Which Version Of .NET 4 Should Target
Jul 12, 2011
My VB.NET 2010 app currently targets .NET 3. I have to update it to target .NET 4 to get around some Locale / CultureInfo issues. What's the difference between .NET 4 Client Profile and the other .NET 4s I have on my machine: Extended and Multi-Targeting Pack? Which flavour of .NET 4 should I target? I want to target the flavour that the average user running Microsoft Office (Excel/Word/Outlook) out in the wild is most likely to already have. Why (on my machine) is there only a regasm.exe for v2.0.50727 and v4.0.30319? Why not a separate version for the other versions installed on my machine? (3, 3.5)

Is there any way (via code or otherwise) that you can tell what version of the .NET framework a particular EXE or DLL is targetting? I know the long way round would be to try and run it on a machine with just .NET 1.1 on, then if that doesnt work try it on a machine with 2.0 on, etc etc

I am attempting to write a program in Visual Basic Express 2010 that uses .NET Framework version 3.5 instead of 4. (The computers that I plan to use this program on only have .NET 3.5 SP1, and are painfully slow, so I don't want to upgrade them to .NET 4.)I have seen in the documentation that the Express edition does not have the option to change the target framework in the "New Project" dialog. However, when I go to the Project Properties window, there is not a drop-down list for the target framework, either.Can I change the target framework version in Visual Basic Express 2010?

I upgraded a solution with multiple projects from VS2008 to VS2010.One of the projects, a class library project, won't compile, although there are no errors in the error list.On the References tab of the project properties, the above error is displayed: "Could not resolve mscorlib for target framework '.NETFramework, Version-v4.0'.This can happen if the target framework is not installed or if the framework moniker is incorrectly formatted." .NET framework 4 v4.0.30319 is installed, and so is v3.5.All other projects build and work fine.Not all workstations experience this - some workstations can open the same solution without this problem occurring.Computers which have this problem also have VS2008 installed, and the same project compiles without issue in VS2008 on the same machine which has the problem in VS2010.

I have an desktop application that references several dlls. All are targeted for .Net 3.5, x86. The applicaiton has been deployed for several years and was upgraded from visual studion 2008 to 2010 last year. I have made several changes to the app since then (as recently as last Thursday) with out any issues. Now, everything builds, but when I run the application, I get a type initialiazer error when one of the projects is loaded by the main application.
The error messsage is {"Could not load file or assembly 'System.Drawing, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.":"System.Drawing, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a"}.
There were no changes to this project since the last successfuly deployment last week, but today I am getting this error.

How they relate and differ from each? What are the best practices for version control? Is there a primer about publish online? Or a good book?
And is it possible to make ClickOnce and a msi in one solution of VS 2008? If so, is there any conflict or pitfall?
BTW I am using VB if that makes any difference.

Is there any way to make my programs use a lower version of net.framework other than the newest version 4 that comes with VS2010?I use my programs within a closed network and there isn't an easy way for me to install any software since I'm not the administrator.

I'm trying to add functionality to my application that will disable buttons and checkboxes depending on what version the OS is when the app is launched. I made a test app to test this but unfortunately I can not get it to work. Here is my code:
'OS Check
Dim osValue As Object
osValue =
My.Computer.Registry.GetValue("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindows NTCurrent Version", "CurrentVersion", "5.2")
[Code]...
*Note - 5.2 is Windows 2003, 6.0 is Vista, 5.1 is Windows XP

I have created a license system for my application with MySql about half a year ago. What it would do is take the serial number and send it to my server if the key was correct it would return a 0 if its wrong the return value would be a 1.The problem was that when the serial number was entered correctly my program would create a "fake file" for example vb.dll in the system.And on run time my program would check for that vb.dll if the file exist it would skip my trial program and run the app as a full version. Half year later i think creating a "fake file" and checking for it on start up is extremely wrong and that's not very good security.How can i check the difference between a full version and unregistered version?

I would like my program to overwrite its previous version such that users don't have to uninstall the previous version before installing the new one.
I'm guessing it has something to do with setting Publish Version (Major, Minor, Build, Revision), Assembly Version or File Version.

I'm using the x86 target CPU setting (and .NET 2.0 as target framework if that's important) for all of my projects and components. This worked without any problems with Visual Studio 2008. My developer PC uses a x64 version of Windows 7.But now I have a new project in Visual Studio 2010 where both, the main project as well as the user control component is set to x86 target CPU, but I still get following error when I try to run my main project with the user control placed on the form:
"Could not load file or assembly 'XXX' or one of its dependencies. An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format."
This is the normal message e. g. if the main project has a target CPU of "Any CPU" and the component only "x86", but in Visual Studio 2008 it worked fine if I set both to "x86". Why this is not working in Visual Studio 2010 anymore or what I need to change that it works again?

I just installed Visual Basic Express 2010. I am doing a project at the moment for college. The project is running fine on the computers at college. But when I try to run it on my home PC I get this error message.QuoteWarning1: Possible problem detected while building assembly 'StockSYS': Referenced assembly 'Oracle.DataAccess.dll' targets a different processor..I have Googled it but when I go to the advanced compiler settings, there is no option to change the target CPU, just an option to change the target framework. I know that this has something to do with trying to run it on a 64-Bit OS. I just don't know how to change the target CPU.

I need a function which can determine the target website of a *.url file.
Currently I develop a web browser. When you drag a file onto the exe in Windows 7 or pass a URL as a parameter to it, it will open that file/website (at least attempt to). I will fix this code and make it only open files that has HTM, HTML, LNK or URL file types, maybe also some picture files and similar as well. Here is the code I currently use to detect the command line parameter:
Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
If Command() = "" Then

I am currently trying to read the target line of a shortcut file, if you were to right click and view properties of a shortcut, you can see the target line which holds the path of the file for execution. I problem is the target lines have attributes/properties at the end of the target line. The code i have atm reads everything except the most crucial part, the data after the .exe.. For example
Say i have a shortcut file whose target line(if you view properties of the file) is as such:
\adminappsVbNetSQLScriptRunner.exe AccountNumberUsage
My current program reads in this part of the target line..
\adminappsVbNetSQLScriptRunner.exe
But i need the last part, its the whole point of the program...why it stops reading when it hits the .exe or how to make it continue till end of the target line. I eventually store each target line returned into an array which ill export to excel later on.The code used to retrieve the target line is below.
Public Function GetTarget(ByVal dt As System.Data.DataTable)
Dim path(dt.Rows.Count - 1)
Dim wshLink, strPath, wshShell
Dim rc As Integer = 0
[code]....

I recently wrote a quick VB.NET app that injects a DLL into a running process. To test it I was creating my own vb.net Class Library project which simply spawns a "Hello World" message box in hopes of it showing up in the target process once I injected my HelloWorld.DLL.My problem is that the message box never shows up after I inject the HelloWorld.DLL. I'm pretty sure the reason for this is because once my HelloWorld.DLL is injected (since it's a VB.NET DLL) it does not have a DllMain and hence has no idea what to execute and nothing happens.

How would I be ables to copy the content of a directory to multiple target simultaneously, like writing on 4 usb keys at the same time. Is that even possible?
I tried divide the task with threads. I tried to create a thread with:

t.start()
but the code doesn't work, "my.computer.filesystem...." won't work.

Problem: A 2 year old solution made in VS2010 with vb .net 2.0. We are going to convert it on 4.0. So, the question is how? On a C# solution is quite simple since there is the compile tab where you can change the target framework, but here on vb net i can't find it.
Here it is what i see on project properties[URL]..
