Hi: How can I share the Main Module1 between projects? I have project1 in vb.net and contains Module1 (Sub Main of the application) project2 in C# in project2 I have a form1 class that contains a subroutines that need to reference 6 variables that are declared and instantiated in the project1 in the main Module1. Module1 at present is been compiled as Class Library, plus will be a reference of project2 and because I need this variables referenced from project1 it wont compile of course because they are not declared.
I've recently noticed that a solution can contain multiple projects. I'd like to know if I can create a form that exists in multiple projects, so i can edit one form (or class) instead of six, and have it published in each one of them separately? I hope that makes sense....I seek not answers, but understanding, that I may not solve, but learn. What good is a fish without the skill to catch it?
I have a working Windows Forms app (split into an EXE and a few DLLs). Now I've been asked to look at creating another app (MyAppLite) that has only a very small subset of the functionality. Think of it as similar to MS Word Viewer vs. MS Word.
Everything that I need to build MyAppLite is contained in the main solution - essentially I need to use a couple of the WinForms and whatever bits in the DLLs they call into.
What would be the best way to do this?
I was thinking of creating another Project in my solution for MyAppLite, then adding the necessary source files as links (using Add Existing Item > Add As Link in Solution Explorer).
I definitely wouldn't want to maintain 2 copies of the source code. FYI it's a .NET 2.0 VB app, using VS2008.
I've had this problem with both VS 2010 and Visual Web Developer 2010. I want to save my projects on a network share (which I have as a mapped drive), because our network drives are backed up daily. For some reason though, VS only shows local drives when I try to save a project - all my network drives do not show up.
i have a module which i wish to import in several projects. is there anyway i could do this? the current method that i'm using is that i'm copying over several modules in all the projects i'm doing and if i had to change a single module i had to replace that module in all the projects, that is quite troublesome
I would like to know how can I have the same module in many different projects. The trick is that I want to be able to modify that module only in one place and still be used in all the projects.
i started with 1 solution, 1 project a usual. Then i did it again, different project. Then, i wanted to have the 2 projects in 1 solution - so i copyed the project folder from solution 2 into the folder of solution 1 and added as existing project the project 2. So far so good.
Now i have a module with some public functions in project 2, that i want to use in project 1 as well. So i added to the solution a class module (some classes i want to share also) and i moved the module, (that i want to commonly use) into this class library. But it seems wrong - my application does not find the function again.
I have no idea what is going on here but it is strange to say the least.I created a new solution in VS2008Pro under windows 7 This solution has 2 projects one for the pc and one for a CE based device.There is one class module which is shared between the 2 projects.In VS2005 under xp this same basic project worked fine but here I am seeing error messages that appear out of no where.
Example the CE portion flags 3 lines initially 1 related to a file i.o function and 2 others related to socket methods. All three of these were supported in VS2005 using framework 2.0 which is the same framework I am using here. This is just the tip of the ice berg however.If I attempt to run the code it runs fine for the pc client and of course not for the CE device. If I make any kind of change, add a line, comment a line or just add a comment I get lots more errors with odd messages that are not even valid.
In one case after I saved it jumped from 3 errors to 30, in another case to 50 and yet another to 144 errors yet the only errors that were present were the original 3 that were flagged.The ide threw errors like Try Catch must end with matching End Try.Get no longer supported ' apparently referring to the binary file get but here it is used as the get portion of the property.Get must end with matching end get.It also started complaining about functions and data types.For example saying "an is not declared" pointing to the word Boolean Or telling me my functions are not declared point to only 1/2 of the function name.
I do not see any errors in the code and it reports no errors in VS2005 under XP.As a test I tryed adding a new property to the project after it was telling me there were 144 errors. I allowed the ide to do most of the work and when I hit enter the errors went back to 3. Then I saved the project and the errors went to 105 pointing first at the new property just created.
the project uses a submain as startup object which is located in a module, thy so the application will be started in tray. Within the main() event i need to deserialize a xml file and with it set the properties of a class and then set what the application will do.The problem is, after I deserialize it and put set the property values I try to get them in the same event(main) but when it gets the value it returns as nothing(if string) or 0(if integer) but in the debugging i saw it setting the values.Is there a way to do that, within the main() event of a module to set the properties of a class and then get them without being nothing/0 ?
