A DIMWIT question no doubt but I was just in a project and wanted to modify some things in the code, thinking I could just "save as" the new project.Big problem because obviously it will "save as" the form only?
I guess the easiest way (or only way?) to do what I want would be --
Just rename the project folder in explorer, open it and then make my changes, right?
Its a League Organizer, basicly ive started it off with 16 teams and end up with 1(winner) 16 box's on the far left, then 8, then 4, then 2, then 1. the 16 box's have "Team 1" "Team 2" etc... ive put a new/clear/open/save button in that order.
BUT this is my problem..when i save(Save Button) the text file saves all the text wrong it ends up like this...Team 1Team 2Team 3Team 4 Etc...
But i want it to save like this
Team 1
Team 2
Team 3
Team 4
Etc...
The code is...
Dim Save As New SaveFileDialog
Save.Filter = "Text Files (*.txt)|*.txt|ALL FILES (*.*)|*.*"

I use Visual Basic 2008 to build my Application. How do I keep the previous one and upgrade the same project. I couldn't find Save as facility like before. Anything wrong with my VB 2008 setting? Any other way to do this so that I still keep my previous version. My intention is to have certain project with different capability so that I can give a choice to user. And also I can give different way of output to chose.
View 6 RepliesI want to rework and rename an existing application and utilize everything I've already done -- but it looks like it isn't going to be that simple?One post suggested renaming the folder, plus the project and another subfolder but when I opened that folder there were another 7 or 8 files that also needed changing.I DON'T want to do anything that will create a conflict and if I'm going to change to newname from oldname, I don't want to see "oldname" popping up anywhere..Is there a safe way to rename and reuse an exisitng project? Without anything being left out ?

View 2 RepliesFor reasons that are beyond my control, I have three Projects. Projects A and B reference project C. Project A references project B so that it can open a large form in project B. I now need to open that large form from project C, but VB won't allow me to add a reference from C to B because that would create a circular dependency. I found a way around it, though. I created a Timer in A, and when I opened C from A, I passed in that timer. When the user performs a certain action, I enable the Timer from A, and this causes C to open B for me.

View 2 RepliesI downloaded a sample Project from the web. I opened the sample Project in Visual Basic 2005 Express Beta 2. After making a lot of modifications to the sample Project, I wanted to save my new project with its own different name, and in the usual directory where I have been creating other projects. I pressed Save All and accepted the default choice. Unfortunately, after pressing OK, I realized that I had saved over the original downloaded sample project, and had saved my modified project in a temp directory designed to receive downloads from the web.It's not a problem that I overwrote the original sample project, because I have already retrieved a new fresh copy from the web. Nor is it a problem that I gave it the name of the original project, because I was able to figure out how to rename the modified project by right-clicking in the Solution Explorer.
My problem is that I didn't want to save my modified project in the download temp directory. I want to save the Project (and all its associated sub-directories and files) in a directory of my own choosing (the same directory in which all my other created projects are saved). But now that I have chosen to save the project in an undesirable location, I want to re-save it somewhere else.For the life of me I can't see how to do this. The Save All command doesn't give me the choice of selecting the name or location for my project, it just updates my currently undesired location. The other two save-oriented commands under the File menu selection (Save and Save As) seem to be oriented to just saving the singular item (form code, dialog box code, module, etc) on which I am currently working. I can't find anything such as a "Save Project As" kind of command. And I don't want to try to cut and paste the whole directory, because I'm too novice to know whether I am moving everything properly with regards to what VB2005 needs to find and where it needs to find it.
I'm working on a project. It is a windows form app which has a webbrowser. The app navigates to a url automatically, checks the url's document, and jumps to another url (depends on the document). It works fine. But, now, the problem is the project needs check many urls, so, I'm trying to make it as a MDI form project. when the start button clicked, it create a control thread, in the thread, it launchs 10 MDI forms (within main form), each form does the work for different urls. once done, then launch the next 10 urls.
It works. However, I noticed that, although 10 MDI forms are open, the navigating part in their webbrowser seems run in sequencial. I thought these 10 MDI forms will load 10 urls at the same time, do the work at the same time, but I found that it seems they do load urls one by one, not at the same time.so, I did some research, it seems webbrowser can only be run STA mode. does it mean I can not use multithread to load different urls at the same time?basically, I want to have a multi tab webbrowser, and navigate to different urls in these tabs at the same time.
Is there a way in VB to save files to folders which will exist in your project's folder once it it deployed? I am currently in development/test mode and commonly at run time, save text files and xml files to folders on my desktop or anywhere on my C: drive. I usually do this simply by giving a file path and name such as "C: est.txt" or "C: est.xml". However, this is not userful if I deploy the project. I will obviously want to save these files to a folder which exists in the directory of my deployed project Are there folders currently in place in the project that used as repositories for later use like this?
View 3 RepliesI want my high school students to be able to save their VB projects to their network drive folder on the school's fileserver. The students do not have access to the c: drive by Group Policy. VB does not even see the network drive each student has mapped. I have googled around and discovered it has to do with VB not trusting any network folders. There is a supposed solution by using the .net framework configuration tool but I had no success getting that to work. Right now I have them saving their project to their usb drives. They have a tendency to lose or forget those. Is there a simple way of getting those network folders accessable?
View 2 RepliesI routinely make backups of my VB 2008 projects, using Windows Explorer, copying the entire project file to a thumb drive. For some obscure reason, a couple of days ago it suddenly stopped working. Specifically, the project is fine on the harddrive, can be copied to a backup area of the harddrive, but when I copy it to the thumb drive, I get an error message indicating the file can't be found. This is not a new process--I have been backing up projects for several years and never encountered anything like this.
When I click on the project folder, it shows the typical files. When I doubleclick on the .sln file, nothing happens (meaning the file does not open as it does on the harddrive). Solution Explorer shows a .vb file. When I click that, I get the "Can't find the file" error. Other projects on the thumb drive open with no problem, but I am hesitant to overwrite those with "new" versions that may not work.
I like the way one saves settings in VB.Net, that is, with the project properties. However, I want to develop a mobile project that includes saving some settings. Problem is that the project properties doesn't include "Settings" when developing a mobile project.
View 3 RepliesI developed a organizer app that will allow me to type in multiple different script ideas I have. I have different text fields for genre, length, characters, etc. Anyway, my problem is how do I go about saving at the information in those text boxes. Is there someway I can save the project as a file, then open it back up to modify it, while still being able to create new ones. Someone suggested using xml data storage, but will that allow me to save multiple different data sets, since I won't just be working with one script all the type.
View 1 RepliesI have just learned about serialization, and looks very appealing as a way to save application data without much maintenance overhead.But I have one issue that I would like answered before I start coding.If a user saves a project via serialization, and then the program gets an update, say one that might have added or removed a property for an object.If the user then tries to load his previous project with the updated program, since the object now has a modified structure won't it fail to load from the previously serialized data?Would there be any way to recover/convert that saved data to the current object structure?
