I have written a small program in VB 2010 Express and I would like to show the version number of my program on the form. I looked through the HELP files and found an example. I put the example in my code like this:'Get the version of the current application.
Dim assem As Assembly = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly()
Dim assemName As AssemblyName = assem.GetName()
Dim ver As Version = assemName.Version
Me.Text = "1st CPC Check Deposit Program Version" & " " & ver.ToString
I am up to version 1.0.0.8 but this is what prints:
I wrote a program using VB 2005 Express edition using a computer with windows xp us edition. the program run fine on al machines here in San Diego but it gets a .net framework error on a computer in the Netherlands with a windows Xp Dutch edition.
This is probably an easy question: I need to change my version number from 5.4 to 5.5. This is not the assembly version, but the version (I think) of my executable.
I am using an about Box in my program and the version number doenst change.Its 1.0.0.0.0 , does anyone know how to sink the version number in the box with the version number being published.
Is it possible to use LINQ in the express version of visual studio? I am planning on refactoring my project to use LINQ, but I am the only person in my group that has a copy of visual studio pro. Will that cause any problems if someone using the express version has to modified my code?EditI realize that the graphical tools are not available in the express version, so my question does not pertain to those. I am more interested in the actual code, which I assume will work
I am attempting to write a program in Visual Basic Express 2010 that uses .NET Framework version 3.5 instead of 4. (The computers that I plan to use this program on only have .NET 3.5 SP1, and are painfully slow, so I don't want to upgrade them to .NET 4.)I have seen in the documentation that the Express edition does not have the option to change the target framework in the "New Project" dialog. However, when I go to the Project Properties window, there is not a drop-down list for the target framework, either.Can I change the target framework version in Visual Basic Express 2010?
I create a new Windows Forms application and add an AboutBox form which is built-in into Visual Studio. I add a button to Form1 to show the AboutBox when clicked.The AboutBox form has a label with the text "Version" on it. The following code is supposed to add the application's version to that label at run-time:
Me.LabelVersion.Text = String.Format("Version {0}", My.Application.Info.Version.ToString)When the application version is changed in the Publish tab of the My Project form to 2-0-3-6, the version on the AboutBox at run-time stays at 1.0.0.0 (of course after rebuilding).
Even when the application is published to the desktop, it still does not work. It does, however, reflect the correct version number in the title of a subfolder in the Applications folder that is created when the application is published.
I have written a program in VB Express 2008 and published it so I can install on another PC. When trying to install on another PC I get the error message "Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPack.Vs Version 9.0.0.0 be installed in the Global Cache (GAC) first" I have already installed the .NET 3.5 and the PowerPack but I still get the message.
Does the Express Version support adding multiple soultions (.sln) to a project or is this only available with the Professional version.I see that I can add a DLL as a reference that was built in 2010, but it is not letting me step into it with the debugger (or recompile changes to its source).
I want to get the major, minor, build and revision version numbers of an EXE, not my vb project.If I do:
FileVersionInfo.GetVersionInfo(sEXEFilePath).FileVersion I get 11.00.00003 It seems to have combined the build and revision numbers into one. In the good old days,
Whenever I build my VB.Net project, the Assembly version does not automatically update as it is supposed to with the * in the third box in the Assembly Information. The only way I have found to (sometimes - it doesn't always work) get the version number to update is to Clean the Project, remove the *, Rebuild, reClean, put the * back in, and Rebuild again. What could be causing this issue to happen?
I should note that my coworker reports no such issue on his machine when Building the same Project; also, I must admit to some confusion on my part as to how this behavior is even possible, given that the error persists even if I remove every possible intermediate file I can think of that could possibly even be carrying the old version number, so how does it even know the old version number?
I need to display the version number of the application on the top bar of the application. I managed to crate a setup wizard but I have no idea how to manage the verions.
I've defined two numbers. ThisVersionNumber and LatestVersionNumber, I want to compare them, and so if ThisVersionNumber = < LatestVersionNumber it will show a dialogue.
How do I receive the latest version number which is hosted at [URL]
You can get the version of your application sing My.Application.Info.Version. Is it also possible to set this version using code? This because I have a webservice that connects to a database and retrieves a version number.My application then compares that version number with his one, if it's old.. then it will download new files and change his version number.
I have an application that will not load unless my local SQL Server is running on an Vista Home Premium machine. This started after a .Net 1 to .Net 4 conversion. I am using a sub main sub that is not being called (msgbox is not fired when entering the app), however, I see the app through taskmgr with increasing memory usage, but then the app is removed from the list. By design, if the program cannot locate a SQL Server a form pops up with a connection box to locate the SQL Server for the app. How it determines if it has a valid connection is the program looks for a connection string in the registry, then attempts to connect to it, however, none of this code executes because of the failure to enter into the sub main.The two machines I have tried the 32 bit app on
XP Pro: Failed / Using SQL Server 2008 Express
Windows 2003 Server: Works / Using SQL Server 2008 Developer
Both machines have .Net 4 Client Profile with Extended?
The program I am trying to modify was initially written using VB 2005 Express. I have subsequently downloaded the 2008 version. The program creates a monthly spreadsheet from a template. The old code that will no longer (highlighted and underlined) compile is as follows:
I need to get the current install version for several apps installed on my machine (The same thing displayed in the Add/Remove Programs list)....how do I get this version info programatically?
I am making trial version of my vb .net project but it is not counting the days , date and time . Can u plz give me any suggestions to make it correct. [code]...
Simple question that does not seem to be covered: If I use a lot of Debug.WriteLine statements in my code, will they be completely absent in my production version?
I mean: Is the compiler smart enough to not emit any code for those calls? Or would I have to surround them by #if DEBUG..#end if directives?
Is there a way to make the express version do a "clean build"?
Some of my project compilations have developed a problem which prevents debugging.
"The breakpoint that isn't working will display a message if highilighted with the mouse. The breakpoint will not currently be hit. No symbols have been loaded for this document."
The difference I've seen between the project folders for an app that will debug vs one that will not debug is that there is no ".pdb" file in the folder where the application to be debugged is running.Debug (F5) or "Build" no longer create this file.
Many of the discussion participants suggest deleting the "obj" and "bin" folders before compiling - on the assumption that this will "force" a "clean build" - is that supposed to be true? My express version has no "clean build" option, and deleting the obj and bin folders doesn't cuase them to be completely rebuilt.
Is "msbuild" the only way to force a complete build when you have the express version?
Also - how do I determine/control which net framework vision vs2010 express is using?[code]...
I need to write a program that requests a high number and a low number from the user, then the program searches the array and finds all elements within the two numbers. The program is used to search for past presidents, so if I type 43 for low number and 44 for high number, the program will display:
George Walker Bush Barack Hussein Obama
I think I have an idea of how to search up to a certain point, but not to stop at a certain point....Here is the code that I have for that particular sub procedure:
Quote:
Private Sub btnDisplayRqst_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnDisplayRqst.Click Dim sr As IO.StreamReader = IO.File.OpenText("PRESIDENTS.TXT")
