Starting Up Vb Express And Running Any Vb Applications?
Nov 19, 2009
i am a casual user of visual basic express 2008 and use Vista Home Edition Ive been using it for a while now, with no problems at all. Recently i started to take a look a WPF in my apps, again no problems.(visual basic express ran fine, debugging ran fine & finished apps ran fine)
However for some reason (and all of a sudden) i keep getting errors and none of my apps will start up.
The errors are:vshost.exe has stopped working (I get this when visual basic express starts)PresentationFontCache.exe has stopped working (I get this when visual basic express starts a wpf app)
(Application Name) has stopped working (I get this when running finnished apps)I've tried all the usual methods (Reninstalled VBE & .Net3.5)I cant see why it has stopped working all of a sudden?

I am working on a Windows Service application in VB.net 2008. The main objective of the application is to monitor starting and stopping of applications listed in a file. I build the service as system level by using
mManagementStartWatcher = New ManagementEventWatcher("Select * From Win32_ProcessStartTrace")
AddHandler mManagementStartWatcher.EventArrived, AddressOf

I've created an application that is supposed to map a network drive as soon as it starts using this basic sub:
Private Sub DesktopAssistant_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
'ElevatePrivileges()
'System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("batch\mapfs.bat")
[code]....
Here is the code for the MapDrive function:
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices
Module map_unmapdrive
Public Declare Function WNetAddConnection2 Lib "mpr.dll" Alias "WNetAddConnection2A" _
(ByRef lpNetResource As NETRESOURCE, ByVal lpPassword As String, _
[code]....
It works perfectly fine when I start the application, but when I do RunAs and start the application as another user, the MapDrive function does not seem to execute. Everything else in the application works when running as another user, just not on-load events.

I'm just starting out with VB and have downloaded and installed VB Express 2008. I'm researching and trying to wrap my head around programming in VB before I start working on any projects. I have a little bit of experience with ASP Classic so some of the syntax looks familiar, but I can't get a handle on database integration. Let's say I am creating an address book. Each installation is a stand-alone (no network connectivity). How are databases used in this situation? Are they built using VB Express and packaged into the installer or can you create them separately (using either Access or MySQL) and then package them into the installer? What is needed to read and write to these databases? Are there extra bits of software that need to be packaged into the installer to allow access to the databases?
What if this application does connect to a centralized database (let's say a MySQL or Access database on a web server). Is the connectivity handled the same way? Sorry for so many questions, but I just can find the answers I'm looking for when searching. I'm not necessarily looking for the actual code to do this, just an explanation of how it's possible (or even a link to some examples/tutorials).

I have created an application that will run several other Engineering applications from within it.
I have my main form which will have a button on it for each application that has to be run. All the other projects are complete and have their respective '.EXE' files, which I have added to the main project.
I have coded one of the buttons to start an application, this is as follows;
Private Sub btnCoordsCalc_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnCoordsCalc.Click
Process.Start(My.Computer.FileSystem.CurrentDirectory & "Hole_Coordinates_Calculator.exe")
End Sub
This method works OK and does start the application. So my question is; Is this the correct way to do it, or should I import the whole project into my main project?

I have created a main application form that has buttons that start up various other applications.
Following advice on here from a previous post, I have imported all the files of each separate application into the main application.
There will be times when the user wants to run more than one of these applications at the same time. I know you can just import the '.EXE' file of each app, and you can then run several at a time. But because I have all the files without the .EXE, you can only run one at a time, you have to close one app to start another.
My question is simply; Do I have to import the .EXE file of each app, or is there some code I could put in my main form that will allow me to run more than one app at a time? (the reason for having all the files of each app is so you can make any alterations without having to open each app separately).
The code below is a typical code for one of the applications start buttons, all the buttons codes are the same, apart from the app name, the buttons are imported, so not standard buttons.
Private Sub btnCoordsCalc_ClickButtonArea(ByVal Sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles btnCoordsCalc.ClickButtonArea
Dim frm As New frmHoleCoordinateCalculator

I have created a simple windows forms application. I would like to be able to connect to that running application and view certain properties from a seperate windows form application. In VB6 I would have run the first application and then called GetObject to connect to the instance. Does anybody know how I could do this in .Net. I'm guessing I'd have to use reflection to get a list of applications running and then somehow connect to them but I'm not sure how to do this?

I am running a client-server application and am having problems with privileges (I assume). The application is developed using 2005 Express. The Client is running Win XP Home whilst the server is running Win 2003. When the user on the client has Admin rights on the local machine, everything is OK; however when the user has only User rights, an error occurs: VB will not run.

Using any version of .NET how do you find out which zone a particular share is classified under. I am having a problem identifying if a share where my referenced dlls reside is in the "intranet zone" or "internet" zone relative to some user machine that is running my .NET application. I suspect this is a problem because I am having a problem accessing referenced dlls from a share on some machines but not others. How can I tell which zone .NET is classifying that share in so I can adjust permissions accordingly?

Here are my questions concerning VB 2010 Express:
1. I've registered my VB 2010 Express, will it still expire?
2. Will the applications I made using VB 2010 Express expire after some time?
3. Is it OK to write my code in the designer.vb file? I don't know why, but when I started writing my application it took me to the designer.vb instead of form1.vb code.
4. I've been working on an application for a week now, but suddenly I can no longer access my Design View(Shift-F7). All my codes are written on the [form name].Designer.vb. I can still view my codes but I cant access my form layout. On the solution explorer, my forms no longer have the 'form icon'. When i press Shift-F7 nothing happens. Right-clicking the form on the solution explorer doesn't show 'View Designer' option. How can I fix this?

I am in process of writing a setup program that will reside in a USB stick.After inserting the Stick the VB2008E program starts (dont know how) and guides the technician to do certain tasks. As a part of this She/He needs to run a Setup.exe that resides in the same USB stick.
1- How do I define the drive letter of this USB stick.
2- How do I run the x:Setup.exe program without exiting the VB2008? The install process should begin after click of a button.
3- Would Autorun work on USB drives to run the program automaticaly?
4- How do I compile to make a single EXE file at the end?
