Any Reason To Justify Buying MSDN Premium And Spending Extra Money?
Aug 19, 2009
I am planning to buy Visual studio 2008 professional for home use to help me learn .net and eventually to help me get ready for MCP certifications. My question is about MSDN. Visual Studio 2008 Professional with MSDN Professional is $1100 from Microsoft.com. Visual studio 2008 Professional and MSDN premium is $2500 from Microsoft.com. Given what I want to use it for, is there any reason to justify buying MSDN Premium and spending the extra money?

I get a message, "The MSDN collection does not exist. reinstall MSDN." When I try to access any of the HELP features of Visual Basic 6.0. I do not have an install disc for this. Is there a download or a place I can get this?

I am thinking about ways to protect software and after spending a few days researching different ways such as using instalShield, etc. i was wondering how would you go about creating your own license server.
Would it be having a part of your install procedure writing a registry file to state if it was first time used. Then from there on first load having the user enter in the information such as (Name, Organization and serial number), then the software connect to the website or server hosting the database and then have the serial number and details checked against it if not in add to the database with the MAC Address and other unique code form system ('Unsure what') and then return true which would then allow to open the software, if already present check how many times it is present through RowCount if more than say 3 to allow change of systems or upgrades then return false and return msg and stop the system.
Is this the basic princaple of it and how difficult would it be to create? is it just like preforming an SQL query against a database or would there be alot more as part of it?what could be the possible loop holes it? would it also be benificial to check the details are correct silently say every 30days to ensure that it is not copied software?

I want to create an application that able to calculate the total time the user (i.e. myself) spent on a particular application, for example Firefox. And this application should display warning message if the user spent a lot of time on Firefox (for example 1 hour or more)Reason: I'm a VB.NET developer. During my working hours, my main tool is Visual Studio and I suppose to do coding. But I need Firefox occasionally to access internet (particularly SO and other sites) to find solutions for my programming problems. The problem is I addicted to SO and SO sucks my time for hours until I have forgotten that I suppose to continue coding and not browsing the SO site.

I cannot install Visual Basic 6.0 Pro Edition on my new computer which is on Windows 7 Home Edition. My old computer croaked, and I am trying to install it on my new computer with the disc that I have from installing on my old computer. The new computer is 64-bit Dell machine. The error message that I get is: "Microsoft has problems with this software on this Windows Edition". This is the essence of the message; may not be exact. I read about WOW as a work around, but how can I work around when I can't get it to install?

I just downloaded the trial for this application and it doesn't seem to work. I went through the Quick Setup guide and it all looked great. Now when I place my cursor on a member of any type and press Ctrl+Shift+D it does nothing. I placed it on top, inside, etc... Nothing. If I press Ctrl+Shift+A (twice) on top of the member it tells me to place it "in the line of the form MyType myVariable;". I'm not quite sure what this means unless it's referring to C# but this project is VB.NET which it doesn't seem to recognize. Anyone else have this issue? I was hoping it would make things easier since I've read that it can document an entire document rather than having to member by member. Using VS 2010 Premium.

I hv installed VS2010 Ultimate on my Samsung notebook win 7 home premium 64 bit. But one thing was wrong, i couldn't get sql express installed, with some error that i forgot. I can't see SQL Express menu on my menu list though unable to launch it.
after searching the net, it says that i might need Windows Installer 5 (SDK) which is 2,5 GB to download. Is it true that I need that SDK to install sql express properly? or it is not possible to have sql express on home premium 64bit?

How do I left justify my columns in Excel programmatically in VB? I have a VB program that is writing an excel file based off of certain information. I have tried using:
oSheet.Columns.HorizontalAlignment.Left()
This works against columns with text. I have multiple columns that are strictly numbers. This function will not work against columns with Numeric Cells.
Below is the MissingMemberException I keep getting:
Public member 'Left' on type 'Integer' not found.

I have seen in Debugging .net 2.0 Applications the following code [code] Is there any reason to use the #if directive? I mean, from what I understand the method will only be called if the DEBUG is defined, so I don't see a point in having the #if in the method body.

I have had a lot of trouble trying to distribute my programs for money. The way they are set up, you type in one product key, and it is activated. Now you can do this for any amount of installations or computers. What I would like to be able to do is have it so they can only use a product key 5 times. For example, you would host a text file on a server like this:
" XOTS3-G4SIT-HJ58GS-HMG52J, 1, 5" where the random characters are the product key, 1 is the amount of times it has been used, and 5 is the maximum limit. Something tells me that this is going to tie in with ASP.NET somehow, which I have no experience in, so if we could stay away from that it would be great. Also, I am having lots of trouble hosting a website from my house, so if there is a way to host it on another server like ripway.com that would be good too. I know I am supposed to post a source, but I really just want to know how to read and write to a text file on another computer using vb.net. I could figure out the rest.

I have in Sql a money filed named value, and the data looks like this: 234.0000 .
I use this data trough a vb application, and so I store it in a double variable named dfValue, but I only get 234.0, even if I use: select round(value,2,1) and then Format (dfValue,"#.00").

I was asked by an employer to sort a hash table. I always thought that the usage of a hash table was in a way non-sort friendly. Am I wrong in thinking this, and if not can you point me to a good VB.Net(Yes Kill me now, but it's an old system) method of sorting a hash table.
