I have created a program in VB.Net using Visual Studio 2008, the program works fine and everything is working until I try to install it.I need to be able to add it to a flash drive so I can load it up on a handheld device. I have gone through the publish wizard on my PC and created the Application Manifest and other Files on my PC, I have then copied this folder onto a memory stick and then accessed it through the handheld and run the set up. everything seems to work but when I try and access the program I get an error message stating that the program can not find the database file; it tells me to check the path [Data Source = database1.sdf] i have searched for my database and it does not appear that it has been deployed.No idea what the problem could be as this is the first time I have tried deploying an SQL Server compact database with a program.The device I am deploying too is a panasonic Toughbook which is running Windows XP, it already contains an application which runs an SQL Server DB.
I wrote a program in VB.NET which uses several .dlls that I programed in c++. The dlls wrap some functions from an old version of the program. On my development computer everything works fine but I build a release version, copy it and the dlls onto the target machine and the .exe starts up fine. When the program tries to use a function from the .dll it throws an exception and says "unable to load DLL "c:/the path/my.dll" the specified module can't be found."I don't know if it makes any difference, but I am defining the dll functions in the main vb project using:Declare Function MyFunction Lib "c:/the path/my.dll" (ByVal in1 as Double, ByRef out1 as Double) as Integer.I have checked the .net framework on the target and version 4 seems to be installed same as the development computer. Both are windows XP machines. I have no idea if it is the way I programmed the .dlls or just something with my vb.net project.
When depolying a Windows Application with a CD How does one depoly Folders, with a large number pictures in them, along with the program that uses them!Further, when having the Control Panel utillities Uninstall the Program, how can you get it to remove the Folders containing the pictures along with the program that was installed with the pictures, assuming you can do so in the first place?Do not suggest using C or any other laguage please!
I've written an application using Visual Basic 2008 Express. It's intended for widespread use on individual PCs running Windows XP (Service Pack 2) and later. It has been found to work nicely with XP, Vista and Windows 7. The queston: Will it work on the Windows operating systems used on tablet/slate computers - particularly Windows CE 6.0R3 and Windows 7?
I have a vb.net 3.5 regular desktop (Vista 32 Ultimate) application running. Now, the user wants to buy a Tablet PC and use that instead.Will it work? If not, where do I begin?!!If existing application works on a tablet pc, what does the user have to do to handwrite on a text box or a richtextbox or on an image?
I need to create a windows app for tablet to get signature.VS2008 do not have any control for it.Does vs2010 have this kind of control so that user can use pen to create signature in tablet?
Edit: I finally found something that works! Hooking the mouse, preventing actual mouse clicks when the mouse is over the control form and calling the click events manually did the trick I've recently been working on a virtual game pad to be controlled by a mouse (or more likely a touch screen on a tablet UPC). It is nearing completion and works exactly as I had hoped except for one issue. I created a topic about it in the VB6 section though as of yet I havn't found a working solution. I consider porting it to .NET if anyone here can give some insight.
I have writen a program using vb.net 2005 and used SQL Server 2000 as the database. I also used DataSet to process the records. When I try to run the program on a peer-to-peer network it fails and returns the error message
i would like some advice on how I would go about deploying my application I coded with vb.net and access.The problem I have been facing is that I cannot install it on another machine . It gives me an error saying that It cannot find the database in C:\Users\Weighbridge2\AppData\Local\Apps\2.0\Data\. database.accdb when you install access runtime and access runtime sp1 and copy the database to that location then it works.Is there a more efficient way of going about this. I suspect it has something to do with the refferences and prerequisites but up to now i've tried almost all we know .
I have designed a simple form in vb.net with MsAccess as the backend .The form is used to search for a data and diplay it.I need to create an .exe file of it and distribute it to many users without any errors .I have surfed a lot in search of deploying such applications but ended up nowhere . deploying my application(VB.NET with MSAccess) by detailing me all aspects of deployment ?
I have just completed an app, but i dont want to inculde the redistributable framework... What .dll(s) are required with the apps(so no framework is required) or can i just integrate framework and my app into 1 setup.exe.

I built this vb.net windows application that uses an Access DB for data storage and it works fine in visual studio. The problem is, when I deploy, install it from an MSI, i get this error: (see below)If I right click on it and run this program as administrator, it works fine. I thought it was a permissions problem so I gave user, administrator and system full rights to all the files in the directory. But I still get the error.Isn't giving all the files in the program directory full rights the same as making it run as admin?
I have developed an application in vb.net.I use a dll that I build as part of a different project in my solution. For some reason I don't get the full functionality of my application with the dll built as a "release" version, but it does work if the dll is built as a "debug" version (that's a whole different problem).I don't have a problem, for now, using the debug version.However, the problem I'm having is I am trying to deploy the application to another system and if I deploy the debug version of the dll I get a runtime error (see below).I have the .net Framework installed. I'm just wondering what has to be installed in order to allow me to use the debug version of the new system? [code]When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer rather than be handled by this dialog box.
have been trying to figure out for weeks now how to deploy my software With database to another computer. nothing seems to work. Is there a way I can do this Automatically. the software works on the other computer but it does not find the database and cannot connect either.
I have a project that uses web references to make SOAP calls to several web services. When I'm working locally, the services are hosted on my local machine, so the URL of each web service is something like [URL]. When I deploy the project to a server, the URL needs to change to the production URL. Currently I am accomplishing this with a prebuild event that does a find-and-replace on each URL and overwrites it with the deployment URL before deploying. Surely there is a better way.
I am having a real issue deploying applications when the URL is not available.how to do updates when the URL is not available? I guess I could always put it in code within a try/catch and do it that way.

I have deployed my app no problem on my laptop that has .net3. I want to distribute my app to office xp nodes. This there a way of deploying an application to use .net2 instead of 3?
It seems I cannot use Regsvr32.exe to register it, or perhaps I am just missing something? I have checked the Register for COM interop option in the project's Build. And the assembly is set its ComVisible to true.

Our Dev Team has heterogeneous OS systems, scattered between 32-bit and 64-bit. This is not ideal, we are actually planning to homogenize our infrastructure, but in the meantime we have to deal with it.The issue is that when a 32-bit developer checks out a 64-bit solution on SVN, he has to manually change the target platforms all over again to get it compiled (not to mention other side problems)
My question is : What clean (though temporary) solution could be addressed in such situation, permitting each developer to keep his default project/platform settings while checking out and in from SVN.I guess that -at least for the first time a project/solution is checked out, a dev still has to tweak the setting manually to compile it properly. After that, according to relevant SVN filters, it is possible to ignore some settings files (which ones, by the way?)
