• Visual Basic upgraded os, now can not find .dll

  I work for a company who just recently updated their OS from Windows 95/ 98 to xp. The most important program they run was custom made and worked fine in the older OS. When it is run on XP it has an error before it even opens saying "Run-time error: Dxinit.dll not found" . I have talked to the original programmer who said that .dll was custom made and needed to be upgraded already to work on 98. My question is this, how can I get the new OS to see this .dll and run the program I have the VB project files and all the info for installing and compiling. "I have talked to the original programmer who said that .dll was custom made and needed to be upgraded already to work on 98." ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Run As Administrator in Vista

  I have an application that requires Backup and Restore Privileges. The application enables these privileges and works find in XP but, when executed normally as an Administrator in Vista, the application fails. The Call to AdjustTokenPrivilege fails with ERROR_NOT_ALL_ASSIGNED. However, when I right click and run as administrator the call succeeds and the apps works. This brings me to my questions: 1. Why would an app not run with the privileges of the person that executes it (an administrator user in this case).... Vista Security 2. How can I work around this I would imagine there is a local security setting the I can change to allow the app to run with the privileges of the user I would be curious if this setting exists but, it ...Show All

  Hello, I just published my application for ClickOnce deployment to my web site.

• Windows Forms Deployment from a website

  Visual Studio 2005 Professional: I successfully used a Setup project to deploy my Windows project from a CD. Now, I would like to have users download it from a website. Do I simply compress it to a zip file and upload that to the website You should be able to stick it on the website and have people run the msi. You may have security issues that the zip file would work around but otherwise, zipping the msi package isn't necessary.

• Visual C# Parametrized Query in Visual C# 2005

  Hello, I have a problem in setting a dynamic query in my application.
