What files do I need to include when I share my published VB form. I see in the "Application Files" folder there are all my version that I have published. Do I need to include all these or just the most resent with the Setup.exe?

As the title says, I have a program written in VB.net 2010. When I use the publish feature it creates a manifest and setup file that install the program nicely on another PC, but I think the security settings are somehow wrong because it sits there for ninety seconds upon launch. The program works fine on the computer that built it. There is no CPU usage while it is sitting around.
View 1 RepliesI have a simple app that reads from a very large text file, and returns a value if a string is found. I can instruct users where to download the file, and where to put it, but it would be nice if I could embed the file with the publish, so that the program knew where to look by default.Getting users to download a seprate file is painful. This file has 1.4 milion lines of text. I really need it to look for the file in a predictable place and be able to run against that by default for most users. I can have experienced users browse for a new file, but most people aren't into that much thought.

I am trying to locate the runtime install for Visual Basic 6 Runtime Extended Files. I am not a developer just the guy truing to get it onto the systems for them. My question is simple anI hope the answer is the same. We are converting our systemsfrom Windows XP to Windows 7 and we need the extended runtime modules so a number of our applications will actually work.
I cannot locate the install for this in the Visual Studio download area. Is the re-distributable part of the studio install (so it should be on one of the developers systems) or do I download it from somewhere else.

C:Users medinaDocuments estenviromentTestfolderfile20-1111.doc
I have a text box on my form where a I would enter a string of text which will replace the '1111' to whatever the string is in the text box field.
So for example, On my app, in the text box field, I would enter 2222, then when I click on button1, it will rename file1-1111.doc to file1-2222.doc, file2-1111.doc to file2-2222.doc, etc.....

how to sort the group of files in the directory using Hashtable by values?
i'll have more than 500 no of files in the below format:
prod_orders_XXX_<TimeStamp>.dat
XXX = symbol of the product and the length may varies.
<TimeStamp> = date and time
Multiple files for the same XXX are possible with different time stamps.
Here are some examples:
prod_orders_abc_20122001083000.dat
prod_orders_abc_20122001083111.dat
prod_orders_xyz_20122001093157.dat

I have an issue with creating a VB program. I reference files on my computer that are displayed in a webbrowser in the program. The issue comes when I install the program on another computer because of the file path. The program is looking for the files on the computer I created the program on because of the file path, instead of looking for the files within the program resource files.
For example, I created the program on Computer A and referenced File "C:ComputerAMy DocumentsHelp.txt"
Once installed on Computer B, the program doesnt display the image because it's looking for "Computer A" in the file path.How do I correct my programming so that the files are universial and can be found on any computer the program is installed on?

I am trying to delete rows of an .sdf file using the Database Explorer utility of Visual Basic. When doing so, I get the following error message:No rows were deleted.
A problem occurred attempting to delete row 1.
Error Source: Microsoft.VisualStudio.DataTools. Error Message: The row value(s) updated or deleted either do not make the row unique or they alter multiple rows(48 rows). Correct the errors and attempt to delete the row again or press ESC to cancel the change(s). It is correct that the data in the rows are not unique (and not supposed to be; there is no "error" to correct), but why should this prevent deleting them?

In a discussion with another programming student I was asked if I knew what external files are and how they are used with VB? Before coming here I referred to my VB tome, searched the web with Google, and looked at other VB forums without finding an answer. I would just like to find something that explains what "external files" are. I have already read something about "reference files" but reference files do not appear to be the same thing as ext. files

View 9 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?
