I have now spent a long time trying to figure out how to fix this problem, hoping someone here could give me some hints What I'm trying to do: I need a way to save mail items to a folder on the computer What I have done so far: I created a component, where you could drag a mail item from Outlook on to. This component then saves this mail item to a folder on the computer

Welcome to the All-In-One Code Framework! If you have any feedback,
Does anyone have an example of how to register an automation server in the ROT (Runtime Object Table) using IRunningObjectTable.Register and how to revoke it using IRunningObjectTable.Revoke?

View 6 RepliesI am trying to deploy a ClickOnce app. It had worked previously when the server was just sitting with .Net 2.0 installed (no SP). Recently the server had 3.5SP1 installed on it and now ClickOnce is failing with the error:Value does not fall within the expected range inside System.Deployment.
Here is the information posted on the MSDN forums (answers there are generally hit or miss for me) with the call stack:It was in VS 2005 w/SP1 and I tried changing the path I publish to, changing the installation URL, changing the assembly name, manually controlling versions, running mage -cc, manually removing all application data in %userprofile%AppDataLocalApps and even changing deployment servers completely but still get the same error:

I Have a BIG problem. I make applications on Visual basic 2010 and of course use clickonce. when another computer wants to install an application (From the mediafire in a ZIP folder) the user extracts the folder, launches either the "Setup" or the ClickOnce application and then selects install and the following error message appears:
"Unable to install or run the application. The Application requires thaat assembly Microsoft.VisualBasic.Powerpacks.Vs Version 10.0.0.0 be installed in the Global Assembly Cache (GAC) First. Please contact your system anministrator."
I have a application that I deployed to web server. Users go to "publish.htm" deployment web page to install my vb.net application. Where is the application installed? I don't think it is installed under "Program Files" like others.

View 1 RepliesI am having great difficulty installing my app from a Click Once Deployment from my website using IIS6 I have done some searching online and I have carried out everything I can find but still nothing. I have tried with the .deploy option on and off and I get the error:The Page Cannot Be Found - HTTP Error 404 when I hit the 'Install' button and its trying to launch /setup.exe I have added the following into Mime Types:

I have a program, written in VB 2008, that I deplpoy in Terminal server, that has some user settings (scope: user) that I'd like to modify locally. By default the user settings were not even installed locally. I think they are supposed to appear in the ClickOnce data directory. Using the following thread, I was able to get the user.settings installed locally:
[URL]
basically, i set my xml file as "Content" and I set the publish status as "Data File".
With this, my settings file appears in:
"C:Documents and SettingsusernameLocal SettingsApplication DataCompanyXYZProgramNameL.exe_Url_arzmal0maveh1nnwfib245pfk13xqfma1.0.0.0user.settings"
The problem is that modifying this file doesn't affect the application. I changed some settings, restarted the app, and changes were ignored.
I use VS 2008 Standard. If I do a QuickOnce deployment after resetting Application Files in the Publish Tab I get a bunch of messages saying that various files are not in the GAC. To solve this I change the Publish Status from Prerequisite (Auto) to Include and set Download Group to Required. Then when I install the application I get the splash screen and then the message that the application has stopped working. There was a workaround posted to delete /bin/obj/.cache etc, but I have no /bin/obj/ folder.
View 1 RepliesAll,I seem to have stumbled upon a ClickOnce error that stops me from auto-updating. When I Deploy my program using ClickOnce it publishes to the specified location and installs just fine. I can run my program no problem if I activate it from the start menu. However, I have code that registers the program as the default to open a specific file type. Naturally, I want my user to be able to double click on the file type of my choice and have my program open like normal. All-in-All this works.
The problem arises because I need my program to check for updates before loading my program, much like it does when I open the program from the start menu (I set the auto-update check within the ClickOnce options). However, this check does NOT run when the user double-clicks a file type to run my program, it merely skips this step and opens the program. So first I tried to find a way to run the Update manually through code, what I cam up with was this: [Code]
I use ClickOnce Deployment on my application to get the update feature.But i really do not like the deployment and the setup Is their a way I can use the Visual Studio setup feature to make a msi package for my application but still have the update feature?
View 4 RepliesI've used VB2008EE to create a Windows Forms app which includes a Help form. The helpform contains a Treeview for navigation and a WebBrowser control which displays the relevant part of an HTML page containg the help information.The app is intended to be used offline - so I need to include the HTML page file as part of the published app, and I need to be able to specify where this HTML file will be installed on the target computer so that the URI in my Helpform which loads the Help page will locate this file.
(I expect the HTML file should live in the directory pointed to by the:
My.Computer.FileSystem.SpecialDirectories.CurrentUserApplicationData property)
how to specify the Project settings and Publish Wizard etc. (& whatever else is necessary) in order to achieve the above.

