Im building an application, will be releasing its beta version for a group of beta testers.I want to add "b" to the version number.E.g. my application's version number will be 1.0.0.0b. Since I use Application.ProductVersion to retrieve version number wherever I have to display it or use it, I thought there must be some way of adding the alphabet ("b") to the version number.
View 7 RepliesWhat's the best way to store that the app is beta?You can't enter letters in the assembly info version (a "b" would be great).So is a setting who is set to Beta = True the best? I don't want to hardcode it, I want it to be at one place in the program.

View 6 RepliesI am just wondering how I can add Direct X references to Visual Basic in Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2. I cant find them in the .NET reference list, or the reference list, or anywhere. I downloaded the Direct X SDK for August 2009, but I can not add the .dll files to the reference list. Is there anything I can do to add them? I need the references for programming reasons.

Whenever I build my VB.Net project, the Assembly version does not automatically update as it is supposed to with the * in the third box in the Assembly Information. The only way I have found to (sometimes - it doesn't always work) get the version number to update is to Clean the Project, remove the *, Rebuild, reClean, put the * back in, and Rebuild again. What could be causing this issue to happen?
I should note that my coworker reports no such issue on his machine when Building the same Project; also, I must admit to some confusion on my part as to how this behavior is even possible, given that the error persists even if I remove every possible intermediate file I can think of that could possibly even be carrying the old version number, so how does it even know the old version number?
How do I programmatically increment a given version's number to the next version of the highest one?
For example if I have a file Program.exe with the following version numbers :
Program.exe 1.0.0.0
Program.exe 1.0.0.4
Program.exe 1.1.0.76
Program.exe 1.0.0.66
The next version number in this case would be 1.1.0.77
What's the easiest way to implement that?
This is probably an easy question: I need to change my version number from 5.4 to 5.5. This is not the assembly version, but the version (I think) of my executable.

View 6 RepliesI have written a small program in VB 2010 Express and I would like to show the version number of my program on the form. I looked through the HELP files and found an example. I put the example in my code like this:'Get the version of the current application.

Dim assemName As AssemblyName = assem.GetName()
Dim ver As Version = assemName.Version
Me.Text = "1st CPC Check Deposit Program Version" & " " & ver.ToString
I am up to version 1.0.0.8 but this is what prints:
1st CPC Check Deposit Program Version 1.0.0.0
Why doesn't it print 1.0.0.8 ?
I've defined two numbers. ThisVersionNumber and LatestVersionNumber, I want to compare them, and so if ThisVersionNumber = < LatestVersionNumber it will show a dialogue.

You can get the version of your application sing My.Application.Info.Version. Is it also possible to set this version using code? This because I have a webservice that connects to a database and retrieves a version number.My application then compares that version number with his one, if it's old.. then it will download new files and change his version number.

View 4 RepliesI created a set up project and assigned a version number at Version property as 1.0.0.

2) Display this version number in main.vb page?
I have created a com dll in vb 2005 and used in vb6. It's working fine.
I have a question why Windows Explorer does not show it�s version number? I have properly set both the Assembly version and File version.
Again I did create a test com dll - windows explorer does show it's version number properly.
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).

This sounds like the stupidest question ever!!! BUT what is the code for adding a number to a label with the label's value being calculated dependent on user input?! So you choose 2 numbers to multiply, If a box is ticked then you add 10 to the label. I've got everything else I just can't work out the structure/code for this little bit.

I have a fixed percentage 0.3% I need to multiply this by a number of months which varies 1 to 12
Having done this I need to add the percentage to a pre-determined number
so as an example
£300 + (0.3 * 10)
I can get the 3% (0.3 * 10)
But when I add this to the existing number (£300) it equals £303 not £309 which is what it should equal.
Can anyone advise the way of adding a percentage as appose to just another number? This also need to allow for -percentages i.e. -3%
The equation I am using is below and I appreciate there is nothing to set decTotalPercentage as an actual percentage but that's because I am stumped...
decTotalPercentage = decPercentage * intMonths
decFinalPercentage = decMoney + decTotalPercentage
