I just recently installed VB 6.0, and I went to install MSDN Library (April 2000 Release of the MSDN Library)afterward. I was missing CD 2, but installed the other 2 CDs. It appears CD2 is the primary one for VB. Do you know how I can get this specific CD --OR-- can I just download a newer version (i have been looking for both on MSDN with no luck)?

View 2 RepliesIs there a link to download the MSDN Express Library without using the [vb]setup downloader/installer? I'm using a dialup connection and I'd like to use a third porty download manager so that I can pause/shutdown/restart the download process a few times. It's 243MB, which would take about 10-12 hours on my connection. I can't tie up the phone line for this amount of time.Is there an external link to an .exe or .msi package somewhere?

View 6 RepliesThe regularity and frequency of that extolling is an indication of how many people, for whatever reason, don't use the documentation. Some say that I've forgotten what it's like to be a beginner, but I remember using the MSDN documentation as a beginner. I remember that I couldn't always find what I needed and I also remember that I didn't always understand what I found. More importantly, I remember that that didn't stop me using it first every time I had an issue and I also remember getting better at using it over time. So, I'm genuinely interested to know, if you don't use the MSDN documentation?

View 16 RepliesI'm using VS2008 with all updates current. When programming with VB, I set the MSDN Help language to Visual Basic, but I very frequently get results for C#. Why does that happen and is there a reliable way to prevent it? I know C# and can adapt the results to suit my needs, but I thought using the filters was supposed to restrict results. Apparently, it doesn't. I'm just curious; why does that happen?

there are tools (SandCastle?) that can generate an MSDN-like documentation (HTML files) from your source code by using the XML comments above members. I am looking to generate a similar documentation (bunch of HTML files that one can link through), except not from XML comments but completely manually.It is for a custom scripting language, I have to document the available functions, and it would be great if I could do that in this common documentation style. Since there are no XML comments to generate the documentation from (the documentation is for the scripting language itself, not for my source code of the scripting language?
What I'm looking for in detail is a way to generate these documentation files by simply supplying this information for each function:
- Namespace (just the name and maybe a description)
- Function name + description + return type
- List of arguments and their types
from this I would to generate a document where one can first view all the Namespaces, click one (they are supposed to be links) and view all the functions in that namespace. Then you can click on a function name and view its description and list of arguments for that function.In other words: just like these automatic tools do, except now I want to supply this information manually.
While writing this I thought of one way that I might be able to do it: just create namespaces and functions in actual VB code (corresponding to the scripting language functions) and generate the documentation from that, but
1) That seems a little contrived especially if a better tool is available,
2) I would be in trouble with the types of functions and arguments, since they would have to be .NET types and not the types that my scripting language supports.
This code, which I got from [url]).aspx has been kicking up an error message (and a warning) when I try to use it.
View 1 RepliesThe MSDN page for this method says this: ArgumentOutOfRangeException. index is less than zero.-or-index is equal to or greater than Count. That doesn't make any sense, surely it should be "index is equal to or greater than (Count - 1)" Since index is zero based. I need to know since I'm Overriding the RemoveItem method for a Class that Inherits Collection(Of T).
View 6 RepliesWith all new technologies like Async/Await I spent hours rewriting sample code from the published C# MSDN Articles to VB.NET.Now that Roslyn is available, why do the authors not inlude the VB.NET code. After all, it can be converted automatically. Why does MSFT not make this a requirement fo all published MSDN articles.This would save us VB.NETs lots of precious time.
View 6 RepliesRecently I had to reinstall my system, but now I have a new problem. VS2005 installed ok, and the MSDN documentation appeared to as well (in fact, I have 1.65 Gb of help files in my c:Program FilesMSDN folder.But VS doesn't see the files. All I get is a minimal set of help files for explaining the Help system. Also, when I search for "Visual Studio 2005 Combined Help Collection Manager" , I only get a brief description of the Collection Manager and the message "Collections available for inclusion in VSCC:" at the bottom with no collections visible, and the "Update VSCC" button is grayed out. I have tried installing MSDN via the VS2005 install disk, and separately from the MSDN disk. The version of MSDN2005 is April 2005.
