I am an end user of a VB based program and our windows 95 based machines are dying of old age. Before getting my boss to agree to my trying out a newer machine I would like to know if there is any chance of getting this program to run.
I know that I need to be able to drive 3 serial (485 / 422/ 232) ports one of which is on an ISA bus and the other 2 are located internally on the motherboard. Another factor in trying to do this is the drivers are missing for the 485 card and I hoped
to be able to locate newer drivers easier.I think the VB code was created under VB3, but we do not have the expertise / tools to be able to disassemble the .exe file.
I just finished coding a small app which access the Outlook 2007 Inbox. On my dev machine, it works OK. I created a new machine in VMWare using WinXP, Dot.Net 3.5 and Office 2007 installed and Outlook configured to my GMail account.I copied the BIN folder of my project to the new machine and ran the app and it runs OK until it scans all emails in the Inbox. This is where I get the exception:[code]When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exceptionwill be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computerrather than be handled by this dialog box.Can anyone suggest why my code can not see the Outlook 12 assembly? Do I have to create an installer file for my app before copying it to the test machine?
Here's the situation - I have a vb.net exe compiled for X86 machines using 2 dll's... Because one of the dll's was only provided in 32 bit, and I didn't want to have to deal with 32/64 versions, I forced 32 bit in compile options and everything was fine. Now I have a 64 bit workstation that is throwing an error about the sqlite.dll (error #1 below).
after reading around I am starting to understand a lot of people are having this issue. I tried replacing the dll on the client machine with the 64 bit version of sqlite and that didn't work (error #2). I read somewhere that the 64 bit version requires VC 2010 redistro, but that didn't work. I can't compile this app as a 64 bit because of the other dll is 32 bit.
my app interacts with excel. im running office2007 on my dev machine but the target machine running office2010.i had this problem before where i had to remove office12, install 11 and recompile the project to get it to work on the clients machine, adding multiple references didn't help. is there a work around, or a library that works with any excel version.
I have made an application using VB.NET which is used inhouse. In order to avoid everytime changing of exe on user's (multiple user) machine I want to use shortcut of exe on user's machine.
Where EXE is placed in one central location(Server).
I am getting bellow error on user's machine :
Request for the permission of type 'System.Data.Odbc.OdbcPermission, System.Data, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed.
Error after clicking on ok button:
Application attempted to perform not allowed by the security policy.Togrant this application the required permission,contact your system administrator,or use the Microsoft .NET Framework Configuration tool.
I have developed a 32-bit VB.NET application that runs fine on 32-bit systems. Some of the folks in engineering, however, are using 64-bit machines, so we have created 32-bit virtual PCs and installed the application on the Virtual PC. When we try to run it, however, the application fails to establish a connection to the SQL server (remote, SQL 2000) for login validation.
The conditions are I don't have administrator privilege I want to see the status of a service in remote machine (server)I use the following code (vb.net with framework 2.0) to see the status
Dim sqlSvc As ServiceController Svc = New ServiceController(My.Settings.serviceName, My.Settings.machineName) If sqlSvc.Status.ToString.Equals("Running") Then displayStatus("success", sqlSvc.Status.ToString) Else displayStatus("error", sqlSvc.Status.ToString) End If
When running the code, InvalidOperationException is raised and found out that I need admin right in the server.Can I lookup the status of the service without having admin right in remote machine ?
I just want to write code inside my assembly to detect whether it is running on a "desktop machine", or inside the context of an ASP.NET application. This is crucial guys, (licensing purposes), and I don't want to get fired because I did a mistake.So, please, be direct and if you please give me some code snippet.
I have some programs written in VB2010 using functions from a DLL. I have compiled and run these programs on a 32bit XP computer and a 32bit Win7 computer and have had no problems accessing the DLL.I have published an installation of these programs and tried running the install on a 64bit Win7 machine and the installation is performed correctly. It installs the programs and copies the required DLL into the same folder. the problem is that whenever I run the software and try to access the DLL I get errors.
The error says something like:
An unhandled exception has occurred in your application. An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format. (Exception from HRESULT:0x8007000B)
If I click past it the software runs and all of the forms are loaded properly, but anytime in the software if I try to access the DLL I get the same error.I am declaring functions in the DLL like this:
Public Declare Function OpenDriver Lib "OP815M.DLL" (ByVal handle_Renamed As Integer) As Integer
I have also tried placing the DLL in the system32 directory and also the sysWOW64 directory and that did not help as well.I do recall that hardware drivers need to be properly signed and pass the Microsoft Logo testing. Must I get the DLLs I am using properly signed?
