I created a VB.Net program in Visual Studio 2010 Pro. Everything runs fine in debug mode on my developement machine. I'm using setup builder installation and cryptolicensing for the license.dll. I have checked the setup program and all the files are installed on the test pc as required. The program was developed on the 4.0 client Framework. The problem is when I install the program on the test computer it will not open or run. No indication of why no messages, nothing. Can anyone steer me where to begin to find out why this is happening.

OK, So I am making a program in Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate. I have gotten all the forms and everything correct. Except the text color. I need to make it so when they reach the end and it says if they got it right or not, that the program changes the textbox's text color. The code I currently have is when form2 = the first word in the spelling test. Form2.textbox1 is the first place where the user puts the answer. Form1.Textbox1 is where the user puts the original word.
Private Sub TextBox1_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox1.TextChanged
If Form1.TextBox1.Text = Form2.TextBox1.Text Then
TextBox1.ForeColor = Color.Green
Else

I am using in built sql server 2005 which comes with visual studio 2008 in my project.This is my connection string.SQLConnection oConnection = new SQLConnection("Data Source=.SQLExpress Initial Catalog=Fas");
When I try to open the connection like oConnection.open() I am getting error like "Login failed for this user. User is not associated with trusted connection."By some googling I get the idea that I am using Windows authentication mode. So how can I change it to mix mode authentication? I dont have separate sqlserver installed on my system. It is same that comes with visual studio 2008
I have a program designed in VB.net for a wafer probing system. The software has 3 main components that come standard and three that are options. When a customer decides not to have the three options they are disabled but still in the program. If at some point they decide to buy the options, one of our technicians would have to go there and be able to access the program with an administrative account to enabled the components.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what the easiest way to accomplish this?
My program keeps crashing every time I try to run it on another machine other than my own dev system. It runs just fine on mine but crashes on everybody else's when I install and run it. To make matters worse, it only gives me the generic "[name here] has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience". So i never can find out why and where it is crashing!!!!

I have a several C# console applications that basically parse tons of data in memory (LINQ) and output the results to a text file. Now, forget about the writing to the text file for a minute because this is not where the problem is occurring.
When I run the application in debug mode, I will never get it to utilize more than 50% of cpu usage. It will be parsing/massaging hundreds of thousands of records, but only go X fast and utilize 50% of the cpu AT MOST (as viewed in the Task Manager).
I would really like to use 100% of the CPU to make the processing go faster. Does anybody have any insight? I am running Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 3. I have Visual Studio 2008 Professional with Service Pack 1 installed. I have manually set the affinity of the process in Task Manager to a single core on the dual CPU. Sometimes I can catch it utilizing 51% or 52% of the CPU.
Trying to get it to behave like C#, where there is a Program class with a static Main method.However, in the project properties, I cannot set Program.vb to be the startup object, only the forms (it is a forms application).
View 2 RepliesWhen editing C# code in Visual Studio 2010, the ENTER key makes IntelliSense complete the current suggestion, without adding a new line. In VB.NET, the default IntelliSense behavior for the ENTER key is to add a new line after completing the current suggestion.

View 2 RepliesI have one tool which we developed on visual studio 2010. there are basically two parts of my project, one is UI part which i wrote in VB and algorithm part which is in C++ on back end. When we compile C++ part it creates a .dll which is used by my front end VB program.
Now my problem is little weird since i am compiling and deploying this tool on windows xp machine but some of the users are using windows 7 64 bit machines and after running the program for about 5-10 minutes, it crashes on windows 7 with following error
Not enough storage is available to process this command and when i view details of that error, i get the following description.

I've been working on a program that generates a batch file, then when you press a button, it executes that batch file. There are multiple batch files attached to each item in the list box.
[code]...
The only thing that it does when I press the button, is starts the batch file, then goes to function searchtitle, which executes the batch file again when it finds out it didn't work properly.The button text doesn't change, none of the items are being added to my first list box, and I can't do anything to the window after pressing the button. It constantly opens the batch file every 5 seconds or so.
Visual studio nicely provides built-in auto-complete functionality for text boxes and combo boxes. I am using the suggest method of auto complete that provides the user with a list of choices filteres by what they have type. The problem I am having is that when the user makes a selection (via the mouse) VS places the selected text into the textbox and also simulates the enter key being pressed on the textbox.In my program the enter keyup event is used to send the text entered in the text box to the a COM port. In order for this to work as desired the user must be able to select an auto-complete option and then add to it so that they can change settings.Is it possible to stop it from triggering that event or to intercept it? I am unsure if it is possible or how to determine the origin of a keypress.
Here is the code for the KeyUp even as well as for the KeyPress Event:
Private Sub txtInput_KeyPress(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyPressEventArgs) Handles txtInput.KeyPress
If e.KeyChar = Chr(13) Then
e.Handled = True
End If
[code]....
The auto-complete functionality was accomplished through the properties of the control, the only code for that was to generate the auto-complete list.
I designed my program for my screen resolution (1680x1050) with all forms in maximized mode. I gave the program to a freind whose laptop has a lower screen resolution than mine. Now on a lot of the forms she cannot see some of the controls because of the lower screen resolution. I added the minimize, restore down and close buttons to the forms of my program but in the restore down mode the form does not scale down to show all the controls on the form. How can I incorporate scalabilty into the forms so that all the controls will be visible in the restore down mode.

View 10 RepliesDoes anybody know which version of Visual Studio 2010 contains the full set of Visual Basic SharePoint Templates? I am about to embark on a project to create Visual Web Parts to be used in a SharePoint report.
At the moment I am using Visual Studio 2008 and even though the WSPBuilder is installed none of the relevant SharePoint templates are present.Having searched SO and the web, most advise to install the templates via the Visual Studio command prompt: devenv /installvstemplates
Alas the Visual Studio command prompt is also missing from my VS2008 installation.So, the question remains: which version of VS2010 contains what I need for pain-free SharePoint development? There is a rather large price different between VS2010 Professional and VS2010 Premium, so can anyone tell me if the cheaper version (VS2010 Professional) contains all the Sharepoint templates?

While I've mainly been developing small applications for personal use, I stumbled upon making a touchscreen application for a close friend. While he is not very good at programming, he is pretty well at drawing/etc... So, I thought about expanding my horizons some.I already have code that loads images from a folder, and made that folder changeable via the program, so in effect, probably a horribly coded way of skinning some parts of the program (the buttons). But then I though about it some more and really wanted to learn a better way to make my programs 'expandable'.I have begun searching about how to make a program that can be used with plugins, how to make plugins, and so on... I am researching about dynamically changing controls and other things, so that when resolutions change, I don't have to code each individual buttons new size/location, and, most importantly, a way to implement patching/app upgrades...
