VS 2008 Changing The Datasource So That Application Will Run On A Machine With No Network?
Oct 14, 2009
I have created an application which uses an sql server connection as its datasource. The problem I'm having is that the application needs to work on computer that has no network connection. How Can i change the datasource so that on runtime it can work off a machine that is not connected to a network? The datasource from the sql connection only contains one table with no data. It only needs to be updated with a target folder that can be changed to any location on any computer already written in the code.
The connection string suddenly stands as: Dim MyConnectionString As String = "Data Source=MY-PC;Initial Catalog=ImageLocs;User Id=test;Password=test;Pooling=False"

Get the view of another machine on the network, or window of another application in my application (like I could see e.g.: Sage on a e.g.: browser in my application).This would be a great improvement for the users that use some applications on our server computer, at the moment we use remote windows connections but we don't want to allow the server as with full permission for some users.

Here is my idea so far: I have a bunch of computers connected in a local network. One of them is a MySQL server, one will have a vb.NET program wich will act as a "second server" and the rest will be different clients. What I want to do is that the "second server" will send out some kind of message or network package to some of the clients in the network, and they will execute a code based on what message it is, or what kind of package it is. I'll give you a simple example:

Background Hi here is my problem. Im a system admin and we have just completed a scheme of giving new pc's to disadvantaged children throughout our town. Now we have over 200 machines gone out but they have not been configured with a static IP address so they can access the Internet. what i want to do is create a program in VB.net to send a bispoke version out to each house to change the machines IP address, Subnet, Default gateway and Proxy server + port [URL]but i wont have 200 of these keys so thats not really and option unless they are generic as all of the machines have the same network card.

i have a win app in vb2005 but when i want to create a data-source to connect with my database i got this error: The file \CATV-ANTIVIRUSdata|CLINICA_Data.mdf is on a network path that is not supported for database files.
An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file \CATV-ANTIVIRUSdataCLINICA_Data.mdf failed. a database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share. i need the datasource to start creating datareports but i don't know how to resolve this problem before.

I have a VB2008 application that runs off a server. Users connect to the application via shortcut.
[code...]
For what it's worth, the application is targeting .NET 2.0 Framework on both the development side and package install side.
The illustration below is more for my sake than yours, but should help me explain the problem.
User A and B work just fine, but when User C and User D attempt to use the program via shortcut9(same as User A and B) the error below is displayed.
[code...]
what I can do to allow User C and D to use the application?

On the earlier version of VB.net 2003, I could run a wizard to give full trust to a .Net application on the network. With VB.net 2008, there is no longer a wizard to do this. I did some Googling and most of the references I find refer to using Caspol for .Net 2.0. That doesn't seem to be an option .net 3.5 (I can't find Caspol in the framework folder). Does anyone know how to do this for VB.net 2008?

In a windows forms project, I have several combo boxes. The first combo box contains a list of objects. Those objects then have several lists which are used as the datasource's for the successive combo boxes, depending on which item is chosen in the first.

I have a .NET 2.0 *.dll that calls My.Computer.Network.Ping(). The *.dll is then run out of an *.exe via AppDomain.CreateDomain() and Invoke(). The problem is that this works just fine under Windows XP but under Windows 7, I get an exception saying that no network connection is available. I tried the Ping() call out of a small console application under Windows 7 and it works just fine.

I have about 15 .RPT files on my .NET 2.0 site, and I recently changed to a new database server.I successfully changed the Datasource on 14 of those .RPT files, but on one, after making the change, I get "Failed to Save Document" when I try to save the updated report. I can change the subreport's Datasource, and save it just fine, but when I try to change the main report's Datasource I get that error message.I'm definitely doing a "Verify Database" at various times throughout the process, but that doesn't seem to help.

I've compiled my application and started testing it on other machines.
It crashes instantly on every machine except the build machine - I'm fairly new to programing so any pointers as to where I would start would be great.
If I install VS2008 on the test machines it runs fine...
I'm using VS2008 on Windows 7 (x64)
Application is set to compile x86
An entry is made in the event log:
EventType clr20r3, P1 5xhruzlemrj2jn2wizvzp1qaljyuxwtl, P2 1.0.0.0, P3 4c0abff3,

I was just writing a windows application that populates three comboboxes from the same datasource. My datasource is a datatable. The way i populate the comboboxes is by repeating the following code for each of the comboboxes:
'populate 1st combobox
cbx1.DataSource = table
cbx1.DisplayMember = "someColumn"
cbx1.ValueMember = "anotherColumn"
cbx1.SelectedIndex = Indx
[CODE]...
When the application is run, and I select an item from the dropdown list of, say, cbx1, my choice is reflected in cbx2 and cbx3 as well. I find this behaviour strange and will be grateful if anybody could explain what is going on here behind the scenes. On a side note, I've been able to circumvent this problem by modifying my code as shown below, but would still like to have an explanation for this seemingly strange behaviour.
'populate 1st combobox
Dim t1 as datatable = table.Copy
cbx1.DataSource = t1
cbx1.DisplayMember = "someColumn"
cbx1.ValueMember = "anotherColumn"
cbx1.SelectedIndex = Indx

On my program I am trying to make a ToolStripStatusLabel's text change to "connected" if connected to a network and if not connected to a network change the text to " Not Connected" then I don't know how to display a image if connected to a network or not connected. So if the computer is connected to a network I have a image that I would like to be displayed next to the ToolStripStatusLabel. And if not connected to a network, can the program display a different image? I tried this:
My.Computer.Network.IsAvailable=True(ToolStripStatusLabel2.Text "Connected")
My.Computer.Network.IsAvailable=False(ToolStripStatusLabel2.Text "Not Connected")

We 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?

When it is installed on a machine, it will run for all users. But for some users, it is unable to get some data from the database. I have found out that if it is run-as either administrator,or in winxp compatibility mode, it works. But if not, then some users have the problem.The database is in the same C: drive location as the exe, and it doesn't change from user to user.The computer is using windows 7 professional 32-bit.

I'm writing a VB.NET WEB application and I'm fairly new at it. What I want to do is open Excel workbooks on the client workstation so the user can "Save As" or print or basically do whatever they want with it past that point. I've done this in a windows application using System.Diagnostics but all the information I've read so far doesn't seem to work. I can open .txt and .xls files using this approach:[code]but it opens in the browser, which is not what I want. Do I need to mix Javascript with the HTML and the VB code?
