Errors While Working With Data On Windows XP (SP3) Home Edition
Jan 4, 2011
We have designed an application designed for storing contact information of students (college study project).The application installed perfectly on Windows XP Home Edition (Service Pack 3). We also installed all the requirements (including .net 4) on the XP machine. But when we tried to work with any form that is linked with data, it pops up an error saying something about invalid casting for system.oledb.data and system.string.What may be the problem? This application runs fine on Windows 7, also loads fine in Windows XP Home Edition SP3. BUT when we open a form that has database linkups the above error pops up. Is it in anyway related to the .net framework? Which is possible our biggest doubt!This is really getting frustrating, as my group has worked really hard on this project. But, our prof., says that the project should work on Windows XP, but he is also stumped, with the reasons.

I cannot install Visual Basic 6.0 Pro Edition on my new computer which is on Windows 7 Home Edition. My old computer croaked, and I am trying to install it on my new computer with the disc that I have from installing on my old computer. The new computer is 64-bit Dell machine. The error message that I get is: "Microsoft has problems with this software on this Windows Edition". This is the essence of the message; may not be exact. I read about WOW as a work around, but how can I work around when I can't get it to install?

I have a program originally compiled in VS2008 on a WindowsXP Pro box. The program uses Microsoft DAO 3.5 Object Library to access an Access database.
When I try and run the program on Windows XP (any version) it runs just fine. If I try and run in on Vista (any version) it doesn't work. When I try and run it on Windows 7 Pro, it runs fine. I really want it to run on Windows 7 Home Premium, but I get an interop error anytime I try and access the database.

I must have inadvertly messed up my data connection but not sure how to fix it. when I check the table adapters I can view data but when I load the app I get these errors and no data loads, how can I look at this log and make sense of how to fix this?

As Vista, comctl32.ocx is not accepted by Windows 7, I tried your workaround typing "regsvr32 -u comctl32.ocx" in a dos window, but another error is generated, specifying that the file was not found. But I verified, comctl32.ocx is really present under this name in system32 folder.

I cannot get the VB monthcalendar control to obey any of the properties I set for it, or the commands I give it programatically. It works (sort of - but with obvious bugs) in the state it arrives when copied to a new form straight out of the toolbox, eg when I click on a date etc, however if I set the background colour in Properties (or programatically), or try to change the BoldedDates programatically (as per numerous examples I have found) it ignores me!
I can create a brand new project, new form, add the monthcalendar out of the toolbox, change its properties in the Properties window, & when I run it the changed properties (eg background colour) are totally ignored.

ive decided to try out win7 since its finally a bit more debugged, ive backed up very carefully all my projects, however there semms to be a problem with the one i was working on, this first chance exception error has been avoided and not even mentioned in winxp however in win7 it not only mentions it but makes the application crash, This is what its nagging me about, i dont get it isnt windows7 the same when it comes to mydocs? Was not possible to locate part of the path: C:UsersEugenDocumentsIOrganizeSettingsCalendarConfig
Sorry i had to translate it, its in portuguese language, yeah i know... if i could i wouldve changed it but win7pro doesnt gimme that option, anyways back to the topic:
A first chance exception of type 'System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException' occurred in mscorlib.dll
This is the code i came up with:
If My.Computer.FileSystem.DirectoryExists(My.Computer.FileSystem.SpecialDirectories.MyDocuments & "/IOrganizeSettings" & "/CalendarConfig/") = False Then
My.Computer.FileSystem.CreateDirectory(My.Computer.FileSystem.SpecialDirectories.MyDocuments & "/IOrganizeSettings" & "/CalendarConfig/")
End If

EDIT: I'm starting a bounty on this question. For the moment, I've moved on and am developing my application using VS2010 Pro Beta, but I'd really like it to be able to be built with express edition, since we are generally not a .net shop and even if one or two developers have VS PRO it will not be available to our entire team.
To be the accepted answer and claim the bounty, you must provide sample code and instructions that will allow a Windows Service to be installed and uninstalled using vb 2008 express edition. You don't necessarily need to start with my code (but the essentials of it are included below).

