VS 2005 Which .Net Version Would Choose
Apr 26, 2010
I have a multi-threaded client and server application written in VS 2005. The server application runs thousands of SQL Server 2005 stored procedures and a lot of file IO. The client application does a lot of file searching, file IO, and string comparisons.Right now everything targets the 2.0 framework. 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.

I have several excel sheets which I'd like to work with different Excel versions using VB.NET Basically, I want to choose which Excel version I will open certain worksheet using VB.NET. Is there any way to know which Excel version is installed in the machine and how many versions with VB.NET? And how do I choose which Excel version I will open it?
I'd like to know it through programming, I know that this can be done if you take a look at the registry keys in the machine. Although, what I need is to create a software that asks the user for the Excel version he want to open

I need my code to be able to choose 5 random files from a folder. I was hoping I could instantiate the Scripting.FileSystemObject then grab the target folder as an object and do something like FolderObject.Files(12).Name but apparently that's not doable. What I did works, but is sloooow:
FS = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Folder = FS.GetFolder("c: emp")
for y=1 to 5

I'm relearning VB.net just for fun, so consider me new at this. I'm trying to write a program where the user can input a list of names or numbers, and the program will randomly pick one of those names or numbers. So far, I can get it to randomly generate numbers based on what I put in the code, but I don't know what I should use for the user to input the data, and how to code it so that the program will pick from that data.

How they relate and differ from each? What are the best practices for version control? Is there a primer about publish online? Or a good book?
And is it possible to make ClickOnce and a msi in one solution of VS 2008? If so, is there any conflict or pitfall?
BTW I am using VB if that makes any difference.

I've asked this before, but it's just not working out in real life. I need to detect which OS is running. Most of them work, but not all. I define my variable:
[Code]...
Surely that isn't correct? these are the actual results from running the code on a machine and reading what it says. From this information, I can't distinguish between Vista and Win2008. How do I do this? What's the difference?

I know how to check for the version information from inside a VB2005 application:
Dim version as String= String.Format("Version {0}", My.Application.Info.Version.ToString)
That works fine. But let's say I have two applications, A and B. App A wants to find out what app B's version is. Is there a way to do that?

But this does not exist. All I have under environment is specialfolder.

Is it possible to retrieve the pervious upgradeCode that was used to install the same application?
I have given our application to many or our clients.
They install our application using the MSI.
Everytime I release a new version for bug fixes or minor upgrades. In the setup project properties I increment the version number and change the product code (I always leave the same upgrade code). And I set the 'RemovePreviousVersion' to true.
However, a few weeks ago, I accidently changed the upgradeCode and released a new version to our customers. It was only now that a customer wanted to know why they have other instances of the same application in their 'add remove programs'. It installs ok, but they have to uninstall the previous version.
I am wondering is it possible to get back the original upgrade that was used to install those versions. As I used the same setup project, I no longer have that upgrade code?
I still have all my original setups.exe that were built with the original upgradecode

I am currently working on a family project which is based on "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?" show. There is a huge diffrence between the show and my project. My project is a christmas edition and the goal is not to get money or something, since I will not add it... Erhmm... Let me get to the point. I have already designed a layout and scripted some things. I have about thirty questions but I do not want them to always spawn in the same array, if you know what I mean. I want the program to randomly choose one of those thirty questions and NEVER choose the same question in the same program run. By the way, there are four options on my project: A, B, C and D. I have got everything, I just need a code.

One 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?

I'm trying to make a light version of a Blackjack game. The rules I need to use are as follows:
Ace = 1
Normal Cards = 2-10
Color Cards (king, queen, etc,) = 11
The dealer can keep hitting until it reaches 17 or under 21, he must always stay once it hits 17 or over (without busting obviously).
I know the ace normally should be 1 or 11 normally but I don't want to complicate things, I want to get the main thing of the program working first.
Public Class frmMain
'declaration to help generate number
Dim RandomClass As New Random()

The message "Could not find file 'Microsoft.Windows.CommonLanguageRuntime, Version = 2.0.50727.0'." started appearing after I attempted to publish my software. All previous versions of my software are affected as well. I have two projects in the solution. Both are written in vb. All versions used to work fine.

osValue =
My.Computer.Registry.GetValue("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindows NTCurrent Version", "CurrentVersion", "5.2")

I 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?
