I decided give up vb6 and begin use vb.net.And I'm going to update my old vb6 code.I used write a vb6 program to update my program.it's a simple program:I have a webside,I put a file in the webside,this file it's just a document(.txt),only include version number.my program use "inet" download this file(address like this [URL]and compare the version number,if this document number it's bigger than this program number,than told user you need update your program.like this:
dim ver as string
ver=Inet1.OpenURL(http://www.sample.com/info/ver.txt)

But,In vb2008,I don't know how to write those code.I search the local MSDN,it said I can use:""my.network.download" to download files,but it's only can download a file and save it as a file,I want to download a file and save it as a variable(type is long),I don't know how to write those code.

I came upon your forum while googling my problem. I respect the fact that you don't do someone else's work as I wouldn't either. But, as a beginner I have a lot of questions so hopefully no one minds.

If I modify a program of mine in some parts, adding also some settings in My.Settings and changing version, then I have to compile and create a new installer with the dear old InnoSetup.
Then I install the program, I go to see the settings ... and I see that them are the default settings stored in the MyProgram.exe.config file shipped with the new installer.
But is absolutely easy that a user would have changed the settings in a previous version (if existing) of the program.
So now the question is: during the new installation is there some clean and tested method to retrieve and update the settings set by users in any previous version of a program?

I'm about to roll out a large application to many workstations throughout the company and I've never really had the need to "auto-update" an application until now. Ideally, I'd like a "one time install" and then updates are applied without user intervention/IS involvement. (user intervention would be ok as long as it wont require a logoff or admin escalation)

I have always made a setup file with "instal creator" which have made a nice one file of my program and it have been easy to share. This time I need a chance to update my application. I read somewhere that having website is necessary or its much easier to do that way, is it true? I have worked before with ucoz/unet so I think I could use it.

I have a class as follows:
Public Class BillAmounts
Implements INotifyPropertyChanged
Public Event PropertyChanged As PropertyChangedEventHandler Implements INotifyPropertyChanged.PropertyChanged
[Code]...
However, the issue is that TOtalAMount is getting updated automatically but FinalPrice is not getting updated. Any reasons/mistakes I have done. I have tried it a lot in few ways but could not get that working. What i did not understand is that Total amount is getting updated but Final price isn't.

I'm creating part of a program which calculates vacation hours multiplied by accrual rate. As of right now all parts of the form are functioning and saving/retrieving data from a csv text file. My problem is that I'd like to bring the process out of a button.click event and into Form_Load. Currently when I click a listview item (lvwData.SelectedItems) it populates a textbox (txtAvail), then recalculates the textbox value based off my formula (hours) and updates the listview's 4th column item. To update each column daily, I currently have to click each row, then my button, then move onto the next item. I'm looking for a way to grab the 4th column, recalculate it and update the listview without having to select each row.

I may be deploying my app (its a database software for videos) to 4 - 5 computers. I want to add some new features but have the software update automatically and silently. Due to security holes or issues with bugs, I don't want to give the clients the choice to update. I just want it to check for an update and if one is available, it can SAY that its updating on a label but that's about it and it automatically updates without confusing the user or wasting any more time than it should.

I have a stand alone application "test.exe" on a Windows 7 operating system.I have an application "test.exe" made in Visual basic 8.0.I have an "Auto Update" function . Call this function from "test.exe". In the first line in "test.exe".This function does the following:
1. This checks whether the current version is older than the version on specific site, if so:
1a. Removed all *. old
1b. Rename test.exe to test.old
1c. dowload new test.exe
I'm afraid I get an error when I rename "test.exe" to "test.old" because "test.exe" is now active.How can I prevent this or what else should I do?
