I just converted a project of mine from VB2008 to VB2010 All I did was open the solution file with VB2010, at which point it prompted and guided me through a one-time conversion process (no errors)
View 2 RepliesThis is project made in VB.NET 2003 Boutique Management System (BMS) - Visual Basic , VB.NET
I am able to convert it into VB.NET 2008 by Visual Studio 2008 but i'm not able to add the reference of "ButtonMacam2.ocx" after converting. When i add the ButtonMacam2.ocx file by 'Add Reference' error occurs.

View 2 RepliesI upgraded vb6 project to vb.net. Conversion of 3 user controls from vb6 to vb.net have done. Some converted code contains code like:
VB6.TwipsToPixelsY(LedHeight)
MyBase.Width = VB6.TwipsToPixelsX(VB6.PixelsToTwipsX(LedCol(0).Width) + 15)
The converted project takes too much time to load than previous vb6 project. What manual changes to the code should be done or is there any other option. Is it due to vb6 to vb.net conversion.
I converted one of my projects from Visual Basic 6.0 to Visual Basic.NET and noticed stuff such as:

Clicking on the link it talking about Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices. Which, I am guessing means the project a mixture of both .NET and .COM. How would I rewrite to be totally .Net compatible instead of relying on .COM?Also where would I put code in VB.NET if it was in the Form_Initialize() sub in VB6.0?
Possible Duplicate: What's the purpose of the Tuple(T1)/Singleton in .net?
Trying to mimic a Tuple as implemented in .Net 4 (For .Net 3) I just realized there is a Tuple(Of T)? This was quite a surprize!
Tuple<string> result = new Tuple<string>("Data");
Instead of this
return "Data";
Isn't the whole point of a tuple that its a container for "loosely related data that isnt cohesive enough to make another class"?
I just tried to convert some of my Projects from VB2008 to VB2010 RC, but got compiling Errors while compiling the resX Files. Seems like the reason are ImageLists/Icons, since if I remove them the files compile fine. I already tried to edit the Forms witch are showing the Errors with the Designer. The Designer changed the Content of the resX file lightly, but the error was still present Here the Error(German Version): 'FormsfrmUserTmpBUTable.resx : error RG0000: Der Objektverweis wurde nicht auf eine Objektinstanz festgelegt.' I recall a similar error in the Beta, but since I can't find it anymore, I guessed it was fixed.
View 4 RepliesI am not able to use Format function in a converted VB2008 project in VS 2010.

Has that function been deprecated? If so, what is the alternative?
Retrieving items from a Tuple is done by accessing the ItemX property. Is there a way of naming each item so that using the Tuple will be more readable?
Code:
Looking for something like this:
Dim l As New Tuple(Of String, Integer)
l.Name
l.ID
Instead of:
Dim l As New Tuple(Of String, Integer)
l.Item1
l.Item2
I haven't touched a project in about 8 months. It's ongoing for work, but hasn't really been published fully so it gets worked on in my spare time. I went to recompile and the build failed. It had previously worked. I can't figure out why. Part seems to be due to AxOWC11 being recognized, but it shows up in the namespaces. I'm looking for the .dll that shows up as AxOWC11.dll, but I'm not seeing any. I do have one that shows up as AxInterop.OWC11.dll and I do have just a OWC11.dll in my list. I've posted some of the errors below.

i know someone will say this belongs in database programming but i don't think this problem is to do with databases and is more to do with visual studio.
when i start to type oledb.oledb..... intellisense would usually give me an option for oledbcommandbuilder. in the current program i am doing for coursework this option is not given. i can choose oledb.oledbcommand but i do not know how to use it (too advanced for A-levels, yes i'm british) if i actually type oledb.oledbcommandbuilder visual studio does'nt show an error in my error list. so what is going on? how can i get visual studio to recognise oledb.oledbcommandbuilder?
I would like to start a data base. Im using vb2005. I've started a new windows application. I have added a new data source to the project. Then I added a new TableAdapter in the dataSet.xsd part of the project. When I'm completeting the wizard, when I click on the QueryBuilder, when the add table window opens, the table already in the program ( that comes along with the TableAdapter ) isn't recognized. I've clicked on the refresh button but it still isn't recognized. (example: DataTable1 isn't recognized in the add table form in the query biulder of DataTable1TableAdapter)

