• Visual Studio Express Editions Run .exe in Project Directory

  I'm trying to create an app that runs an .exe file located in the project's directory (eg the url is "project name\file.exe"). I've tried several Process.start methods, including process.starting a method with the StartInfo.filename property set to ".\\Project Name\\file.exe" but nothing works. Please help. Thanks, Ian Sorry... wrong forum. I'm using VB Express 2005. The project is an installation wizard. (I like ClickOnce but I hate the UI of the ClickOnce Wizard so I created my own wizard UI). I published the app with ClickOnce, and copied all the pub. files into my project directory, in a folder "ClickOnce".

• Visual Basic Public Folders and Granting Access

  With .Net 2.0 Framwork the ability to update permissions to the ACL was added. The one thing that I have yet to find is the ability to make that folder and public folder and grant users permissions.

  I am having no luck reporting this bug on the feedback link. I type in all information and click "Submit" and it just refreshes the page.

• Visual Studio Life without source safe?

  I have used source safe in the past and it was very helpful. I don't have a copy of it in the place i work right now. It's going to be a while before we get that in. I just want to know that if 2 developers work on the same project (saved at a shared location) and ALWAYS work in different forms. Will this cause any problems Thanks for your time!! MSDN Premium (the level where you get Team Suite) comes with VSS, but I don't think it's on the same DVD. Team Foundation Server is pretty complicated to install -- it requires specific versions of SQL, Sharepoint, etc. -- but if you follow the instructions exactly you'll find it's well worth it. ...Show All
