Pixel Density Across Multiple Machines - Setting?
Apr 2, 2011I have been working on a suite of VB 2008 Express applications on my laptop and thought I would do some work on them using my main desktop rig. I have the VB 2008 Express IDE on both machines, identical MySQL database, Apache Server, etc etc. Everything works fine except that the forms look a little different on my desktop.
Different meaning that the controls don't quite line up correctly as far as spacing, and I have two bitmap graphics on the forms (logos) that appear the same size, but the picture box is smaller, on my desktop than they do on my laptop, so they are cut off.
Additionally, when I add my text box controls and set their location, they are WAY off on my desktop but line up correctly on my laptop.
Both my laptop and my desktop use Windows XP Pro (laptop is the Media Edition however) and I use the same resolution screens (1680x1050).
So I was wondering if it might be a DPI Pixel Density difference, and how I might go about checking that and adjusting it.
Here are two images showing the subtle differences between machines. Of course, it would be ideal if I could get my forms to look identical across both machines.

Jan 23, 2011I have added COM control AxWindowsMediaPlayer to form in vb.net.and just have following code
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
WMPlayerVideo.URL = "abase.mp4"
End Sub
End Class
abase.mp4 file is kept in directory where exe is there. Every thing runs fine on dev m/c but on client machine application is not lauached.When Interop.WMPLib.dll and Interop.WMPLib.dll are copied to the exe file directory then application is lauched at least but file is not played automatically and even on pressing play button its not played.Is some dll registration required to make it work? or some references needed in project?or some changes on user machine?
Set Environment Variable On Several Remote Machines From One Application?
Sep 22, 2010I think my title covers the high level, but for indepth; i need to be able to connect to a machine through and ip and set a enviroment variable, i have over 60 machines in different states all on one network that i need to do this for as well as someother things for the machine. currently this is being done through a PCEXEC command in a batch file they want more control on how this operates. I just really have no idea where to even start looking for the enviroment variable change(setting one on a machine that the app is running is simple we all know that. but on a external machine im lost) on a remote machine.
View 1 RepliesDeploying Winforms Application To Client Machines Failing On Start
May 5, 2012This is a VB .NET 4.0 WinForms application. There is a mysql data-source involved with this project. The target CPU is set to any. Problem: When running this application on any computer that has VS 2010 installed along with the mysql connector it runs flawlessly. When installing on a virgin system(ie. No developer environment installed) but that machine does have .net framework 4.0 installed and a mysql server without the connector installed the application falls immediately. So to fix the issue I install the mysql connector MSI.
This immediately fixes the issue on the client system and it runs. The problems is that as you can see below from my Installer setup that the 2 needed DLL files for MYSQL are actually included in the installation package so should not need to be installed separately. So Why is it that using that installer from the images do I need to install the mysql connector? Any Ideas?
Below is a screen shot of the References the program uses and from what I believe I do not need to deploy any of those DLL files with my application other than the 2 MYSQL DLL files. So why is this failing? Below are images showing the project references as well as the Installer Files that are being installed in the application folder. As shown in the image the 2 mysql dll files are to be put in the application folder. There is also a screen shot showing each dll's properties for in application folder.
Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition Application Does Not Work On Windows XP Machines
Jun 23, 2010I 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

View 2 RepliesMaking An Application That Uses Multiple WebBrowser Controls And Multiple Proxies?
Dec 17, 2009I am making an application that uses multiple WebBrowser controls, and multiple proxies.The code for changing the proxy settings are as such:
#Region "Proxy"
Public Structure Struct_INTERNET_PROXY_INFO
Public dwAccessType As Integer
Public proxy As IntPtr

Note: getRandomProxy gets a random proxy from a list.Problem is that whenever RefreshIESettings(getRandomProxy()) is applied, the proxy will be applied to all of the WebBrowsers, while i would need to have a unique proxy for each WebBrowser. Not having this would just error out the page in the other browsers and so on.
.net - Store Application And User Settings Of An Application Running With Multiple Instances?
Jul 12, 2011Which is the best way to store application and user settings of an application running with multiple instances?My problem is that using the vb's "Application Settings" one instance would overwrite the other one.I want to identify each instance with a number passed via command line argument. I could use this number to identify the appropriate settings of the running instance, but I see in a local INI o XML file a better way to handle that.
View 1 RepliesApp Not Working On SOME XP Machines
Aug 19, 2011I have developed an application is VS2010 ( VB app using .NET4 ) ... the application runs fine under Windows 7 and on (3) XP machines we have here. Had one user looking for support on an XP machine ... when he started the app nothing happened. No errors or anything, just nothing happened. Had him install the latest .NET4 framework and everything was fine.
Just had another support issue ... user with the same complaint ... had him install latest .NET4 ... but this time did not fix the issue ... still nothing happens when he clicks to start the app ... no errors ... just nothing happens.
I can't check this because it runs on all our XP machines .... Is the only criteria that .NET4 be installed? I created an install that includes only the EXE from the BINRELEASE folder ... nothing else. Do I need anything else. Strange that it works on all our XP machines.
Compile - Cannot Run .exe On Some Machines
Jun 21, 2010I have a small form program that is basically an interface for installing different software packages so that we can distribute a CD with our products that our customers can just pop in the drive, autorun, and click the button to install what they need. The problem that I am running into is unlike when I had built this same program in VB6, the program rewritten in VB.net will not run on some machines, and shows me an error: .net Framework initialization error. required version of .net framework v2.0.50727.
I realize that it is asking for that version of .net framework in order to run, but what I would really like to know is if there is a way to make my exe non-dependant on this so that it will run on any machine. Requiring my customers to install .net framework in order to access an interface designed just to idiotproof the installation of some setup files and provide easy access to a few pdf's really would just defeat the purpose.
How To Switch Machines
May 28, 2012I have two machines, on the first of which I have developed my application to a point of satisfactory stability. Now I want to move everything to my second machine.Both computers have the same level of XP and NET Framework code, and both have Visual Studio 2010 at the same level.I copied my application's project folder onto the second machine, but the second machine's VS 10 can't load the project because it can't find a couple of Interop files (e.g., AxMSComCtl2). All of files are present in the project folder and also in its.bin subfolder. The only observable difference between the two machines is the presence, on the first machine, of some Assemblies stored under my user name there. Copying the Assemblies to the second machine didn't help (I hadn't thought it would).Is my application permanently "imprinted" on my first computer, or is there a simple way of resusitating its clone?

Oct 13, 2008i have created a tool written in C# that would parse string (from 3 files) using regular expressions then throw all the matches in a grid. It works fine on my machine.. It returns matches from those 3 input files.. The problem is when i use that tool (.exe) in other machines..there are no errors. The program works fine for the first 2 files.. but doesn't return matches on the 3rd file.I tried copying the codes in one of the machines just to trace the problem, but when i run the program, it suddenly worked fine.. from then, the program is working fine on that machine.

App Runs Slow On Other Machines?
May 24, 2009Basically i have designed an app that runs smoothly on my desktop PC (3GHz processor, 2GB RAM, Windows XP Media Centre (SP3)).
When i put the app on my laptop(1.4GHz processor, 448MB RAM, Windows XP Home Edition (SP2)) it runs really slow and is unusable.
I have tried deploying the app and also just copy the whole folder to my laptop and run the apps *.exe from the bin/debug folder, but it has the same results.
I have tested it on higher spec machines with 2GB RAM and they also replicate the slowness, so i'm at a loss as to why it behaves 100% on my desktop PC, where i have Visual Studio installed but not on any other machine.
My question is if little differences like operating system, RAM, service packs, VS installation, etc, make apps run differently on different machines.
Cannot Execute Exe On Machines Other Than The Developer?
Jul 19, 2011I updated a VB.NET application from Visual Studio 2008 to Visual Studio 2010 and made a few changes to it. Now it works fine on my development workstation but when the user tries to run it, it fails. The error detail is below. I've searched for System.InvalidOperationException and found several suggestions but none of them have helped. There isn't any static initialization code in the application. I changed the compilation to x86 instead of AnyCpu. None of these has helped. The project is compiled for .NET 3.5 and that hasn't changed. Both environments are Windows 7 64-bit.
Does anyone have a suggestion as to how I might determine what is causing this?

Global Variable Across All Machines?
May 31, 2009I'm focusing on Networking programming and I had found something that was very interesting to me in Remoting, which is the ability to have some how a "shared global variable accross applications" ... Here's a quick example of what I'm saying (which is stripped and modified from one found example on internet):
In the Remoting class:
Code:Namespace remoteclass Public Class xx Inherits MarshalByRefObject
Public Shared_Var As String 'This is our share variable
End ClassEnd Namespace
[Code]....
I found that I can eaisly use this red-marked variable (Shared_Var) acrross all application clients without any extra line of code to update its value ... without using even what is called "singlecall" and "sigletron".
But I have concerns:
1) This is only applicable for simple types of variables (e.g. string and integer) but an array or DataTable for example are not updated! and I don't know why!!
2) Would that load the communication network (I mean the content of these shared variables (few KBs to 1MB) will always be communicated across machines all the time without any management) ... Actually I don't how this works from inside, Does it update on change or cyclic ...
3) And finally, can I found something like this in WCF?

View 3 RepliesC# - Restrict Same User To Login From Different Machines
Jun 8, 2012I have a ASP.Net Web application hosted on a server. I want to restrict same user to login on different machines over the network connection but with certain conditions to be satisfied. So I thought of adding three new columns to the User table so that we can track if same user is logged in on same or different machines.
Those columns are like :
IsLoggedIn : To check if the particular user is already logged in or not.
SessionID : To check if the same user instance is opened.
IPAddress : To check if the same user is on same or different PCs.
This should satisfy some of the below conditions, but it fails to satisfy some of them. Conditions are as follows :
Both computers are on the same LAN.
Each computer is accessing the application over the internet from different locations.
Each computer is accessing the application over the internet from the same location.
Some of the application hosted which means that IP address alone is not sufficient to distinguish different computers.
Some users just close the browser without logging out. So sessions may not be ended at this situation.
How to accomplish all these conditions to satisfy with my application ?
Mainly 4th and the 5th .
