Retrieve Code From A Vb Project Coded In 2005 Version?
Apr 24, 2010
I have a software coded using visual basic 2005. I don't have the 2005 version now and i need to edit that software. Is there any way to retrieve the code using vb2008 or vb2010? If not from where can i download the 2005 version? I need to do it at the earliest.
I have created a windows application in VB.Net 2005 using MS Access as backend.Now before delivering its setup to client I have to create its trial version of 30 days and 60 days.How to do this ?Also my setup should be installed only on one computer.I mean my setup copy should be used for one time only.I know how to deploy the project i.e. I can create a simple setup of my project.
Below is an snippet from my project template. I have some classes I want to link to in the project.One of my developers created the template and I copied it to my PC.It seems to work on his, but when I create a new project, instead of keeping the hard coded path the "my documents" gets replaced.I know this is a little cryptic, but I was hoping to flesh the question out with your questions.[code]
I want to convert the code at Webcam using DirectShow.NET to C#. It works perfectly in vb.net. I tried converting using an online converter, however I got about 30 errors
I'm developing application that is plugable. The plugins are loaded via Assembly.LoadFrom(). In my solution I have 4 projects. A WPF, 2 DLL and another DLL that is a plugin for the app. The plugin project references one of the other DLLs. When I build the Solution and run I was getting an error trying to use the plugin dll because it was expecting an older version of the referenced project. I had to clean and rebuild the plugin project to get it to run correctly.
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)
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?
In Visual basic 6 I often use Flexgrid component, I see that in VB.NET these components are not available. Component should I use instead of Flexgrid. What do I need to call Flexgrid componet (VB6 Version) into the project. NET from COM.
I am using VB.NET 2008 Express Edition and INNO Setup. When I create a setup and run it, the resulting install is an older version of my project from, I think, 2 or 3 days ago. If I go back to my project in the developer window and run the project, it is clearly a newer version than the install. Since this installed version that comes up was done I have added a form and made many other changes.Is it because the build didn't exeucte? When you run the project doesn't it execute a build every time?I tried this again from a backup. (The backup is much more recent than the version I'm getting.) And it still does the same thing.Why does the install not match the project? It is not possible to go into the project and add the changes because they are already there.
confirm the forum for this question about Visual Web Developer 2010 Express. I found a VWD Express forum, but it was in Spanish... Lo Siento. My issue is selecting a down-level, 3.5, framework version as I create a new project/website. I have figured out how to CHANGE the target framework version once the website/project is created. I have the 3.5x installed on the system and available. The articles I have seen discussing this issue, refer to a framework version selection drop list in the new project creation dialog/wizard. I do not have that option.
I've decided to go with a Windows Installer (Setup Project) in VS Prof, rather than ClickOnce,I've added this project to my main project, and have right clicked and selected 'View -> Launch Conditions', it requires the .netframework 3.5.21022...
But I've created the installer project for .NET 2.0 framework, is this going to stop someone from installing the project without .NET framework 3/3.5?EDIT: I've found under the properties of that installer project, that .NET framework 3.5 and Windows Installer 3.1 was selected as a prerequisite, unchecked those, and checked .NET Framework 2.0, however the version under the launch condition .NET Framework is still 3.5, it should be 2.0
Let's say I roll out version 1 of this project for many users. As time goes by I update the code, change the Access db strucutre here and there, and would like to roll out version 2.What is the best way to do this?Is there an easy way to get the differences between version 1 and version 2 of an access db?
I am new to this forum and also to vb.net (am an ex vb6 programmer)..I installed visual studio 2010 premium edition and it works with my own projects BUT trying to open the microsoft Lab5 solution file I get this error:
"/file cannot be opened because its project type (.csproj) is not supported by this version of the application"
Does the Express Version support adding multiple soultions (.sln) to a project or is this only available with the Professional version.I see that I can add a DLL as a reference that was built in 2010, but it is not letting me step into it with the debugger (or recompile changes to its source).
VB 2005 Express Visual BasicI want to move (part of) projects to different projects/ computer.I used File - export template- and was able to save templates of whole project or item(s).They saved nicely in a subdirectory called "templates" as zip files.How do I import to 1/ other project on same pc?2/ To a different computer?I tried copy zip files into corresponding folder on new system. No luck.
I am trying to retrieve a value saved in project A settings from project B in same solution set. Is this possible in VB.NET? If possible what namespace and function would I use?
I've asked this before, but it's just not working out in real life. I need to detect which OS is running. Most of them work, but not all. I define my variable:
[Code]...
Surely that isn't correct? these are the actual results from running the code on a machine and reading what it says. From this information, I can't distinguish between Vista and Win2008. How do I do this? What's the difference?
I am making a little Diagnostic Test app to check that certain folders and files exist.I would also like to list some system specs, i have almost all the ones i need except the currently installed framework version.
I have search the My.Computer libraries and in the help but cannot get the framework version to display in a listbox.How to get the framework version into a string?
I have a multi-threaded client and server application written in VS 2005. The server application runs thousands of SQL Server 2005 stored procedures and a lot of file IO. The client application does a lot of file searching, file IO, and string comparisons.Right now everything targets the 2.0 framework. Would it be advantageous to upgrade one or all 3 of them to the 2010 versions? I'm mostly interested in seeing speed enhancements. I haven't been able to find much saying 2010 is better than 2005.
I have Visual Studio 2010 and a VB Project that had a reference to Microsoft.Interop.Excel 12.0. Well recently I changed the reference version to 14.0. That was actually a mistake and now I need to bump it back down to version 12.0. However I get this error in my project now...
Project 'MyProject' requires a reference to version '14.0.0.0' of assembly 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel', but references version '12.0.0.0' of assembly 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel'.
I tried removing references and adding the com object to, but no avail.
