Visual Studio Does Not Flag Unterminated String Constant?
May 25, 2010
I noticed that if I leave off the terminating double quote for a string constant in Visual Studio 2010, there is no error or even a warning, i.e.
Dim foo as String = "hi
However, the continuous integration tool we are using flags an error:
error BC30648: String constants must end with a double quote.
Is there some language rule in VB.Net that makes a terminating double quote optional "sometimes"? Is there some setting in Visual Studio that will make it flag this as an error, so I can avoid "breaking the build" in this way?

Just got the Visual Studio 11 developer preview installed. I see a new option in the project properties called "Prefer 32-bit" when compiling a managed (C#, VB) application with the AnyCPU target specified. This doesn't appear to be an option for class libraries, just top-level apps.

I was trying to finish up a VB.NET class library project when I tried to remove all unused references. I know for a fact that I'm not explicitly using any thing from the System.Xml and System.Xml.Linq assemblies yet the "Unused References..." button never flags them for removal.In fact I even tried "Unused References..." on a blank project and it still never flagged them.

with a college assignment. We are to make a program for a school class. It is on Flags of Europe. A Picture Viewer should show a flag and the students must type what the flag is in a text box. If it is correct it must say so in a label and display the next flag. I want it to add the correct answers the student got out of 10 flags.

I was trying to create a visualizer for IDictionary or ICollection Then like the simple visualizer (without dialog; I mean the ususal string visualizer that appears when hovering the variable, see image below), I want to make my custom text, I want to cast the collection to its type's list (I.E. StringCollection to List(Of String) or List) and then I will be able to see it in the visualizer. Or for Dictionaries show to lists visualizers for keys and for values.how to implement or even how to start?This is something I thought about:
using System.Collections.Specialized;
using System.Collections;
namespace ConsoleApplication2
{
[code]....
I want to use something similar for ICollection (or IList), IDictionary etc.Note that in arrays, the visualizer shows every nested objcet.This is actually what I want to achieve:Try to visualize a List and you will see that there is a private value _items, so you can see its items. I want to achieve something similar in collection and dictionary.

I have to develop an application using MS Visual Studio 2005 or above with the following objective:
* The application should allow users to create as many new forms as they want and each form should behave like a MS Visual Studio WinForm. By saying that it should be a container for drag and drop of controls from the toolbox that I will develop....
* Once the user design's each screen to his taste by placing various controls on the form, he should be able to save the form as a screen. Of course I have to provide functionality for each of the controls such as if he drags a button on to the form, he should be able to specify what action it has to perfom when clicked when the application is put into run mode. Quite similar to regular windows form button.
* My application should have two modes: a DESIGN MODE, where user can drag, drop controls and specify what they should do when put into RUN MODE. This is quite similar to MS Visual Studio designer.
* Last but not least is to be able to access the application via the browser with the same look and feel his desktop version.

I have a Visual Basic project and when working and modifying code, the compiler will crash and then a message will say something like "Microsoft visual studio encountered a problem and was shut down." I've tried editing code from the solution and the project. Both produce the error. Usually occurs when adding an "IF...Then..." condition. May work for hours but then crash. Solution will compile and build.

I am creating a VB application in Visual Studio 2010 that installs some SQL stored procedures. These stored procedures are encrypted otherwise I would just supply my clients with .sql files to create the stored procedures.
The install script that creates the stored procedure is 1500 lines in length and has been formatted in the way VS 2010 requires multi-line literals to be in:
"First Line" & _
"Second Line" & _
"etc..."

I have strMyColor = "Red".I would like to make lblMyLabel.BackColor to be red.Without using a variable the code would be this:
lblMyLabel.BackColor=Color.Red
I tried using the variable like this: lblMyLabel.backcolor="Color." & strMyColor
But the error is that a string can't be converted to System.Draw.Color. I understand that, as the string "Color.Red" is not the same as the VB constant Color.Red.Is there a way I can construct a valid vbConstant from a string?

In a while loop, I am writing a progressively increasing integer value (between 0 and 100) to the Value attribute of a ProgressBar control, when it disappears from the window in which it resides. I have verified at the time that it disappears that the Min is 0, Max is 100, and Value is a valid integer in range.

Does anybody know which version of Visual Studio 2010 contains the full set of Visual Basic SharePoint Templates? I am about to embark on a project to create Visual Web Parts to be used in a SharePoint report.
At the moment I am using Visual Studio 2008 and even though the WSPBuilder is installed none of the relevant SharePoint templates are present.Having searched SO and the web, most advise to install the templates via the Visual Studio command prompt: devenv /installvstemplates
Alas the Visual Studio command prompt is also missing from my VS2008 installation.So, the question remains: which version of VS2010 contains what I need for pain-free SharePoint development? There is a rather large price different between VS2010 Professional and VS2010 Premium, so can anyone tell me if the cheaper version (VS2010 Professional) contains all the Sharepoint templates?

This is my first try of Visual Basic 2010 Express, though I have 10 yrs+ experience in VBA. I'm running Windows XP SP2 on a desktop pc with following installed: Visual Basic 2010 Express... just installed! SQL Server 205 Express ... been running on pc for 12 months I've created a new DB in SQL for my test application, but have not added any users or permissions to it as I'm using Windows authentication.
I've created a new Windows Forms Solution in VB2010EXP and tried adding a new Data Source for my new SQL DB, but it keeps giving error message about not having rights ot the db. 2 days of searching on the web has confirmed many others with similar issues, but no obvious solution. Eventually I find a few threads about permissions and moving the mdf into the root of the HDD, so try moving my mdf file up closer to the root of the Hard Drive msf was in C:Documents and Settings\_SharedDataApplication_DataMSSQL2005Data now in C:SQL2005Data

I am very new to Visual Studio Application Development. I'm mostly a DB guy. I used Visual Studio as a Report Designer, not much of an .Net guy though I can understand it. I am now asked to create a .net application and I'm trying to create a "Hello World" starter app. I opened my Visual Studio, click File-New Project and all I see is Business Intelligence Projects and Other Project Types. My step-by-step guide says choose Visual Basic, Windows Forms Application. But I can't see it as an option.
