View 2 RepliesI did a search on the internet but came up with very limited results. I'm using asp/vb and need to create a n application that does the following steps:
1. User defines web service URLs to WSDL pages .. populated in combo drop down (already coded)
2. User selects web service - Clicks Connect
3. User is prompted for any input fields the web service requests.
4. Output (in XML) is displayed after input fields are populated.
I know how to reference web services in the development environment, and use them... but have no idea how to dynamically create them and show the input fields requested.
I am porting an app from VB6 and I run into problems with references to functions and subs. Basically, let's say I have 2 classes added to the project, like this.
Public Class OOOOO
Public Shared Sub BBBBBBB(ByVal FileName As String)
...
Call CCCCCC()
Call DDDDDD()
etc.
...
End Sub
[Code] .....
I had to make the BBBB() shared to be able to call it from another function AAAAAA() from another class PPPPP. However, I get error on the references in the BBBBB(), that CCCC() and DDDD() have to be made also shared (so instead of 1 error I got number of errors).
When I tried to make them shared as well, I got tens and tens of errors due to other references of both variables and functions.
Currently I have a need to reference a class library dll that is not located in the same directory as the exe nor its subdirectories. Can anyone point me in the right direction on this? Are there any good articles or tutorials on it? I have been looking through my .Net books and some go into details in a different direction and none that I have seem to cover it. To be honest, if theres a nice tutorial or article on this topic with sample code to look at, that would be ideal at this point in my project (Im literally presenting on it twice tomorrow).
I have to admit that Im fairly ignorant of this topic, but its my understanding that I should be able to accomplish this using the assemblyBinding elements in the application configuration. If I do use a codebase approach with the app config, am I suppose to do something in the exe code to read the config and load? The class library that Im refrencing am I supposed to have any special methods or classes in it to make this work? I think I have more questions than answers.
If you want more of the nitty-gritty details on the current scenario, here it is:
I have an executable Ive developed (well call this myApp.exe). I also have a centralized data-accessing class library (well call this appData.dll). This exe actually utilizes a framework Ive designed to run from within a third-party companys application. To ensure the myApp.exe is more maintainable and accessible, it will be located separately from the framework.dll and the appData.dll. The framework.dll will most likely reside in the same directory as the third-party exe, but separate from the appData.dll and myApp.exe. So I was considering applying the assemblyBinding elements in the application configuration files for the myApp.exe pointing toward the framework.dll and the appData.dll while that for the framework.dll will be pointing toward the appData.dll (this is why the data access library file is central between the two).
I have a copy of the Bible in txt format which I need to have altered. I wish to put the book name, the chapter number and a colon at the beginning of each verse, just before the verse number. The book name and chapter number can be obtained from the beginning of each chapter and each verse within each chapter is already numbered and on a separate line in the file.

View 3 RepliesI have several sets of similar objects (labels, progress bars) on a form in Visual Basic 2010 on Windows. In my code, I have collections that contain data, which needs to be pushed into the value/text property of each.
I would like to get a solution similar to PHP in that I can assign values somewhat like:
For ID as Integer from 0 to count(collectionExample)
lblExample{ID}.Text=collectionExample(variableID)
...and as such to loop through so each of the different lblExample's were updated to their corresponding value.
The issue I have come to is that I cannot seem to reference an object on the form using a variable. I have also tried using something like
CallByName("lblExample" + variableID, "Text", CallType.Set, exampleCollection(variableID))... however I still can't combine the string and variable to reference the object.
Any solutions on referring to objects in VB2010 by combining a string prefix and a variable string identifier, similar to PHP's $variable{$variable} approach?

Say I have a Framework 4.0 project that is referencing a class library targeting 3.5. The project will simply not build. It won't give me any valid error message it will just act as though the reference does not exist.
Projects that were working like this in Visual Studio 2008 are no longer working in 2010. Took me forever to figure out what there error is. If I remove the project reference and add it back the intellisense lights up and you can tell a variable referenced in the class library is found. But as soon as you build the project everything is lost. My using statements get underlined, references to the variable all turn grey and project fails to build saying the class cannot be found. Once I make the class library 4.0 as well everything builds. I get the same issue between 4.0 client profile and 4.0 as well.
Some example or idea about how to get the location of some IP address.
Example: 187.72.136.139 = Brazil
Is it possible to add a new Trusted Location for word 2010 using VB.Net?
I want to do the same steps in the below link via code, is that possible ?[URL]..
So I'm working on an app that needs to create files on the end user's computer to store info in (mainly text files and HTML files), and I'm trying to figure out the best location to write these files to. I've been reading various articles @ this online all afternoon, and the advice I've read so far seems to be "all over the place".From what I understand, if the end user is not logged into Windows as "admin", then there are a limited number of locations where files can be written to their computer, without them having to deal with UAC popups, etc.I would like my end-user's to have to jump through as few hoops as possible (none, preferably ), so should I only write my files to these specific locations? when I write the files to the end-user's computer, I have 2 different types of info that needs to be stored...
Info "A" is temporary data that only needs to be stored/accessed while the end user has my program open (and this data can be safely deleted each time they close my program).Info "B" needs to be stored somewhere where it never gets deleted, so that it can be accessed by my program for as long as the end-user has my program installed on their computer.So would it be best to store info "A" in the Temp folder, and info "B" in the App Data folder?And for any files that I store in the "temp" folder, do these files get automatically deleted when the end-user turns off their computer, or do I have to programatically delete these files every time my program exits?
Using either one by itself works fine but if I use both then it behaves strange.It will Maximize just fine but when I click the Maximize button again to take it back to the original size it resizes the window to the original but then immediately resizes it back to the smaller size location. So I end up with a window whose upper left corner is where it belongs but the window size is the same as if it was maximized.

View 23 RepliesIs it possible to check a location for a file and if a file exists then create a new file (+1) in the file name? For example if there is no test file in the C:Temp folder then create a test.txt file and if there is one there then create C:Temp est1.txt and if there is a C:Temp est1.txt file then create C:Temp est2.txt and so on?
I was thinking
If Not IO.File.Exists("C:Temp est.txt") Then
IO.File.WriteAllLines("C:Temp est.txt" + 1, vbCrLf)
End If

View 1 RepliesIn the past I have written VB6 and VB NET 2005 programs that are installed and on the user's computer. This had to be done because the salesmen in our company have has a set of local data on their laptops so that they could do work and not be connected to our network. I would then sync the files when they connected to the network. (This same program is used by the rest of the company as well, but everyone else uses network data.)We are now at the point where we are not using any local data. Our salesmen access our network data using an iPad, VPN, and a Citrix server, which works fine

I have 2 group box components and both are same size,font,location and visible is false. When i click button2, the groupbox1 won't appear(the group box2 is on bottom n group box1 is on top).
Example:
button1
groupbox1.visible=false
groupbox2.visible=true
button2
groupbox1.visible=true
groupbox2.visible=false
Because i want to show the different,so the location have a little different(actually both are same location). I think my code is no problem. The problem i guess is both component cannot locate at same location?

"You cannot start application <App_Name> from this location because it is already installed from a different location."
then they run it up again and it comes up.. and then just closes..in reading some stuff online it says its a framework 2.0 sp 1 issue ?these pc's have 3.5, but my program uses all 2.0 stuff..so is this a 2.0 sp level issue ? or should I make my programs start to use framework 3.0 instead ?
