When I create a new project in visual studio the New Project screen only has a Name box at the bottom, Location is missing. Is there a setting somewhere I need to set so this shows up?
View 5 RepliesI have a VB project using VS 2008 Pro that I have been working on my Win XP SP3 PC for a while now. I am now moving to a different PC with Win 7, 32 bits. I installed VS2008 and VS2010 (also Pro) on the new PC. The source is stored on a server on our network. When I tried to open the project with VS2008 on the new Win 7 I got the following message:The project location is not trusted:
\DevServerProjectsSysMon Running the application may result in security exceptions when it attempts to perform actions that require full trust.I then click Ok and another dialog comes up mentioning:This project includes a password-encrypted key used for signing. Enter the password for the key file to import the key file into the local cryto-store databse for use.The dialog lists a pfx file. Why is it requiring this?

I new to this Forum and relatively new to VB programming. I have read some really good posts here and thought I would ask about a perplexing problem I'm having. I createdindows Form application, built it and deployed it with no problems. However, when I added a small block of code, re-built the app and went to add the app to the Project Output Group in the file system editor the project was not in the Project drop down list. I closed the Setup project and deleted it from the project folder and checked my code and re-built the app and tried the Set Up project again with the same result
View 2 RepliesI've been trying to figure this out myself, but have just run into an issue I can't resolve with searching and examples. I'm trying to open an excel file to read from it, and I've figured out how to open a NEW excel file. I can't, however, seem to figure out how to open an excel file that already exists.
Here is what I have so far:
Dim objApp As Excel.Application
Dim objBook As Excel._Workbook
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

I have an MDI form with child forms which I open on it. The following statement in each form's load event places a child form in the location I want:
Me.Location = New Point(0, 136) I have several of these working. However, I have one form for which this statement does not work. It opens spread out over the entire parent form. Also, there is a border at the top with min, max, and close buttons even though the form has no border. This form has a picture box on it, if that means anything. why this child form does not open in the specified location?
I have a button on my form. When I click it, I want a form to be opened exactly on the location where the button is.

View 7 RepliesI have the following code used to enter the name of a text file and then display it in a richtextbox. This is working but I would like it so that I could take out the initial part of the filename detailing the location of the filename to simply set it to the project folder, is there any way of doing this using the App.path function?
My code is as follows:
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

I completed my final project for a .NET course two days ago and just noticed today that all my project files for every project I have on my computer (about a dozen or so) are missing all the project files except for what's in the bin folders. The folder structure it seems hasn't been affected.
View 8 RepliesI started trying to do this... [URL]...and quickly ran into a problem because I don't have a Windows Class Library project template. The option simply isn't there.[URL]So I start a Windows Application and try adding an Inherited User Control to the project, and I get this error.[URL] Building the current application does nothing for this. I tried browsing to system.windows.forms.dll and nothing happened.
View 1 RepliesI actually don't care so much about the name of the project as I do the .exe it builds. So I went into the project properties, goto the Application tab and change the Assembly name. But when I build, it loses the resources I've included. It builds w/o errors, but the icon's and pictures I've included are not in the program, and then the IDE gives me errors telling me it can't find those files.
I do have those resources in the program, their persistence is set to "Embedded in .resx" and their Build Action is set to "Resource". They work fine in the designer and show properly, and they build and show fine w/o changing the Assembly name.
Does anyone know why there would be no option to create a database project in VS 2008? In the New Project dialog, under Project Types I have no node for Database Projects. I've looked under Other Project Types as well. Every tutorial I read says this option should be in one of those two places, but not for me :-( I do have SQL 2005 installed on this machine.
View 2 RepliesI'm using visual studio express 2008, I wrote my code for a project and then when I tried to debug it I got a few errors but one main one that says this. Visual Studio cannot start debugging because the debug target "".exe is missing Please build the project and retry, or set the output path and assembly names appropriately to point at the correct location of the target assembly. Since this is my first time debugging a program with this particular instance of the program, I am in shock. Does anyone know how to fix this issue?

View 7 RepliesI am trying to get into some programming so have installed Visual Basic Express 2008 on an Vista Home Premium machine and can not get started at all.
When I open a new project (FILE>>New Project) I get some "visual Studio installed templates" Whenever I try any of them eg console application or Windows Forms application I get an error dialog box "Exception of type "System.Exception" was thrown.
I assume it is the templates that are not compatable or corrupted but I dont seem to be able to start without using the template.if it is the template or something else or how to start without using one of the installed templates?

View 8 RepliesIm making an application which is basically a lojack project. Im wanting to get some ideas for maybe other features or the best way to go about this for maximum tracking ability.Right now I have it working the way I think it should work and what it does is get your external IP, it then returns the City, State, Zip, Latitude and Longitude and sends all that info to you in an email. I have it check against a Database that houses computer registration, computer name, and then the status of the laptop which the customer calls in, if its stolen. Right now this is just a piece of software and Im currently working on something low level to do something before Windows loads up. Right now thats not something Im focused on hardcore, but Im working on it and itll get done.

I am having trouble opening my vb.net 2005 project from a backed up copy on a hard drive. The original files are on my old XP computer which I no longer have access to. I am trying to open the project in vb.net 2010 on Win7. I have converted the project to vb.net 2010 and when I open the file, nothing shows up, when I try to open them, it tells me the form isn't found in the project directory because it's been moved or deleted. I know that the software on the hard drive didn't back up .exe files, I'm not sure if it did back up other kinds of files. I don't want to restart the project because I've spent over a year on it and have written over 3000 lines of code on it.

Even the constants like vbTab and vbCrLf aren't appearing. Any suggestions on this? I'm running VS2008 Express Edition.
I downloaded a sample Project from the web. I opened the sample Project in Visual Basic 2005 Express Beta 2. After making a lot of modifications to the sample Project, I wanted to save my new project with its own different name, and in the usual directory where I have been creating other projects. I pressed Save All and accepted the default choice. Unfortunately, after pressing OK, I realized that I had saved over the original downloaded sample project, and had saved my modified project in a temp directory designed to receive downloads from the web.It's not a problem that I overwrote the original sample project, because I have already retrieved a new fresh copy from the web. Nor is it a problem that I gave it the name of the original project, because I was able to figure out how to rename the modified project by right-clicking in the Solution Explorer.
My problem is that I didn't want to save my modified project in the download temp directory. I want to save the Project (and all its associated sub-directories and files) in a directory of my own choosing (the same directory in which all my other created projects are saved). But now that I have chosen to save the project in an undesirable location, I want to re-save it somewhere else.For the life of me I can't see how to do this. The Save All command doesn't give me the choice of selecting the name or location for my project, it just updates my currently undesired location. The other two save-oriented commands under the File menu selection (Save and Save As) seem to be oriented to just saving the singular item (form code, dialog box code, module, etc) on which I am currently working. I can't find anything such as a "Save Project As" kind of command. And I don't want to try to cut and paste the whole directory, because I'm too novice to know whether I am moving everything properly with regards to what VB2005 needs to find and where it needs to find it.
I have Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate.
When I click on "New Project", under the "Name" textbox, I get no "browse" button to save the project somewhere else other than the default Document and Settings folder. But, my friend see that "browse" button under the "Name" textbox.
How can I save the project somewhere else other than the default Document and Settings folder ?
