I am taking an Intro to Visual Basic class right now. When we do homework, we have to take it into class and put it into a folder that our professor has.When I save it onto my hard drive and I open it from Documents/Visual Studio 2010/Projects/HW Assignment 1, it opens everything perfectly. But on my flash drive, I have the same set up (E:/Homework Assignment 1) and I am not missing any files. But when I double click on the .sln file, it just seems to open the program without my project (display or code) showing.
It is saved on my desktop for easy access.I can close the program. I can click the solution to open it right back up, no problems.I then zip my file (also to the desktop)
My problem: I moved the original file (Project A) to another folder and extracted the unzipped Project A onto the desktop. When I open the new Project A's solution file, nothing happens besides VB starting up. It doesn't show me anything.
I am having Beta Testers go through my program. For some reason, the help file doesn't open but crashes the program. But it is in the program folder... I'm not sure why it is having a problem finding it.I created a try catch format because it seemed to have a problem at one point between looking in the 32 bit program folder or the 64 bit even though the program itself is in 64 bit...[code].....
I am having a problem with visual studios 2010. I am creating ASP.net pages, but when I test/debug my code, the code-behind files runs the same code that was run the first time it was debuged this session. Meaning, to test new code-lines, I have to restart Visual Studio altogether?
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?
im making a simple program that will copy a single file. im trying to get the name of the file that i selected in the open file dialog but i get the location and file name (C:Users****Documents est est.txt) im trying to just get (test.txt)
When i try to open the file in Visual Basics 2008 it says: "The selected file is a solution file, but was created by a newer version of this application and cannot be opened"

I have custom .ini file named Config.iniHow to make when they start the program and click the button to open the file that they have located in the .ini fileI have 3 buttons:
would it be possible to check if any notepad or word file is open that contains the word 'test'?I was thinking something like the following.
Dim Process() As Process = System.Diagnostics.Process.GetProcessesByName("notepad") Dim Process2() As Process = System.Diagnostics.Process.GetProcessesByName("word") For Each p As Process In Process If p.MainWindowTitle.Contains("test") Then
New to vb.net and this forum I have a excel file that I have added to my "resources" in vb.net (Visual Studio 2010). I want to create a button on a form to open the file located in my resources.
I'm trying to open a file with no extension (to be specific, the Hosts file in c:windowssystem32driversetc) so the user can review it. However, it cannot be opened. When I try to start the program with Notepad for example:
My question is a rather simple one and to be honest with you, I am not sure if it can be done. Lets say I have a mutli-line text box, is it possible, and if so how would I go about making it so if I clicked Open with > editor I could do things with this text, such as TextBox.text = [file contents]. If it's not possible just let me know and I'll stick with open file dialogs.
how to load a image in other extension? for example I have other program that contain an Image, when I browse with my program, it's only show the Image only...
Public filecode As String Public Sub getfile(ByVal filename As String) Dim objReader As StreamReader
But I keep getting the filenotfound exception.
I replaced the file source with the actual location of the file and got the same error. I also checked the permissions of the application to allow sharing and remove read only properties.
Not sure this is a VS specific question - the answer is probably more os related (xp, vista, win7...)But at any rate - how could I go about detecting all the files that are opened while a machine is up and and running??
I am currently making a game with multiple levels when you complete one level the form hides and shows the form for the next level. But the keydown event doesnt work on the second level. How can I make it work?
I open a word document in webbrower, but some File Download dialog box opens up with three buttons Open, Save and Cancel. I always wants to open the document directly instead to click on open button.
My question is as follows: The user has clicked File>Open in Notepad and also clicked on a file/folder. My Application in VB.NET needs to know the path and filename of the selected file/folder before the user selects the OK button of the Open Dialog box. How can I do this with VB.NET (VS2010).
I have searched, but failed to find a suitable answer to this. My small app saves a text file using a savefiledialog and stream writer. Then if successful, displays a messagebox confirming sucess and asks if the user wants to open the text file now. and this is the problem... How do I determine if the user has changed the filename and or path in the savefiledialog when saving? I'd prefer not to hard code a path and file name if possible.... but that seems like the only option? and therefore I can't show the file straight after saving reliably??
Basically my script doesn't properly close Word, and it still remains open. Then when I try to run the script again it says its Read-only as its opened..What I need it to do is - put the TextBox1 info onto the DOC - and print it. I don't want it to save, as it's a template. I've tried saving it somewhere else as a "temp" to get rid of this read only but it still doesn't work.Another issue also is that it's trying to close the document before the printing dialog disappears, so I've had to put a timer
Public Class Form1 Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Dim pName As String[code]....

Okay so here's the question how do I get the links that open in a new window to open in my main webbrowser control. The above code does some, but it's not fool proof.
Whether I am using VB 2008 Express or VS 2010 Beta 1 Visual Basic, I get the same error: "Debugging information for 'EXCEL.EXE" cannot be found or does not match. Cannot find or open the PDB file" I have filled in the Debug Tab information: Start external program: C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice12Excel.exe
Why would a .sln solution file open and appear empty in Microsoft Visual Basic 2010 Express - i.e. no windows showing projects and code files etc.When I inspect the file in a text editor, it contains references to vbproj files (which are present) which indicate that it should not appear as empty.No error messages are reported when the file is opened.
I would like to open the excel file after create the excel file. The creating file function is done, but the system unable to open the excel file. My coding as below:
