View 5 RepliesI have an application that monitors a set of opc boolean tags.When a tag changes from false to true (triggered), the application is supposed to query the database for data recording during a specific time period.I had the app done or so i thought until i realized that the background worker that i dimension to do the query is not firing the runworker completed event.at the start of the app, I create a new class for each trigger config in an xml file. Each trigger class has its own opc monitor and handle specific for that one boolean tag.If a tag changes to true a NEW instance of the query class is created.A new background worker instance is dimensioned to do the actual work.(this because there is a pre trigger query and a post trigger query which could be up to 24 hrs after the event has been "triggered" to true and the bg worker will wait until the required amount of time has completed before doing the post query).When the bg worker has completed, it should dispose of itself and all its managed resources.
The very first tag that changes to true will function as expected but when it is complete the RunWorkerCompleted will not fire. Everyone there after will operate as expected but not the very first one.I couldnt figure out why so I started commenting out some code.If I remove the line to create a new oracle connection, it works.

View 5 RepliesMy company currently has vb.net 2003. I am tasked with evaluating vb.net 2008. And suggest if upgrading to 2008 edition is necessary or if it will be beneficial. For this purpose I decided to experiment with vb.net 2008 express. I have some questions regarding this.
1) Will vb.net 2008 express edition will give me idea about new features etc. ?
2) If I install vb.net 2008 express edition on machine which has vb.net 2003, will it cause any problems to vb.net 2003 ?
3) If I code in vb.net 2008 express edition, on upgrading will this same code work ?
I'm using Visual Basic 2008 Express and am having problems making an install.It has been suggested that the Express (free edition) only allows you to install only on computers that also have Visual Studio.Do I need the Full version to be able to distribute my application to a variety of computers?

View 4 RepliesI know the express edition of Vb does not give a detailed publish but i want to ask something. I have made program that uses database (Sql), and also my program uses folders (Help, Pictures etc..) I tried to publish my program but the express edition does not have an option to add my folders. So i tried to publish with "inno setup" program. But this time my program does not work in computers which dont have "Sql Server 2008 express". I tried to put "Read me " file, that says "First setup Sql Server 2008 Express from internet then setup .Net Framework from internet then setup the program" but it is so hard for user to do those thing. Is there any way easier? (Does the computer must have Sql Server to work with my database?)

View 1 RepliesI'm doing a project for school (I'm in Year 6, Primary School, Australia) and I'm trying to create a measurements converter with Visual Basic. Unfortunately I have a problem (and no teachers in the school have a clue on how to use visual basic).Basically the program just converts a specified amount of one unit of measurement and converts it to another unit of measurement.A message box then pops up telling the user the answer. Eg. A user specifies that they want 1 mile converted to 1 kilometre a message box will pop up telling them what the answer would be. In this case it would be about 1.6 kilometres.

I would like to have one combo box associated with another combo box. When the first one is selected the price is displayed in the next one. The information is got from a txt file and the item name loads in the first combo box and the price loads in the other combo box. What I want it to do is to show the correct price when the first box is selected for the item Here is a copy of my code at the moment. [code]