I have just purchased VS2008 SE to run on my PC with VS2005 SE. I have been developing a WM6 application using the VS2008 PE trial, the trial period has now ended, hence the purchase of VS2008 SE (full not upgrade). As a private user for hobby purposes I can not afford VS2008 PE. I am astonished to learn that in actual fact VS2008 SE is a step back from VS2005 SE in that the WM6 SDK's on not supported. I have read the below thread: url...I am also annoyed that on the WM6 SDK refresh download page it states clearly that VS2005 SE or higher must be used - hence the purchase of VS 2008 SE.As I have installed on my PC a full version of VS2005 SE and VS2008 SE, is there a way to develop WM6 devices with the tools I have or is VS2008 PE the only solution.

I have a form with the WMPLIB embedded in the form. I cycle through music files ripped with WMP and some of them I get a media error, but it doesn't indicate what the error is. How do I find out what is wrong with the rip? I am using VB.NET. I use: [code] to load the file. Most of the files play fine, but some do not. I have set an error trap sub but how do I tell what is wrong with the file?

I have embedded the WMP control in my Visual Studio 2010 app which works on windows 7 (Framework 4.0), but installing the app on winXP, I get the following error:
System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'Interop.WMPLib, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

WRN: Assembly binding logging is turned OFF.To enable assembly bind failure logging, set the registry value [HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftFusion!EnableLog] (DWORD) to 1.
Note: There is some performance penalty associated with assembly bind failure logging.To turn this feature off, remove the registry value [HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftFusion!EnableLog].
I guess this is a reference issue, but I have added references to WMP libraries (axinterop.wmplib.dll and interop.wmplib.dll). The WMP works on the XP machine, but not when called from my application.I have searched the web now for 5 days and changed references, and reinstalled the media player on the XP machine, but nothing works.

I have a Windows 2003 server that we regularly RDP in to monitor some programs that we set up to run on the machine automatically.However, the server will automatically log me out after a few minutes of inactivity. Unfortunately the server admin (who has the admin rights to the server, which I don't) is reluctant to remove such restrictions "for security reasons".
Therefore, instead of me trying to fill up 10000 piece of paper getting a security exemption, I am just wondering if there is any tiny program that I can run on the server (either a script or some VB.NET code) that will trick the server into thinking I am constantly typing something even though I am not (For example, as if I am moving my mouse cursor once every 30 seconds or type any letter then erase it in notepad)?Note that since I do not have admin rights, any installation is certainly out of question, and the script, if any, can not require admin rights to run properly.

I have a Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition application that operates as a front end for iSeries V6r1. The application was developed on a windows 7 machine. Users load the application from a shared folder on a server. Currently, there are 2 Vista, 3 windows 7 and 4 XP users. All had no problem in loading application, all users except 3 of 4 XP users can run the application with no problems. However, 3 of the XP users receive the following error message when they perform any action that tries to connect to the iSeries:
System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection.
All 4 XP users are on same service pack

It has been a long time since I have programmed. What I need to find out is how to make my VB 2008 Express Edition program read a text document so that I can alter the text. What I have been doing instead is cutting-and-pasting the whole text into a TextBox by hand and then writing:
t = TextBox1.text
and using mid() to find parts of variable t.I am not sure that this will work though because some of the files are very big (as much as 583 Kb. (I am unsure how much data can be put into a single variable.
I have a vague memory that when I was using VB5 on a similar project years ago, I had to type maybe four lines of code at the beginning that were all lines I just copied from somewhere and that were lines I did not understand.

I am having problems writing correct data to a file. I create a string of characters (approx 5000 bytes long). The string is a mixture of text characters and numbers converted to bytes. I then:
a) write the string to a readable text file
b) display the string contents to the console
c) write the string to a file - BDF.bin (I tried both IO.BinaryWriter and IO.StreamWriter but get the same error)
The byte pattern for the text readable file and the data displayed on the console match and for the most part , data bytes in the StreamWriter file are correct (first 4096 bytes are OK) but there are some extra bytes and some wrong bytes.Here is a comparison of byte patterns (hex values character written to the file) starting at byte 4096
Console: 45 44 52 31 00 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 90 01 00 00
Binary File: 45 44 52 31 00 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 C2 90 01 00
The byte patterns match, however in the binary file, there is an extra byte (C2).To display the console data, I read one character at a time from the string and display it using hex(asc(mid(string,i,1)))I view the binary data in the BDF.bin file using a hex editor program. I even tried 2 other hex editors and all showed the same byte info.
