AAha,(like MP3 To EXE) MY Application Has To Produce An EXE At Client System.
It sounds like silly, but its great! Read this example!

My boss told me to create a SCREENSAVER application, After the application installed in client system, When the client runs MY SCREENSAVER.EXE , Everytime
It has to take 2 or more JPGE files and has to ask him produce an and exe,client stores the exe in his system and takes it to another system and it works like ordinary exe with the JPEG files it include!(Just think its a screensaver)
NOTE the output file that our application creates muct be exe and no more other stuppid stuff! No source code avilable when our application running! since we don't give it to clients.
Its a great thought, Its possible Because a software on web is avilable
"exemp3.com". HERE this software takes an MP3 file and produces an exe file! The same I want , but with JPG files.
Any one who understand please post your Ideas and If u know the answer please post me ! i'll be thousands of thankful to you!

Installing The S/w Update Automatically On Client's Machines
Dear All,

We have developed an application. The application is installed on the client's(customer's) pcs. We have to release new versions/patches of the s/w.


We want that when a new patch/version is released, client should get a pop up message(if internet is connected) and if he shows willingness to install it(by clicking on the popup message) then patch/new version should automatically get installed.

I have developed the popup window and its showing up logic.


Help Required:

1. How can i determine that internet is connected or not.
2. How the patch will be transfered from our server to the client's pc.
3. How the patch will automatically execute on clients pc(after the completion of above mentioned point #2)

Please guide

Can't Save Record In Client PC - When Installing App - Unspecified Error -2147467259
Hai,

I compiled my project created the Package using Package And Deployment Wizard.

When i run the set up in the client machine, i am getting 3 errors. i also attach the picture of the 3 errors.

PHP Code:




1. Setup Error 168
    Setup has encountered a problem updating your system registry.

2. Error Executing Action     
    REGSVR: DLL Register Server failed on 'C:ProgramFilesCommon FilesSystemOLE DBmsdaps.dll

    with  error code - 2147467259

3. Error while configuring ODBC drivers!
    Unable to register library C:ProgramFilesCommonFilesSystemOLE DB\msdaps.dll: The operation completed
sucessfully.







After installed this setup in my machine i am able to Save new records from the installed application. But when i install the same setup in the client machine , and there i see all datas populated, but when i try to add new record then the following error is coming and the operation is cancelled.

-2147467259
Operation must use an updatable query

I heard that it will happen because of the Previlleges in the shared directory, but i given FullControl to EveryOne and also to the user i install. But still this error remains.

Also i attach the picture of the database RecordLocking setting, kindly check this and suggest me , is this error occurs because of that settings or what.


<Edited After Testing> But also i tested by selecting [purple]None[/purple] in the [brown]Default Record Locking[/brown] Frame instead of [brown]Edited Record[/brown], even though the 3 same errors occurs when installing the setup in the client pc

thankyou,
Chock.

Installing Onto Another System
Ok I have a big problem, I need to install my app onto a Win 95 Box. I'm going to be doing it via floppy disks, and I'm not really eager to use an Installation Program and I don't want my app to show up in the Add/Remove Programs.

I've tried without a Setup file, using Regsvr32, and this worked fine on the Dll's but when I got to the CSocket Control, it gave my an error.

So my first question would be, is it possible to solve the Regsvr32 Load Problems??

Or can I create a setup file with only the exe and the Csocket Control and still register the Dll's manually?

Thanks in Advance.

Installing My App Onto A Win 98 System
I am having trouble installing a app, I wrote, onto a Win98 computer.
I am using the Application Wizard of VB5 to build the Setup.exe

My first problem was that the VBAJet32.DLL failed to initialize (error 3447).
This was reported to me in the ST5UNST.LOG file generated by the installation.
I read the applicable MS KB docs and rebuilt the Setup.exe file this time
including the EXPSRV.DLL file as was suggested.

During the rebuild the App Wizard complained that dependency information for the EXPSRV.DLL file
was missing. I chose to ignore the warning and proceeded (figuring that there
wasn't any, anyway).

