View 3 RepliesI 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.

I would like to create a build event to do that, but I do not see a "Build Events" folder on the property page. Is there a setting where I can get this folder? Or, is there another way I can set up a post-build event to copy a file to the output directory? The folders I see on the Properties page:

View 8 RepliesUsing Visual Basic in Visual Studio 2008. I have students zip the folder for a vb project and send it to me. Then I unzip and add it to a project of mine. It will not open any of their work as the path has changed. I can't even see the code. If they send me the code only then I have to recreate the forms. They also have problems saving it on a jump drive, then moving that jump drive to a different computer as the drive letter changes. I have looked for help and it states to go to icons that I can't find in studio 2008. Using the open existing project gives the same result as the path has changed. Is it impossible to give someone else an existing project? I have gone in the import/export options but have run out of guesses.

View 2 RepliesI am about to start up a new project using Visual Basic .Net Express 2008 and I was wondering if I should install and use Visual Basic .Net Express 2010 instead. I would like your opinion of 2010. My project isn't especially fancy. But an automatic adjustment for monitor size would be useful.
Does 2010 replace the existing VB Express? Do I have to convert my existing projects? I had problems with this going from 2005 to 2008.
I was at a class recently, and the instructor started a new Visual Studio 2008 project using a "COM project" template. Now that I'm back, I tried finding that template in my installation of VS2008 with no luck. Does anybody know where I can find that template, or failing that, what it might be doing to achieve its effect?
View 2 RepliesI was a COBOL programmer agout 15 years ago and I am now just getting into Visual Basic. The owner of a local business has asked me to write a program to perform what I think is a simple task. In the past the business would process payroll checks and print them in-house. Now they are using direct deposit. Checks are no longer printed. The check stub though is printed. This stub is then carried to each of 10 locations across West Tennessee and distributed to the employees.
This is my task: capture the stubs to a file (PDF, XPS) and email it to each employee. This way the employee will recieve the stub on the same day the deposit is made. I can capture the output file (the stubs) and save it as a PDF file or a XPS file. I can send an email from within a program. What I don't know how to do is open the PDF or XPS file, read the email address and insert the page into the email body.

Clicking on the link it talking about Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices. Which, I am guessing means the project a mixture of both .NET and .COM. How would I rewrite to be totally .Net compatible instead of relying on .COM?Also where would I put code in VB.NET if it was in the Form_Initialize() sub in VB6.0?

I am hoping that somebody here is familiar with the book, "Doing Objects with Visual Basic 2005" so this question makes more sense but I will try and ask it in a way that makes knowledge of the book irrelevant.The book contains a sample project that I am trying to use as a "framework" for all my new projects. The project shows you how to read and edit objects to and from a database and that part works great. The author then leaves the new and deletes up to the reader to do, which is a good way to learn. However I am having trouble with the it. My problem is that I am having trouble implementing my own ProcessNew InterfaceI think this is how it should be:
Public Function ProcessNew() As Boolean Implements IMDIChild.ProcessNew
Dim myGoal As Goal = TryCast(GoalBindingSource.AddNew, Goal)
myGoal.Goal = rtxtGoals.Text

What is the sum of the digits of the number 2^(1000)?I have been trying to do this problem for a few days now and i just can't figure out how to get vb.net 2008 to recognize anywhere near that large a number. I have seen in other posts that some software like java has the integer type BigNumber or BigInteger but i cant find anything like that in visual basic. I'm running into this problem a lot using Visual Basic. I also can't seem to find any of the standard upper level math features in visual basic such as factorials and a few others that i can't remember but couldn't find under the math feature. any suggestions? (Sorry let me rephrase, any suggestions on how to do this stuff without switching to a different programming language.)
