    Re: VB command line

    You can also build an application that will manipulate files through the windows program... Is it specifically an antivirus program that you wish to make, or just something that manipulates files?

    Re: VB command line

    assembly language will operate in real-mode -- Or you could write the changes into a batch file and run it before windows loads.

    Re: What IS Assembly??

    Good point. But I have successfully compiled programs with significant errrors such as no terminator in a string or calling the wrong memory location.

    Re: What IS Assembly??

    I simplified. Sue me.

    "BIOS" or "Basic Input/Output System" is, indeed, relevant to interrupts. From mnemonic "Assembly Code" you can call BIOS interrupts or DOS interrupts. In fact, DOS...

    Simple and useful. I'll do that next time.
  6. Re: VB.NET 2005 -- "build" does not work as expected ...

    Well, it's the only method that has worked for me thus far. Is there a way to make a button in one form activate a control in another form?
  7. Re: VB.NET 2005 -- "build" does not work as expected ...

    possibly resolved. Tried a third machine, where it works as designed. My new theory is that the test computer did not have the. NET framework.

    Okay, so I went to every form and deleted the RealPlayer control, which I was calling "Real1". Then I imported COM framework controls, and used the Windows Media Player control, which I called...

    Re: Where is the Basic, in Visual Basic?

    Actually, I think that something like that sort of existed... I'm referring to batch file programming.

    It was originally intended to just allow programmers to debug a batch of applications at a...
  12. VB.NET 2005 -- "build" does not work as expected ...

    Hi, Folks.

    When I used VB 5.0, I had a handle on the "Build" process. I'd make an .exe and put it on the machine I wished it to run on. If it required copious data or reference files, I'd either...

    Good Morning, BTW.

    On Edit:
    I am able to test the database connection successfully, which is my best result with databases to date.

    Where would I look for an option to force x86 only?

    I found VB.net 2005 available at a reasonable price, and I wanted to buy a full version (i.e. not an express or "Learning Edition" so that I could be certain that it would compile stand-alone...

    I apologize for the oversight. It seemed very generic to me, and so I dismissed it/forgot it without thinking that it might make sense to others. My error.

    Thanks, DBasnett, it looks like this points me in the right direction. I still have some fine tuning to do and some debugging ahead, but I am passing data to and from, at least.

    I don't personally know, but I think that since it pertains primarily to TCP/IP, the RFCs would be a good place to start. University of Ohio used to have a good set of online RFCs.

  38. Re: VB2005, how to refresh labels/textboxes

    Thanks, I finally settled on the "Sleep" method after trying a few tricks for "do while loop" and "for i, next i" but had trouble getting the timing right.