Now, upon installation on to the Win 98 computer, the ST5UNST.LOG file contains the following message:

*** ERROR: No entrypoint for DllRegisterServer() was found in 'C:WINDOWSSYSTEMEXPSRV.DLL'
*** DURING THIS ACTION: DllSelfRegister: "C:WINDOWSSYSTEMEXPSRV.DLL"

*** ERROR: An error occurred while registering the file 'C:WINDOWSSYSTEMEXPSRV.DLL'
*** ERROR: (User Responded with 'Ignore')
*** DURING THIS ACTION: DllSelfRegister: "C:WINDOWSSYSTEMEXPSRV.DLL"


What's a guy to do?
Any and all suggestions are welcome. Thanks for taking time to read and offer assistance.

Oracle Client License

Can I Access Oracle From A Client VB Exe?
Hello everyone,

Me and a guy I work with developed an excellent standalone exe but found out no one else on our team can use it since they do not have the Oracle 8 client installed on their systems, (It is 500MBs).

Is there a way to make our app talk to an Oracle database on a remote server without installing the Oracle client on every user's machine?

-- OR --

If we have to install the client, can we customize it, and if so, which components should we include?

Thanks, hopefully I will get an answer, otherwise 3 months of work will go down the VB drain.

Oracle Client Installed On Each Pc?
Hi guys,
i have an application written in VB6 which used by 5-6 users where each of them need to access to a oracle server located in the same LAN.

My question is:

1) Is it a must each of these users need to install an oracle client in their local pc?
2) Is there any simple way to access oracle server without installing oracle client on it? or is it any driver we can used to connect to the oracle server?

The operation that the users need to perform is to search through the data from oracle server only, there are no any update or delete operation performed, thanks..

Oracle Client Software
Is is absolutely necessary to install the Oracle client stuff on the client PCs in order to use ADO to connect? I'd prefer to use the OLEDB Provider so that an ODBC DSN doesn't need to be created on each PC, but can you connect with the ODBC driver(s) without the Oracle Client stuff?

EDIT: Additionally, is Oracle's OLE DB provider better than Microsoft's, or vise-versa?

Will Installing VB6 Mess Up My System?
I have a computer that I use for recording music. There are a few specialised hardware and software, running on Windows XP. Usually installing a software or game doesnt affect my stystem.

Will installing visual basic 6 affect the system in any way, or would it basically be a standalone program without loads of junk added to the system? I'm asking because it is a programmer's tool and might be doing some major overhaul to my system during the install process.

System Error After Installing SP6 For VB6
I keep getting the following error when trying to run Activex projects from the IDE:

System Error &H80004015(-2147467243).

That's all it says. I searched the net and found references to an error that says:

System Error &H80004015(-2147467243). The class is configured to run as a security id different from the caller.

I Googled the error number and everything seems to point to an article titled System Error Message "&H80004015" When You Run ActiveX DLL in Visual Basic IDE at the Microsoft Support Site.

It basically says to install Client for Microsoft Networks (why this is related is anyone's guess) and check that the Shell is set to a single exe in the registry.

I checked the above:
Client for Microsoft Networks is installed, and the Shell is set to Explorer.exe

I strained my brain and worked out exactly when this error started.

It started after installing Service Pack 6 for Visual Basic 6.0

The error occurs every time I try to run an Activex Dll or Activex Control project.
It does not occur with Activex Exe  projects, nor with Standard Exe projects containing User Controls.

My versions are:
Windows 2000 Pro SP4
VB6 Pro SP6
IE6

Does anyone know what may be causing the error and how to fix it? It definately seems to be related to VB Service Pack 6.


Be good. If you can't, don't get caught!

