View 1 RepliesVS 2008 Use MSChart In A .NET 2.0 Environment?
Oct 26, 2010I've googled a bit and saw someone said they had success in simply dragging the .dll files over to their application's path. I have tried this as well, and unfortunately it doesn't work. It stops the errors, but my chart is entirely blank. Some of the features of the chart work. ie: the legend shows up. But I have hidden some items from the legend and they still appear in the legend while running on a 2.0 system. For example, on my development machine, it shows 4 items in the legend, but on the 2.0 machine, there are all 7 - including the 3 that I have hidden.

VS.Net 2008 Windows 7 Debug Environment
Mar 24, 2011I'm converting all of my Windows XP production applications to Windows 7 and I am having a couple of problems.
1: Whenever I get an error, on the XP machines, it breaks execution and stops on the line of code with the problem. In Windows 7, it just throws a generic exception and I have no idea where the line of code with the error took place. Very frustrating.
2: In XP, I can edit changes on the fly while I am running code if I place breakpoints or follow along the code. If I try that in Windows 7, it says that's not allowed with 64 bit applications.

VS 2008 General Security - Implementing A Piece Of Software I've Created Into A New Environment
Mar 26, 2011I'm looking at implementing a piece of software I've created into a new environment. It is currently accessed via network share by users who have full administrative permissions on their user accounts. These same users will have their accounts locked down excessively. I am wanting to consider now before any changes have been made, any code changes I will need to make as my application makes use of a lot of features that admin users take for granted such as registry editing. My program is running through the .net 3.5 framework and is being accessed on XP machines.

It will always have a "1" before the extension, but the two numbers before that change, lastly I need that file returned as a variable.
View 4 RepliesVS 2008 Use The Value Of One Variable To Call Another Variable Of The Same Name?
Feb 7, 2011I am trying to use the value of one variable to call another variable of the same name.I have 2 variable one called VAR1 and VAR2.
The variable VAR1 has a value of "VAR2"
The variable VAR2 has a value of "HELP"
I want to be able to get the value VAR2 from the variable VAR1 I have defined the value of VAR2 early in the code and now I want to call that value by using the value of VAR1.The reason I am doing it this way as I have a list of 50 variables that are pulled from one system. Each of these variables have the same name as the columns of a spreadsheet. The total number of Variable stay the same but the total column headers may vary each time. I need to loop through each of the column headers match them with the variable names and add the data to the spreadsheet.
VAR1 = "VAR2"
VAR2 = "HELP"
i =1
[code]....
This is the tricky bit...if the value of the cell(1,i) = "VAR2" How do I get it to display the value of the variable of the same name In this case how will I get it to display "HELP" when I only have from the VAR1 value "VAR2" I know my code will bring back the value as a string but I want it to bring back that string as a variable and display the value of that variable?

I just can't seem to find them on my computer.I am not sure if the registry is the only place to find it or if it stored on the web browser such as internet explorer or google chrome.
View 1 RepliesFile I/O And Registry :: Reading Multiple Keys From The Registry?
Aug 27, 2008I am writing an application that connects to a specific com port. This com port can change depending on how many physical ports are on the PC, and if other USB devices have installed com ports before this one.
I have the communication to the com port all working great, but I need to get the com port description not just the "COM#" which is all I currently get.
I found in the registry where the description is stored but am having trouble doing what I need.
In this key:
Code:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMControlSet001ControlClass{4D36E978-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
there is a varied number of sub keys. The are numbered 0000-NNNN depending on how many ports you have. Inside each of these keys, there are multiple values, although I am only interested in one or 2 of them.
My problem is, that I do not know how to get a list of the subkeys (the 0000-NNNN keys/folders) from the original key I posted. I have looked through a few registry tutorials, and I can view the default value in the listed key, but I could not find how to list the subkeys of the listed key.
Does anyone have any sample code they could share that shows how I can get a listing of subkeys, and then run through those subkeys checking for a specific value in one of the strings contained in the subkey?
I am using VB.net 2008 and Windows XP.

I've been searching the forums and I've seen allot of ways to do it without the .reg file, instead taking the values and putting them in the correct syntax, but I already have the .reg file and it would take far too much effort to place all the values in the correct syntax (The amount of values is huge). What is the code to do this? Do I have to somehow add the .reg file to the project?
