2 Questions.

1:

Can i run progs that are made with BETA2 of VB.net (Beta2 of the framework) run on PC's that use verion 1.0 of the framework?

2:

In the new project windows there's something called 'new console app'. How does this work? Can i make server software with it just like it's done in C++ or is it something different? Also how can i add winsocks?

Thnx

1) No..Must be complied in 1.0 to weork on 1.0

2) It means console app. As in Dos console.

Winsock: Refer the post named Sockets.

1.) But, you can easily re-compile your assemblies on any PC with the .net framework (from command line).

No, it's a true Win32 Console Application, which couldn't be done in VB6 unless you binary patch your compiled *.exe...:D

Dos console was the only way i could easily explain it...Dos only exists as a Win32 console now anyway.

LOL i know that not all console progs are DOS things. I just want some help with the console thing. How can i add stuff to it and how can i add a Winsock. I can't find it in refferences....

I made an emulator for an online game in VB6. However i have some difficulties with it. Sometimes it just doesn;t wanna send data so i want to try out VB7.0 and check if i can get it to work there.

*Something else, how do i get ridd of the .NET framework. I installed a never version and now my BETA2 won't run :-( I know it's my own stupid mistake but is there any way i can save it without having to re-install everything (My CD2 is broken)

[Cander]

your Beta 2 what? exe? Yoo have to recompile for the final framework.

write to the console

console.writeline("blah")


you need the socket class..refer to the post called Sockets.

JpEgy,
I'm afraid you're out of luck :(
You can remove the new Framework, but I don't think your VS Beta version will work again, until you reinstall it.

Salvation is only $90 away (if you only need one language).

yah and the download is just 1.8GB away :-)

[Scott Penner]

as that all? :D

hmmm i just uninstalled the thing but i cant get framework 1.0 from my comp. When i click uninstall on the software tab in config. screen it returns 'can't write to register'

Anyone has a clue?
