VS 2005 : Check The DirectX Version At Install Time?
Jul 1, 2009One of the applications I've written uses DirectX in order to record the user speaking (basically for making verbal notes about something). It fails to work correctly when the installed version of DirectX isn't recent enough. I'm just using a setup project of the type inbuilt into VS 2005, is there a way to check at install time that DirectX is recent enough?
View 3 RepliesVS 2008 Check Difference Between A Full Version And Unregistered Version?
Sep 1, 2010I 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?

View 3 RepliesVersion Control Add-In And Allows Multiple Check-outs Of A File?
Nov 23, 2010I'm looking for Version Control software that works with VS 2008 & allows multiple check-outs of a file, merging the changes as each version is checked back in. Obviously this would require manual resolution when two programmers changed the same procedure,but that rarely happens here-what usually happens is we have two (or more) programmers working on different parts of the program that happen to occur in the same file so only one of them can actually do their work at a time. Highly inefficient.
We're currently using Visual Source Safe, by the way. I 'inherited' this so I'm not *absolutely* certain it can't be configured for this, but if so none of the older programmers (in terms of time in this office) know about it. I think they used a home-grown program. Besides, I haven't been able to remember who I heard about it from so remembering that really isn't a help-at least not yet.

VB: Getting Checkboxes On Windows Form To Check If Their Values In A Database Field Is Check (True)
May 10, 2011This is my problem.I have a field set up in MS Access to Boolean YES/NO, this field is populated when the user check a checkbox on a windows form. If the user check a checkbox, the value is written as checked in the data field (MS Access).The problem is when I search for the user information, I need the information from the Data base to populate(return) to the windows form. Example: If I enter a users phone number and the user data is present, the form gets populated with the information the user previously entered which was store in the database.Example: If the user selected checkbox1 and submits the form. When I search for the user info, the check box should check(populate) because the user had checked it on submit.Here is what I have done:

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.
