MSDN: "If the resource value is zero or greater, the number becomes the index of the string in the binary file. If the number is negative, it becomes a resource ID."How can I find out either of these numbers for my resources that only have names in VB? I also need the ID/index for the exe's icon.
I have a resource file that I include in my shared code library that has all of my re-usable classes in it (all the resources go into their own namespace). Now, what is the best practice regarding resources... should I include them in the same DLL, or should I have a seperate resource DLL and/or are there any benefits from seperating them out into their own file.

View 9 RepliesI recently picked up the VS.net 2008 Trial, looking to possibly buy it. I added a splash form, and not even the default code works. First, I got the error "'My' is not defined". I went under my project, clicked the resources tab, and it asked me to create a resources file. So I did. Now, 'My' is defined, however 'My.Application' does not work. I'm assuming I simply have to add Application as a resource, just as I did with My.Resource. I'm not sure how to do this, and I apologize if this has been asked before. I did do a search but it yielded no results. 'My' was a bit too vague and returned no results, 'not defined' was a bit too vague and returned a bunch of results

View 5 RepliesBob Tabor posted a series called "Visual Basic Fundamentals: Development for Absolute Beginners." In his series, he explains many key foundations of programming to beginner programmers. I happened to find some of his videos helpful which is why I post this.
The series can be found on Channel 9, which is under the operation of Microsoft.[URL]..I haven't watched all of his videos at this point but it is definitely a great reference to brush up on old concepts or to give to newer developers in need of learning material.
