• Visual Studio Express Editions Visual C++ Express Config Question:

  I can't figure this out. I'm using a VC++ Express Edition for some stuff on my work computer (the company uses Borland for all the work, this is a personal project). I've gone rounds and rounds with this issue now. I'm getting a list of unresolved externals that seem to be from a windows-related file or perhaps from a GDI+-related file. I'm sure it's a config issue, even though I've already set up the Express Ed like it mentions after it's been downloaded. Also, I've successfully compiled other projects, not using GDI+ (which is why it might be that). I've set this up before and had it working before I got the Standard Edition of Visual Studio. So if there's something I'm missing, I'd appreciate some direction. The linker errors are ...Show All

• Visual Basic Wizard Control using vb.net 2003

  I want to create a wizard control using vb.net 2003. Not sure where to start. Any thoughts To get started defining a wizard interface, I would say that you need the following things: 1) A base control that defines the "shell" of the wizard control, including the layout of the buttons and any graphics you may desire 2) Derived controls for each screen of the wizard that add there own UI and logic 3) A "wizard manager" control that handles hooking up the transitions between differnt wizzard screens 4) A way of passing data between the screens (i.e. a property called "Data" of some sort). -Scott Wisniewski ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista SHaring Data on PC and across the Local network

  So after about 30 setups my application actually installs on windows vista now. If you haven't tried to install a database on vista yet that can be shared amongst 2 or more users on the same machine you just haven't lived <g>. Its really fun! If you want a fun test, try to take a simple microsoft access database and install it on a windows vista machine so that 2 users can read and write to it. Despite days of work, hours of cussing and many posts on the msdn forums with other angry developers with this same issue, we actually managed to get this to work. We placed our database in a subfolder of the system defined Microsoft Common Application Data folder (CSIDL_Common_AppData) like so c:\programdata\[applicationname] ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions C# Executable distribution?

  The article "How to: Set Debug and Release Configurations", implies that its possible to create a "release" executable for C# programs under all but VS 2005 Express edition. This implies that an application cannot be distributed to and executed by users without Visual Studio to run it with. Is this true - I can't create an applciation and give it to other users Is there another way to do this Another free IDE that might be useful Give your users the .exe that is built in the Debug or Release sub-folder of the project folder. ...Show All

• Visual C++ Running an .exe file compiled in VC++ 2005 on a different computer

  Hello, I've got a question regarding how to run a program compiled using VC++ 2005 on a different computer. Although I have seen the thread by suda5181 and the answer by RonaldLaeremans (http://forums.microsoft.com/msdn/ShowPost.aspx PostID=23371), I can't find the redistribution pack for the current Visual C++.

• Visual C++ Need MFC, Win32 and Sockets in one program

  I have a need to construct an application that requires: (1) MFC for buttons, controls, etc. (2) socket communications to a simulation server with extensive return data, and (3) Win23 applications for bitmap processing for animation for drawing backgrounds and moving objects without flicker (double-buffering). I see some great examples in game programs, but only in the Win32 environment. I can't seem to do all three in one program. Starting with a program for MFC, I can produce controls and a socket (and do some simple graphics), but can't find a way to include the Win32 stuff (3 above) without losing the other capabilities. Tried starting with a Win32 application and going the other way with no success either (Win32 see ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions How to get another websites IP address in Visual Basic

  Hi there, I am currently working on a HOST File editor project in Visual Basic, where the user has to enter the word they want mapped to a certain IP address of a website.