View 11 RepliesI'm trying to use MailDefinition in my vb.Net application, but the class is not being found.
Actions:Imports System.Net.Mail ' I use this statement
My intelliSense typing does not show MailDefinition. I get as far as Sytem.Net.Mail - but MailDefinition is not an option.I tried added a reference to System.Net (not necessary, but trying different things), still it doesn't recognize the class.
Question:Do I need to register a DLL or something? How do I gain access to class MailDefinition in my Form class?
EDIT:BTW: In object browser MailDefinition is defined as:
System.Web.UI.WebControls.MailDefinition
I get an error saying that UI is not a member of Web Does this mean I need to add this control? it's not on my Toolbox. Should I look for and register an OCX file?

View 3 RepliesI have a small app with one form (form1) which is supposed to be hidden until a hot key combo is pressed. I have read and taken sample code from: [URL]. I do have a keyboard class that hooks keyboard input, (I have my reasons) but it's odd that it will recognise the first hotkey and fire the event, but none after that? The problem is, I can make the form show, but not hide again. It will only recognise one shortcut, one time. How do I make it respond to another hotkey combo? Is the handle changing? Even with focus, the enabled form is not hiding again.

I am trying to parse a date to a datetime picker but this error keeps on appearing "String was not recognized as a valid DateTime" The reason behind this is because the date format of the computer is "MM/dd/yyyy" whereas the date am passing is in this format "dd/MM/yyyy" Here is how I tried resolving the problem:
DTDateReceived.Value = Date.Parse(ListView1.Items.Item(ListView1.FocusedItem.Index).SubItems(7).Text)
The aforementioned error occurs
working with dates is driving me mad I have the following function to parse al datetime strings in my project:
Public Shared Function ToDate(ByVal obj As Object) As DateTime?
If obj = String.Empty OrElse obj Is DBNull.Value Then Return Nothing
Return DateTime.Parse(obj.ToString)
End Function
Most of my date strings on my pc are "yyyy/MM/dd" and it parses fine. However on the server the dates are "dd/MM/yyyy".I tried this but it made no difference:
Public Shared Function ToDate(ByVal obj As Object) As DateTime?
If obj = String.Empty OrElse obj Is DBNull.Value Then Return Nothing
Return DateTime.Parse(obj.ToString, System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture.DateTimeFormat)
End Function
on my pc if I assign DateTime.Now to a textbox I get 2011/05/31 08:02:00 AM for example. On the server I have my project the date displays as 31/05/2011 08:02:00 AM. Now I use objectdatasources to save the values to my database. Yesterday I was getting this error:Cannot convert value of parameter '' from 'System.String' to 'System.DateTime'until I formatted the date value like so:
Me.odsRates.InsertParameters.Add("CreatedDate", rt.CreatedDate.ToString("yyyy/MM/dd hh:mm:ss"))

View 5 RepliesAfter successfully running an executable file several days ago, I am suddenly encountering a number of inexplicable errors. One concerns the lack of recognition of two libraries:

How could they previously be found but not now?I am using another workstation but loaded (so I thought) the same application and references.
We have data feed, a file with index values and dates (like the S&P 500, for instance). The dates are represented as YYYYMMDD. The Date.Parse() method doesn't understand this format, of course.I wrote a simple static method on a class to parse this, not a big deal, but it irritates the engineer in me that I can't figure out how to get the IFormatProvider functionality to work. All the examples deal with the FORMATTING step, not the PARSING step.So basically, I want to be able to say:
Dim d as DateTime = Date.Parse("20110522", New CustomFormatter())
and get the correct date value out of the Parse method.
Having implemented the IFormatProvider method on CustomFormatter, the GetFormat() method gets called with a System.Type of DateTimeFormatInfo, but I honestly have no idea what to do from there since all the example deal with formatting, not parsing. It doesn't matter if I return an object (self) or null I simply get "String was not recognized as a valid DateTime."
