I am a newbie coming from vb6 trying to rewrite my program in vs2010. I have a sudoku puzzle program which has 81 text boxes as input. In vb6 I used txtTextBox to reference the text boxes in an array. I have googled around and I dont seem to find any help on how to do it in 2010. Something similar which is array based would be nice.

Tomorrow, we have to submit our project for the first review.But I had created it in VS2010 ! But in our labs, we have VS2008, where this project will be copied and reviewed by our tutor.
I know, my project won't open in that system having VS2008 installed. Is there a solution to fix this issue that I'm going to face on tomorrow ?
When Visual Studio 2010 Express Edition starts , there is always a message (a splash screen or what so ever) saying : "Use of this software should be limited to evaluation purposes only" . What does this mean ? We must not share our programs (made with VS2010 Express Edition) not even when they are free ?
View 7 RepliesI'm working on a small project - a database program to track and log the progress of some experiments. I'm using VB 2010 Express, and I'm pretty much just learning as I go. I'm getting ready to learn about the data models available, and am having trouble navigating the info I find.Is it best to develop the data within the SQL CE environment, or does that require the end-user to download additional libraries/programs? Is there a better data model for my needs (not much complex data processing, but a sizable amount of records/tables)?

View 1 RepliesIs there a straightforward way to make a copy of a VB.NET solution and continue the project in another direction? I'd think this is a common problem but haven't been able to find an easy solution. Copying the files and renaming seems messy to me. Does the VS IDE provide anything like this? Update: It's a small project on my home computer so I'm currently not using source control. I wasn't expecting to need to fork or anything. Is there a way I can do this without setting up git or similar?
View 2 Repliesi recently received a new work pc and have installed visual studio 2010 premium on it. this was installed on my old machine as well, the only differece between the two PCs being my old one was 32bit and the new one is 64bit.With that said, when i create a windows form project and drop a control on a form, double click that control, the default event code is created for me.It is missing the "ByVal" portion of the code. Using a textbox as an example, below is the code it generates. Is there a setting that I'm just missing and need to turn on? I've been using visual studio since version 2005 and i've never seen this before.
Private Sub TextBox1_TextChanged(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.TextChanged
End Sub
This is a followup to this thread, where I'm trying to draw two sets of dots using HatchBrushes to create VS2010-like interface. If you take a look at the zoomed image of the IDE background (blue with dark and light blue dots): that is what I'm trying to draw using GDI+. In the previous thread ForumAccount find the correct HashStyle to use (Percent20), but there is a problem: I need to draw two sets of these hatchstyles: once with a slightly darker color and once with a slightly lighter color, at an offset of one pixel downwards.

View 6 RepliesI cannot load my solution which includes a .RPTPROJ for the reports development.
The .RPTPROJ project is not recognized.Does anyone know why? And please don't say "It doesn't because it is not supported".
If it is not then Why?Are we to wait for the next SQL release? Isnt there a plugin to support .rptproj?
Apparently i need to run vs2005 (or 2008) to support the reports while running vs2010 for program development.
Is there already a plugin or patch? Does vs 2010 (vb.net) support the report viewer object?
Does vs 2010 (vb.net) even support .rdl files?

View 4 RepliesI am trying to create a UserControl in VB.net, under VS2010. I have the code for the UserControl and I would like to add it to a form. My problem is that, according to every book and forum I have seen, after I build the UserControl, it should show up in the Toolbox. It doesn't. I even downloaded code from a book, the code executes perfectly, but their TrafficLight control doesn't go in the Toolbox (even though the book says it should - and that the only way to set its properties and to add it to the form is through the Control properties). I have tried to add the control to the form manually, by declaring it
Dim myObj As New SomeClass.SomeControl
and in the Designer.vb, identical with the buttons on the form:
Friend WithEvents myObj As SomeClass.SomeControl
With both, I get an error saying
'myObj' is already declared as 'Friend WithEvents myObj As SomeControl' in this class.
And either way, I get an error when I try to look at the design:
Could not find type 'SomeClass.SomeControl'. make sure that the assembly that contains this type is referenced. If this type is part of your development project, make sure the project has been successfully built using settings for your current platform or AnyCPU.
The control by itself builds and shows up in design view (not in the Toolbox though, even though it Imports System.ComponentModel and Inherits System.Windows.Forms.UserControl and... what else ? I tried to build it in a separate project, to see if I creating a separate dll will make a difference, though I really want it in the same project.
Just in case, I missed anything. As far as the google result, I don't see a capability to develop iPhone app using VS2010 (sorry, maybe I shouldn't ask this question here). right? Or, is there a way to write the code in VS, and then using some sort of converter...
View 10 RepliesI know that there are millions of posts about this already but I cant seem to find one that mirrors my issue. I am using VS2010 and want to automate excel and I'm trying to work through the example here.
MS Tutorial The problem is when I go to add the reference as mentioned 3.Add a reference to the Microsoft Excel Object Library. To do this, follow these steps: -On the Project menu, click Add Reference. -On the COM tab, locate Microsoft Excel Object Library, and click Select.There is no such reference available.
know if this is the right way to automate excel with VS2010.If it is could someone please let me know why I dont have the COM option for excel. im wanting to write in VB.net but if someone has an example in C# that would be fine. I have tried implementing automation using the Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application dll but i get the following exception when I try to create the excel application.
This line generates the error. EXL = New Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application()This is the exception

Is it possible to install it as a virtual application?
At work I have a 5 screen setup for programming applications etc. I need that many screens becouse I usually program HMI devices that consist of many screens.Ofcourse with the arival of VS2010 and some real multiscreen support I coudn't be happier. I mean actually programming with 5 screens! That would be some awesome multitasking.Unfortunatly that dream was quickly crushed to dust. After installing the VB 2010 Express edition to test it out I started it up and all 5 screens started to bug / flicker / change resolution... and never stops doing that, so I must reboot to recover from that bug. If I reduce the number of screens back to just two then everything works again. Add a third screen and the whole party starts over again.
Now this might be just a problem of the graphical devices that I use (Kensington USB graphics adapters) whom do not support any form of graphics accelleration... Then again, just one adapter does work fine so that actually shouldn't be the problem. I wonder if anyone else has managed to start up VS2010 with more then 2 screens? For now i'll stick to VS2008 as that doesn't bugs out with more then 2 screens, eventhough it doesn't have multiscreen support.
rightclicking on a webreference in your projekt gives the possibility to update the webreference, why does the reference section doesnt have such a utility
