Make A Little Game Using .NET 2008 Express Edition?
Aug 25, 2009I'm trying to make a little game using VB .NET 2008 Express Edition.The game is comparable to the Everybody Votes channel on the Nintendo Wii (if anyone has ever seen it). You can submit questions to a online database. Then, if the question is accepted, users can vote on it and other accepted questions. The questions are on a timer and when it hits a certain point (after a couple of days or so), the questions can no longer be voted on and the results are displayed. Since the details of the users account, the questions and the results would be in a database online, the program would also track some fun little aspects of their voting habits and stuff.
Onto my question though, how difficult would it be to pull something like this off? Especially for someone with no experience using an online database with VB .NET? I'm not foreign to the basics of VB .NET by any means, I've taken several courses with it in college and worked with offline Access databases, but taking it online is something completely new to me.

Make A Basic Roguelike In VB 2010 Express Edition?
Jun 3, 2012I would like to know the basics of roguelike development in Basic, Visual Basic to be more specific. As stated in the title, I have Visual Basic 2010 Express Edition (fully paid). I do know about variables, if statements, basic math operators (Such as addition and powers), advanced math operators (such as PI and Sqrt), nested if statements, functions, subs, and all of the other basic stuff about Visual Basic. I am most effective with console applications, rather than windows form applications. My favorite roguelike is ADOM (Ancient Domains of Mystery), which, in my opinion, is much better than nethack. I would like to make a game similar to ADOM, but I don't even know how to make the player move around the screen and collide with walls. I am also most effective with Video Tutorials, rather than written tutorials, just cause I'm not a big reader. I have seen most of thenewboston's video tutorials on Visual Basic more than once, and I have all of the basic stuff nailed down in my brain. If anyone at all can help me, or even team up with me in my VB.Net project ATOR (Ancient Temple of Redhold), it would make me so happy I would burst out in tears of joy! Btw, I have created a bunch of unfinished text-based games before in the game engine ADRIFT 5, so I do know the basics of game development.

1) Will vb.net 2008 express edition will give me idea about new features etc. ?
2) If I install vb.net 2008 express edition on machine which has vb.net 2003, will it cause any problems to vb.net 2003 ?
3) If I code in vb.net 2008 express edition, on upgrading will this same code work ?

Supress Pop-up With VB 2008 Express Edition?
Oct 22, 2009The radio recently broke in our bedroom and as a result my missus now listen to various radio stations through her laptop. She moans that visiting various pages and clicking the 'listen' link is a bit of a pain.(Note to self: Must buy new radio!)In the meantime, I have made a 'radio player' in VB 2008 Express, which is nothing more than 6 buttons down the left hand side of the 'player' I have created and a Web Browser Control on the right hand side.Clicking each button links to the relevant player of the station she wants to listen to. (Being a newbie to VB and programming, I'm quite proud with what I've achieved so far!!)Anyway, one station I do link to gives an "Are you sure you want to navigate away from this page" prompt: [URL]Is there a way to suppress this message in VB, or even auto-answer OK somehow?
The other sites I have linked to do not display this message, they just navigate away quite happily. Clicking OK on the prompt is no real hardship either, I hear you say, but in the interests of usability, I would just like it to navigate away from the site/player without prompting.Remember, I'm using Microsoft Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition.

View 2 RepliesVS 2008 Using Express Edition In New Job Role?
Mar 6, 2010Iv'e been away from Visual Basic for the past 3 or 4 years so I am a bit vague on the details that I am looking for.
I got myself my first programming job at the company that I work for and I start Monday.
The company has little programming knowledge (well I assumed this as they said they do not have a dedicated programming IDE at my interview) and relies on ad-hoc VBA scripts to perform necessary processing on data. This is all fine and I can deal with that but there is a project that I wish to work on and I think a standalone dedicated application would be much better than extending Excel with VBA.
Now after being with the company for 10+ years, I know they are conservative at spending money so asking them to buy Visual Studio is not really an option so I'm going to suggest that instead of using VBA, I will design an application using Visual Basic Express.
All I need to know is, if there are any kind of limitation to database accessing with the express editions? (Iv'e only ever used OLEDB connected to small MS Access files) I do not know what type of database the company uses yet, but I do know they use ODBC to connect to it, and rely on Sage to do 90% of their work.

lstTotal.Items.Add("Parts" & ControlChars.Tab & ControlChars.Tab & ControlChars.Tab & parts.ToString("C"))
But using ControlChars.Tab over and over again doesn't seem very efficient. The spacing in the listbox looks uneven and the code looks more cumbersome--less easy to read.
