What OS's will run projects compiled with VB Express 2008 running under Vista?
View 4 RepliesSimple question that does not seem to be covered: If I use a lot of Debug.WriteLine statements in my code, will they be completely absent in my production version?
I mean: Is the compiler smart enough to not emit any code for those calls? Or would I have to surround them by #if DEBUG..#end if directives?
I created in application in visual basic 2008 that uses My.Computer.Keyboard.Sendkeys to write strings to notepad. In windows XP 32 bit this goes very very quickly. In Vista 64 SP1 running as an Administrator, the same process is noticeably slower. I am using the code below:

Any tips on what is making the project so slow. I have about 5 report server projects, and about 3 other projects. One for My Generation and another Base Class project with one form. My machine is a 2.0 Intel with 1 gig of ram.
Some times hitting enter causes a huge delay or selecting a chunk of code (10 - 20 lines) and doing a ctrl-c causes a huge lag and then again when I do a paste. Trying to debug by step thru no longer lets me do edit and continue. I get the error "Cannot currently modify this text in the editor. It is read only"
Compiling a 6 meg project after simple changes takes a minute or two to come up.Is it a sourcesafe issue? References? Mcafee Anti virus?
I had done one application using api which send the message to given number. The working of software is very fine without any error working on windows XP SP2. I heard that vista already contain the .net frame work so didnt installed .net frame work in machine. I checked in vista it shows .net frame work is in machine. But when same code i tried to run on Vista it gives the error. Error is as follows

I am having extremely slow build times in a VB project, in VS 2008 Express. Sometimes it takes as long as 10 mins. It's so bad that I almost want to try re-installing VS 2008 Express. It seems to only occur in the one project.

I think it's because I have a background image. For example when I maximize the program it lags. I mean big software companies have programs that have more pixel images and are much more colorful then my program is but never lag why. AVG has nice look but the program never lag. But the code runs fine so that is a good thing. How can I stop the lag with background image?

View 11 RepliesI created an app that connects to an SqlCe database. it runs fine on my computer (xp) but when i try to run it on other computers, it crashes (on xp machine, the error is : OS error: the OS storage system is not responding, on windows 7 the error is: Access to the database file is not allowed).
On windows 7, if i right click the exe and run as administrator, it runs fine. But, i can't expect my users to do this every time they want to run my app.
I'm using Visual Basic Express 2008 to create an interface with a order database in MS Access 2007 (.accdb file). Everything is fully functional except updating the "Inventory" table is very slow. Updating around 2200 items takes almost 2 minutes and the window will appear as "not responding" for the duration if you click away and come back. Here is the process:1. Tab-delimited text file is picked by user, which includes all inventory items (not just new ones)2. Each line from text is parsed and read into variables (tempSKU, tempItemTitle, etc.)3. Old items are updated and new ones are added. -> This is the bottleneck
I used to have a series of IF statements to check which elements were changed and report them, but that was about 2x as slow. The new code is a little faster but doesn't provide the feedback I liked (update part is commented around):
Private Sub btnImportInv_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) andles btnImportInv.Click

I made a copy of a VB application project, to make a copy of it for testing.
But when I debug the test copy while the orginal is still running (debugging from Visual Studio), focus changes to the original's main form, and the test copy does not run.
If I try to single step the test copy, same thing, focus changes to original, and test copy does not even step.

Attach program with VB6 and VB2008.

I have several VB.NET Windows Form applications connecting tp several Network databases. When I build, update and test my apps, I want them to connect to a testing database as opposed to connecting to the production databases when the app is released.Right now, I change a setting in my coding before releasing the app, but I would like this to be automatic, to prevent any testing data in the Production database and vice versa.I found this piece of coding on the web, but it doesn't seem to ever be in DEBUG mode and by DEBUG mode I mean when I click the "Start Debugging" button or the F5 key.

View 3 RepliesI have a program for playing MP3 files using Media Player. The program developed originally under Vista using VBExpress 2010 works fine.
But when I run it under Win7 parts of the program don't work. In both cases the audio is played OK but under Win7 the 'playstatechange' events don't seem to happen!?!
I have put a breakpoint in event and under Vista the events happen...under Win7 the breakpoint is never reached. In both cases I am using VB Express 2010 and running under the debugger. I have seen this problem reported before in the forums but no answer was apparent.
VB 2008 - I would like to retrieve the Vista Version my app is running under. I understand the System.Environment.OSVersion.Version.Major/Minor/Build but I have a number of Vista Systems, some x86 and some x64. A mixture of Home/Business/Ultimate. Is there a way to recover more detailed info such as "Vista Ultimate x64 SP1" or do I need to poke around in the Registry?

I've been having a bit of a problem using the while function.
Here is my code (Simplified):
Dim RandomNumber3 As Random
Dim RandomOutput3 As Integer
[CODE]..............
When running the debug, the program crashes, and when I step into the program, I find that this While statement becomes an infinite loop. This is a program that uses random number generators to assign a value to something, and this while statement is necessary so that there is never two of the same values showing (RandomOutput, RandomOutput2 & RandomOutput) Have to be different to one another.
for some reason this works perfectly, when i do it in debug mode it adds the tasks to stagingtable, and then transfers none duplicates to the regular table. However, when i upload it to the server it does not work.

I had the error on my computer running Windows XP. I am use to that, so I went in the FrameWork .NET 2.0 and set the security to FullTrust and the error disapeared. Now I have the same error on my computer that is running Windows Vista and when I go do the same security changes to FullTrust, it does not work. I still have the error showing.Is there some other configuration to do on a Vista machine to be able to run a remote VB.NET application ?
