Executable On Vista - Open The Executable It Goes To A "WindowsApplication1?
Jun 1, 2009
I have an executable that I was able to get working on all XP machines by registering all the .dll's associated with it.On Vista, however, I go through the exact same registration process but right when I open the executable it goes to a "WindowsApplication1 has stopped working" dialog. I registered the DLLs in the SysWOW64 folder. I also ran Dependency Walker which came up with IEFrame.dll as flagged, don't know if that is relevant though.
I have a program that outputs a file. I want the user to be able to just double-click the output file and launch the program, just like Word and Excel. In Word for instance, one doesn't necessarily have to open WORD then click on File--> Open and locate another Word doc. He can just go to the folder and open the Word doc. I want to implement the exact scenario in my program.
So far I have tried creating TextFile and added it to the Resources. On FormLoading, I simply I stream-read the Resouce file, but I can't write to the Resource on FormClosing, since the Resource is ReadOnly. Also, the Resource is built & compiled so I suppose you can't add anything to it at run time.How you lunch an output file without launching the Executable program that created it?
I wonder if you can open a file .exe inside the Form. And this .exe file does not exit the Form. E.g. create a process that clicking on the button will open the Windows calculator, but the calculator will is stuck in the Form.
I Actually want to provide a new service which requires creating executables on the fly from executables generated in vb.net. For example lets say I have a form with a textbox and in that textbox we pass an argument which is for example the serial of the product, then we have a button which once clicked will generate an executable on the fly which has also a textbox requiring that serial to run? That was only an example but the main thing is how to generate that exe on the fly.

I have written a very simple menu that I intend to burn to a cd. I want the menu to be able to run executable files from the cd. The problem is everyone's cd drive has a different letter, is there any way that the program can take it's own location and then find the executable by adding where it is on the disc to that? Or is there another way?
Now when I comment these, the application is executed flawlessly, but when included program requires Framework 2.0 SP2 upgrade, I searched MSDN for this but looks like this is available from Framework 1.1
I dont want my users to upgrage to SP2 for such minor things but cant also remove this from my code, Is there an alternate to achieve similar ServicePointManager settings without a Framework Upgrade?
I received the class below in C# and I've converted it to VB but I cant make an executable from it. I've tried. It will not take any kind of load routine.How do I execute it just for reads? [code]
I am making a program that will be run on a usb drive. The program needs to run exe that are on the drive but do to it being a usb drive from computer to computer the drive letter can change. How would I be able to run the exe,
Example F:Portable-VirtualBoxPortable-VirtualBox.exe
So I would use Private Sub Button4_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal [Code] .....
No problem but when I put the usb into my other computer drive F is no longer drive f: but drive o:
I'm new to Visual Basic so please excuse my ignorance.I'm trying to get an executable to run from my VB script. Launch.exe runs if I browse to it and double click on it but, if I try to get it to run from the script, nothing happens?Here is my code. Note that the calc.exe does run from within the script. It's the Launch.exe that doesn't seem to do anything.
Firstly I'm not a programmer and do not pretend to be one. I just enjoy killing some spare time I've been usining Visual Basic (started with VS2005 and now onto VS2010) to develop a program. Up until now I've been happy to plod along running the progam from the development environment. However, I recently was asked by an colleague if they could have a copy of the program to use.Therefore I opted to create an executable file for him to use. The problem is that whislt the executable file runs fine on my machine (Win 7) where VS2010 is installed, it does not deploy correctly on his machine (XP pro). Following is the message that I get:See the end of this message for details on invoking just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.
I am totally a newbie to VB.net, now I am developping a Windows Service, which will start an *.exe when starting. How can I detect and re-start a process of this executable if it got killed by some other program?[cod]e...
I read a lot about changing the metadata of music or images, but what about normal executable? How do I edit the comment / title of them? I am using .NET 2
How to specify the patch for the database when making a vb.net program executable. The data base which is access is in the debug folder of the program.
My issue is when I read from an existing executable and convert it to string and back to executable windows says it is not a recognized 32 bit or 64 bit application? The code below is real code I have rewritten many times but to no avail. If I leave out the part where I convert the bytes to string and just copy the binary and create a new exe with the binary the program works. But the whole concept of string converting back to valid binary has me stumped? This is Visual Basic 2008 code:
Imports System.IO Imports System.Text Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load Dim tempPath = System.IO.Path.GetTempPath
I develop my application with VBNET2008 express and SQL server express 2005 but a little problem appears,my executable file is always READONLY.However,I make modifications in my code file,it stills unchangeable in the Executable File How can i do for this?
I'm trying to make a program that has command buttons, each running a different file. I have added some files so far, but I encountered a problem with a couple of them.
For example, I want to run Zuma's Revenge! right from the program, but it is not working. If I run the game from outside the program, it runs perfectly, but when I try running it from the program, it keeps saying "Zumas Revenge! - Adventure has stopped working."
What really confused me, is that the game is running normally if I run it from its folder or by using the shortcut, while from the program it isn't.I'm using Windows 7, with Visual Basic 2010 Express.
'Here's the code I'm using:
Private Sub Zumas_Revenge_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Zumas_Revenge.Click Process.Start(My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath & "umas Revenge! - AdventureumasRevengeAdventure.exe") End Sub
I'm wondering how do I get a version of an external executable when Launcher_Load, then after version is found I want it to Label1.Text = "[version]"I've tried searching through websites and from codes I found it didn't manage to do the job.
I am working on an executable to load set of data into databases.I will be running it as a windows service. I will be doing several different checks to see if the fields exists in the incoming files. When i do the checks using if statements.I would like to stop processing when a major error occurs or when any thing is interrupted Like say windows crashed. I would like to create an error file with the error message in it for that particular file. I would be monitoring error folder everyday to check if there are any errors.
How do i download a executable file like andrews done here with the image:[url] and would like to do get the response data and save that into a file instead of directly downloading it.Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth. - "Sherlock holmes" "speak softly and carry a big stick" - theodore roosevelt.
this i want to make my program to be executable..but i dont know how to make when i go to the file the makeproject1.exe is greyed out...what is the problem on this.
I have written a VB.Net program however there is a bug in one of the methods. I would like to fix the bug but I don't want to change the original executable. I know I can override a referenced assembley using a configuration file, but is there a similar method to override a method in my executable? I have reasons for not recompiling the original executable.
My project will be a collection of 3 projects that have similar GUI's and call on common assemblies. I want my project to contain 3 executable files when published that will load one of the designated smaller projects. Each of the smaller projects is designed to perform a different task, yet they are all similar in terms of looks and how the user interacts with the program. The best way to picture it would be MS Office. All the office programs (excel, word etc..) are part of the same package, and look similar but they perform different tasks. You can load any of these programs by opening the relevant .exe file, which is exactly what i want to do with my application.
This may be simple but I have brain freeze on just nowIf I cd into a directory from a command line and then run my executable VB.net application, is there a way to detect the directory that it was launched from. I currently have the executable in my PATH however ideally the person would cd into the directory that they were wanting the executable to act upon.
