• RussellH Can't Get VB6 Serv Pak 6 to install in Vista RC1

  Has anyone gotten VB6 Service pack 6 to install in VISTA RC1 I tried and it errors out with some cryptic error about a missing file and quits. VB shows no sp installed and programs that were created with SP6 installd on XP will not run in the API on Vista RC1 with an error message "Component missing". Has Microsoft a fix for this We have lots and lots of custom written programs that we will have to maintain and support on VISTA (if installed) and there seems no way to do it because the service Pack 6 can't install. Scott, I'd like to keep track of issues with VB6 installing on Vista. You were trying to get this working on RC1 and you received errors. What build did you get it working on Thanks, Ch ...Show All

• Rajasekaran Ponnusamy Array list

  Hi all, i have stored several class object in an arraylist. Example: arrList1.Add(aClass) May i know how to check/see or print the item in the arraylist this is because I need to know what data is in the arraylist. Here is a sample which is very similar to yours showing creating objects and adding items to an arraylist from a dataset and then verifying the contents are correct. As I dont know how you are determining the items are all the same - if its by the fact that there is a messagebox which is showing each iteration of the loop. This is going to show you the first item of the arraylist everytime. Possibly changing this to something like MessageBox.Show(intw1.Count) or MessageBox.Show( CType (intw1.Ite ...Show All

• zx5000 I'm making a conversion program...

  For those of you who know me, I've finally settled on an idea for a program. It converts (for starters) from anything that ends with meters (you know, centimeter, millimeter, kilometer) into anything else that ends with the word meters. You get the idea. I'm useing combo boxes, and I need to assign values to the names in the box, so they can be multiplied. Like, the selection (this is exactly what it looks like) "centimeter(cm)" needs to be assigned the value 0.01. How do I do that, and make it so that when one thing from one box is selected, and one thing from another box is selected, and a button is clicked, they get multiplied together Thanks. What you can do is set the entry in the combo b ...Show All

Any suggestions Thanks! The Object Test Bench is available in Standard (I have standard, and I have Object Test Bench). The only thing mentioned as being only available to Professional and Enterprise is the Class Designer.

• Vincent Fournier What's the difference

  Ok folks, so I've got a program that runs code that has a FOTRAN dll that (thank god) I finally have working, for the most part.  At least it does when I pass it the path/name of a file that I've created using notepad.  Buuuut, that's not gonna cut it when it comes down to it.  What I've done is created a GUI that creates an input file for FORTRAN and all it does is write a line of text for each input in FORTRAN.  But when this VB written file,written using streamwriter or FileSystem.AppendText (I wondered if there might be a problem with the streamwriter making hidden characters but no), is passed to my FORTRAN dll and the methods native to the FORTRAN code attempt to consume the data, I run into an interesting problem ...Show All
