3D Programming Within The Microsoft Windows .NET Environment?
Apr 2, 2011
I want to learn 3D programming within the Microsoft Windows .NET environment. My best .NET language is VB.NET.My aim is to be able to create 3D images only. I do not want to create 3D videos or 3D games.Any suggestion of books or online resources that are suitable for VB.NET users like me?
UPDATE:
I know nothing about 3D programming and only have limited experiences in 2D graphics programming under .NET I can work in all versions of VB.NET and Visual Studio (2003-2010)

I'm working on a web portal for customers that will connect to Microsoft Dynamics. I don't want to make Dynamics CRM directly a internet facing deployment (IFD), so I'd like to use a separate database that the web interface interacts with and then use web services to move the data between the web portal database and Dynamics CRM. I'm just looking for thoughts on whether this is the best way to proceed and whether there are any good code examples, etc. that I can look at for implementing this? I saw Microsoft has a Customer Portal but it looks like it requires (at a cursory glance) an IFD deployment - which I don't want.

I'm converting all of my Windows XP production applications to Windows 7 and I am having a couple of problems.
1: Whenever I get an error, on the XP machines, it breaks execution and stops on the line of code with the problem. In Windows 7, it just throws a generic exception and I have no idea where the line of code with the error took place. Very frustrating.
2: In XP, I can edit changes on the fly while I am running code if I place breakpoints or follow along the code. If I try that in Windows 7, it says that's not allowed with 64 bit applications.

Background: I have 2 Apps. One spawns the other as a 2nd process. Both need Adminstrator rights to run.The below code (which spawns the 2nd app from the 1st) works just fine from my released Application (when I right click the 1st app icon and start as Administrator).
Problem is, from within the VB Express environment it does not. The 2nd app starts, then complains about Access Rights.Can I start a process with Administrator rights in Windows 7 from within the environment?

Overreaching amateur developer that is outsourcing some of my work and doing part of it as well. I've been working on a dictionary/ thesaurus / spell check & suggestion application that I am trying to get to work on all applications within the windows environment.
I've used hooking to get key stokes and show output as the person is typing for definitions and spelling suggestions. This isn't accomplishing everything I want. Works fine for spell checking and suggestions but to click on a word that already exists or for touch screen interfaces to touch a word it doesn't work.
I was reading the Raw Input API on MSDN and thought that would work but my developer that I've hired is advising me that the RAW input's scope is only on the window that has focus and so cannot do low level hooking. I'm considering giving the effort but wanted a 2nd third fourth perspective prior to making the effort.[URL]

I am trying to write a VB application that will talk with USB Printers. After seaching far and wide, I have come across a wiki that I think may be what I am looking for, but the examples are written in C, which is absolutely not my thing.I would like to use the functions SetupDiGetClassDevs, SetupDiEnumDevice Interfaces and SetupDiGetDeviceInterfaceDetail included in setupapi.dll to retrieve the devicename of the printer so I can then call CreateFile() from kernel32.dll to get a handle on the printer I would like to use. I'm not sure if the steps I've mentioned are the right way to retrieve the device name (hardcoding in a device name doesn't seem to work, so I'm assuming this is the only thing I can do). The main problem I am having with those functions is that I do not know how to call them. As I mentioned, I referenced a wiki, which can be found here, but I do not understand the parameters and structures etc.. that I need to pass in order for this to work. Can someone please explain the parameters (namely where to get the first parameter for SetupDiGetClass Devs), how to define the structures etc...If it matters, this is all the code I have for this task

FormA calls DialogB where user cancels DialogB which exits via ForceTermination(), see insert.Caller FormA check for DialogResult not = OK, which it isn't, and I can see this in debug as Abort(3).However, the code continues merrily along its way until I get a 'null reference' error which I'm trying to avoid via Force Termination().This is caused by the user cancelling DialogB, a selection process to get a database (SQL) instance.[code]