Edit: Also it might be fair to mention that I have used the DLL with another program written in C, which would run in the DOS command line in Windows and it correctly accesses the DLL on a 64bit machine, but just when run from the DOS command line in windows.
After reading a couple of tutorials, it seems that basically NET works quite like java. All the IDE's produce an intermediate code that I have to distribute, and which NET compiles at runtime to machine code and then executes it. Leaving aside the question why so when NET works only on Windows platforms, I have some other more practical questions:Is it possible to directly compile to machine code targeted at specific platform like XP 32-bit or Win7 64-bit?
I am building a Setup project for a Web system using Visual Studio 2008. I upgraded my development machine from Windows Xp to Windows 7. The problem started with Windows 7. Whenever I try to build I get the above error. I ve tried several solutions given online but I ve failed to get a solution. When I transfer the system to a machine running Windows Xp or Windows 2003 Server it builds successfuly.
I have a program that runs some code when i click a button on a form when done running the application ends. I want to automaticaly run the code when the users clicks on the exe. I have put the code that i want to run in the startup forms load event but that doesn't start
I have made the slot machine. It all works good except, I have encounted one problem though. When you get two of the same images or all three, you don't win anything.i have tried some code. This code has no erros what so ever, but it doesnt seem to work.i have made a new private sub called get payout.( it doesnt make anything appear on the page).Code for the payout i have used is below(doesnt come up with erros though)[code]
I don't THINK it should be a credentials issue.I'm reading the credentials out of a database and using the same ones whether the program is running on my development machine (Win7) or my production server (Win 2008 R2).[code]
I am in Great problem, When I am running on my own machine then there is no problem creating but when I am running my project on another machine then the project generating problem which like this 'Could not load type 'TechnoAid.FrameWork.logManager' from assembly 'TechnoAid.FrameWork, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,PublicKeyToken=null'."Source="Inventory.Metadata"TypeName="TechnoAid.FrameWork.logManager"StackTrace:

I develop an application using vb.net.application will run on client server architecture.when we try to execute the program in client side then it will give me an error which is related to sqlclientexception.how can i handle this situation.i used vb.net 3.5 as front end and sql server 2000 as back end.i have done total coding with system.data.sqlclient namespace.
I've inherited a lot of custom made software for an office, and, while managing it, I've found it performs differently from machine to machine.I mean, some controls get painted in weird ways in some machines but well in another, or just work differently, like in some machines clicking something selects it, and in the next machine clicking the same thing makes it editable.I suspect, o course, of the myriad of DLL the software loads
I have already got the start date to verify if after end date and display message, but when i put the following code .focus it seems to run the code twice[code]...
Is it possible to have code running in the background and still be able to use other parts of the program (i.e. firing other events).For example I have a instant messaging chat in my program and when the user has a new message then the display flashes from green to red as seen below
[code]...
But I still want to be able to continue using the other functions in my program despite having this code running in the background (which highlights to the user that he has a new instant message by changing the display background colour)How can I overcome this?
I have been working on them and adding to them for several months. Out of nowhere, one of the subs in my project is not recognizing updated code. I had a for loop in there that was acting funny so I changed something and noticed no difference. I messed with it for a while and decided to just replace everything in that sub with a simple msgbox and it still tries to run the code that was previously there. I have built the solution, rebuilt it, cleaned it, closed and reopened it, removed the bin and obj folders and restarted my computer several times. This is not a server program or anything dealing with IIS or anything like that.
I have an application that checks the available disk space on the host machine and, if the free space is less than some constant, calls a batch which e-mails people who should be notified about such things using sendemail.exe.The VB code works properly, calling the .bat exactly as it's supposed to, and the .bat (when run independantly) works properly, sending of a lovely e-mail.But, when I put them together, the batch file reports that "'sendemail' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.".I'm well aware of how the PATH variable works and have been sure that the path to the .bat is within PATH (hence why it works when I just run it from the command prompt). I can only assume that, somehow, PATH does not apply to processes run from VB.NET for some reason.
VB.NET segment: If FREESPACE > GetFreeSpace(DRIVE) Then 'Not enough free space
