I have planned to do this by storing my URLs inside a XML-file, and then read it, copy innertext of an element and overwrite the WS url in my app.config. My app reads and write to xml just fine, it is when I actually use a method from the webserivice proplems start to appear.

I am creating a program that will be sold as a subscription. I am trying to decide how to prevent users from passing the program to others without purchasing it. I was thinking that on the very first run, the program could pull the MAC address from the computer it is run on, and create a constant at run time. This constant is then hard wired into the program and is used for comparison every time the program is run thereafter. If the MAC address do not match, it is on a different computer.
How do I recompile my .exe to include a globally declared constant used for comparison? And how do I use this variable throughout my program?Or is there a simpler way to create my program to require Key Codes for renewal once per year?
I did something that when I now load my program(VB 2008), my controls; combo boxes, buttons, progress bar, etc. look like they are from VB 2005 or like VBA buttons, not the rounded edge buttons of 2008.
They look like vb 2008 controls while I am in design view, but then they change their style when I run the program..

I'm trying to figure out how I can change a ListView's "Large ImageList" to another one at runtime. For example I have it attached to my Icons_64x64 ImageList right now but would want an option to switch it to Icons_128x128 at runtime. Hope that makes sense and someone has an idea out there. I haven't been able to come up with anything at all.

View 4 RepliesI'm writing a windows form application using vs2008. I need to connect to different SQL server express database files during runtime. There is a "how to do" video showing a technique for this
[Code]...
and then in the Form1_load sub and before calling the data adapter to fill data, insert codes below:
Dim strConnectingSting = NewConnectionString
My.Settings.RunTimeConnectionString = strConnectingSting
The method works but only for the first database. I found once adapter.fill is called and the connection to a database is established, the connection can't be changed.To do what I want, I have to create a startup project to call my main project. When I want to change connection, close the main project and start again.
I'm making a custom control that can be dragged around and it is semi transparent. I need it so that while it is moving (the mousemove event) that if it intersects a control that its parent becomes that control. I tried to have it iterate through all the controls and if control.bounds.intersectswith me.clientrectangle then me.parent = control type thing, but it did not work.

I'm working on my first web service and I'm having a blast doing it. I've got a client that talks to the web service installed on a test server. I'm ready to release the code and I realized that when I created the web reference I gave it a path to the web service. I do not want to hardcode this in my program, so I'm looking for a way to dynamically change the path to the web serivce.
What I've done is --
1. Create a web reference to the Web Service:[URL]
2. Built my client using this web reference
3. ... not sure where to go from here.
Basically, I want to stash a value in the app.config file and, on load, use this URL as the web service. Can someone point me in the right direction? There has to be a property I can modify at run time to point it to a some location.
For example here i have create a user control. the user control contains labels. when the user hit right arrow button on keyboard, the control will appear on form1. when the user control is there. user can select a label. and when user hit buttons on keyboard, the label.text will change according to the button hit on the keyboard. i have done this code. i just write it roughly here.
[Code]...
is this code above should i write on usercontrol1 code area or form1 code area? because i got confused here.
I want to change the icon on the systray during runtime, I've got this bit of code after googling my question.
Dim ico As New Icon(MYPATH & "CDROM01.ICO")
NotifyIcon1.Icon = ico
The thing is mypath can be different between running the prog in the IDE and when it's installed, where is the best place for the icon, and what would the path be?
I'm multiplying X*Y*Z in a loop of 200 interations Y is declared as a constant. A timer can cause the loop to pause for 10 seconds.
During this 10 sexond pause I would like to change the value of Y. It needs to be changed only for this run, not a permanent change which can be done in the declaration.
I have read through some other post and haven't been able to find an exact answer that I am looking for. I have a connection string saved in my.settings that I am using. My database is residing on a server. Now I am going to have to install this application at more then one area and they will have the database on their server. What I am wanting to do is for the application when it is loading to search the network to find the database and return the connection string without the user having to do anything. I know with a web application you can search the machine you are on for the connection string without knowing its location but was hoping there was some feature like that to search the network to find it.
