I am working on a simple card game. I have done several in the past, but always by creating card images in a picturebox. I would like to call up the cards within the VISTA operating system. I get the following error:Unable to load DLL 'cards.dll': The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E)
I have made the following declarations:

I am using VB EXPRESS 2008, (for the first time). As I recall, I did not have this problem in VB EXPRESS 2005.
screwed up User Access Control, some functionality does not inherit the accounts true privileges. I built a Command Prompt application and ran it from an Admin account, but I kept getting access denied when I ran it. The only work around I can find for now to shut the dam thing off in control panel.
I am writting an application that stores data in an Access database. I can't put the files in the Program Files directory since standard users can't write to that folder. I can't use a 'user' folder since multiple users will need to access the same file. In addition to accessing the file, users on occassion will copy new versions of the file into the folder, overwritting the old file.Where should I put this file? I am thinking the ProgramData folder, but when I create that folder during the install, it is also read-only for a standard user.I'm lost as to where I should put a file that can be accessed by multiple users, that is read/write, and I can install the folder into the location. I don't think I have a programmatic way of installing a file into the Public users folder.
I posted this as a bug on MS Connect and am wondering if anybody else can verify the problem: I been beating my head against the wall for about 3 days and I don't think it is my problem.
Desktop computer - Vista 64 bit Portable Computer - Vista 32 bit vb.net 2010 express on both of them
I can not establish a connection to an Access db (either .mdb OR .accdb) on the 64 bit computer. When I try I keep getting a message that says "Format at the initialization string does not conform to specification starting at index 0." (this was typed not copied). (There are screen shots over on Connect).
I can establish a connection to a "Microsoft SQL Server Compact Edition" (.sdf) database on the 64 bit computer.I can estabish a connection to all 3 types on the 32 bit computer (.sdf, .mdb, .accdb).The 'funny' thing is that if I establish the connection on the 32 bit and copy the program directory over to the 64 bit, the prorgam loads and seems to run fine. But the %$# _(%* Wizard will not run on the 64 bit machine. Runs fine on the 32 bit but not on the 64 bit. Of course I make sure that the db's are in the location where the program expects them to be when I run the program on the 64 bit machine.
One final thing, when I am in the progam created on the 32 bit and running on the 64 bit and I try Data->Add New Data Source->Database->Dataset only two of the three connections show up while all 3 show up on the 32 bit machine. Also the connection string is incorrect for the non-sdf connection. It should include
I want to install my app or (just access db)to AppData folder to enable write for it. so, how can I do that in setup project. Is there just parameter or should I wirte custom action.
Within the application, I need to have two levels of access: Standard User and Power User,for example.These two levels can have the same access level within Windows.It is not my intention to elevate to administratoWhat is needed, is a way to have two different groups of users.ne group will be able to run the application while a second group has access to additional features within the application but not within the windows environment It is my hope that there will be two user account types: 1) Standard User and 2) some other user type such as Power User or something else that will distinguish it from Standard User

I tried running this application as administrator, even though I am on an admin account. I even disabled UAC. Nothing seems to work. I do not want to just skip the file, I want to read it.How does a antivirus program scan every file on your computer for errors? How do it read the file if Vista prevents it?
We have developed an application using Visual Basic .NET as the front end and Microsoft Access as the back end. If we run the application on Windows XP we can write records to the database but when we run it on Vista it does not write records to the database.
I'm running Windows Vista with admin privilege and UAC is disabled but still unable to write to windows registry! My.Computer.Registry.SetValue _ ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionRun", _ "Test", "C:Test.exe", Microsoft.Win32.RegistryValueKind.String)
I'm getting error "Unauthorized Access Exception was unhandled." "Access to the registry key 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE....' is denied."
I've googled the net and found that registry permission elevation is required for admin tasks, Is there away to take registry key ownership through VB.Net code??
I have a VB6 application which has been running succesfully for years under XP, however under Vista data loss has been observed.It appears that if the app is run 'as administrator' then it connects to the correct database file, however if the app. is not run as administrator then vista creates a copy of the database (no idea where) - hence I end up with 2 versions of the database.
In fact I can delete the database file entirely and the app. still works fine because vista is using it's own copy - the problem is how do I back up this 'vista copy' when I can't find it (search doesn't find it).
My pc is a Vista SP1 + VS2008 I try to import a csv file into an existing access database with the following code but I have the message that the database is only in read access and I can't update it with the csv file.I tested the code on an other pc with XP and VS2005 and it works.
I am been working on an a small app that has a Forms.Webbrowser control that navigates to a Adobe Flash program. I have developed the app on Vista 32bit platform and have had no problems. I have sent the app to a couple of people to test out and one is using Vista 64bit and is running into a problem. I know the webbrowser control just uses the underlying base framework of IE. The problem on the 64 bit machine is when the site is navigated to it says that it needs to have Flash installed. When the user goes to Adobe's site it says they need to use a 32bit browser.
As stated on Adobe site here:[URL] the Flash player need to be in a 32 bit browser. What options do I have to be able fix this problem? Is there another control that I can use that would be the same in a 32bit platform and 64bit platform? Besides navigating to the Flash program, the browser also goes to standard web pages.
I want to replace/delete imageres.dll in system32 golder in vista/7 from vb.net Note : that i have taken ownership of file with cmd in windows 7. And also note when i delete the file from windows explorer it gets deleted successfully but when i do it with vb.net it failes
I have an MSI that installs silently and I need to install it on remote machines via a VB.NET app. I would rather not use WMI so is there a builtin mechanism to do this?
I have a program called "Blue Coat K9 Web Protection" installed on all of the computers, which filter unwanted content on the internet. My problem is that every-time one of the children wish to access a website that has been unintentionally blocked, I have to enter my password to bypass the filter for that page, which can get quite annoying having to run around the house. To access the AdminCP, you have to enter an IP address in the browser on the local machine (127.0.0.1:2372)so you can change the settings.I wish to create a program that will allow me to remotely access the Admin page to unblock any sites needed from my computer.