Installing Program To System Problem
Hello, I am trying to install application to a system but it keeps saying that the system files are outdated and prompts to update the file, then to restart. It restarts but apparently never updates the files, because it stop at the same point saying the files are outdated. The application work fine, I can manually copy the program to another PC, so I am thinking it's the Installer. I am using the Package & Deployment Wizard from Visual Basic. I searched the forum for help, but nothing along the lines of the answer I am looking for. I saw suggestion to use other programs like Inno, Visual Installer, SetUp2GO, and some others. Ok I will go through those. But I would still like to know why I am getting this error. I have my assumptions of whats wrong, but I need to know exactly whats, so that I could fix any future programs.

One thing I assume is that I am programming on XP Pro and I was trying to install on 2000, is that an issue? If so can someone explain why? I can install on other XP machines, having tried 98. Any additional knowledge would be grateful.

if you would like to view my install www.thasaltydawg.com/aero

Will Installing To Windows 98 Harm The System?
I am preparing an installation setup package and after doing a little searching in this forum, I have discovered that some people have had damage done to their Windows 98 systems from VB installations generated by higher systems. Have you had any problems with installing to Win 98? How much danger is there in installing to Win 98? Do you think I would have a problem if I attempted a 98 install with a setup generated by the Package and Deployment Wizard as long as I stuck with the the standard package setup? I realize that it might not work due to the dcom not being installed previously, but my question is about the safety. I'm afraid to send a disk to somebody and have it mess up his system.

Problem When Installing The System On PC With Other Windows Version
I have Windows XP and Microsoft Access Component version 2.7. I develop an application using VB6, SP5. The application is using an MS Access database (version 2000). I want to be able to install this application on PC with windows 98 and 2000.

In the application I have selected the following:
Components: MS ADO Data Control 6 (SP4)
References: MS ActiveX Data Objects 2.5 Library

For creating the installation files I use the Package and Deployment Wizard. when I create the installation file everything works fine. However, when I install it (either on my PC or on another PC) I get the following error message:
"An error occured while registering the file c:/windows/system/msado25.tlb"

So far I ignored it and everything worked. Today I created a new executable file and everytime I install it on a PC with windows 2000, part of the system's functionality is lost. I did not have problems when I installed it on a Windows XP PC (OK, it still displays the error message for the msado2.5)

I read some relevant posts on this forum but since I am inexperienced to this, I am a bit confused. Could someone explain to me what I can do to solve the problem? I definitelly have to install the application on PCs with windows 2000!

Installing A Tile System. Without Actual Tiles.
Okay here is my question. I have made an app with small picture of a guy and four buttons at the bottom. (one up, one down, one left,one right)

Sample button Code:

Private Sub down_Click()
Me.Guy.Top = Me.Guy.Top + 5
End Sub



...anyhow

Is there a way that I can create an invisible grid of lets say 5 by 5 'tiles'. I want to keep the background just its green color but have maybe a 2d array that I can notify myself of which 'tile' or part on the grid he is on he is on. (its 150 x 150 pixels big) Could someone inform me of how to go about doing this?

Installation Of Visual Basic Setup File Without Oracle Client
Hello,
           I m very disturbed with this problem and I want its answer as soon as possible,
 My problem is that:-

I had designed a software by using the tool Visual Basic (Front end) and oracle (Back end). The system in which I developed this software has Visual Basic and oracle 9i client. Oracle 9i server is installed on server where there is a database whose name is deseinin. I created the entire table in this database. Then I had created its setup file with the help of “setup and deployment wizard”. When I m installing it on the system which has Oracle 9i client, my software is working but. When I m installing it on the system which don’t have oracle 9i client. It is get installed but when I m using(running ) on the installed system it is giving following error:

Run time error ‘-2147467259 [80004005]’

" The oracle(tm) client and networking components were not found. These components are supplied by oracle corporation and are part of the oracle version 7.3.3.(or greater) client software installation.

