New To Visual Basic Studio 2005
Hi everyone!

I'm new to visual basic studio. Is there anyone who could help me with a problem (which is huge for me!) but probably small for your guys.

I found out how to make a certain form open when clicking a button. Good for me!!!

But it stopped when I tried to put a combo box on a form. I have a data connected to my project. also made a dataset that would suit filling needs for combo list.

I made a custom query inside tableadapter.
Just how can I see all the data.

I Access that was easy as it could possibly be.

Thanks for your comments in advance

I'd appreciate your help very much.

Be well!

Visual Basic 6 & SqlServer 2005
Running 2 sql server 2005 databases. Using same program to go to both databases. 1 Database is running on a Windows XP Pro machine the other on a Win2003 Server machine. Run an update against a table on the XP machine and it works, the update against the Server 2003 machine does not update the table. ?? Are there different configurations for different OS's? What are the possibilities for what is happening? Do I have to code differently depending on the OS?
Again the same exact code is being used to run the update in both places.

Thanks.

Visual Basic 2005 Forms
I am currently learning Visual Basic 2005, I have experience using Access and VBA. In Access I can drag a table or form inside another form, and Access links both forms/tables. The result is that a sub-form is created, and when the primary record is changed, related records are shown on the sub-form. I tried to do this in VB 2005, but records are not sincronized (each table shows all it's records). Does anybody know how could this be done inVB2005? Thanks.

MySql And Visual Basic 2005
Hi, I am writing a program to utilize a MySql DB on another server over a tcp/ip network.

Should I use ADODB.Connection

Thanks,
Chad

Hi, everyone. I am a Visual Basic 6.0 newbie and I a experimenting with creating a Standard Calculator. I woul reeeeally like it to behave exactly like the Windows Calculato in that the number buttons behave the same, the display behave the same, the memory store text box behaves the same.

However, I don't want the calculation of percentage to be th same. I want it to be like this:

Suppose you want to find 40% * 200 (40 percent of 200).

I want the calculation to be like this (these are the buttons t be pressed): 40 % * 200 =

This should give the correct answer of 80

Can someone pleeease look at the code and modify it with simpl variable names and easy code to get all the functions of th calculator correct and send back the code to me.

It would be really appreciated.

The appearance of the calculator is just like the Window Standard Calculator.

What Is The Visual Basic 2005 Express Edition???
I was just looking on MSDN and found this page for Visual Basic 2005 Express Edition . It is not clearly defined as to what it really is or if it replaces or adds to anything.

What is it???

Visual Basic 2005 Express Beta
I just downloaded the beta of VB Express 2005. I was messing around with it and I found out that some things are very irritating considering the fact that I come from a VB6 environment that I thought you all should know about.

1. Most of the names of some controls that we are accustomed to in VB6 are totally changed around and I found it hard to find some of the controls. Frames, for example, are the same thing as something like 4 different controls in VB Express 2005 that each have different names.

2. The code has changed quite a bit from VB6 which we all knew was coming considering the fact that Microsoft is aiming more towards their .NET architecture. From what I can tell by looking at the code, each form that is added to the project is declared in the code by a corresponding class. Then the sub procedure has changed from the simple ones we had in VB6. This is the way it looks in VB Express 2005:

VB Code:
Public Class Form1 Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click WebBrowser1.Navigate(New System.Uri(TextBox1.Text)) End SubEnd Class

That was part of the tutorial program they had you write that did a web browser. I don't know if it's just me but I think that they tried to make Visual Studio a little too user friendly and in turn took away from the ease of learning the language because if I have to re-learn VB because of all the new APIs they put in there to make it user friendly, then I quit programming VB. If someone would care to share their feelings on the matter or whatever, post back.

Shortcuts For Visual Basic 2005 Express

SQL Express 2005 Replication Via Visual Basic
Is there a way where you can programmatically (via visual basic) replicate two or more SQL Express databases located on multiple computers without the need of SQL Server 2005 acting as a publisher. From what i understand this is a limitation in SQL Express.

Right now i have SQL Express installed on 2 machines. I am able via vb to communicate with each database, read and write data between databases but cannot seem to figure out how to perform a simple replication.

Thanks

How Do I Add My Access Database To A Visual Basic 2005
May be I am asking the wrong question so please be patient with me I am a newbee at this database lark!
I have created a form in visual Basic 2005 as a windows application project and would like this to replace the switchboard in my access datbase.
1. can this be done
2. If so how do i go about inputing the code.
3. If I create a button on the visual formis the coding the same as with access switchboard forms buttons.

