I installed VB 2010 Express on 2 different computers using the same activation key. An XP machine and a win 7 machine. Is this is allowed? There is no FAQ and since its free I figured this was OK. Is there a Microsoft Certified person here that has an answer for this 100%?

View 3 RepliesI hv installed VS2010 Ultimate on my Samsung notebook win 7 home premium 64 bit. But one thing was wrong, i couldn't get sql express installed, with some error that i forgot. I can't see SQL Express menu on my menu list though unable to launch it.
after searching the net, it says that i might need Windows Installer 5 (SDK) which is 2,5 GB to download. Is it true that I need that SDK to install sql express properly? or it is not possible to have sql express on home premium 64bit?
I'm sure there is an easy answer to this, and it may be "no," but is it possible to create an install file in VB Express 2010 and have that file deploy additional .exe files?
I developed a windows form program that calls fortan routines (in seperate .exe files) for different purposes. I would like to create an install file that deploys not only my VB program, but all of the supporting code.
Is this possible with VB Express 2010? I tried to search for threads about this, but didn't find any that explicitily answered this question.
(Currently using VB.NET 2010 Express) I'm trying to make a program, the main of which is file transfer. I'm trying to create a program that will keep files and folders synchronized across multiple client computers. I'm using a File system watcher to trigger events, and Using a simple System.Net.Sockets UDP client transfer (found via google) to transfer commands between it and itself on other computers.
Here's that code (this just sends from one textbox to another over the internet)
Imports System.Net.Sockets
Imports System.Net
Imports System.Text
Dim udpClient As New UdpClient(1024)
Dim RemoteIpEndPoint As New IPEndPoint(IPAddress.Any, 0)
[Code] .....
By this method, I can rename, move, or delete files. I want to implement file transfer, so that whenever a new file is created, or updated, my program will automatically transfer the file to the other computers and update them there.
I recently finshed a program and made a finshed copy of it when I tested it on my computer it installed correctly but when I tryed to use it on a nother computer I got a error saying application download did not succeed.Check your network connection, or contact your administor or network service provider.[code]...

View 2 RepliesI descovered that an application within my company at the minute reads a 'license.dat' file which must be generated off-site. If the file is missing or is edited in a text editor (which 90% of the content is not english, more gobuldy gook). then the application shows an error and then closes. I would like to know if that can be done for my application, so i can generate a licence.dat file and then install in on the clients computers.

I have the same net framework 3.5 sp1 on all computers.What am I missing?I am thinking now it is code, but why does it will work on one and not the other.Do I need to install VB 2008 express on every computer that will be running this app just to insure that the computers are the same?
Does the Express Version support adding multiple soultions (.sln) to a project or is this only available with the Professional version.I see that I can add a DLL as a reference that was built in 2010, but it is not letting me step into it with the debugger (or recompile changes to its source).
View 10 RepliesI have made setup of my application consisting of VB.net Windows Application and SQL Server Express 2005 SP4. I have attached SQLEXPR.EXE with proper arguments into Custom Action with commit option.

View 5 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.

View 1 RepliesMaximized Window Size - For Multiple Users (Computers/Monitors)
View 1 RepliesSay you have a form that is designed to be maximized on startup. Now, on the programmer's computer (mine), it looks good. But going from user to user, the dimensions of monitors, as well as the resolution each user has on their computer/monitor will vary.Here is the question: If you want to have an application designed to be in a maximized window, how do you ensure that it looks the same on each and every computer/monitor that will be using it. Controls, and everything else that would normally be on the form.