I have an application that I'm deploying using Clickonce that includes the Report Viewer. On my development machine, the reports work perfectly. However, on client machines, the reports are having printing problems. On some machines, the first print sends a 2 page document to a printer that displays an error message. On those machines, printing the second time is successful. On other machines, the first attempt doesn't get sent to the printer at all. Subsequent attempts work just fine.This happens each time a form with the report viewer is displayed - the user must print twice to get a correct print-out of the report.
NOTE: if I create a network shortcut to the application for a user that has NOT installed the Clickonce app, they are able to print from the Reportviewer without any issues. However, once they install the Clickonce app, the Reportviewer is "broken" (for lack of a better word) and won't print on the first attempt in ANY application.I know that I probably need to do something in my Publish settings to force the correct, newer version of the Reportviewer to be installed, but I can't figure out what that is.
I have Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Reportviewer selected in the Prerequisites list, and there are 4 Reportviewer files in the Application Files list:Microsoft.ReportViewer.Common.dll - Prerequisite (Auto)Microsoft.ReportViewer.ProcessingObjectModel.dll - Prerequisite (Auto)Microsoft.ReportViewer.WinForms.dll - Prerequisite (Auto)Microsoft.ReportViewer.WinForms.xml - Exclude (Auto)?
My application/project has an Access Database as its Project DataSource. I have a DataSet Designer (.xsd), with many TableAdapters, some of which I've created via the Designer. I have 2-10 users/foreman on any given workday, with their own Netbook and my ClickOnce Application.Users will add/edit/delete records in each of their own versions of the App/DataBase, XML files, representing changes, are created and upload to an ftp server.The corner I've painted myself into:When my Project Manager downloads these XML files using his own version of the application, analyzes each reported item, confirms and updates his version what is the best way to propagate those updates back to each user without having to update the project db and publish again?
View 4 RepliesI have a ClickOnce application deployed to many workstations in my office. On it's first run it adds a registry key to the HKCU run group that adds itself with a "-minimize" argument. On each login the program starts and seeing the command line argument minimizes itself. However when a update is published the program does not update. If the program is run from its menu shortcut without arguments it runs fine. I then looked up how to update programmaticaly and put that code into my program to run at startup.
But my.application.isnetworkdeployed returns False when command line arguments are passed to the app and TRUE when run without command line arguments even though in both cases it is network deployed. Since my program starts up with command line arguments and stays minimized while the computer is on there is no reason for a user to close the program and reopen it through a menu item but as of right now that's the only way the program updates. Is this a bug or how ClickOnce is supposed to work?
Example: Create a new program. On the form add a textbox. In the Form load event put something like:
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
TextBox1.Text = My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath.ToString & "" & My.Application.Info.AssemblyName & ".exe"
MsgBox("Is my app network deployed?: " & My.Application.IsNetworkDeployed)
End Sub
Deploy the app. Start it with a menu item and it returns True. Start it with any command like argument (use the path from the box) and it returns false. Why? How is that possible? The app didn't magically become non network deployed because it was passed a command line argument.
I am using the built-in My.Settings functionality in VB.NET to save application settings.
This is very convenient but I notice that each time I release a new version, the settings are lost.
Why and how can I prevent it?

The installation is supposed to create a listing on the Start menu but this isn't happening.

View 2 RepliesI am coding an API providing some functionalities for sending and receiving email on outlook programmatically.The functionalittes I need work fin in my API but each time the API wants to access each mail item's details user gets a dialog box propt from outlook asking for confirmation which is annoying because the API has a timer to run every 5 minutes to check the inbox of outlook to see if any new email has come to the inbox and if yes doing some checking on emails and storing the emails information behind the sceen.
There fore I need to disable the security dialog box programmatically while the code is running in my API.I know there are some packages for sale to manage this (such as Outlook Security Manager)
I'm programming a mass emailer for my newsletter using Outlook.Everything is working great except for two security dialog boxes...The first is how long I should give my application and the second is "if I should let my program send out the email".I do really understand this is perfect security but I need to have Outlook trust my application.These newsletters are going to 1000 people and this would be really tedious if I had to click each dialog box.

View 3 RepliesWhen I send a mail from my external program through Outlook, then I get the security warning.
I've tried bypassing it with secman and redemption, but both these tools doesn't allow the app to be "Any CPU".
I need the app to be Any CPU because it must be x64 on client and x86 in design (since designer doesn't allow inherited forms on x64).
So how would you go around Outlook security?
Should I write some kind of TCP-listener-Outlook-Addin and then send a TCPIP from client with mail info?

I have a Visual Basic.Net Windows Forms application to which I am considering adding the WebBrowser control. I'm assuming that the PC's on which this application will ultimately be deployed/installed will have the latest Windows (XP, Vista, or 7) updates, a firewall, and an Internet security suite installed/running.
With this deployment environment in mind, does the WebBrowser control make my application or the deployment PC vulnerable to any significant security risks? Are there any programming issues that should be addressed to eliminate potential security risks when using the WebBrowser control?
I've had a ClickOnce app in use for a few months now, but recently started getting an error on my deployment of the latest version. With this latest version I've added a reference to a DLL that I hadn't used before (FTD2XX_NET.dll if it's relevant), and suspect that this is related to the issue but I cannot figure out how to fix it.
The actual project being deployed references another library project, which is what references the DLL (it references other DLL's but that has worked for months and they haven't changed). Following these threads I've tried deleting my "Local Settings/Apps" folder and rebooting multiple times, as well as recreating the project and deploying to a different location. The error exists on multiple machines so I do not suspect it's user profile corruption. Here is the full error I'm given:
[Code]...
Edit: It seems the problem is spreading. On the second machine I purged all of the ClickOnce files in the "Local Settings/Apps" so I had to reinstall an old program. When I went to do so it gave me the same error. This program was last updated in February. In response I tried totally removing and reinstalling the .NET framework to no avail.
