I was wondering about the possiblity of creating a portable application in vb.net, not for anything specific - more out of curiousity than anything else. The only way that i have thought of doing this is creating an application, grabbing it out of /bin and it would save settings in a xml file or text document/whatever.

View 6 RepliesI have run into a problem with a couple of the "Sync" applications I wanted to create. In both instances, I am trying to connect a Portable Device to my computer and access it using VB.NET. One application would pull the pictures in from my camera, rename them, and put them in folders according to their date taken. The other would place the podcasts I have downloaded onto my Mp3 Player. I have the logic for both so that if I run it on two Windows directories, for example (C:Source and C:Destination) but when I try to access the Portable device using a directory browser, the "OK" button is disabled. Is there any way to access the directories on such a device?
View 2 RepliesI have an ASP.net 3.5 website and I am using vb.net in VWD 2008 Express, I am also using MS SQL Server 2008 Express, I used ajax tabs and a textBox charavters counter control develped by [url]...The database is attached with MS SQL Server Management Studio Express and the files are stored in the SQL default "Data" folder.
The whole project's code and forms are stored in a folder in my E drive.I need to hand the whole project to another coworker who have to finish it, please describe in steps how can i make my website portable (like i can put it all in a folder that he can carry around in his flash disk).
I have a simple app (coded in VB 2008 Express Edition) that uses an SQL Server database (in .mdf format) that works fine on my own machine. I created the database in SQL Server on this machine. I added the DB as a data source and it works fine. But when packaged this app (ClickOnce) and installed this app on a different machine the installer tries to download MS SQL Server Express. Obviously this is because SQL Server is a prerequisite and is not installed on the other machine. But just as obvious is the fact that the download will take a long time to complete before my code even starts installing.
My question is this: Is there an SQL Server reference (using Add Reference...) that I can add to avoid this? I suspect the application just needs one or two DLL files from SQL Server. Downloading the whole product seems like overkill. Is there a way I can included the needed files in my app to avoid this long download process?

I need to hand the whole project to another coworker who have to finish it, please describe in steps how can i make my website portable (like i can put it all in a folder that he can carry around in his flash disk).One more thing, I already finished my side of the project, I need to ship it out to this other programmer.
Can anyone suggest something like a: Checklist or Must Do list to achieve this?PS: I have had a problem trying to move the project from one server to the other, the project seems to look for the dlls of the AJAX control and the textBox counter where i originally unzipped the folders in which they cam in, which i think was on my desktop, although when i added those controls to the Tools tab, i created a new tab, then i choose the dll from the where i unzipped the controls source code, aint that enough?
Im planning to create a Remote Desktop Application and I'm having problem with viewing other computers monitor or screen.
Im not asking for the code on how to do it. and one more thing is it safe to use winsock in creating a client/server application?
I would like to use the .NET FileSystemWatcher class to monitor a folder path which is located on a device currently connected to the host computer and is being managed by Windows Mobile Device Center. The environment is Windows 7 Pro, x64.
When connected to the PC, the device is listed under "Computer" -> "Portable Devices", and I can navigate to its filesystem from there. When setting the "Path" property of my VB .NET app's FileSystemWatcher class object instance, however, it only accepts a valid string-representation of a standard filesystem path (eg. c:somedir hisdir), whereas the address bar of a navigable portable device reads "ComputerPocket_PC";a value which throws an exception at runtime.
Am I able to use the FileSystemWatcher class in this context? How else could I get a PC app to monitor file activity on a handheld device while it is attached?

View 11 RepliesI am doing a project on the CRM application which can sending or receiving of emails and sms. Most of the CRM application that has been build is using the web form which mean the application of the CRM is build as website. But the problem is that I am doing it in the windows application. The CRM application that I am doing is the the admin can send/receive emails and sms. It is some sort like microsoft outlook. but the difference is that in microsoft outlook it can only send emails. When i search the internet for the gateway, there is no free gateway. Is there any examples for sending or receiving of sms and emails. My group partner is doing on the emails which he uses the SMTP server.
View 1 RepliesI am doing a project of CRM application which does sending and receiving sms/email. I am doing this using the visual studios 2005 ans SQL Server Database to store the send or received sms/email. I have search on sms in the internet but the problem is that it is using C# as I am using the vb.net language. Even though some of the research that i came across is in vb.net but the application did not work.
In my research, the sending and receiving of sms application uses sms gateway, AT command. But I am not sure which one to use becoz I am doing this application for my project. Hope for any recommendation on which one to use either the sms gateway or AT command or any other device. My lecturer said that my project is most likely like the M2U Mozat. Not only that I am doing the sms but also the email. The email part is done by my partner but the problem is that he creates the email using the SMTP server. How can using a SMTP server to create sms? It is because the part that I am doing which is the sms and the email to combine together.
