Sharing Applicaiton Settings Across Many Applications?

View 7 RepliesSharing Application Settings Across Many Applications?
Apr 28, 2011I have several different applicaitons that were originally created with Visual Studio 2005 / .net framework 2.0 / Windows XP that got common settings from an App.Config file on a network share. Each of these applications has an app.config file with the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
<appSettings file="\fileServerconfigcommon.app.config" >
</appSettings>
</configuration>
I am now trying to make these applications work in a Windows 7 / .net framework 3.5 / Visual Studio 2008 environment and can't seem to access the settings in \fileServerconfigcommon.app.config in the same way the old environment allowed. I'm wondering if there is some new way to do this. I need to have the applications read their settings from a common file on the network share (having the applications take their own copy is not accpetable).

View 3 RepliesPrompting Before Saving Settings?
Nov 3, 2010I need to have my application to prompt the user to see if he wants to save the settings or not before the application exits.I got this to work this way: I added an event handler to My.Application.Shutdown. This event handler does prompt the user and save the settings if the user answers "Yes".But in order to stop the application to save the settings anyway via its regular way, I have to set My.Application.SaveMySettingsOnExit to falseAs I said, it works, but it just look like a bad logic to set SaveMySettingsOnExit to false to have it to save the settings saved on exit with a prompt.
My question is: is there a way to get it work like this:
-SaveMySettingsOnExit =true -- PromptBeforeSave =True ( Save and Prompt)
-SaveMySettingsOnExit =true -- PromptBeforeSave =false ( Save and no Prompt)

Studio Not Saving Settings
Aug 2, 2009I recently noticed that exceptions were not getting caught by Visual Studio (I'm using VS 2008 Standard) - e.g I could do this and run the program[code]...
and the debugger would not kick in and tell me something had gone wrong, the program would just continue running as normal.I remembered someone on here helping me fix this a while ago by pressing Ctrl + Alt + E to bring up the exception handling settings, so I did that again and ticked the Common Runtime Language exceptions box (Throw) and then all worked fine again.The problem is, this setting does not seem to be getting saved - each time I restart VS I have to set it again, which is annoying to say the least... especially when I forget and then get confused when my program isnt working properly.

Way Of Saving Control Settings?
Sep 23, 2010I'm writing a search tool. Setting the search parameters requires adjusting the values of over 70 different controls on my form.I want to make a list of saved searches. Is there an easy way to do so? Does VB have any built in features to save and load the current values of every control on the form?I could code it by hand. But this would be tedious, especially up to 15 listboxes, where I would need to save each item in the list and note whether they are checked or not. I really hope VB has a way of saving the entire form at once.

Saving 2-dimensional Arrays To Settings?
Jun 30, 2011I have two different 2-dimensional arrays. I assume the setting i need to save them to is a string setting, as is the cast with regular integer arrays. The first 2-d array I need to save is an integer, the second a decimal.
Let's say the settings are called my.settings.2darray1 and my.settings.2darray2
Let's also say the arrays are:
vb
dim 2darray1(50, 99) as integer dim 2darray2(50, 99) as decimal
What would the code be to load each array and save each array?
