I have been dealing with this problem for awhile now, and ever since I tried publishing my application, I keep getting this error:Error1Could not find file 'Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls, Version=6.0.0.0, Culture=*, PublicKeyToken=6595b64144ccf1df, ProcessorArchitecture=*, Type=win32'.ifxtweet2

View 5 RepliesI have just written an application in visual studio 2005, and would like to publish it for use on another computer. When I try to run the publisher, it fails and reports that it is missing an XML file that is located in the bin folder. I have checked the bin folder and the file is there. I am not sure what I am doing wrong? Has anyone else seen this type of error before?
Also, I should point out that while I was creating this app, I would some times copy the project to my desk top, and then change the name of the project folder. For example: myProgramV0 would be come myProgramV1. Then I would copy this back into where I normally keep my VB projects. I do not know if this had an effect on the program or not.
I am trying to cycle throught the lables on my form but it would appear that I am missing quite a few labels... I have a total of 69 lables on my form and I only get 5 hits on the msgbox.

I have a form in VB Express 2008 and my form has lost some of its controls. The form size suddenly changed to 945, 591 pixels and every control outside of this is lost. I have all the codes intact and application can run. I simply cann't see the controls and its contents.
View 11 RepliesWhat is happening is after dropping a few controls onto a new windows form. I have found that for no apparent reason some of the controls just go missing. As of this post i just dragged a group box with a half dozen labels buttons and textboxes off to the bottom of the designer. I went to move them back up and found that i had lost 2 labels and 2 textboxes! Doing a clean build gives no errors. Windows still thinks they are on the form.
View 4 RepliesI've recently started using C# after years of using VB.NETWhen using Visual Studio, using VB.NET, on the code behind files (.aspx.vb) i could select from a list of controls in my markup file (.aspx) and then select an event to automatically put into my code behind.

I have a total of 69 lables on my form and I only get 5 hits on the msgbox. All controls were placed on design time on the form and not on panels or tabs. Also upon inspecting the me.controls. the count is incorrect as it is missing exactly 64 controls. (The missing lables).

i have a form with 6 tabs on 3 of which have controls, spent a lot of time putting it all together, set it up to link to a SQL DB, all working fine,Until....at the bottom of the form (in design mode) you have the icons that say BindingSource1 and CustomerDataSet1 etc.Well i accidently deleted some, now when i run the form i got an error saying that it couldnt load, i see the code is there but the form is just the blank form you get when you start(the form is still the same name and if i click view code all the code is there, but on the form are no controls, no tabs ... its all gone....(i only deleted a binding source ) i dont understand where its all gone.
when you click on the undo it didnt put the deleted items back (and i am not sure which one there were) now that the form has gone back to normal there are no Binding sources at the bottom I opened the designer code, i see the names of all the missing items, e.g. CustomersDataSet1 and TblCustomers1BindingSource1 e.t.c do i just re add those back to the bottom of the form and then the main controls will re appear?
I have looked through the code and re added the binding sources and adapters that are referenced in the code along with the Binding navigator, if i run it the form is still blank.I have tried to add the controls back and when i do it adds it as e.gTblCustomers1BindingSource2 if i try to rename them to the name they should be ie. TblCustomers1BindingSource1 it says it already existsI am using VB 2008 Pro?
What is the 'proper way' of giving my application to people?
Ideally I just want to zip up the minimal amount of files and for people to put this in a folder of their choice and just run it.
I've noticed from playing with a "Publish" I end up with a "setup.exe" and also a "Application Files" folder.
Within that folder are the necessary files (a DLL and a .EXE) to run my application. Can I just supply those two files out to people?
Every time I compile my application, during install I get the error:Cannot download application, the application is missing required files

View 1 RepliesI am making an application that will organize the movies and their release dates for me and that it will notify me whenever a movie is released. So far I have the layout almost done with some parts missing.
BASICS
1. At the top as you can see I want the text to display the current day and having the tool tip to say "Today is Tuesday 19, 2009" while I want the text to be centered.
2. I want to have a poster with a specific size (dimensions) that will be displayed when the movie is selected at the data grid and I want the buttons to be able to select the previous or next data grid line, meaning next/previous movie.
3. I want to make the buttons either check all the boxes or uncheck them all. And I want the validate button to be able to compare the date of the selected movie with the current day and tell me If it was released today or not.
4. I will make a menu at the top that will be giving you the ability to add movies or select and delete movies, while when adding being able to specify a poster for the movie.
5. I want every time that I run the app to automatically check the dates and either ask me to remove those who have been released some time ago or give me a message like "Movie was released today".

in one of my previous posts, I wondered why it is that my application runs well on my laptop, but not on the laptop on my desk...When I run the application on the laptop on my work, it works...it loads...but the graphic part won't work. He gives a red cross with an OverFlow Exception, which he doesn't give when debugging on my own laptop. I checked for the memory use of the system and it only needs approx 100Mb when it's running the complete graphical part.
I was wondering whether it's possible that my laptop on my work doesn't have the right dll files to do it all. I only use standard dll-files from Visual Basic, so no downloaded dll files.Do you have to add somewhere that he has to include the Drawing.dll? because all the rest works really fine.
I made a .exe file of my project (in vb2008 express ed.) and it was all working and then I copied the release file out of my project and an error came up (something about UNC share) and i realized the path was wrong, so when I tried to delete the Release file (currently on my desktop) a pop up message says you need to be administrator to delete this file so I press continue (as I am the administrator) and another message comes up saying "You need permission to do this" "Try Again?", when I click "Try Again" the same message comes up. I know this isn't directly involved with VB, which leads me to my second issue:
How can I create a file that is external from VB yet it still works? In my code there is a path that connects it to SQL is it perhaps something to do with that?

View 5 RepliesI have a system that scans in images to multi page tiff files and allows the user to preview before finalising. When the user previews,they click on the page number which should then use the TiffBitmapDecoder to read that particular frame in from the Tiff file and display the BitmapSource in an Image control...this works just fine. The problem comes in when they scan another page which is then inserted into the tiff file. The tiff file is returning that it cannot be accessed as another process is using it. How do I get the TiffBitmapDecoder to release the Tiff file?

My application watches two buttons:
1. F11 => my application minimizes and hides another window (windowHandle is its handle), then sends there WM_RBUTTONDOWN (right mouse button click&hold).
2. F12 => my application unhides and restores that window, then sends WM_RBUTTONUP (right mouse button release).
The problem is when I press F11, and then click somewhere (so windowHandle loses focus), the right mouse button releases automatically, but I want it could be released only after I press F12. Here is part of my

I've got ASP.NET intranet application written in VB. It gets a file from the user, and then depending on a few different cases it may create a few copies of the file as well as move the original.
Unfortunately I've come across a case where I get this error:
Exception Details: System.IO.IOException: The process cannot access the file
'\somedirD09_03_5_180_0.000-6.788.png' because it is being used by another process.
Which is thrown by My.Computer.FileSystem.CopyFile. And that's fine that it's being used by another process - it may still be saving/downloading from the user or trying to copy while another thread(?) is copying, I don't really care about that, what I want to know:
Is there any way that I can tell VB to wait to copy (also move) the file until the file is no longer in use?
How can I combine all of the output Released files into just a single .exe file? Like for example I have these file extensions: .exe, .pdb, .vshost, vshost.exe, vshost.exe.manifest, and then 2 xml files that have to do with my program.
So once again I am trying to get all of these files into possibly one file. Do you know how when you go into your Windows Program Files folder, there are none of these files. I am basically trying to do the same thing.
