View 2 RepliesI am running into problems with my compiled .exe on other machines. On some computers it works, on others it doesn't (all using Windows XP with the .NET framework installed). When I run the .exe on some computers it crashes right away and hits the 'Send error report' dialog. On others it runs just fine. I'm pretty sure this has to do with missing components, but how can I fix it so it works for all computers? How do I find out which components are missing?

In Visual Basic 6:
[var = ] Point(X,Y) would retrieve the Color in Long from an Individual Point on a Form or Picture Box.
Components(TextBox, etc) were indexable into an array under one name.
Is there any manner to do any of this in Visual Basic Express? (I have the 2005 Edition.)

I'm just using the default SQL Server Express in my vb 2008 express edition as my database server for my database operation. When I tried to update the records on my table I got a runtime error which indicates the error on this line 'myCommand.ExecuteNonQuery()'and it highlights a yellow background on it. The runtime error says "SqlException was unhandled: An expression of non-boolean type specified in a context where a condition is expected, near 'Number'. ".

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.

View 5 RepliesI'm quite new to VB Programming and I'm using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 for programming. I'm writing an application that communicates with an Omron PLC via CX-Server Lite which brings some ActiveX plugins for VB. So far I solved a couple of problems and my application "is doing something" already.My question in the end might be really easy. I inserted 3 bitlamps (Omron ActiveX Components) in a form, gave them the size and position I wanted them to have. When I now start my application they show up in the wrong size. It seems as if they would keep there position but they simply have the wrong size and even overlap each others although I have them sorted nicely in Visual Studio.Another effect I have is, sometimes when I move the components around on the Form in Visual Studio they seem to be "behind" the Form. I can't see them anymore but i can highlight and move them.

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.
