VS 2010 - Applications Made Using VB 2010 Express Expire After Some Time?
Nov 3, 2011
Here are my questions concerning VB 2010 Express:
1. I've registered my VB 2010 Express, will it still expire?
2. Will the applications I made using VB 2010 Express expire after some time?
3. Is it OK to write my code in the designer.vb file? I don't know why, but when I started writing my application it took me to the designer.vb instead of form1.vb code.
4. I've been working on an application for a week now, but suddenly I can no longer access my Design View(Shift-F7). All my codes are written on the [form name].Designer.vb. I can still view my codes but I cant access my form layout. On the solution explorer, my forms no longer have the 'form icon'. When i press Shift-F7 nothing happens. Right-clicking the form on the solution explorer doesn't show 'View Designer' option. How can I fix this?

I have found a tutorial that will teach me how to set up my first Database, but the first thing it tells me to do is right-click on the Data Connections Icon within Database Explorer and choose "Create New SQL Server Database" ... unfortunately, this option is greyed out, so I am assuming I have to choose "Add Connection" first ...[code]...

I am having a really hard time with the hour(TimeOfDay) VB Express 2010 command, is there any one reading this that could enlighten me on this problem please.My local machine time is in standard time, but the VB hour(TimeOfDay) command sent to a text box on my form is in Military time, is this a bug or do I need to use another command that I am not aware of, or can I use the format command to force it to
standard time and if so how do I accomplish this task please as I have battled with this for few weeks now and I am all out of ideas as to the nature of the problem.
I know about the following:-format(TimeOfDay,"h:mm:ss") 'displays time in standard time with out a padded zero format(TimeOfDay,"hh:mm:ss") 'displays time in standard time including a padded zero!
format(TimeOfDay,"H:mm:ss") 'displays time in military time with out the padded zero!
format(TimeOfDay, "HH:mm:ss) 'displays time in military time including the padded zero!
how could I do the same with the format(Hour(TimeOfDay),"?") function I also notice that the minutes and seconds can include or exclude the padded zero, I would also like to have control over these two commands please.

I have VB Express and I need to make my sofware expire on a certain date. I do not want it like a trial period, I want every edition of the software to expire at the same time (15/02/12). I also do not want the software to be tricked if the system clock is put back so it needs to store the date the software is first launched and calculate the diference so it knows the true date. When the software has expired I need a message box to open, with a yes and no button. If the user clicks the yes button an IE window opens to my channel on youtube and if they click no the program exits. I have tried everything but I can't work it out.

I am trying to make a user account SQL database work with Visual Basic 2008 Express for login purposes, i.e. usernames & passwords. Plan is to host this server so people can login to use the the application and verify they have a valid account. I would like to host all the account information in SQL due to the possiblity of hundreds of users at any given time. I also need the ability to add data to the database for users registering for the first time. The SQL server will need to be able to access the SQL Server databases remote via WAN.

Initially my app worked with excel fine, now it causes my computer to reboot only after Excel has been opened (two or more times). I have opened and closed Excel files 20+ times without running thru either of my apps (they all uses identical code for excel) and it has never caused a reboot or a crash.
run either of my apps and have the app control excel has become a crap shoot, it will reboot my computer. Adding to that I then have to do a manual shutdown because the reboot process after is unstable. (System doesn't respond properly). My code in this app is small, should make for a good example. I can provide the entire project to anyone who would volunteer to test it. (First I need to know how to send the project).

I have looked through couple of threads about making the trial application to be expired within certain time. Most of the advice is to set a timer and store it in somewhere in the system with encrytion. Then later decrypt and compare with the date installed in the system.

If I create a DLL using VB 2010 express can it be used by previous versions of of .Net (3.5, 2.0)? Will the DLL use .Net 4.0 components, which is what I want. I don't see a way to force that to be the case.

this is my very first posting and I must say I am desperate. I have a VB assignment due in 2 days and I am so lost. I have written a code to draw some graphic, just a basic house, tree, sun etc. I have also written a code to magnify said graphics which were all the specifications of my Assignment 1 part A. Now for Part B I am being asked to extend my program so that: A - My graphic can be drawn using different colour schemes designed by me but chosen by the user B - My graphic or an appropriate part of it can be animated around the picture box if the user chooses to do so. C - Error checking is included.

I am learning VB for the moment. I want to copy/paste code from a PDF to Visual Basic 2010 Exppress, but if i paste the (structured in PDF) code to VB, i get 1 long string of code and need to restructure it by entering after each line. Otherwise VB gives me a lot of errors. This is a time consuming work. Isn't there a way, VB puts the code in the right format?

I tried to start using VB 2010 Express with a program I originally developed with VB 2005 Express that I moved to VB 2008 Express successfully a couple years ago. It uses a database file (*.mdf) that is on the computer ( not out on a server). When attempt to run the program in debug mode, I get the following error "An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file C:Documents and SettingsTomMy DocumentsQuizzing StuffQuestion Database 2010QuizQuest ionGameQuizQuestionGameinReleaseQuizQuestionDB.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share."
I first made a copy of the entire project folder that was working in VB 2008 Express and gave it a different name. In VB2010 I opened the project in the copied folder and it said it successfully converted the project. I am able to open the Data Source inthe Designer and see the database structure as I expect. I think the project is still using SQL Server 2005 Express (because it is what is checked in the list of prerequisites on the Publish tab).
Note, I have programmed off and on for many years, but fairly new to using databases and SQL Server.

I am trying to re write a VB6 program using MS Access, many years ago, using VB 2010 express and SQL server 2008 R2 Express. I have a database with several tables, which I created using the designer. I am able to connect to the database and select data and display it in textboxes etc in vb code. What I have not been able to in code is to INSERT rows DELETE rows or UPDATE any data in the tables. I can do any of these operations using the Query Designer, but I want to do it in code. I can post some code if necessiary, but I thought it might just be some property that I had not set in the designer.

Is VB Express 2010 slower to compile and run that older versions of VB Express? I've installed it this weekend and it seems a little sluggish on my quad core computer with 1 gig of RAM. I have VB Express 2005 installed for my students at school and it seems to fly just fine. Those school computers are older P4s with 512k of RAM.

I have a DGV bound to a data adapter. I have a button that loads a form with a reference to the DGV row. When the form is loaded, it has a TextBox to type a value, that modifies one of the cells of the row. When the form closes, the cell.value is properly modified, but saving the DGV doesn't save the new value of the cell to the DB table. I'm assuming this happens because the DGV hasn't had physical interaction. Also, this particular field is a password field, so the whole column is being hidden from the view.It seems that a DGV change is noted by physically clicking in a cell and it stores some data telling the adapter there have been changes. The thing is, this is done on a per cell basis, and only if the cell has been clicked. Well, this cell is hidden, so even though the value will be changed, you could never click or select that cell.Is there any other way to force the DGV to accept changes made to it from outside actions of just assigning the cell.value from a button click and not phsyically changing it in the DGV?

I'm making a video editor program and I'm getting kinda stumped at the save portion, I've worked with openfiledialog so I figured save would be sorta the same. What I'm doing is adding files(music,videos, and pics) to a flowlayoutpanel. I just don't know how to save those controls made at runtime, this code is my import code. It's pretty much the same for music, video and pics with the exception being the format and openfiledialog being used:
