View 5 RepliesI know that I can launch activate/Use functions in assemblies that I have created, but can I start subs? and If so could I start Sub Main from an Assemble? What I mean is I want to run the created program in memory from a sub main and I dont know how .
My other question is how can I change the type of output project? So from a console app to a Windows Form app? ( I am no longer talking about using the assembly dynamicly this is more about creating the physical exe as what I want it as.
I know that they are the Compiler options command line but is it the same as the ones that Visual studio use when compiling? (The ones you see in the out put window)
This one:
CODE:
Each time I create a program, if I don't change the CPU type to x86 in the Project Properties, Compile, Advanced Compile options, it doesn't work. For example, if I hit the drop down button on a combo box, there will be no data, but after switching to x86, there is data. How does changing the CPU type affect how others (such as when its being graded) view the program? If the program is not run on an x86 system, would it appear to not work then?

View 1 RepliesI am following the guidelines from [URL]..Mid way through the process they have you rename your App_Code to Old_App_Code folder and compile ... at which point i had DLL's in my BIN folder and i started to repair my aspx/ascx files.

Today i find the compiled bin files missing an now all my pages are sqwaking they cannot find the numerous Public Class - Public Shared Function's ... I have verified their build action to Compile but am unable to rebuild an have them regenerate on account of project errors.Advice on how to rebuild the bin or how to properly reference a Public Shared Function? My VB code includes an Imports statement taht used to find the class in app_code.
I'm having a problem with converting from one source type to a destination type. I have a form with 2 buttons (button 2 uses the OpenFileDialog to have the user open an excel file set to NewFile),(button 1 takes the contents from specific cells in NewFile and arranges them how I need into oXLApp1).
The error I get is "Unable to cast object of type 'System.IO.FileStream' to type 'Excel.Application'." in line 14 of the code below.
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click

How do I fix this error in Visual Studio? "The project file cannot be loaded. The application for project ... is not installed" I have copied a whole project onto my PC, both into My Documents/Visual Studio and into inetpub/wwwroot, but when I try to open the project in Visual Studio, it tries to open just 1 file .vssproj and gives me error messages, like : "The project file cannot be loaded.

I have a very small VS2008 Winforms project that will not start.When I attempt to start debugging the project, I get the message:'<form>' is a type in '<project>' and cannot be used in an expression.From the file .Designer.vb.The problem is that is indeed a form. If I create a new WinForm and set the startup object to the new form, I get the same message.When I attempt to check the "Enable application framework" checkbox in the Project properties, I get the message "Startup object must be a form when 'Enable application framework' is checked.I've tried creating a new project and moving all the code and designer objects to a new form file in the new project, and same result.Other projects on the same computer run fine.
View 1 RepliesI previously asked around about what type of project to use for my app but I got a lot of responses about defeating captchas and spam apps.The program is a for a social bookmarking app that I want to create. I have about 150 macros created that already navigate to each site and log me in and submit my website's url.....the only thing is that I am planning on going into the Search Engine Optimizating business so I will be needing to enter a lot of different website's url so I decided that I would try to custom code an app that would have a simple textbox field for me to enter a website url and then a submit button to run the scripts in the background....as the captchas would appear they would be redirected from the website into a picturebox in the program where i can read them and enter the captcha into a textbox and hit a submit button that would enter my answer into the answer box for the captcha and then press the okay box.....each each script is executed the new catcpha would appear in the VB app so that I wouldn't have to manually be at each site to see the captcha but it would be redirected to the VB app for me to enter.
what would be the best type of project to use to create this type of app? I'm thinking that a Windows Form project would be good because I could use the textboxes and buttons but I'm not sure on how I can control the macros to run in the background..
On the VB start page, how do I change the name of a project?

What I am suppose to do is change the Name the Solution project, and form file to Photo Solution, Photo Project, and Main Form.vb, respectivelyI am new at Visual basic and the book doesn't make and sence and I looked it up on line and it says to (Select Project > Project1 Properties. In the Project Properties dialog box, change Project1 to your project name, say Counter.)(different names but I got the idea of what they were trying to say)and I tried doing that but nothing happens (nothing changes), even over where it says "my project" it's still the same. What am I doing wrong, or is that the way it is suppose to be?

View 2 RepliesI've downloaded the MSDN "101 VB Samples" from the MS site and I'm getting an error that reads "The project type is not supported by this installation". I can open the other files that I've tried (about a dozen in other folders), so I'm wondering if it is something specific with the VSTO files, or something about my VB setup.
I thought at first it was a problem with the path where the file is sitting, but even moving it from C:Documents and Settings[my name]My DocumentsMSDN to C: didn't work...Edit: I have also tried opening in notepad and converting the file to UTF-8, changing the File Association from MS Visual Studio version selector to devenv.exe, and running devenv /setup at the command prompt, all with no luck (all these ideas were found through Googling the error message....).
I am quite new to the VB scene, and am still quite confused by the variety of options presented as far as choosing the correct project type.I have been coding for roughly 4 years now and consider myself still to be a beginner. My past experiences include, hmtl, C++, vba, assembly, and a few others which I'm sure currently escape me.However, VB is a whole new boat and I'm just not sure where to get started with what I want to do.I've Googled the internet, went through the MSDN, and even did some tutorials.My current dilemma is I wish to make a program that will do a the following: Allow a User to download a set of data from an embedded web page.Open an excel file Download more data from a different web page.Open another excel document..I'm sure this is probably quite simple to do (read: I hope...). However I'm just not sure where to begin as far as choosing a project type. Additionally I'd like to have it set up with buttons, where button1 reads something along the lines of "Step 1: Click Here to Go and Download Data", "Step 2: Click Here to browse to excel file", etc etc.What type of project do I chose to get the stuff done on my list?
View 8 RepliesI had to switch computers at work to a laptop. My co-worker was using this laptop and we where both working on the same project using CollabNetSubversion to update the VB project. Well he left and reformatted his Laptop and now I am using it.
I took the VB project from my PC to the laptop and now every change I do won't show up if I run the program.I can completely commit out code for a form and it still runs!My trial version of VB ends in six days so I can't use the PC anymore.
I'm sure I've done this before but I can't for the life of me figure out how to change the EXE output name for my project!

View 8 RepliesI have a project with about 20 forms and each form have an average of 10 buttons. Today my boss woke up with the idea of changing the appearance of the buttons adding a background image to them. Is there any way to apply this change to any button in the project without making the change one by one? Creating a custom control is not the solution because is even more complicated at this point.
