Unable To Deploy Application With Visual Basic Power Packs
Mar 24, 2009
I include the power packs in my app, and now I encounter problems when I try to deploy it to some other Win-XP machines which do not have Visual Studio (2008), although I include its DLL inside the installation package. The DLL is "C:Program FilesCommon FilesMicrosoft SharedVisual Basic Power Packs1.1Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks.Vs.dll" and I'm just copying it into the installation path. What am I missed?

I got a new laptop friday, it has windows 7 and its a 64 bit system. I installed visual studio 08. everything was fine until I opened one of my projects.Seems like the powerpacks drawing items no longer exist, there is only a pointer and reort viewer in the group now and all of the items that I have used in the past are keep my app from running.
But the install only works on the machine it was built on, if I take them out it installs but no graphs. How can I get this to install on all machines?
I wanna detect the version of installed Visual Basic Power Packs in target system.How can I do it with Registry values (Windows from Win XP)?Or, How can I check the version of Visual Basic Power Packs assembly , e.g : how I can check the version of Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks assembly ?
I am writing a program on my Windows XP computer at home and installed Power Packs 3 so I could take advantage of Printforms I copied the project to my flash drive and brought program to my office that has windows 2000, the program wouldnt load because Power Packs wasnt intalled.

I've just created a setup file for my application . Instead of using the click once process , I used the Create Install Free 4.14.5 program , in order to be able to specify some parameters that under click once I couldn't (like specifying installation folder etc) . The problem , however , is that now when I installed the application , an error message appears saying that the computer is missing the Visual Basic Power Packs 9.0 (which I indeed used in my application) . So , is there any way I can add it to my setup file ? That is in order to avoid making people manually downloading and installing it .

We are installing our application on windows 7. The application utlizes a Acces database. The application locates the database by looking in the registry under at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE / SOFTWARE / WOW6432NODE / COMPANY NAME / SOFTWARE NAME /STARTUP. When i install the application on windows 7 it places the a database where installshield directs it to and writes the path to the registry. However, somehow local copies of the database are showing up under the user profiles. (Example: c:/users/profilename/AppData/Local/VirtualStore/Program FIles (X86)/Company/SoftwareName/Data). We recently changed it to store the information in c:/ProgramData/Company/software however the same issue occurs and its creating local copies of the database and when the application runs it points to the local copy of the database. What we need is for all users to be pointed to and use the same database in ProgramData, is there something we are missing to accomplish this?
It needs to be run standalone on NT How do you launch a VB app without VB being installed on the run-time computer? The VB executable will be on a CD. It can be standalone or as part of a bat file.
I have finished by killer app but it seems that I will have to go to a third party tool in order to create a deployment CD. My problem with both the 2005 version and the 2008 version is that the "Add New Project" window contains only the "Templates" panel. The "Project types" panel is missing from that window.I can see that I will have to do some hard work learning how to build a script for a third party deployment tool but I am very puzzled about why my "Add New Project" window is incomplete.I select << File/Add/New Project >> and it displays the incomplete window.[code]...

I have to write an application in Visual Basic.Net that will open an excel file, run through the contents an export a test file for processing.
The application works great for me (Windows 7) but when transferred to a WinXP PC gives the following error: HResult 0X800A03EC
I can replicate this error by making the Excel Application visible so it seems like it is an issue where it can't access the file because it is open. Error occurrs when trying open the workbook.

How can I open a Visual Basic application that I created in 2002? I downloaded a current version of Visual Basic Express and was able to connect a new project to the .mdb files but I couldn't figure out how to open the other files which I need to actually use the application.
Ideally I'd like to run the .exe file, but it doesn't seem to be compatible with Windows 64-bit. Alternatively I'd be happy recreating it with the various components if I could figure out how to access them.
