VS 2010 Add File AS LINK To An Project?
Aug 29, 2010
I was able to add a file as-link to an project, as you can see in the image:see the difference in the icon for files added as-link and files added as"normal"but now don't remember how to add a file as link, or if this was because some add-in.I've vs2010 installed in both desktop and laptop, the same of a few coworkers, and I like to have several general file (used as links) in different folders as the project folders.
anyway don't sure of as-link or normal are important in an project.the only difference I've noted is that link files can't be edited when in debug.basically I'm thinking in add as-link the files that are shared/used in several projects, as general modules or classes that have functions or subs intended to be as shared.

I'm using visual basic 2010 express..I'm building my own web browser and want to add a download manager.I have been able to build one that will download a file if I type the file location into a text box.What I'm trying to figure out is how to have the download manager open when I click on a download link on a web page.How to make the download manager know it is a link to a downloadable file as opposed to something like a link to another webpage?

I have a vb.net project that has 2 exe's that get built as well as the installer. The two exe's share a bunch of common files. I do not want to have two copies of the common files or mess around with having build events that copy things around (if possible).
My method was to create two projects in the same folder and have them point to the files they needed. This appeared to work until I tried to compile both apps at which point I get an error in a file called Application. Designer.vb. It seems that project files create this file in their folder and when I have two solutions in the same folder they conflict. So my next effort was to create the second project in it's own folder and just add the items as needed. The problem here is that VS2010 doesn't hold a link to a file in a different folder it copies the file to the new project folder. What is the vs2010 way to get this done?

I 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.

I want to read a VB or C# Visual Studio project file so I can find out which files the project uses (code source files, not images or whatever).I simply opened a vbproj and csproj file in notepad and found that they are in XML format. A simple example follows. The red parts is what I need:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Project ToolsVersion="4.0" DefaultTargets="Build" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">
<PropertyGroup>
<blabla... />
[code]....
However, it seems it cannot even find the Project element, because the query errors saying "Sequence contains no elements" on the 'Single' call...

Is it possible to create a custom start menu shortcut link?
The only possibilities I see in the setup project are shortcuts to folders or primary output.
Update:
What I ended up doing is creating a custom action on commit that dynamically creates the link using Windows Scripting Host. Then on uninstall, removing the link.

Has anyone else had issues with Visual Basic 2010?My visual basic program has been running fine for months but recently every time I try and load a project (any project) the program freezes, then I have to close it down and reload, every time I load Visual basic for the second time I get the following error:
HTML
An error was encountered while opening associated documents the last time this solution was loaded. Document load is being skipped during this solution load in order to avoid that error.Plus when trying to run a project in debug it takes ages to load (around 5 minutes) this has only started happening recently, projects were loading in seconds.

A colleague has written a useful tool. He wrote it as a standalone tool, but it works even better as an includable dll, though it needs a bit of other functionality for it to be a really good drop-in component. What I am wondering is whether a project can be compiled as both an exe and as a dll?
There are alternatives, such as having a dll version and an exe version, since the dll version needs to include a few different methods that the exe version doesn't need, but this alternative sucks, since it would mean changing two sets of code.
Another alternative is to build the dll, then change the exe to be a project that references the dll....and does nothing other than calling one method in the dll. That kind of sucks, too, but not as bad.
I want to be able to use his module in some of my programs, and it really should be built as a component rather than a standalone app, but I want to know whether there are other options that I haven't considered.

I'm looking for a way to (easily, by preference ;)) create a download link to a file on a separate file server.The situation is as follows: the application I'm developing (asp.net 2.0 in vb.net but I have a similar issue in c#, either solution works for me) will be run internally for a company.As is good practice, the file storage and web application are on two separate servers.I basically need to be able to create a download link to a file, the only available URL i have to access the file is servernamefolder1folder2folder3file.txt (can be any sort of file)[code]Which doesn't work for obvious reasons. It used to be set up to write that file to the application path itself and that worked perfectly, but it isn't good practice and that's why I'm changing it (or trying to).I read solutions about creating a download page and then having a table in your DB which holds the links and returns the proper web URL for download but the time constraint I am faced with unfortunately doesn't allow me to develop that.
Assuming I can provide a string with the full filepath to the file like the above, what is the easiest way to just create a link that, when clicked, downloads the document? I have 0 admin rights in this environment. That really isn't helping me. Let's assume I am given the correct link like above and have the appropriate file access rights and such.The above example does work in IE, but not in Firefox and Chrome. IE converts it to a file://servername/... link which does what it's supposed to, but FF and Chrome both actively decided that this is unsafe and have disabled it from their browsers.

I am trying to automate file downloads. Sometimes I get to a webpage that has a file link to download a file, but it is not a direct link. Instead it is a PHP request on the server side, for the file.
Is it possible to automate this using the webbrowser control, or is there another way I can do this using VB .NET?

I want to make a code that let you make a google.com/url etc. link with the users link in it (their input). When they click Button1, after a few seconds the text in TextBox2 is their own link with a valid google.com/url hash etc. I've managed to come this far:When I delete the timers and click on the button and manually on the link in the WebBrowser, it will work. But when I add timers and stuff, it will not click the link in the WebBrowser. And when 1 timer is done, TextBox1.Text displays about:blank

I have established how to use the click once system to include multiple project's exe's in a SINGLE click once deployment.
Now, with that said, it just adds the secondary project's exe(and its required files) to the install directory. Cool.
BUT, to avoid making a button that says 'Run Program 2' in Program 1's screen, does anyone know of a hack/mod to add another link to the start menu's folder?
So it'll show, Support for 'Project 1', Project 1, then add the link for Project 2?

I have two string lists in VB.NET 2010, one with questions and one with answers:
questionlist.Add("When shall we meet?")
questionlist.Add("Let's meet at eight")
questionlist.Add("Shall we meet in front of the bar?")
[Code]....
When a button is clicked the program will check if the answer matches the answer in the list. The problem is that I need it to pick the corresponding entry from the answer list to check if the answer is correct. How can I do this?
