VS 2005 Installing And Using Older ActiveX Controls
Jun 6, 2011
I have some work I need to do with some older ActiveX controls. When I install the controls (outside of Visual Studio) I get an error message:
Quote:
The procedure entry point SRWriteStringLocalCmd could not be located in the dynamic link library SankyoMP.dll
Doing a little research I get a whole bunch of different answers. Microsoft says that this is because it was written for an older version of Windows (2000 or before, I am using XP) and to contact the vendor. The vendor is out of business.
Does anybody know of a way to install and use this older ActiveX control in VB.net/Visual Studio 2005?
I have created a created a webbrowser on a form and pointed it to [URL]..when i use the web form to change a verb, part way through navigation i get an the error:
Title Windows Internet Explorer body one or more activex controls cannot be displayed because either:
1) Your current security settings prohibit running activeX controls on this page or,
2) You have blocked a publisher of one of the controls
i'm trying using VB6 activex controls in VB2010. but i recive some registry errorsi try google search, but they speak about install VB6(i try but don't works).and theres a text from here:
I am creating a dedicated browser to be used exclusively on a single program located on my hard drive. Security is not a concern as the webbrowser URL will be set to the program's default web page path with no navigation options for going online. The program utilizes dynamic web pages with powerful search capabilities that require ActiveX controls. When I run my browser application, I get a series of security warning boxes stating:
Internet Explorer
An ActiveX control on this page might be unsafe to interact with other parts of the page. Do you want to allow this interaction?
Yes No
Clicking "Yes" allows me to continue and the program features work, but the recurrent warning message boxes are annoying. The default "script errors suppressed" property of the webbrowser control is "false." If I change it to "true" I don't get the security warning boxes but some of the search features on the web pages with ActiveX controls don't work properly.
Is there a way to programmatically enable ActiveX controls in the webbrowser control so that I can set the "script errors suppressed" property to "true" (hence no security warning message boxes) and still allow the ActiveX features to work properly? Or, set the "script errors suppressed" property to "false" and have my program automatically activate the "Yes" button each time a security warning message box is called by Internet Explorer? The goal is to get the ActiveX controls to work in webbrowser without having to click through the warnings.
Any ideas why I am getting this error on debug, I have this control on another App and it works fine.An error occurred creating the form. See Exception.InnerException for details
I have a number of ActiveX controls which make use of consituent controls (edit boxes,combo boxes etc). I'm using these in a VB .Net 2005 project.When I run the application within the IDE, all the ActiveX controls display correctly with the XP visual styles.But when I run the built assembly, the ActiveX controls display without XP visual styles
I have developed win application on win XP with office 2003 using visual studio .net 2005.I am using Microsoft activex spreadsheet component.I installed my application on win 7 with office 2007, i get runtime error when i load the screen on ehich i have used that component. it says "Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt"My AxInteropx.Owc11.dll and Interop.Owc11.dll are in same directory where .exe is stored.
I have seen this happen before but am not sure how I resolved it in the past. On runtime the controls of my form change from the windows 7/vista format to an older version format as shown in the attached image.
How to display the controls in the format on the left (new windows format)
Im trying to compile a project but when i open it the fol. msg is displayed:Warning 1 The referenced project '..ExtGridViewExtGridView.csproj' does not exist. WODB_LibraryWarning 2 The referenced component 'ExtGridView' could not be found.
I have an app that I've developed that has a vb.net front end and a SQL Server 2000 database backend. I currently have it running fine on my machine and it also installs fine on all the users that are inside the domain that the app was written in. When I try to install my application on another domain it hangs and doesn't even run the install script.
Has anyone ever experienced problems installing an app accross domains?
Is there something that I need to code differently to make it non-domain specific?
I have an activeX OCX which i used in my program in vb6 (it is a 3rd party component), it actually interfaces with a PLC to do some work. Now i am porting my VB6 app to vb.net (Console application), i tried to reference it and create an instance of the activeX. But i realised that my instance is always = nothing. Here is the code snippet of what am i doing and i have attached the activex ocx in a zip file. Will anyone test it if it will work in vb.net (Console apps only).
