View 1 RepliesI have a simple vb.net project that outputs a dll. In order to build this project, I have to reference some 3 3rd party dlls by manually adding them to the project and then building.
What I want to do now is auto build this using a app called CruiseControl. . . I have been told that in order to use the 3 3rd party dlls, I have to modify the .proj file to include the .dlls. The thing is, where in the proj file do I include this
and how do I do this? I think I may know where the section is and I have included it here:
[code...]
When I run the auto build program it fails (it runs through but fails at compile time); when I build this manually it works when i refer the dlls. What am I missing to make this work?
I have a label that reads a random line from a text file and that string becomes the text for the label.
Now the problem; the label will only work if it is clicked because the event handler is click.What I need is this to work automatically at startup. In other words, it should change the label's text to the random string of the text file on startup of the application.
Here is my code.[code..]

I want to programmatically change the Startup and Recovery options in Windows Server 2008? To be more specific...
- I'm writing my application in VB.NET 2.0 using VS2008
- I want to enable "Automatically restart"
- I want to set "Write debugging information" to none
That's it. I found a thread that speculated it might be do-able using System.Management but after looking through the documention in the library I can't find which might do that.
Note: It looks like this might be possible using BCDEdit (which I could call through a Shell command) but I can't find the syntax for that either. I only mention it because that would be a solution to my problem if it can't be done internally from the program I'm writing.
'm working on a Windows form application using VS 2008. I'm starting to get more and more forms in my application. There are times when I would just like to view the form I'm working on. Is there a way to view a form without having to change the startup from to the form you want to view?

View 2 RepliesI'm trying to create a 'trial version' for a software of mine, currently it is pay-only. Basically the most efficient way I can think of is to simply change the startup form of the trial version after 15 days. The new startup form will simply be a request to register.

-How can I ensure that this cannot be changed afterwards (so it isn't easily pirated).

I am currently building a system in SQL Server 2005.
I have a table that holds information about certain insurance schemes such as overheads and other things. These values will change occasionally and currently I administer the database straight through the management Studio.
I would like to build a simple interface that will allow my colleagues to change these values by selecting the company in a dropdown and the current values will populate. They can then edit these values and submit them to the database.
Is this possible in the current Visual Studio supplied with SQL Server 2005 or do I need to get another product.
I've been trying to reuse my bosses vb.net buildpacket code which he has successful used for Serial programming eg. SerialPort1.Write(buildpacket(useraddress,252,"0006","0") for the function listed below.My challenge.Create equivalent functionality for Socket BeginSend() which requires a byte array.Whether modifying the vb.net below or getting a c# equivalent to work, it has been repeatedly recommended to scrap the string concatenation approach for which I have to use Encoding.BigEndianUnicode.GetBytes() and then getting rid of extra bytes with zero values.
I'm lacking in imaging something different which would work for socket programming directly and allow me to eliminate all the hassles that c# integer conversions into string value that can be encoded trouble free.I would need to call the equivalent of the following that would return a byte array rather than a string with the following arguments
1. Source address (0-255)
2. Destination address (0-255)
3. Function code ("0001" through "0100")

I can hide my startup form (or make it appear hidden) on startup. I can start my app on windows startup--through registry values--if the user checks a checkbox.
But if the app starts up on windows startup, I want the form to be hidden, so the program can just keep working without bothering anyone. If it starts up because the user started it, I want the form to be showing, because the user probably wants to change some settings or something.
I don't understand why I can't change forecolor for my textbox. The code seems to me correct, is there any reasons why color won't change in a form this is sub procedure to change color[code]...

View 11 RepliesI am using the MS Chart control (version 3.5.0). I have added it by using the designer (drag and drop). I removed the default "Series1" from the Properties -> Series -> Collection so that the chart contains no data. I am adding the data at runtime based on a canned query to a SQLite DB. Like so:
Dim SQL As String = "SELECT * FROM ageLength ORDER BY month"
Dim cmd As New SQLiteCommand(SQL)
Dim SqLiteConnection1 As SQLiteConnection = New SQLiteConnection()
SqLiteConnection1.ConnectionString = "Data Source=" & My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath & "DataUserData.db3;"
cmd.Connection = SqLiteConnection1
[Code] .....
The data is displayed on the Chart, however, it is a Bar type graph. I set it to use the Spline type for both series.
I have 4 Lists:
varList : variable List
tagList: description List
minList: Minimum number with variable
