i used printForm to print forms, but when i installed the powerpack 3.0 it doesn't work anymore.i am always getting an error "PrintForm is ambiguous in the namespace 'Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks.Printing'" i am using visual studio 2008 professional edition.
View 3 Repliesi have 2 windows machines with VB 2008 installed on both. I created a windows app on 1 machine and put the powerpacks dll file with the app folder anyway. For some reason, when i load the project up on my other machine, i just get a never ending list of errors related to PowerPacks. Why? I have exactly the same version installed and tried download the PowerPacks on Windows website. I just get over 102 errors saying Type 'Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks.LineShape' is not defined. Anyone care to enlighten me?

I seemed to have have ruined my settings on VS 2010... I can't get the Shapes to work just after I had fixed the problem with the PowerPacks, and then it deleted all of my shapes I had on my form after I was tweaking the code and added another shape. And ever since, the shapes make errors and I can't change there colors. I've tried reinstalling VS 2010, and changing refferences doesn't work anymore. The title is the problem I have with trying to add a shape through the code in my project, here is the code for that:
Public Class Form1
Public Circle As New Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks.OvalShape()
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

I have a project which opens a simple Excel file and populates it. It was working fine until this morning, when it has suddenly started giving me the error above: 'Application' is ambiguous in the namespace 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel'.I haven't changed any project references, or anything within the file itself. The references include Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel. The imports statement is there: importsMicrosoft.Office.InteropThe object declaration is also complete: Dim xl AsMicrosoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application which is the line that's giving me the error!
View 2 RepliesI've started to use a Vista machine for development. In case it is significant: I'm using MSBee so that I can code in the Visual Studio 2005 IDE while still building against the 1.1 framework.On the Vista machine, when I tried to build a particular vb project, I got this error:
error BC30464: Namespace or type'Compatibility' in the project-level Imports 'Microsoft.VisualBasic.Compatibility' cannot be found.
The same project built fine on my old XP machine. I checked in this folder on my Vista machine:
C:windowsmicrosoft.netFrameworkv1.1.4322
...and sure enough, "Microsoft.VisualBasic.Compatibility.dll" was missing. So was "Microsoft.VisualBasic.Compatibility.Data.dll". Copying them from my XP machine to my Vista machine allowed me to build the project successfully.I'm just a bit puzzled as to why this happened. Why was "Microsoft.VisualBasic.Compatibility.dll" missing? I'm also not very comfortable with my chosen solution - copying the DLL manually. It works, but surely there must be a better way.
As far as the configuration:
Vista:
.Net Framework 1.1
.Net Framework 1.1 SP1
.Net Framework 1.1 SDK

Is there any official assurance that the Microsoft.VisualBasic namespace will continue to exist in the future?

I'm have a program filled with forms for the user to enter data to determine fluid and reservoir properties. I want the ability to be able to print out the forms so they may be kept in binders. I'm using the PrintForm function from the Visual Basic PowerPacks but I'm having a problem getting some of the larger forms onto a single page. Is there anyway to zoom or autofit using this function? I've already tried adjusting the margins and that is not enough. I've been trying to look through the object browser but it hasn't worked very well yet.

I am printing my form by using the printdocument of VS and the printform found in powerpacks. I never got the preview to work so when ever I want to print I send my information on a new form (form1) which I have altered ( colour borders ) so it is printable. To print form1 I have added a toolstrip with a print button so when the user sees all is ok on the form1 he clicks on it which hides the toolstrip and prints form1. All this sequence works fine. The problem I have been getting lately is that I can print on the first try but when I call another form to print the toolstrip ( with the print button ) is always hidden. I have to exit the application and re enter to get it to show up. Any solution to this or even how to print in a better way. (have the preview to work for example ). I have tried to use printdialog to print but I have never been able to send the document to print.
View 4 RepliesWhen I start my application I get the following error:
method not found microsoft.visualbasic.msgboxresult
I have tried repairing my .NET installation.
Note: This error only occurs on one machine. On every other machine it works fine which makes me think something with the .NET assemblies was corrupted. It was working fine on the broken machine a few days ago.
I'm having trouble with a more complex program, so I've created a simple program to highlight my issue (see code block below). When I declare a Collection generically (like I have below) and try to call IndexOf, I get the following compiler error:
'IndexOf' is not a member of 'Microsoft.VisualBasic.Collection'. (BC30456)
If I instead declare my Collection as a collection of strings (Public mycollection As New Collection(Of String)), I then have access to the usual methods, but the .Add method then only allows a single string to be passed to it. This means that I can't use a key, which seems to be the point of a collection. Is there any way to have a general, keyed collection that can use IndexOf?

View 3 RepliesI would try to make some simple programming with the Shape Controls provided in the Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks Namespace. I have used this MS site for reference: ms-help://MS.VSCC.v80/MS.VSIPCC.v80/MS.VBPOWERPACKS.v30/dv_vboshapelinecon/html/d43d1807-9313-435f-a09e-3d07c6f9e806.htm. At the top of the form code editor I have added the line "Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks". Then I have tried to add the rest of the code in different Event procedures, but at the "Dim canvas As New ShapeContainer" and the "Dim theLine As New LineShape" I get the following error message: 'ShapeContainer' is ambiguous in the namespace 'Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks' (I get the same message regarding the LineShape).
View 3 RepliesI have a large project where we have 2-3 dll projects that are converted from VB6 to VB.NET. We have fixed all the issues that caused compilation errors, and most of obvious issues in running, so now we have basically a program up and running. The exe is created from scratch in VB.NET, using a lot of functionality from the converted dll's (including GUI forms). What I wonder is when I run the program in debug mode, I get a bunch of warnings in the "Immediate Window" saying:
A first chance exception of type 'System.Exception' occurred in Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll
...and some of other type (but most of them in Microsoft.VisualBasic.dll).I was wondering if this is common in projects converted from VB6, or if it is caused by bad design in our code...
I now have SQL Parameters set up and I'm using them to save/delete/add my data. This all works well, except when it's trying to save a combobox to the datatable it appears with the error above.Majority of my comboboxes have datasources, and the valuemembers of these are the actual list items, not the ID's of the list items.I'm not sure why this error could be happening, I'm fairly sure I've connected everything to the binding source correctly; I've checked it a few times.Does anybody know what the cause of this could be? I've looked around a bit and I haven't found much
View 7 RepliesWe have a VB web application that for some reason breaks when some clients run Windows Updates. To resolve the issue we have to force the application to recompile on the servers where the application is installed. In some instances we must do this multiple times and/or restart IIS as well to resolve the issue.
This didn't start happening until October of 2009, and then suddenly it happened all the time... but not for every client, and not with every update. It continues to happen and we have been at a loss to understand why. Is anyone else experiencing this issue or found a way around it? If there is something in our code that we can alter to keep this from happening I would love to know about it, as we spend time and resources troubleshooting and resolving an issue that doesn't exist until a Windows update runs and our application becomes un-usable until resolved.

I'm currently working on an existing ASP.NET project. At the moment I have to integrate
a new componant so for that purpose I had to change the framework target from 2.0 to 3.5. After regenerating the solution, I'm now dealing with a strange issue.
Here's the code :

<WebServiceBinding(ConformsTo:=WsiProfiles.BasicProfile1_1)> _
<Global.Microsoft.VisualBasic.CompilerServices.DesignerGenerated()> _
<System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptService()> _
And the last line returns that error 'ScriptServiceAttribute' is ambiguous in the namespace 'System.Web.Script.Services'I have definitely no clue what's going on in my code ?! Is it an internal error of the ScriptService constructor ?
I have this application where I am getting this error. What can I do to resolve this?