I have a DLL that utilizes the Redemption Outlook Library. This is included in the DLL's Reference on the Project Properties Tab. This is a DLL that I wrote and one of its newest features is its ability to send an email.This DLL is called by a Click-Once program that has a GUI. When the program called the DLL and at the point of sending the email....I receive the "Cannot create ActiveX Component" error. So, in the Click-Once application, I also referenced the Redemption Outlook Library thinking that would fix the problem but it didn't. The Click-Once app resides on a server with other Click-Once apps. In it's irectory structure the DLL is also present and now....so is the Redemption Outlook Library DLL. I'm all out of ideas. Here is the code that sends the emails below.
Private Sub SendEmailToUser() Try Dim Application = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
I have an issue using Process.MainWindowTitle,Process.MainWindowHandle on some older VB6 applications. After Process.Start I use Process.MainWindowTitle to display in a listbox. The MainWindowTitle returned is not the Window Title but in fact the Project name of the VB6 exe.? I also store the MainWindowHandle to use the ShowWindow and SetForeGroundWindow API's. It would appear that the ShowWindow API does not work, but the SetForegroundWindow does. ie: if the VB6 app is minimized, showwindow does not restore, if it is NOT minimized setforewgroundwindow sets it to the foreground. The exact same code does work correctly for any other .net exe or notepad, only on these vb6 programs I am having a problem.
I have these robots. The maker of the robots (Sankyo) wrote some ActiveX controls. Some work, some don't. There is absolutely no support on the ActiveX from Sankyo or anybody else. I think except for parts and service Sankyo is out of the robotics business in the US.The examples are in VB6. Here is one example of one that does not work:
GetPosition(taskSpec As Long, coordType As Long, posArray As Variant) Dim vPoints(3) As Single SRSync.GetPosition 1, 1, vPoints
The error I get is a cryptic hex code that I can't find anything on. If I try the exact code above in VB6 I get a message that says that the vPoints variable is not the right kind of array. I have tried all kinds of data structures in both vb6 and vb.net including just a simple object. I suspect that the data is coming back in some kind of structure that makes vb puke.I have read about marshaling but an still confused. In this case I don't understand the underlying mechanics of how the returned stream of data gets converted into the variable "posArray".I am thinking that if I could just get a look at what is being returned then I could create some kind of code that could chop it up and make it usable.
I am working with an ActiveX control and need the ability to detect a mouse click. The problem I've run into is that this ActiveX control does not have a Click event. Is there a way to add a Click Event to this control?
I am trying to load an actixex component in a VB project which was made in Visual C++.n VBA it works fine.In VB6, when I try to load the component on the toolbox I get an "Error 35005"In VB2008 the component can be added to the toolbox, but when I try to place it on the form, the following error occurs: "Failed to import ActiveX control. Please ensure it is properly registered."

When I try to install an application to another user's computer I receive a message box that says "Unable to run or install application. The application requires that assembly Microsoft.SqlServer.Pipelinehost version 9.0.242.0 be installed in the global assembly cache (GAC) first.A key feature of the app is to export data from sql server to an excel spread sheet so I have the following import statements
I'm using the following code to kill a program: Dim pProcess() As Process = System.Diagnostics.Process.GetProcessesByName("myprogram.exe") For Each p As Process In pProcess p.Kill() Next
At one point it's running twice and the above code kills em all including the one currently running, resulting in an access error. Is there any way to say, kill the older myprogram.exe only. Compare both of them and see which one was executed first and terminate this one, keeping the later one running.
I have some project that written in .net 3.5 environment. But there still some dependency to .net 2.0 .How I can find this dependence parts of the code that use the old API ? I just want to update all code to 3.5 version.Project written in vb.net.
The software I design is for Win XP and older versions such as Win 98, ME, 2000 etc. I currently use VB6 and Win XP for development and packaging, the problem I encounter is that if I use the deployment wizard in XP, the setup will only work on an XP machine and I need to copy all my source to an older machine and use the wizard again to create another setup file which will only work on the older operating systems. Is there a way to rectify this in VB6? If not, does the new VB account for this and be able to make a setup file for older operating systems as well as XP?
how is it possible to get the CD TOC with Visual Basic 2008? Is there anywhere a tutorial about this?I have found some links but all is described with older Versions (VB 6).
