View 3 RepliesI've downloaded the MSDN "101 VB Samples" from the MS site and I'm getting an error that reads "The project type is not supported by this installation". I can open the other files that I've tried (about a dozen in other folders), so I'm wondering if it is something specific with the VSTO files, or something about my VB setup.
I thought at first it was a problem with the path where the file is sitting, but even moving it from C:Documents and Settings[my name]My DocumentsMSDN to C: didn't work...Edit: I have also tried opening in notepad and converting the file to UTF-8, changing the File Association from MS Visual Studio version selector to devenv.exe, and running devenv /setup at the command prompt, all with no luck (all these ideas were found through Googling the error message....).

View 2 RepliesI have been working on an activeX control which works on serial port communication. Now I have completed the project and created its setup.exe using Visual studio 6 -> Tools -> Package and Deployment Wizard. Then I installed the control in another PC and in a new project included the control using project -> components. But when I click on the control in the toolbox and then include on the form it gives the following error : delete current link ? and on clicking OK, nothing happens. I tried searching a lot on google but didnt find anything. Another problem is that I have created a string array as a global array which can be accessed by all the methods.I am able to include the same activex control in my own pc when I have created the project. Here it works fine, I am able to access all the methods that I coded in the control, but the String array mentioned above can be accessed in other project. I tried writing Public before the array declaration but it give me the compile error : "Constants. fixed length strings, arrays, user defined types and Declare statements not allowed as Public members of object module."

I've published my application for installation via CD or DVD. I installed it on my machine and it worked fine. I have a couple of questions, I couldn't find the answer to in the GUI. First, when the application is installed, it immediately launches. Can I make something in the installation where a user can click a checkbox saying launch after install? If not, how can I disable the application from launching after the install. And secondly, the application is installed, a desktop shortcut is created, and the application is added to the programs on the start menu. How would I add an uninstall link in the program menu along with the icon to launch the application? Currently I have to go to the control panel add remove programs to remove the application.

I code on the side for a little extra cash. Up to now it has always been one off conversion programs. The problem is that I am being asked to generate a report program and there is a dealer acting as the go-between for the end user. I want to maintain control of this program. I don't want this dealer to be able to distribute it to all his customers (or worse sell it), but have no idea of the best way to do it. Since I do this on the side, I obviously cannot afford to purchase a third party utility.When I try to search, all I get are links to people asking what to do when an installation fails. Can anyone point me to a tutorial or article on how to do this without resorting to buying a utility?
View 4 RepliesI have finished my VB program and have been publishing it. I included all the necessary prerequisites and published it, and it worked fine. But then i tested it on some other computers, and while installing the prerequisite SQL server express, it will fail the installation.
When i installed it on computers with Windows 7, SQL did not require do restart and it worked fine. When i installed it on computers with Windows Vista and XP, SQL did require to restart and the installation will always fail.
I think i know whats causing it as well, while publishing it comes up with the warnings

View 4 RepliesI am trying to figure out where to place a code that would cause an application to always delete a database file ONLY when being installed. However, it should not delete this file after installation I.e. when being used. I know you can use: If File.exists() Then File.delete(). But where do you place this code sothat it does not Delele the file when being run? I have tried this but it copies a new file everytime I run the application and data is lost.
