View 1 RepliesI'm searching a free reporting tool for vb.net express. I only want pdf export and the basic functionality of a reporting tool (grouping, functions, lines, etc). I use postgresql server.What free tools are there out?
View 10 RepliesAnyone know of any free reporting tools - I am using vb.net express, which doesn't have any report features with it.
View 2 RepliesI've got .net v4 installed, and the SDK, and I've managed a Hello World msgbox winform .exe app using the free IDE "SharpDevelop", but that doesn't seem to have an Immediate Window which I'm a bit lost without. I also tried MonoDevelop but I couldn't get the Immediate Window there to work, and worse than that, I couldn't even find a way to design forms and plonk down some controls! I think their main interest is C# rather than VB? So it looks like I'm going to have to try the crippled Express Edition from MS - which feels annoyingly limiting from what I've seen - but I'm struggling to understand exactly what missing features would halt me in my tracks.Basically (pun intended, sorry) I'm hoping to see if I can upgrade myself to vb.net from some VB6 dabbling a few years ago. From what I've read it seems mostly quite manageable, I can understand the "everything's an object" concept, etc.
But, would I be able to produce useful software, deployable around the office with proper msi installer packages? If not, then I just won't have the motivation to progress beyond a few little experiments. The question is - can I actually do anything worthwhile without risking the waste of a considerable sum of money if I were to shell out for an uncrippled version?

View 8 RepliesSince VB 2005 express does not really install properly in windows 7, here is how to get it to install and make it work right. It's very simple.
1. Right click on the VB 2005 express installer file and click "Properties" in the menu.
2. Now click the "Compatibility" tab.
3. Check the box that says, "Run this program in compatibility mode for:"
4. Click the drop down menu and select "Windows Vista Service Pack 2. (I haven't tried service pack one.)
5. Now check the box that says "Run this program as an administrator" and click "Apply," then "OK"
6. Run the installer.
Wait until VB 2005 express has installed to do these next steps.
7. Make a desktop icon for VB 2005 Express
8. Right click on the VB 2005 express icon and click "Properties" in the menu.
9. Now click the "Compatibility" tab.
10. Check the box that says, "Run this program in compatibility mode for:"
11. Click the drop down menu and select "Windows Vista Service Pack 2. (I haven't tried service pack one.)
12. Now check the box that says "Run this program as an administrator" and click "Apply," then "OK"
VB 2005 Express should now run on you Windows 7 machine! (Yipee) Notice that it is necessary to repeat the same process for the installer file as well as the actual VB program becuase they are two different files and need to run in compatibility mode.

I am trying to make a VB User Interface with Visual Basic Express Edition 2005 where clients can do the following calculation: Stranding x Bare Copper CMA = Total CMA
I have created an access 2007 database called Total_CMA, this database has 2 columns, one with the SIZE and the other AREA, but in this database the Size = Area ( was not sure how to set that up properly ) so I left it at 2 columns and then went to VB and set up with a listbox for the Size and have bound the database to this listbox, and when I debug it, the numbers for Size show up in the listbox, so thats looking good so far, since the size = area when I bound it it asked to get and I picked Size then it asked value equals so I picked Area and hope that was the proper thing to do.
I added a TEXTBOX named STRANDS for the customer to input the number of strands, then a button to click to calculate total CMA and another Textbox named TOTAL to display the results. All have labels next to them naming what they are.
My question is, how do I get what the customer selects in the listbox to multiply by the STRANDS textbox and output in the TOTAL textbox when clicked on the button to calculate total CMA. I also need to make sure whatever SIZE they picked in the listbox is going to take the AREA number ( not the SIZE number ) and multiply it by the STRANDS textbox.
