I have developed a VB 2010 express application that works on my windows 7 machine, but when I deploy it to other windows 7 machines the application will not run at all. I created an msi script to install the software on other machines and it includes the .NET 4.0 framework an all of my application dll's and such. Any idea what might be he problem?
View 2 RepliesI have a Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition application that operates as a front end for iSeries V6r1. The application was developed on a windows 7 machine. Users load the application from a shared folder on a server. Currently, there are 2 Vista, 3 windows 7 and 4 XP users. All had no problem in loading application, all users except 3 of 4 XP users can run the application with no problems. However, 3 of the XP users receive the following error message when they perform any action that tries to connect to the iSeries:
System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection.
All 4 XP users are on same service pack
I have an app that moves the mouse, and does a click on the screen however, it seems to work great on windows XP machines, and when i try it on my windows 7 box, the window dosent close, or do anything..
I typically will hit my "execute" button, that will minize the window, then i place my cursor where i want it to go, and hit space bar, and it should move my mouse up a few spaces, click, and move to the next.. But again, winXP it works fine, win7 dosent do anything.

I have one tool which we developed on visual studio 2010. there are basically two parts of my project, one is UI part which i wrote in VB and algorithm part which is in C++ on back end. When we compile C++ part it creates a .dll which is used by my front end VB program.
Now my problem is little weird since i am compiling and deploying this tool on windows xp machine but some of the users are using windows 7 64 bit machines and after running the program for about 5-10 minutes, it crashes on windows 7 with following error
Not enough storage is available to process this command and when i view details of that error, i get the following description.

View 7 RepliesI have an application written in VB.net, compiled and loaded on machines running XP, Vista and Server 2003. When I loaded it on a machine running Windows 7 64 bit, the application runs fine, but one window that has MenuItem controls does not work properly, instead of being able to change items from the collection, that area is just greyed. I loaded the .NET 4.0 framework on it in hopes of some miracle, but it still does not work.
View 1 RepliesWe have an application(.exe), longtime back some developer wrote the code and now he is not with the company. I happend to be support this application. I have to do some modifications in the code.I have a .vb file and .Config file with me. The .VB file is calling a SSIS pkg and doing some dataload and creates some files and it formate the file names what it generates and it send emails to large group of ppl.I have opend the code in Visaulstudio but i do not have any option to debug or do some breakpoints.How can I use this config file?Do I have to add both of them in the project? To debug I need SSIS pkg as well so do I have to add all these 3 of them into my solution?I know where to change the code, after changing the code how can I create a application EXE file?
View 6 RepliesWe are using a Windows 7 virtual machine as a testing platform for our VB 6 application. Th application utilizes an Access database.The application locates the database by looking at a configuration (ini) file.When I install the application on the virtual machine, it places a database where InstallShield directs it to and writes that path to the ini file. All well and good.However,somehow a second copy of the database is created in a user local folder.
If the user uses the "run as administrator" option, the application uses the database that is in the location designated in the ini file and that works fine. But if the user does not select the "run as administrator" option, the application apparently somehow attempts to use the local database and is unable to locate it.
Is this behavior is peculiar to the virtual machine, or is it something we need to be concerned about on "real" Windows 7 systems?If it is peculiar to the virtual machine, is there some way to get the virtual machine to behave more normally?
I have VB.Net application that has worked fine for years on XP and Windows 7. For some reason the last update I put out does not run even the simplest VB commands.Simple Environ() fails.I have tried putting simple VB commands onto a MsgBox on the start of the app and everything raises an error. I have no idea what is going on! The exact same app runs fine on Windows 7 clients. All the XP machines including a fresh XP virtual machine with the .Net 3.5 framework even gives the errors. No VB commands are working. I thought maybe something happened to my vbproj files, so I copied an older one from a couple weeks ago when things worked fine and it still does not work.

I have an installation of VS2010 with Windows 7 at work and a laptop with Windows 7 X64. I transferred a whole set of project files to the laptop but the directory "Documents" does not exist on the laptop - it is called "My Documents". As such of course I get errors when loading the project on the X64 machine as the resource files cannot be found. I have tried changing the name of the directory to "Documents" to accord with the other PC, and this was apparetnly successful. But, VS still does not "see" the files in the renamed directory. How can I simply change the path name for the resource files so that VS can see these files?

Note: There is some performance penalty associated with assembly bind failure logging.To turn this feature off, remove the registry value [HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftFusion!EnableLog].
I guess this is a reference issue, but I have added references to WMP libraries (axinterop.wmplib.dll and interop.wmplib.dll). The WMP works on the XP machine, but not when called from my application.I have searched the web now for 5 days and changed references, and reinstalled the media player on the XP machine, but nothing works.

I have built a DLL for changing the default printer to a new value and then setting it back to the original. This DLL will be called from a VBA addon to an ERP product. I think the version of the VBA is 6.3.
I have built a Visual Basic 2008 Dll using a COM component. This generates a DLL and TLB file. Using Regasm.exe from the .net frameworkv2.0.50727 folder to successfully register these components on Windows XP and Window 7 32 bit.
However, when I try to do this on a Windows 7 64 bit system, it fails. After some fiddling around, I was able to get a successful registration using the Regasm.exe in framework64v2.0.50727. But after the successful registration, the VBA project still cannot use the DLL.
When I try to Reference the .tlb file in the VBA project, it is not visible even though the dialog filter is set to dll, tlb.If I try to use late binding by using the getobject and/or createObject method, it fails.
There are two ways to answer this request.1. How do I register my 32 bit COM dll on a Windows 7 64 bit machine?
2. How do I write a COM DLL component from scratch for a WIndows 7 64 bit machine using Visual Basic 2008 ( or 2010. I will upgrade if necessary)?
