Created two userforms in a single ms Word document, along with code, plus a macro on my laptom (Vista). Saved to flashdrive. At work I opened the word doc from flashdrive, but did not fine userforms, nor code & macros. There was a macro from another file I once worked on, but not the stuff from the file opened from the flashdrive.
View 3 RepliesHas anyone succeeded in creating a class library solution/project in VB.net VS2010 4.0 Net Framework for COM to run on WindowsXP Excel 2003. I created a dll which changed specific data in an excel worksheet. The dll worked just fine on the development computer but wont work on any other. I downloaded .NET 4 framework onto the target PCs and used RegAsm.exe to register both the .dll and .tlb files in the registry. That worked OK and the dll is visible as a reference in excel and can be ticked. The error message I get is RunTime Error -2147024894(80070002): Automation Error The System cannot find the file specified.
I also tried creating a Setup and Deploy project in the original development solution but this created just a vbproj setup file which the target PC cannot read (no VS installed), I hoped the project would create an EXE file I could use. Does anyone know any links that describe how to do this type of stuff as most links I have tried are either for Windows Forms projects are are way above my knowledge. Maybe someone out there has already succeeded with this sort of activity?

if they choose to use a networked version of my software, I will need the main server doing the authenticating. This is a problem, because from what I understand, it is quite easy to clone MAC addresses. I have looked into using the CPU ID and the HDD ID, but those are not unique, well at least I don't think so. Reason why I say they are not unique is because someone has the exact same CPU ID as me, and the HDD ID changes from partition to partition (same drive). Maybe the HDD ID is a partition ID instead? Anyways, I was thinking maybe I could get the Physical serial number of both the HDD and CPU, but I have not been able to find anything yet.

I am currently using the following code to print a word document[code]...
However I have found it to be buggy with our shared printers, this bug only happens when printing using word. It works fine when doing print automation with PDFs(Adobe Reader) etc.
What I am looking for is some code in vb.net which will allow me print this documents and I have to be about to specify the printer it uses.
I am trying to check each letter of a word if that word doesn't contain (AEIOUY) then I have to append (-way) to the end of the word. Now I have this if statement and it doesn't work:
If OriginalWord.ToUpper Like "*[!AEIOUY]*" Then
Label1.Text = OriginalWord & "-way"
End If
I need to append a (-way) to the end of a word that doesn't have (AEIOUY)
I have an application that requires data be entered, and after entering, a button is clicked to process that data. Clicking the button works just as it should--the data is processed properly. In constructing a test module, I provide a set of data values, followed by:
btnWhatever.PerformClick()
Nothing happens. I have used this syntax for years, and it has always worked flawlessly. I have triple checked everything else and isolated the problem to the failure of the PerformClick(). The PerformClick() is in a test subroutine that does nothing but fill textboxes and labels with default data, then calls the PerformClick() on the button to begin processing. Again, the button works fine, the data is entered as it should be, but the PerformClick() does not fire the click event.

View 7 RepliesI 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.

View 6 RepliesI decided it was about time I learned about accessing Microsoft Office products via VB.NET. I started with Excel and it all worked fine, I could create a new Excel Application, open a workbook from file and read from the sheet then close it all down again no worries. However, when I turned to Word...things got strange. Using the code provided below, every time I run it an instance of Microsoft Word opens itself on the desktop (with no loaded content). I didn't have this problem when using Excel with similar code, so I have to ask..what gives? Is there a way I can stop MS word opening at all? At the moment it just flickers for a second (it opens when I open the document, then when I call the Quit method it shuts down a split second later)[code]...
View 3 RepliesI have a question regarding opening a file to view it in wordpad and i would like to know where to start.
I have looked through a few posts and the only "open" things i can find are to edit the contents of a file without viewing the contents.
How can i open a file in wordpad or What should i be looking for to find out about this myself?
what i am planning to do: Making a form wich contains a richtextbox, then using a string that includes the path of the file and the filename, example path: C:\lol.gfc if you would've check the string you will see that it is a non word document, i want to get the text wich is in this file in my richtextbox. i know that there are just normal characters and normal text in this document and i can open it with wordpad. this is how far i came...
FileOpen(1, pathstring, OpenMode.Random, OpenAccess.ReadWrite, _
OpenShare.Shared)
make my homework cause i didnt do anything myself yet, well i tryed but it never worked and i didnt came further than the ofileopen command.
I want to open a number of RTF documents in Word 2007, one at a time, in a VB .NET program. Here is a small representative sample of my code:
Imports Word = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word
Public Shared WordApp As Object = Nothing
Public Shared WordAppInit As Boolean = False
Public Shared Sub ExecWord()
If Not WordAppInit Then
On Error Resume Next
[Code] .....
Sometimes it hangs on one of the WordApp or WordDoc statements in TestSub1; sometimes it gets all the way through TestSub1 without problems but then hangs in TestSub2. Often it leaves an instance of WinWord running so that I have to kill it in Task Manager or reboot the system.
I've looked through some of the related topics to this newly created thread but none have answered my question. Refer to the following code below:
Imports Microsoft.Office.Interop
Public Class Form1
'declares the following Word and Excel variables as public
[code]....
oDoc = oWord.Documents.Open(My.Settings.DocPath & "Letter.doc")
HOWEVER, whenever the debugger hits this line, it simply quits. No the application doesnt quit, no it does not hit the finally, end try or End Sub...it simply quits the sub. Actually, I think it causes the app to freeze but hard to tell because it happens in a dialogue form and this causes the dialogue form to bypass its close statement!
