Jun 18, 2010I am having trouble running a VB.NET 2.0 Serial Port application in Windows 7. I developed it in Windows XP, it ran fine in Windows 2000 and now when the company upgraded the machines to Windows 7, the application does not kick off. All platforms were/are 32-bit. I did some research online, but have not found anything relevant to resolve my issue. Does anyone know what the issue might be and the possible solution to it?

Windows Media Player Not Working On Windows XP Using Visual Studio Application?
Aug 8, 2011I have embedded the WMP control in my Visual Studio 2010 app which works on windows 7 (Framework 4.0), but installing the app on winXP, I get the following error:
System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'Interop.WMPLib, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
File name: 'Interop.WMPLib, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'
[code]....
WRN: Assembly binding logging is turned OFF.To enable assembly bind failure logging, set the registry value [HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftFusion!EnableLog] (DWORD) to 1.
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.

VS 2005 Windows And Timing Routine Not Working Together?
May 2, 2009I have a timer routine (basically just a timing loop) that moves shapes around the screen. The problem is that it isn't in sync with Windows (Vista). If a Windows background program runs (like an antivirus) the screen goes gray. The timing routine still runs but the display is shut off. Only when the shapes are done moving does the screen return to normal (but I didn't actually see the shapes move). Another good example of my issue is when I finish debugging and press the Start button, again I don't see the shapes move, I just see a grayed out screen with the cursor in "busy" mode.
All the other VB.NET programming I've done doesn't assume so much control as this timing loop. I've never had to worry about coordinating a routine with other windows functions. What's the trick to getting this stuff to work together smoothly?
Windows Application 1 Stopped Working?
Jun 24, 2011I am trying to get an application installed on a friends computer, written in VB 2008 Express. However, he continues to receive the Windows Application 1 stopped working message whenever he launches it.
He states that there are not any error details, and I am in a different state so I cannot even begin to diagnose the situation, so this is all I have to work with. Are there any suggestions where I can even begin to look that would cause this? He is on Win7. which is what I developed the app on. The program is pretty simple, and utlizes sql server r2. Any suggestions on some starting points to check? I have run it on 6 or 7 other computers with no problems.

.Net Application Stopped Working On XP But Works Fine On Windows 7?
Jun 23, 2010I 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.

2005 : Crystal Reports Application Or Windows Application To Generate Pdfs?
Apr 13, 2011I currently have a simple crystal reports application which generates a crystal report and in the built in viewer provided by VS2005. There is a drop down where you can select options to change the criteria of the report. I wish to convert this app to a windows executable which will take all those select options and generates pdfs based on the crystal report. the executable will be triggered by windows task scheduler...or maybe command line app?
Obviously this will be somewhat of a re-write. What would be the best way to start this as? a crystal report application or a windows application.

VS 2005 Windows Application For Windows 7
Jan 31, 2010I have come across to develop an application for Windows 7.My program has one setting file and one LogFiles folder under the same folder as EXE. User will change some setting from Program and the values will update in this file. If there is an error, error detail will log in Logfiles/ todaydate.txt file.(Later I discovered/learnt that I should not edit/write the files to Program Files/sub folders.)So, now I'm trying to move these two files to another location. After searching a few on Net and I got the following result.[code]When I make Setup project for my application, I have to put the Setting file under one of these location.And what I found was, I only has a choice of "User's Application Data Folder" which is equivalent to My.Computer.FileSystem.SpecialDirectories.CurrentUserApplicationData.If i put Setting.ini file under this folder in Setup project, it gave me an warning of "File 'Setting.ini' should not be installed into a User's Profile folder because it may not be available to all users."

Jan 10, 2012We're starting to evaluate VS 2010, but right now I'm trying to do a simple Windows application in Visual Studio 2005 on an XP box.
Eventually, this will become a web service, but I want to test the XSLT file I am using in a simple application first.
Here is the XSLT file:
CODE:
The file is added to my project, XMLTest.
The code that generates and parses the file to change to a text file is as follows:

A sample output XML file is as follows:

When I run the VB code to input and transform the XML output I get a filenotfoundexception error that I can not figure out, because where it is expecting the XSLT file doesn't seem to make any sense.
If it were going to always be hosted on my machine, I'd use an absolute path, but it's not going to be, and I'm going to be switching to a Windows 7 x64 box after lunch anyway.
