This sounds pretty stupid, and it's not challenging at all. There is a wave file, which is what I want to publish. Then I can't find it in Solution Explorer. And when I publish it in Clickonce, the wave file is gone, as with the Resource folder. Now I want to make the Pesource folder appear and enbedded in the excute file code, that is, there is also a "Resource" and in which there is the very wave file. This is my code. It means I want to click this button and play a wave in Resource folder.
I've been switching over to VB.net with visual studio 2010 and there is two big questions that are bothering me When I want to create an installer for my program, how do I do the following?
1. Pick the folder on C:\ drive where I want it installed? (ie c:\program files\myprogram)
2. I have about a dozen access databases and monarch models that I've created to work with my program. How do I include these in the installer?I'm not quite sure if this is a vb.net forum question, so pardon if it isn'i'm just starting here because this is afterall vb.net that i'm writing all of this in.
i have a application that i designed for an assignment which uses a DB (ACCESS) However when i publish the application it fails to load even though the application completes. I have managed to find that it is the database that is not copying over, how do i solve this (the db is located when debugging and is also in the project files)
I'm using a dll in my program, it works fine. But when I publish and try to run on another machine, it says the dll is missing.Am I right in saying that I need to add it to my references, with the Add button on the references page? When I do that, it says it's not a valid assembly or com component.
How do I fix this? My level of knowledge is very low, especially with dll's.
I have a program in vb express 2008 which I would like to publish in a little more professional manner than provided in the standard vb express package. I would at least like to include a "Terms of Use" document the user must agree to before installing the program. I have dovnloaded and installed web developer, c# and vs 2008. Do any of these include a professional installer? If not are there any free installer packages available? I am 72 and live on a limited budget so I cannot aford an expensive package for one program.
When I publish my program, I can't see the folder that I have in my solution explorer appears together with other files. I have been wondering how to add a folder or I do it wrongly. I have using this method:-Project.. add... new folder and I name it as SC1. But when I publish it, I can't see in in application files(It's not embedded together). I can't use add existing as it required me to add a very specific files (Not a folder ). As what I can see, there is not specific properties for folder sc1 (build action /copyto output directory).
Now I have finished my another really small program. I have tryed to publish in several ways but with now result. So how can I publish it easily? I will share it so I'd like to have just one "setup" file which creates the another necessary files. (or just one bigger file?) but the main thing is that I dont want to start share 4-5 files...
I get it worked on my computer, that's not a problem. But then I upploaded all of the files (4-5) to mediafire, destroyed program from my computer and downloaded those files: Program didnt worked: Sayd just "U havent downloaded all necessary files" (something like that).
Well I think it's possible also to publish to new wep site. In fact I tryed to make wep site (with www.nettisivu.org ) (finnish quite good wep-page-creater) but the same result: no results at all. If this is the easier way, how I could upload my program straight to that site? In that "wep-page-creator" the final site looks that: xxxxx.nettisivu.org and editing page looks: xxxxx.nettisivu.org/wp-admin/page.php?action=edit..... (xxxxx=my name for site)
I want to publish my program onto softpedia but the problem is, if I just include the setup file or the program file, It will say on another computer that it is missing components, how can I bundle all the resources and stuff into one EXE file. Also, how can I make my own Setup file?
I have created a program and i have managed to publish my application. I have set it up to be installed via CD but it does not attach the MSAccess DB. how do I add the DB?
I have a VB.NET program that I wish to to publish. In the code it references a HTML page that I created.Instead of having the URL hard coded (example: url...)I would like to have it relative to wherever the encoder is installed to (example: /folder/index.html)
I have finished developing a small, completely useless but working project. It was my first in VB.
What i wouold like to know is how is the best way to get this project online for download?
I dont have a web site or web page, and this project is just a bit of fun (fitness test).
Could anyone tell me the steps I have to take? All i want from it, is to be able to place a series of screen shots explaining the project and then if someone should wish to download it they can.
I dont need prime time internet coverage, just a place to put it online, pref free. Plus, there have been many kind people from this forum who have given me thier free time and effort to help me with code issues, so if I am allowed and any one is curious i will post the site link to here and you can see where your effort has gone to, and should you wish provide positive and negative comments at your leasure.
I have two slightly different versions of my VB applications that I would like to publish simultaneously. The differences are minimal and mostly include GUI and some internal logic. Incorporating changes into a single application is not an option right now.
I tried publishing and installing them separately but the latest installer always overwrites whatever has already been installed. For example, if I install App v1, then App v2, only App v2 will be visible. If App v1 is installed after App v2, only App v1 will be visible. What I want to have is to have them both installed. I am using Visual Studio 2008.
I have a game which has a chatbox in it and was wondering if its possible to create a program that intercepts the traffic going into and out of the game including whats writen in the chatbox.I am the host of the game.Basicly I want the information to be displayed in something like a richtextbox?
When I publish the program. Is there any way to get VB to publish the text files with the program so that no errors can occur. When I install and run the published program I get a series of errors relating to text files that are not found.
I have a running program which is installed in the server side and this program is running 24hrs a day. Now I made some enhncements on this program and would like to publish it. I tried to publish first in my local disk but after publishing Im having some errors "Critical error: Required processing file is missing" after clicking the setup.exe file. Now Im thinking of publishing this directly to my server. If I publish it directly to my server would it disrupt the running program? is it safe to do that? or is there something that I need to do it first?
I am working on a relatively simple program in VB.NET. I am trying to make the installation process as simple as possible for the user.I know its possible to use the executable from the debug directory as a stand alone executable, but are there any drawbacks to this approach? For example, if the user does not have .NET on their machine, the program will not run. Is there a way to publish the program so it is self-contained in a single executable file?
ive created a program in VB 2008 and i cant remember how to publish it in such a way that it includes the database that the program uses. At the moment when i publish it, it only works on my system because i have the database on my PC, if i delete the database from my pc the program messes up because it doesnt have a copy of the database in its program resources etc.how do i publish the program so that it includes a copy of the database that it needs to function?
I'm using Visual Studio 2010 and I have a Batch inserted into my project and cannot for the life of me get it to run with the program in someone elses computer after publish?
Now I did a clean build, and tried to publish, and I get a lot of errors and warnings that I don't understand.

I'm making a map creator that chooses images randomly from various sets. What I'm trying to do is set up subfolders in Resources and put the different images in each folder - e.g., a folder for streets, a folder for monuments, etc. Then I just make an array of images out of the files in the folder, and pick one.
For some reason, I can't find a simple way of getting at the subfolders. I've tried using IO.Path.GetFullPath(My.Resources.ResourceManager.BaseName) and appending the folder name to the end of it, but no luck.
Is there some other way of getting the path? Is it even possible to use subfolders of Resources? Is there a better way of doing what I'm trying to accomplish? I'd really like to avoid creating the image arrays by hand.
