Migrating .NET Code To A Web-based App?

Oct 29, 2009

I come to programming from a school of functionality rather than theory- writing programs to meet a goal or solve a problem.I haven't had any education in computer science so many aspects of the Visual Studio world are alien to me.Just for fun I wrote a very small program to help with a computer game.It's called the All Lucky Sevens calculator for Final Fantasy 7.If you haven't played the game it won't make much sense to you so I'll eschew the logic of why I wrote it, focusing on what it does.

Basically it performs a series of percentage calculations on a number input by the user, trying to convert the original number into one that ends in 77. So 6104 reduced by 7% is 5677 The question is, how difficult is it to convert VB.NET code to work as a web-based app. I thought .NET was designed to make it easier to do this? Is it relatively simple to convert VB.NET code into something that can be run from a website? If not, the solution is to rewrite it in a different language like Java or Flash.The actual programming of it would not be difficult, but I do not speak those languages and it would require rewriting all the nested loops and ifs.Forcing VB to round down a decimal to an integer was difficult enough, I daren't think how hard it is in a language I've never used before.

Start Migrating VBA Code To .NET?

May 17, 2010

First off I am so VB.NET green it's pitiful. I am a AutoCAD Manager and I need to start migrating my VBA code to VB.NET. That being said, I am very familar with VBA,and some asp.net, and trying to use that knowledge to self-train in .net. The trouble I'm having is communicating between the various objects in .net. That being said, here is the first of many issues.

Currently, I am working on a file processing program that checks a user selected folder for .dwg files. I'm attempting to use FolderBrowserDialog activated using a "Browse" button , and can't seem to, first get the dialog to show a folder structure from the FolderBrowserDialog object and second, get the initial dialog code to take the "SelectedPath" method. Error "SelectedPath is not a member of "folderbrowser"

I can post code, but I'm not sure what snippet would be the most informative of my problem.

Press A Key Based On Code Value

Jan 23, 2010

Example: When you press "a" you want your program to automatically press again the same char you pressed. You know the e.KeyCode which is 65 for "a" and the command which is SendKeys.[code..]

Simple enough and it works for every character. But if you try it lets say with the Caps Lock button then the value of key is "CAPITAL"which means that the command will execute as follows:
[code..]

Which will obviously send the text "CAPITAL" not the key "Caps Lock".The same thing happens with % (Alt) and Is there another way to press a key without using the SendKeys function?

Don't stay on this:
When you press "a" you want your program to automatically press again the same char you pressed.
Cause that is not what i want to do.

Dynamically Place A User Control Based On Code Behind?

Nov 26, 2011

I have a user control which is essentially a main menu I can place it into my MasterPage hard-coded, but I don't want that, I want to be able to dynamically place it with the code behind of the MasterPage.

<controls:mainMenu ID='MainMenu1' runat='server' />

So what I am looking to do is something like

if **condition is true ** _ response.write('<controls:mainMenu ID='MainMenu1' runat='server' />')

Of course, I know that won't work, but how would I place the control based on a condition in code behind on the master page?

Migrating From C# To VB?

May 1, 2012

I've done a fair bit with the other languages in Visual Studio, and have some C# code I wrote which I am trying to port to Visual Basic.

I will show it here:

public sealed partial class Dice
{
private sealed partial class MT

[Code].....

My question is one of a fairly simple nature, how do you make a thread safe singleton constructor with Visual Basic?

I tried a similar pattern to the one above, only to find that I had a lot of difficulty declaring the static variable instance as a null, this in turn would ruin my public Instance property, as I would have no way of telling if the class had been instantiated or not...

Anyhow, even a simple explanation as to the correct way of doing this would be nice, I'm sure I can fill in a lot of the grey areas, I just need more information than what I'm finding in MSDN, it seems Singletons are only really described in detail for the other languages...

Conditional Code To Open Different Forms Based On Dropped Text?

Apr 12, 2011

I am new to VB and I have two detail listviews with one full of items that can be droppedinto the other. I have three groups in Listview1 and I would like different forms to open up based on the group each dropped item belongs to. I was able to open Form2 on drop by adding Form2.Show() at the end of the ListView_DragDrop handler sub, but this opens forevery item and I want different forms to open depending on the ListViewGroup the item belongs to.I set the items and groups in the property windows and not in code; I do not know if this makes a difference. So here is the code I have on Form 1 where the listviews are:Public Class Form1

Private Sub ListView_ItemDrag(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As _
System.Windows.Forms.ItemDragEventArgs) Handles ListView1.ItemDrag, _
ListView2.ItemDrag

Migrating .exe To Another System?

Sep 2, 2009

I have made a windows application (running parfectly on my system). Now i want to run it on another computer.

Here's what i tried: I noticed that an exe file of the application is created inside the Debug folder after the application is deployed. So i thought that copying and pasting the .exe on any other system should work fine but trying to run the exe on that system gave an error and it would not run.

P.S. This application did not have a database. Also, i have made another application which interacts with an access database. How will i be able to run that on another system?

Migrating From WinForms To WPF

Jun 25, 2010

We're building an application using VB.net and WPF. Obviously we've found that there are huge differences between the syntax in the two, and we have a few problems trying to do things in Form apps in WPF.If possible, could you pass us some resources on things like switching between WPF windows, we'd use Show() and Close() in WinForms, and referencing variables from other forms, i.e. otherForm.StrVariable references StrVariable from otherForm.

Creation Of Program To Create Security Code Based On Current Date?

Apr 3, 2012

I need some help in the creation of a program to generate a security code based on the current date. I need to create something that first multiplies the MMDDYY (ie X=MM * DD * YY) then also adds the MMDDYY then finds the remainder and then multiplies but a specified number. I would like to create a small program that sits in the system tray with this code displayed. The code will always need to be 6 characters, so I might need to pad it with zeros. It has been years since I took basic VB, and I am really rusty.

C# - Migrating .Net Remoting From Framework 2 To 4?

Feb 29, 2012

I currently had a .Net Remoting Application running on Framework 2 under IIS. I have to upgrade it to Framework 4 in order to use some new components. I have been able to set everything up and running smootly on Framework 2, but as soon as I change to Framework 4, I get the following exception when I try to call one of the function of my remote object.

The input stream is not a valid binary format. The starting contents (in bytes) are: 53-79-73-74-65-6D-2E-52-75-6E-74-69-6D-65-2E-52-65

This bug is not the real bug, it is caused by the fact that the remote object is throwing an exception, and IIS wrap the exception in XML, which throws the BinaryFormatter off.See this for more info on the bug.

This is very unfortunate because I cannot see what is causing the exception, and having never used any Remoting before, I do not have much ideas as to where to start debugging. It seems the Exception is thrown before even stepping in the code because I do a fair amount of logging and none of it seems to be triggering.Basically, I'm looking for some clues or pointer from people that encountered similar problems:

What could be causing the exception when no code has changed besides Compiling from .Net 2 to .Net 4?How can I get the full Exception message that is returned?