I was just practicing some coding and noticed that I was able to use class instead of Module in VB .NET. So I replaced my module to class and I got this error message:No accessible 'Main' method with an appropriate signature was found in 'practicevb'.practicevb
I made sure that the startup object was set correctly in Properties > Application > Startup Objects.The error message disappears if I change it back to Module but I would like to keep it class since the other parts of my code I changed to class and didn't return and error messages.

In VB6 I always wrote my apps using Sub Main as the starting point. I see in .NET I'm able to wrap it in a shared class (see [URL] for example). However, the downside is that I can't declare any class-level variables, because of course the class is never instantiated. Being shared, it limits what the code can do. So, any benefit to use a shared class and shared sub main which I'm missing here.
Otherwise it seems using a module (as in VB6) provides a lot more flexibility. Of course, I should also ask if "Application Framework" is really the way to go for real-world apps, or if it's only there for beginners and real-world coders turn it off and use Sub Main instead? If so, how are the events "UnhandledException" and "NetworkAvailabilityChanged" done if App Framework is turned off?
I have a function in a module that returns a datatable.I need to call that function asynchronously and get the results in the Main thread (Main Form) in vb.net.
I was a vb6 user, done a few projects only with forums Now i am moving to vb.net(vb2010) and i have some trouble.Lets say we have a form(form1), a module(mod1) and a textbox on the form1.
i want to start a Sub (DoWork) in the module but in a new thread.
Dim Thread1 As System.Threading.Thread Thread1 = New Threading.Thread(AddressOf mod1.DoWork) Thread1.Start()
The DoWork sub does some stuff and when it's finished i want to change the text of a textbox1 in the main form and start another sub (DoWork2) on the main form under the main thread not the one DoWork is running under.
Plese do not refer me to another post that mighe give me a part answer, try to explain to me what i have to do and why.
I've been searching for the answer for a while but can't find it yet. Basically so far I have a simple VB.Net form with one button.I would like to make a class or module that can handle events from the main form. This is my code so far but it doesn't seem to work.
I decided to make a module to store all my Sub's for populating a TreeView on my main form. My question is, how do I make the Module.vb where I'm storing these Subs recognize the TreeView on my main form? I'm going to create subs such as this:
Public Sub Populatetest() Dim _GeneralNode1 As TreeNode = TreeView1.Nodes.Add("Test") End Sub

My app works fine on the development machine and 3 other machines. However, some machines just show the main login box and then fail to show the main screen. There is no error message. I installed VS 2008 express on on of such machines and when i compile the project, the following errors appear:
Type 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Access.Application' is not defined. Type 'dao.DBEngine' is not defined.
I have a solution with more than one project and the main project contains buttons to open forms from different projects that are in the same solution. Say Project1 is the main project and Project2 is the different project that gives the following error when i compile it:
Error 3 'Sub Main' is declared more than once in 'SystemInformation': SystemInformation.Program.Main(), SystemInformation.My.MyApplication.Main(Args() As String) System Information II
I have already seen other threads with this question but it does not work for me because i have more than one project.For Project2: Application Framework is disabled and the startup object is "SubMain".
How to start vb.net application from a shared file in LAN I mean that the application is installed in my PC but I want other users to get access to this application using my shared file.
i am working on a app. and i need to know how can i share floders that the app will use to save flies over the net. i was thinking about crearting a data base that would save all the files on to it , and then share the data base with fellow co workers, but i do not know how to add a excel file or word doc. in the database. i am pretty new to all of this so any help would be great. the app is writen in visual studio 2010.
basical it will let the user access the file he needs to compelte his work off shore. the files are created and saved as he needs them. once he is finished, i need the app to send the floder to some type of server ( dont have a server yet) so that the office and other co workers can see the files when they run the app.
I've looked in System.IO. but I can't find anywhere to get the unc share name of a path/drive.Anyone know how to get the unc share name of a folder, i.e. 'O:MyFolder'.
