How can I retrieve the Major and Minor version of the Application ? I wouldn't ask , but every time I try to use the My object to retrieve those properties , I only receive 1 and 0 , though I manually set them to 3 and 8 (from the project properties)
View 7 RepliesI am having troubles on what each of these mean.Mayjor, Minor, Build and Revison mean.I found a link to a topic like this, but I totally did not understand it.how to I apply the version details? I went to the properties of my progect and when to the publish tab, and set it in there, but when I right click on my application, it still always says, 1.0.0.0.How do I make it so it will say the version that I have it set in the publish tab?I am not publishing them to the internet,I don't have and FTP or what ever you need, plus I don't think there is a point to publish my programs, they are low level compared to everyone else who programs.
One more thing.If I want to make it so the application is done for that version, and is ready to be used on other computers, should I just use the app that is in the debug folder, or should I build it, then use the one that would be in the release folder, or is there something better that I should do?
VB 2008 - I would like to retrieve the Vista Version my app is running under. I understand the System.Environment.OSVersion.Version.Major/Minor/Build but I have a number of Vista Systems, some x86 and some x64. A mixture of Home/Business/Ultimate. Is there a way to recover more detailed info such as "Vista Ultimate x64 SP1" or do I need to poke around in the Registry?

I am using the windows installer which comes with VS 2008 to deploy my software. My initial deployment went well and I have several happy customers now. Unfortunately, one of my users found a bug. I have been able to locate and repair the issue- a simple math error in one of my forms. Now I need to deploy the repair to my existing customers without causing them too much headache in the update or, worse yet, inadvertantly deleting their stored database files.I know I can have them back up their existing db file, reinstall thenew app, and replace the new db files with their backup versions- but what a pain in the neck that will be, and it really won't look too professional, either.Does anyone know how to produce a patch to replace only the form that was repaired? Or, can I somehow exclude installing the new database files in the patch? I know the solution revolves around the Upgrade Code and Product Code, but I'm not putting the information together in my head very well.

View 2 RepliesI'm running into a little problem making one combo box dependent on the selection of another combo box. I'm using a access back-end to this project. I have two tables: MajorCategoryTbl and MinorCategoryTbl , MajorCategoryTbl has PK and description field, MinorCategoryTbl has a PK, MajorID (foreign key), and description field. I have two combo boxes on my form, one that displays the Major description, and one that displays the MinorCategoryTbl description, but the stored value is the PK for both. I want the selection of the minor category combobox to depend on what was selected in the major category combobox.

I have created a license system for my application with MySql about half a year ago. What it would do is take the serial number and send it to my server if the key was correct it would return a 0 if its wrong the return value would be a 1.The problem was that when the serial number was entered correctly my program would create a "fake file" for example vb.dll in the system.And on run time my program would check for that vb.dll if the file exist it would skip my trial program and run the app as a full version. Half year later i think creating a "fake file" and checking for it on start up is extremely wrong and that's not very good security.How can i check the difference between a full version and unregistered version?

I would like my program to overwrite its previous version such that users don't have to uninstall the previous version before installing the new one.
I'm guessing it has something to do with setting Publish Version (Major, Minor, Build, Revision), Assembly Version or File Version.

View 14 RepliesA few years ago I started development of an application using VB6.0. We shelved the project but are now looking at reviving it. In addition, we are looking at developing another application that we probably could design using use VB. Our OS: PC, XP SP3; Server, Windows Server 2000.
We plan to use both applications in our business; however, we believe there may be opportunities to develop and market both.What versions of VB are available? Is Visual Studio VB? [Please excuse my ignorance... I did not stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night. :)]
What version of VB would be best for us to use?
I am a heavy user of Telerik's library of controls, specifically for ASP.NET. However, there is a small bit of functionality which I wanted to add to some of the controls. Nowadays I can do this easy enough using Extension methods. So I wrote a small library which does exactly that. Obviously, this library needs to reference their DLL (Telerik.Web.UI.dll).In the My Project > References page of my DLL project, I have a reference to Telerik.Web.UI.dll. For this reference, I have the Specific Version property set to False, because I don't want my library to care about what version of the Telerik DLL is being used. THIS is my problem though... the .NET compiler doesn't seem to honor this setting.
Case in point, I have a website which references both the Telerik DLL and mine. I updated the Telerik library to the latest version. Now when I try to run my website, I get: Could not load file or assembly 'Telerik.Web.UI, Version=2012.1.215.40, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=121fae78165ba3d4' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)I fix this by going to my DLL project, recompiling it against the latest Telerik DLL, and then updating my DLL in the website. This is precisely what i didn't want to have to do every time I update Telerik's library. I thought that setting Specific Version to false would mean it would work with any version. No?
