Adding LAN / Internet Network Support To My Game In Microsoft 2010 Express
Feb 4, 2011
I've been working on my game for a while, in a non-online multi-player state it is complete. My goal is to add LAN or Internet Play support.My game is coded in Microsoft Visual Basic 2010 Express, It relies heavily on timers.Currently you play against the AI, and there is a Local multiplayer mode, using mice, controllers or the keyboard.At the moment, it is a two player, (Or 1 player against the AI) game, from my understanding the standard Client-to-Server option wouldn't very efficent, the best choice would be a peer-to-peer system.That being said, a lot of the stuff could be done client side, like for instance, the particle engine and Dynamic Rendering.[code]

Does the Express Version support adding multiple soultions (.sln) to a project or is this only available with the Professional version.I see that I can add a DLL as a reference that was built in 2010, but it is not letting me step into it with the debugger (or recompile changes to its source).

Next question.Does VB 2010 express support the my.computer etc. syntax? If so what do I have to do to use it? It appears to offer a pretty easy way to use FTP.

I'm planning on a very basic game created in VB.Net WinForms and a web server(shared) which will host PHP and MySQL.I think, I can create this basic game with no problems. But my headache is with the communication part In the db(MySQL db in the web server), there'll be usernames and password listed in a table. When my vb app is opened, it would ask for the username and password. The user enters his username and password. This data is compared with the data in the db. If a match is found, then the game starts and the user can play the game. At the end of game, it will ask for the confirmation to send highscores to the webserver. When confirmed by the user, the highscore will be send to the webserver, which will be then stored in the MySQL db.
The game will be a simple one just like Tic-Tac-Toe or a text based game.What all things do you recommend for the development/communication part of this game ?

I am trying to make a renaming program, which I have done, but wanted to add drag and drop support. Firstly, when I drag and drop the files into a listbox they appear to be going in and are ordered randomly. I want them to go into the order they're dragged in. Secondly, instead of having the entire path such as:
D:TVThe Big Bang Theory SeasonSeason 1The Big Bang Theory S01E01 - Pilot
I want just "The Big Bang Theory S01E01 - Pilot" to go into the listbox.

I am Using Visual Basic 2010 Express. And the Express Version Does Not have a MicrosoftReportViewer Facility. But is there an Alternative that can be used. I know Monies have to be made But Surely there should be an alternative For the Microsoft Visual Studio/Basic 2010/2008 Express User.or is there another way to create a reportViewer in Visual Studio/Basic 2010 Express. I have Downloaded the MicrosoftReportViewer Redistributable from
[URL]
and I run the setup but it does not work. I know there are other apps that might help me like crystal report. But I want to just use Microsoft version as it is a Microsoft Program.

I am getting the following compilation errors from Microsoft Visual Basic 2010 Express on the first line of my code:
Error 1 Newline in constant C: cdotnetdevsrcvbmain estHelper.vb 1 1 Component Sources
Error 2 Too many characters in character literal C: cdotnetdevsrcvbmainRtestHelper.vb 1 1 Component Sources
The first line of my code is simply:
' Copyright 2011
It is generating the same compilation error for all my comments. Does anyone know why MS VB Express 2010 is acting this weird? Comments in visual basic are supposed to start with a single apostrophe so I don't understand this weird behavior.

I'm actually a beginner in VB express. i made about 10 easy programs, now i decided to make one a bit difficult. I'm stuck at the beginning.In first form i have 2 Textboxes and 1 Button (1username, 1password, button - sign in) and then another 2 Textboxes and 1Button (1username, 1password, button - register) I want to make something like this for beginning: When you register the infos from textboxes (username & password) are saved in some file (let's say in info.txt or info.ini). I actually want to know how to automatically save these usernames and passwords in text file when you click register button, so when you want to login, you have to use registered username&password. So if there in text file is not the username you registered or typed in textbox you can't login.

I am building a VB 2008 Express Edition application.I have built a database (with a single table) using SQL Server Compact 3.5 and have connected it to the project. I am able to view and edit the data using a DataGridView on a second form (tutorial made this very easy). I need to work with the data in the table within the application. how to easily load the entire table into an array or even read the table a row or cell at a time so that I can make all of the data available for manipulation within the application (the tutorials only seem to show how to display the data).

I'm using Visual Basic/Studio 2010 Express to run my VB program using MS Access database. I'm going to convert the Access database to a SQL Server Server Express data base so I downloaded SQL Server 2008 R2 Express onto my pc with Windows 7. The installation went fine and I actually converted my Access database to SQL server. I did not change anything in my VB program.My problem: When I run my normal program with the Access database (no changes), I now get an error when it executes the following code:
dr = cmd.ExecuteReader.
I get the error System.Data.OleDb.OleDbException was unhandled;
ErrorCode=-2147467259; Message=ODBC--connection to 'SQL ServerBilotta-pcsqlexpress' failed.

It appears the ODBC is looking for the SQL server eventhough the program is pointing to the MS Access db. How do I get it to NOT look for the SQL db? Is there a default setting for the

I have an multi-database ODBC connection through a DSN. There is a primary database and two auxiliary catalogs. The Add Tables dialog in Microsoft Query only shows the tables in the primary database. If I pick one and continue on, the lists of columns in other parts of MS Query show all the columns in both the primary and auxiliary databases. If I pick a column, MS Query will look for that column in the primary database (great if it happens to be there, not so great if it doesn't). If I don't use any of the drop-down lists and just write a query in the freeform SQL editor, fully qualifying everything with the catalog names, the query runs fine.It looks as though MS Query is assuming only one database and one (default) catalog, and doesn't realize that it actually connected to several databases with separate catalogs.I get the same results with Office 2003 and Office 2007.Are multiple databases / multiple catalogs through a single DSN supported in Excel / Microsoft Query?

I am not able to add records in an Access 2007 database using VB 2010 Express Edition. I have read other posts and followed them but still I am not sucessful. I have the connection to the access database as MS Access Database, therefore it has the OLEDB connection (not the Jet 4.0). I am using the project instance in binding the text boxes to the fieldnames in the Access database. Did I miss something? I am also using Windows Vista Ultimate.