I've installed MonoDevelop 2.2b2 on my Windows workstation, which has the .NET 3.5 SDK installed and running fine (I can use VS Express and command-line compilation without a problem).Apparently MonoDevelop defaults to calling the Mono VB.NET compiler (vbcnc.exe) rather than the Microsoft compiler (vbc.exe) when building a project. (I haven't tried a C# project yet.)Is there a way to tell MonoDevelop to use the standard VB.NET compiler for .NET 3.5? I can't seem to find such an option anywhere in the application, solution, or project options.I like the MonoDevelop IDE (even better than SharpDevelop), but I'm not sold on installing and using Mono's compiler just yet, nor do I know if it can even handle the latest VB.NET / C# language features.

I'm trying to install Microsoft Speech SDK 5.1 on my Windows XP Professional computer for a VB.Net project I'm working on and I'm getting nowhere. I have Office 2007 Pro. Can anyone confirm or deny that this cannot be done? I have an old Office 2002 disk. Would it do any good to put that on the computer (due to the fact that you're supposed to install Speech through Office and Office 2007 does not do this)? Will installing Office 2002 interfere with Office 2007?

is this even necessary in VS2010 & .NET 4.0? I've been trying to take advantage of the new Windows 7 taskbar interfaces like the Jump List. The MSDN documentation/tutorial instructs me to include a System.Windows.Shell, but apparently Shell isn't a member of System.Windows. I downloaded the API code pack, but I am unsure of what to do with it. The instructions say to open the main solution file and build it:QuoteTo build the library (except the DirectX related features) in Visual Studio 2008, please extract the contents of the �WindowsAPICodePack.zip� file in a new folder and build the included �WindowsAPICodePack.sln� file.And so I did that, but that is the extent of the instructions. I thought maybe it was a Visual Studio extension, so I tried accessing Shell again to no avail. Do I need to add each of the respective namespaces' projects to the target solution to use the API Code pack?

Iam developing a Windows application using Visual Basic 2008 with a SQL Server database. Throughout the program I give the user as many options as possible and have no problem with either the database or the windows forms. The program does not initially require a Login and I want toprovide the User with the opportunity to add a Login to the system. The default Login form is perfectly satisfactory.
The problem is that I can't figure out how to program the change sothat the Login from isopens the program rather then th form designated as the StartUp form. this forum I am able to prgrammatically change the form but I can't figure out how to make the requirement a permanent factor. I tried using a Constant, but if the User wants to change, you can't change the constant. Its an apparantly simple yes/no situation but if I set a varable to yes and then change it to no the next time the program runs, the change will be lost.

I'm wondering if you can use the Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel in a windows service application type.
I've a windows form application which opens an Excel file and do some actions and save it as another file. All this is working perfect in windows forms. When I copy the same code and paste it in a windows service, then it is not possible to open the file even.
I receive the following error message:

this error seems to be an error on Microsoft's part with Windows 7 and DirectX9. DirectX11 on Windows 7 should be able to run DirectX9, but it says it can't find the assembly called "Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3D.dll". I know for a fact that he can play Assasins Creed on Windows 7 which uses DirectX9.. Why does that game work but not my application? I'm using VB.NET btw.

I want to create a windows installer package using visual studio. It is my understanding that there was a simple way to do this in vb6, you could add an installer like you can add a new form.
How can I do this in vb.net? I downloaded and installed the Windows SDK from [url]... because it said somewhere that it could create installer packages and had tools to do so for .net

Is it possible to expose an event in an Microsoft Office product to a Windows service? That is, are the Office product events shared with other processes like Windows services? I know I can handle these events in VBA code in Word/Excel. However if the code is disabled the handling does not occur. I want to be able to have a service run in the background to log these events as they occr.

On Windows Phone 7 to get the current control one would use
FocusManager.GetFocusedElement()
Wherea on Winform it is just ActiveControl.Why use 2 semantics which is a nuisance for portability ? Is there any difference of behavior you can see between the two ? If yes that makes sense, otherwise that doesn't.