The other problem is when I create the application using the wizard in visual 2005 will it hide the database from the user, because all I want them to see is the switchboard to appear as if just a program on it's own.

Any help on this project much appreicated.

An Introduction To Programming Using Microsoft Visual Basic 2005
Hi there, I'm a computer engineering teacher for a grade 10 class in a school in Ontario, Canada. I am currently using the book called "An Introduction to Programming Using Microsoft Visual Basic 2005" (Author: Beth Brown) to teach my class with. Grade 10 course for computer engineering is for beginners and people who are still new to VB or have limited knowledge of VB.

My question and request is if anyone has the answers or codes(or know a source to) the excercise questions in the book. I need this for my class and for myself in the future for classes in following semesters.

If anyone knows this book, I'd appreciate the help.

Can Visual Basic 6.0 Use SourceSafe 2005's Web Service Capabilities?
I installed Visual SourceSafe 2005 on my machine and it works fine with my Visual Basic 6.0 as far as regular LAN integration is concerned. I wanted to know if there was any way for Visual Basic 6.0 to make use of the remote check-in/check-out capabilities in SourceSafe 2005. From reading the documentation it seems to me that the service is not actually accessed from within SourceSafe but rather from within Visual Studio 2005. Is there any way I can open up a SourceSafe 2005 database over the internet through SourceSafe 2005? If it is limited to access only via VS 2005 then I am not quite sure how I could grab my VB 6 files...

I was not really sure where else to post this so if it is in the wrong place let me know and I will post in the proper forum.

Visual Basic 2005 Express (executing Proprietary Scanner Application)
Anybody Help please?

I have built a VB 2005 Express project which I would like to code an event to launch a scanner (TWAIN device) software/application upon demand (i.e. PanasonicUserUtility.exe). I've invested in Viscom's ScannerActiveX which offers easy "drag and drop" of an actual prefabricated form design and code. It provides a quick and easy way to capture image from all the TWAIN compliant scanners and webcam devices (and Export & Print BMP, GIF, JPG, PNG, TIF, PDF files) at a click of the mouse. "Great!" you say? NO. My problem is that this prefabricated control panel form for the devices does not behave with my users scanning devices & software (HP Director for example).
Bottom line: Is there any event code ya'll can share so that my user might click a toolbox object (button) and it launches a specified .exe utility? (Such as: open "C:PanasonicUserUtily.exe" as...)

neither can i use the following code

I'm sure that this is pretty elementary, but I'd really appreciate some help.

Visual Basic 2005 &"express&" / Properties Stuck!
I get the properties window stuck on Procedure attributes of the control I click, rather than it's properties... Maybe it's just something about VB ever since the first .NET version that I don't get... Please help!

I don't know if this beta error, but I doubt it, because it happens all the time and would be a too obvious bug not to be fixed...

Visual Studio 2005 BUG
I installed VS 2005 and i tried to create a new project but it didnt work I got an error :
(Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007B)
As I looked for it in google i found that i causes because of "&" character in the path of project. That was true my username has "&" character in its and path was for ex: C:Documents and SettingsX & Y.....
I defined the project and templates directories as another path which doesnt have a "&" in it. But it still doesnt work
Do you know this problem and how can I solve it?

Visual Studio 6.0 & 2005

Visual Studio 2005
Hello Everybody,
I have an AAS degree as a Programmer/Analyst that I received about 2 1/2 years ago but I never went out and pursued that career because the job market was next to nothing and I was already making pretty good money at the time. I have been programming Databases like mad for the past year (for my own enjoyment) and I am thinking about changing jobs.

So this leads to a couple of questions.
I am pretty green in the programming lingo. I am using Visual Studio 6.0 Professional and I am wondering if it is pretty much outdated. Should I go out and buy Visual Studio 2005, and if so, should I be getting the standard or pro edition? What are the differences between these two editions? I basically want to do database programming with VB, C#, and maybe C++ using the jet engine. Plus I want to be able to use all of the components that are offered in 6.0 Professional.

Plus, what exactly is .NET and what is the difference between Visual Studio .NET and the other versions?

I appreciate any response but please keep it pretty basic. Everything looks like a sales pitch on the Microsoft website so I would like to hear from some experienced people.

Thanks,
Fat_Lip
