Create Update Application For Windows CE?
Nov 23, 2009
I am trying to create a update application for Windows CE.
It will go out on the net to my site and see if there is any new updates but I am having a problem doing that.
Firstly it is working fine if I create it using a 'Windows Application' but as soon as I Copy + Paste the code to my 'Windows CE' app (smart device, windows CE) it comes up with an error.
I am using .net framework 2.0.0 and vb.net 2008
Here is the code which I am using:
Code:
Function DownloadFile(ByVal sURL As String, ByVal pProgress As ProgressBar, ByVal Filename As String, ByVal Prefix As String, ByVal Rename As Boolean) As Boolean
Dim wRemote As System.Net.HttpWebRequest
[Code].....

I know there are many posts about updating an application with UAC turned on. We have a huge application and our own update program for updating that. We don't want to use the UserAppData area to install our exes. We do mostly custom programming so updates are a part of like for us. My question is: If we get our update program digitally signed can the standard user with UAC turned on accept those changes without administrator privileges and can that be done to a VB6 executable.

I was wondering if there is a way to update Windows Vista via a Vb .Net application.
I wanted to use Vista's WUSA.EXE, but it seems that it is only able to do specific updates in a specific location, not all updates.
Info on WUSA.EXE: [URL]

I would like to implement update to my applications but not in the automated fashion. I would like the user to check for update, through version control in my database, and if there is a newer version, it will automatically shutdown the user's application and run the update (copy and replace files in the users application folder). After the update, it would restart the application for use. I was thinking in creating a .msi for creating and replacing files, still don't know how to create it! My main concern is to be able to implement a proven and correct .Net method for Updating applications. A best practice for deploying and executing updates to my applications.

What are the best practices to develop a software in such a way that I can release updates, I mean I can release an update which replace the existing executable but in case I have added some new references (dlls) to the project this won't work ? Is there any way I can do it without running an MSI?

I have recently released a free application for some game and now I have added a few features 'the public' requested.
I used Inno Setup to create the installer, which works just fine.
Now however, instead of having the ask the user to uninstall the current version, and then reinstall my new version, I want to be able to give the user an Update install exe which they can simply run and it will update the existing application.
One thing I would like is that the users Settings are not changed. So hence the following questions: 1. Where are the Settings stored? I thought it was in the user's Local Settings <Application Name> directory, but I cannot find my application there... I cannot find it in the All Users or Administrator 'accounts' directories either...
2. Are the Settings stored depending on the Version of your application? (Assembly Version / File Version)?
If 2. is true, then obviously changing the Application Version (which is logical in an Updated executable, no?) would also change the Settings back to default..? Can I avoid that?
Finally, is it enough to simply overwrite the executable? What registry 'work' do I need to do, or can Inno Setup do that for me? I am only using one other file which is the SharpZipLib DLL file.

i have a simple application which can create/update/delete/search records using Access database. If i add a record, save it, then close the application and run it again and search for that record, it appears. However, when i write some code to my application, nothing to do with the search function, and i run the application the record is not found. For example i added a button to clear the textfields, and when i ran the application the records i have added earlier were not found.

I have just begun using Visual Studio to create a windows form application in visual basic. I have a chart on the form, and I would like to be able to right-click, copy the chart and then paste in,say, Microsoft word. At the moment I have created a contextmenustrip which appears when the user clicks on the chart, but I am unsure of the code necessary to actually copy the chart and hold it until pasted into a different application.

I want to create a table in my windows form application using VB.Net.
The table's rows and collumns are filled dynamically based on a selection in a drop down list. Each row in that table would have 2 textboxes, 1 combobox, 2 checkboxes, and 1 button.
I am aware of DataGridView and TableLayoutPanel -DataGridView - I do not like the appearance so I don't want to use it...Also it is not very flexible with checkboxes and buttons
TableLayoutPanel - Will involve many lines of code. Also handling the checkbox and button click events is not very flexible

We have a Windows Forms application that needs to run on an ASUS EEE PC on-site. The application displays some data on the Form, and processes some data in the background. It is connected via Serial Port and USB to some custom electronics at the location. We could have used a regular 8051 microcontroller for processing and displaying the data, but since we added a barcode scanner along with a database into the equation, we needed a chip with an OS, so we went with the ASUS EEE PC minimalistic machine option, with Windows XP installed, and the platform used for coding the application as VB.NET and SQL Server.
We have two user logins created on the Windows machine - an admin login, and a limited user login. What we require is that when the employees manning the on-site location switch on the computer, and login into their limited user login, instead of displaying the desktop and exposing normal Windows functionality, the machine should directly start our Forms application, and not allow the user to quit or close or minimize the application in any way, but should only display our Forms application in full-screen mode. The Forms application should have a button which, when clicked, exposes the Windows Shut-Down dialog so that the machine can be shut down when not in use.

Do i create a windows form application or which one do i choose? Here is the instructions. For this assignment, you will create a Visual Basic.NET application to manage personal assets. A screen shot of the desired UI is shown in the following image. You can also download a running example of the completed project and the required database, ITP400_IP2_A.mdb. be aware the example program does not necessarily demonstrate all of the functional requirements, and it is intended only as an example. You are responsible for meeting the listed requirements. Please refer to the following information for the complete requirements.
Requirements
* Fields in tblAssets (These are in the database table and should be displayed on the screen.)
o fldAssetID, long integer, primary key
o fldAssetName, string
o fldDescription, string
o fldDateAcquired, datetime
o fldCost, single
* Perform the appropriate steps to create a connection to the sample database. Be sure to select the option to copy the database to your project so it will be automatically included in the project.
* Perform the appropriate steps to display the detail view of the fields on your form. Be sure to include a functional BindingNavigator on your form.
* Do not allow the user to resize the form.
* Format the Cost field as currency.
* Add a standard pull-down menu to the program with the following structure:
o File (Save, Exit)
o Navigate (First Record, Previous Record, Next Record, Last Record)

I'm Using Visual Studio 2005 and Mysql Database to create a windows application. The datagrid displays all the records. Since I don't know how to directly update from datagrid, thats why I have used textboxes for the respective datagrid fields. A load button is provided which on clicking puts the data on the respective textboxes. The data can be edited in the textbox. Problem is that I can't save this edited or modified data back into dattabase.

I'm using an OLEDB connection to a Sybase database, with ADODB.dll file version 7.10.6070.0 (which comes from the Sybase 12.5 package). I need to be able to open a connection, use a command object to fill a recordset from a stored procedure, then close the connection and pass back a disconnected recordset. My attempts so far fail as every time I close the connection, my recordset also closes (which means it is not disconnected).
Is there a property I must set somewhere to indicate that the recordset should be disconnected? I cannot set Recordset.ActiveConnection = False because I get an exception ("Cannot change the ActiveConnection property of a Recordset object which has a Command object as its source."). I do set the Command.ActiveConnection = False, but that doesn't stop the recordset from closing as soon as I close the connection object.[code]...