You will be unable to use this provider until these components have have been installed. "

    I did the database connectivity by using ADODC control and the code that I had written to make the connection and database access is like this:

Dim cn1 As New ADODB.Connection
Dim rs1, RS2 As New ADODB.Recordset

Private Sub cmbdname_Click()
cn1.Open "trouble_dsn", "scott", "tiger"
RS2.Open "SELECT * FROM SYSTEM1 WHERE DEPT='" & Trim(CMBDNAME.Text) & "'", cn1, adOpenDynamic, adLockOptimistic, -1
RS2.MoveFirst
CMBSNO.Clear
While Not RS2.EOF
CMBSNO.AddItem (RS2(0))
RS2.MoveNext
Wend
RS2.Close
cn1.Close

End Sub

Note: Trouble_dsn is a system dsn that I had created througn DataSource(ODOD).

Please give me the solution of this problem as soon as possible to my email id rsinha_0108@yahoo.co.in

Installing My Application
Hello! What a terrific place this is! I will be here every day looking at all the posts <drools>.

Anyway....

I am trying to discover the means to call a dialog box(s) at installation to give the user the option of where to install the program, or where to place the DB(s) that goes with it....i fear that one of the DB's may end up residing on a server...in which case...i need to be able to retrieve the path and apply it to my code...

I have studied the packaging script that is created by the Package/Deploy wizard, and it seems logical to me that the answer lies in there....Or perhaps I should dictate the final resting places of the components?...errrr...

Any pointers, hints, instruction; I would be grateful.

Installing VB6 Application
Can any one recommend which installation software is best suitable fo installing a VB6 application using Oracle 9i RDBMS.

We have been using "Oracle Software Packager" to install both Database on the server and client installations (JAVA Application). We have encountered numerous problems with "Oracle Software Packager".
I am looking at "Installshield" products. However, I am not sure whether we can use "Installshield" for Oracle installation on the server (may be we are stuck with Oracle Software Packager for server installation). We have developed a two tier application using VB6 and Oralce 9i. Oracle Database will reside on a Windows 2000 server and VB6 application will be installed on client machines.

Any help is really appreciated.

Self-installing Application From CD
HI Folks,

How do I make a VB 6.0 application (packaged using the package and deployment wizard) run from the CD and install all the necessary files in the users computer (at least to start the installation..just as in many commercial applications).

Please note that I am also including an Access dbase in the CD which has to be installed in the same folder as the app. itself.

Thanks in advance,

Vinay.

Problem Installing Application
I used Inno Setup to package a VB6 SP5 project. We are running Windows XP. I ran the setup program on a user's machine and all worked fine when I was logged onto our network under my user account. I logged on as the user who's PC I was installing on and then the program would not run. I get an "Application-defined or object-defined error" when I try to run the program. I logged on as my user again and all worked fine.

The user has complete administrative rights on that PC. I tried installing from that user's account and many of the .ocx and .dll files could not be registered(they registered fine under my account). There is obviously a permissions problem but the user has administrative rights. Even when I log on as administrator of that PC and try to install from the HD, I get the same errors where the files can't be registered.

It doesn't make sense that as long as I'm logged in under my account, the application runs fine, but when I log in as someone else, it doesn't work.

Has anyone else run into this problem? Any ideas what the problem might be? Thanks in advance!

Installing Application Patch.
Greetings! I'm creating MSI installation packages of my applications here in the office for quick installation to all users using GPO which I assume many of you are familiar about. There are cases wherein bugs and errors are reported to me that most of the time require a very small change in the code. I don't want to go through all the trouble of rebuilding the package and reinstall the program for just a very minor change in the application code especially if nothing has to be added or removed from the package. Do you guys know of a way to deploy the .exe only without going through the whole process of rebuilding and reinstalling the application? I'm using Visual Studio Installer 1.1 by the way for creating the MSI package.

Im making a Pong Clone ( Dont laugh im learning lol) and I have some custom fonts that are in the Projects Root Folder. Im wondering if it is possible to install the fonts from application or would i have to make an installer for the program which exports the fonts to the WindowsFonts Folder. (Is it possible to Copy the File Then Paste it into the fonts folder using WIN32 API calls)

I'll be grateful for any help or suggestions.
