Arrgghh. Please disregard. No sooner do I ask for help than I fix it. <facepalm>

Okay, I'm about to tear my hair out.

Using VS Community 2015. I have a form defined with buttons that I want to appear or disappear based on data read from a table. The buttons are defined as...

A little background - I am an old VB6 guy who has inherited an application done completely in Access. We want to upgrade it to vb.net which I am learning on the fly. We want to use Access in the...

Thanks for the clarification. Unfortunately, what I need to do, I can't do with T-SQL, so it looks like I'll be heading down that path.

What I was referring to was the fact that SPs can now be written in vb.net, not in T-SQL. However, the "how-to" part of that has proven very difficult to find. That's what I'm looking for.

One of the big changes in SQL Server 2005 is that stored procedures no longer are limited to T-SQL, but can be developed in vb.net et. al.

I'm a complete newbie in the vb.net world. I've got some...

Actually, I'm going to request that this thread be dropped. I'm going to post my problem in another thread and rephrase it completely.

Thanks!

I am a total noob in the world of VB.net and SQL 2005, and have been thrown in the deep end...in a bag...wrapped in chains. :D

I've got a vb.net app that I converted from Access VBA. I've...

You da man! That did the trick.

Thank you very much!

Ok, I'm a dinosaur VB6 guy being dragged kicking and screaming into the world of VB.Net. :)

I'm experimenting with setting up a SQL Server 2005 stored proc. In this proc, I am converting a...

Any further progress? I'm looking at developing an automated mailer in VB6 and that Outlook message is a real PITA.

Ghods, the last time I drikned, I was in the hospital for 48 hours.

Build your command line in a string, then use the shell command:



dim sCmd as string

' code to build sCmd here

Shell sCmd

If it's a girl, call her VEENA.

If it's a boy, call him MEJAY.

You'll get this error if the table does not have a primary key established. Check to see if you do. If you don't, put one on it, even if you just add an identity field and make it the primary key.

For 1 - I would put the check into the code, same as checking the date range. Look at the file name and if the first however many letters match your criteria, don't do the copy.

For 2 - I don't...

1. In your project, set a reference to Microsoft Scripting Runtime.

2. This is a 2-part answer. First, if you are copying all files in a directory, or a group of files that can be easily...

Then I would suggest my second alternative. The user doesn't create an exe, they simply use yours in a data-driven mode. They would configure their slideshow simply by determining the order of the...

Glad to help. I've been there myself, where I look at something obvious and don't see it until I'm ready to pull my hair out! :wave:

I'm not sure what you are asking. I see this two ways:

1. You want the users to create their own exe files. I don't know why you would want this, but to do it, they would have to have VB on...

Possible. However, IIRC, the problem will show up if you run the mdac setup program. You've got to have DCOM installed for that.

However, if your application is executing correctly on your...

What they are warning you about is that if you run the setup package on a Win95/98 system, you'll have to have installed DCOM98 first.

Use the Scripting.FileSystemObject control. Step through each file in the source directory, build the pathname to the target directory, then execute, sorta like:

dim FSO as new...

We have a existing working application using the Lead tools that prints custom forms. We recently had a new form to process, so rather than re-invent the wheel, I simply copied the forms over into...
