Jul 17, 2010I created a simple BMI calculator through the guide.I have built it and published it on my laptop running Vista Home Premium with .net 3.5 SP1 installed.I can run the setup and subsequent exe file fine on my machine but when I try it on my girlfriends netbook (one of those fiddly little things) it wont install saying that some of the files are missing. It is running XP and also has .net 3.5 SP1 on it.There are only 2 extra files in addidtion to the setup.exe that vb 2008 creates and they are the application manifest and the program icon, both of which are located with the setup.exe but it still won't install. It is an offline installation but won't run.I copied the bin folder from the project to the setup folder and tried that, still no joy, yet if I try and run the actual program directly it works?

VS 2008 - Best Way To Setup Variables
Jan 4, 2011I have a class that does four things: unzips and zips files, downloads and uploads files. It needs to complete all four actions for 9 different command line apps. Which means, unfortunately, that there needs to be 4 different strings for each time. All in all, I need to create 36 strings which are different command line arguments. I need to figure out the best way to accomplish this. Should I just create all 36 strings in the class? Or should I use a constructor? Or... properties? Maybe a structure?

View 3 RepliesVS 2008 Best Way To Setup Class?
Nov 29, 2010I have a Class that will automate processes based on a set of variables. I have a finite number of boolean variables. If True, the process will run, if False, it won't.If a variable is True, I'll add it's corresponding process to a Queue of processes.What I'd like to know, is how should I setup the processes? Should it be in the new class or form class? Should it be at class level or not?
I was thinking I could just setup each process at Class level:
VB.NET Private p1 As New ProcessPrivate p2 As New ProcessPrivate p3 As New Process
Then, before the process is added to the Queue, I'll assign the appropriate properties.
Is there a better way? Or will this work just fine?
