View 6 RepliesI would really like to know if there is anyway in which I can package two or more set up files together with my vb.net application; so that after installing the application, it automatically starts installing the other applications from the other set-up files.

I am looking to write a program for work, which is essentially a skills database. However, I need the program to have a locally held database, which does not require a server.
What is the best way to go about incorporating a dataset into the current project so that when built, it will be accessible on any computer that runs the exe file?
I am trying to compress and uncompress files. I have read that System.IO.Packaging might suit my needs, but I can not find it. I am using VS 2008 professional. Imports System.IO.Packaging at the top of class does not work (it throws an error). I did find system.io.compression. Does this replace packaging? If it does, does it handle .7z and .rar files?

View 1 RepliesThis is the code I have right now
pZipFilename = "C:\123\1234.zip"
Using pkgMain As Package = Package.Open(pZipFilename, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read)

The problem I'm having is that pkgMain.GetParts() never returns anything even though the .zip file has around 100 items in it.
I might not be placing this query at the right place.But i am having a problem packaging my vb.net application into a windows installer.My vb.net [3.5 fw] uses windows media player component + shockwave component. Now when i select a new project and go to setup wizard.. it gievs me the following error/warning:"the following files may have dependencies that cannot be determined automatically.[code]
View 3 RepliesI'm trying to use system.io.packaging to create my own zip class. I've got it to work, but i'm not happy with the compression rate. In the code below I've set it to the maximum compression rate, yet winrar is able to create a zip (at maximum compression) that is 2/3 of the size when I make it. Am i doing something wrong?
[Code]...
I'm using the System.IO.Packaging namespace in my VS2005 application. The zip compression works fine for 1 or many files. The unzip though for some reason seems to only unzip one file. Initially I did this in vs2008 at home and it worked fine, but now at work with vs2005 it's only unzipping one of the files. Can you see anything that I might be doing wrong?
Public Sub UnzipArchive(ByVal zipFile As String, ByVal UnzipLocation As String)
If (Not zipFile Is Nothing And Not UnzipLocation Is Nothing) Then
Dim zipFilePackage As Package

I have developed an app and an installer for it and everything works fine. I now feel I should add a bit of obfuscation to the code before it gets released into the wild. VS2010 comes with the CE edition of dotfuscator so I've run it and it produced an .exe in a 'Dotfuscated' folder. Do I just replace all four 'Primary output from. custom actions with the assembly from the Dotfuscator folder or am I missing something?
View 9 RepliesI am attempting to read Excel 2003 cell content through a Visual Basic 2008 program. Searching Help for the subject yielded an example Function named XLGetCellValue (ByVal fileName As String, ByVal sheetName As String, Byval addressName As String) As String
This function required the following Iports:
Imports
System.IO.Packaging
Imports System.Xml
Imports System.IO
upon pasting the above three Iports to the Program, Igot the following error message:Warning 1 Namespace or type specified in the Imports 'System.IO.Packaging' doesn't contain any public member or cannot be found. Make sure the namespace or the type is defined and contains at least one public member. Make sure the imported element name doesn't use any aliases.
I was able to create an application in VB.net that talks to a SQL Server CE database.Now i want to deploy this application using the publish feature with clickonce.An issue im having tho is when I install the application on another computer it keeps looking for my sql server on my development pc.
Ive added the .sdf when i package my solution but its still an issue.How do I change my connection string to connect to the .sdf file that I included in the package? this is my current connection string which looks at the sql server: connectionString = " Data Source=CHRIS-PCSQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=ce_db;Integrated Security=True"
I'm developing a very simple program in VB2010 Express that will create folders based on entries in a remote database. I am fully aware that the minimum requirement to run the exe is the latest .net framework, however I have a few added resources to the file, and when I try to run the executable on another computer, it fails to run stating that the resources are missing.
How do i compile my VB code AND the resources together into a stand-alone executable that only requires the .net framework to be installed?I have already tried to google this issue, however every answer I find has nothing to do with my initial question..

I'm using the System.IO.Packaging namespace to compress a file. I'm getting an error that says 'file contains corrupted data'.

I have writen a program using vb.net 2005 and used SQL Server 2000 as the database. I also used DataSet to process the records. When I try to run the program on a peer-to-peer network it fails and returns the error message

Then on the dialog box there was OK button when click on it, the error message

i would like some advice on how I would go about deploying my application I coded with vb.net and access.The problem I have been facing is that I cannot install it on another machine . It gives me an error saying that It cannot find the database in C:\Users\Weighbridge2\AppData\Local\Apps\2.0\Data\. database.accdb when you install access runtime and access runtime sp1 and copy the database to that location then it works.Is there a more efficient way of going about this. I suspect it has something to do with the refferences and prerequisites but up to now i've tried almost all we know .

I built this vb.net windows application that uses an Access DB for data storage and it works fine in visual studio. The problem is, when I deploy, install it from an MSI, i get this error: (see below)If I right click on it and run this program as administrator, it works fine. I thought it was a permissions problem so I gave user, administrator and system full rights to all the files in the directory. But I still get the error.Isn't giving all the files in the program directory full rights the same as making it run as admin?
