Error - A Reference To C:ProgramFilesMyExes....dll Could Not Be Added
Jan 6, 2011
I'm trying to learn how to call functions in C DLLs from Visual Basic programs. I'm new to VB but have years of experience in C programming & want my functions to be usable by people who are more familiar with VB.
I managed to create a C DLL & call the functions from a C program. One difficulty I had was that I wanted to put my DLLs in a MyExes directory so I could easily have several unrelated programs call them. It was far from obvious how to tell the compiler & linker to look for the DLL in some arbitrary folder but I eventually found out.

Now one of my difficulties with DLLs & Visual Basic is how to tell Visual Basic 2010 Express to look for functions in a DLL in some arbitrary folder. I tried to use Project->Add Reference, then in the Browse tab went to the folder & DLL I wanted to use, but got the message box:"A reference to C:ProgramFilesMyExes....dll could not be added. Please make sure that the file is accesible and that it is a valid assembly or COM component."I've tried to find a walkthrough to take me through the steps of using C DLLs in VB 2010, but so far had no luck.
and from VB6 project I reference to Test.dll but an error messege was appear A reference to Test.dll file could not be added (If I create VB NET project and reference to file Test.dll it OK )
I have a web site project where I need to use the System.Security.Cryptography.Xml.SignedXml class. I added the Dll System.Security as a reference and imported the namespace into my project. It compiles successfully but when I debug the project I get a compilation error:
Compiler Error Message: BC30002: Type 'System.Security.Cryptography.Xml.SignedXml' is not defined.
I have two FlowLayoutPanels in a Form. The first read images from a DIR and expose them generating so many PictureBoxes are necessary. The user can drag an image and drop into the second Panel. All works fine. Now the problem is how can I know the name of the image contained in the PictureBox in the dropped Panel so that I can save it? I tried to recover in a ListBox the name of the images during the population of the first Panel but I don�t know witch may be the reference with the dropped PictureBox.
I have added a reference to the System.Data.SqlClient, but i am not able to use its components while coding, But when i import it in the form class i able to use the component.
So,Is importing a namespace and adding a reference two different things?
I was trying to make my program see if facebook.com was running in internet explorer.
I added the following
Private Function isFaceBookOpen() As Boolean For Each ie As SHDocVw.InternetExplorer In New SHDocVw.ShellWindows() Dim filename As String = System.IO.Path.GetFileNameWithoutExtension(ie.FullName).ToLower() If filename = "iexplore" Then
[code]...
And added reference; Microsoft Internet Controls (COM tab) but i also need to add this reference; Microsoft.mshtml (.NET tab)
Problem is that i can't find that reference. BTW, I want the function to be triggered by a timer.
I am receiving this error: Reference to a non-shared member requires an object reference on the code I've bolded within the code body. Here is my code:
I get this error:Reference to a non-shared member requires an object reference.When i compile on the following code section:
Private Sub statusBarToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) ToolStripMenuItem.Checked = Not ToolStripMenuItem.Checked statusStrip1.Visible = ToolStripMenuItem.Checked
I am opening frmB (variable for FormB - the actual form) from frmA. From btn1 I open frmB like this:
frmB = New FormB() frmB.Show()
From btn2 (frmB is already open) I bring frmB to the front from behind frmA:
FormB.Show() FormB.BringToFront().
No problem so far. Now I need to pass an arg to frmB. This is where I am having the problem.
from btn1 (in frmA) I do this:
frmB = New FormB(myArg) '--pass myArg to constructor of FormB -- no problem here frmB.Show()
then from btn2 -- this is where I have the problem
FormB.Show() FormB.BringToFront()
I tried placing myArg in FormB.Show(myArg) but that did not fix the problem. What is the correct way to pass myArg to FormB (frmB) in this scenario? Do I need to share FormB or frmB? How do I do this? "frmB" is frmA level variable.

I am a beginning programmer and am having a problem with adding a record to a customer table in a Microsoft Access database. I have worked for hours reading my textbook and troubleshooting to no avail. When I execute this code below the record is not added and I do not get an error of any type. When I go into debug mode, all of the parameters are correct and everything looks good. If I open up Access I can manually add the record but using my program nothing happens. All datatypes are string in VS and text in Access.
First an instance of the Customer Class is created and this seems to be successful. But when I take that customer object and run the AddCustomer method of the customer class it is not successful in that the database does not reflect that the record was ever added. [Code]
I have a program that adds controls on the fly to an auto-scroll panel. When the panel is scrolled (viewing the bottom of the panel for example) and a control is added, it looks like it is added assuming the top left corner of the panel is still at 0,0 when in fact it may be 0,500. To see what I am talking about, create an empty "Windows Forms Application" project and insert the below code into it.
Friend WithEvents Panel1 As System.Windows.Forms.Panel Friend WithEvents btnAdd As System.Windows.Forms.Button Dim ButtonCount As Integer
