-- Yes so it does, my dear friends, guests, admins and also the members as well...
Who is paying you to write this program in VB6? I would like to discuss the sale of a few bridges with them.
I've just invented a solar powered washing line they might be interested in. They only cost twice as much as standard washing lines so I think there'll be a market.
I also do a line in left handed dinner plates.
.............................................. So you're "drawing" your forms in .NET with Visual Studio 2010, coding with VB6, and all of my work has paid off?Quote:

I'm gonna use the OCXs to be placed on the Form, instead of learning a new language...
You're dead set against anyone ever actually using your program other than yourself, aren't you?
No, of course not...
Question: How do you make an Windows EXE File, using Visual Studio 2010??? Can you please go through the steps, one by one???
!! Thanks in advance !!
U dont!! EXEs are made everytime you run the program.
-- I mean for my .NET App, which I have just finished working with. (I just embedded my COM Objects, into it and then hey presto ,, It was finished. However I must do this all the time, when working with my COM Objects from now on.)
Here is the whole QuickDirector VisualBasic COM Project, that I am working on, right about now. Also can someone please help me in using the Built OCX, to be added into a VB.NET 2010 Project. I think that I am missing something in the writing of the Project File, as such as the Control's CLSID address. That was what my Local Computer Store, told me to find out and then to add that into the special preferences for the Project...
!! Thanks in advance !!
I'll bite.
Any OCX Controls you use to wish with .NET need to be re-written ground-up. Ask these guys for details.
Most people reading this thread don't use VB6 (anymore), so I doubt anyone here can help you with this. Not to mention that you don't listen to any advice you get, unless people tell you what you want to hear.
For years people have been telling you that you should stop using "On Error Resume Next", yet you keep using it almost everywhere. Every time you don't know how to fix an error, you simply put "On Error Resume Next" at the top of the event in order to hide it, instead of fixing the error or adding proper error handling.
Most controls don't have a proper name. Combo31_Click and Check18.Enabled mean nothing to anyone.
In your code you read/write/copy/delete many files, but never check if they exist or if the user has the correct permission. You have been told many times that you should use the FreeFile function instead of hardcoding the file number (#1). All your paths, for example "c:\temp\project1\director\menu1.dat", are hardcoded as well, which no doubtly will lead to problems sooner or later on other computers.
Microsoft is not going to take you seriously when you give this code to them. It's obvious that you are not learning anything, because you keep making the same mistakes over and over again. This means that other people will not learn anything from your code either. In the end you will be the only one using this code.
Sorry if I sound a bit harsh, but I know you won't listen anyway, unless I tell you that you are doing an excellent job.

Or just having the lot smacked out of him...
Right about now: I am getting an error at RunTime of the .NET Project that has the embedded COM Objects, in it. It says: "Cannot display any non-modal Forms in this type of Project." Oh what to do, I now ask you that??? And the error number code, is a: "406." If that makes it any easier in knowing what kind of error, I am getting. Can someone please help me with this problem of mine???
!! Thanks in advance !!
I think that error means you need to rewrite your OCX files into VB.NET.
Actually I found out that it was asking me to remove all of the Unload MainForm commands, and also the End commands, in conjunction with anything like an App.TaskVisible, etc...
I have the project working in some sort of .NET Projector that I have been able to write for the COM Project. Look it works, really well. So then there is not a chance in the world to change it, because it works right. However there are some sort of problems, that go with the two commands, and they are: The DIR and also the OPEN VB6 commands. They have to be worked on, and then fixed so that they work properly inside the Projector...
PS: I got one of the Projects, working inside the .NET Projector. It's name is: QuickBrowser. Which is the very same one that was from the COM Project, I just placed it in a COM OCX File and then placed it into .NET as a COM Object. Then compiled the Project and then wrote some of the code, to work on the Projector. The Source Code that I wrote the Projector with, you can ask for it, if you want to use it in your .NET Projects. You have my word, that you can use it if you want to use it, please ask for it...
Well, some people say it's not the end that matters, but the journey to the end.Quote:

need, not want. IMO the OP 'wants' to learn VB6 whereas he needs to learn dotnet.Quote:

This is the wrong forum to ask for that kind of advice. I thought you must have realized at least as much after so many posts here.Quote:

Yes I know, that...Quote:

At this very point in time: I am now converting my VB6 Projects, into COM Controls. Thus being able to import them as .NET Projects. This means that they are also very well and truly compressed, in deed. This is very good news. But then it makes a lot of time, for writing the Control. Which in actual fact is the very same one for each of the VB6 Projects...
I've been looking at my Source Code in VB6 COM and then discovered that there aren't any kind of Automation Errors, to deal with. But then when I run the OCX File, in VB6 COM to get a handle on the Errors. But then it then comes up with an Error Code of "440", which then means that there is an error with the Source Code. I have been looking in the Debugger, and found nothing as to where this type of error can appear. Also it isn't telling me as to where this error is appearing. So then what do I do, when dealing with this type of error code???
I have never been able to deal with an error that cannot appear out of the Source Code. Also it is telling me that there is an error with the ActiveX Control Object, that I have been able to write for the VB6 COM Project, which is thus named: Visual Suite SX. Don't worry about the name, it isn't going to stay. It will then be able to be renamed after the Project has been able to be released, as such and then the like...
!! Thanks in advance !!
As someone has already told you, the error means it needs to be rewritten in VB.NET.
I hate to hand out serious advice, however this is not what people meant when they said you need to use DotNet.Quote:

Heck, he is dead too! Can't we find someone else of the stature of these two so we can blame the errors on them?

This is not what I meant at all by switching to .NET, what you are doing is taking an old, semi-useless at this point language, and putting it in a new, very useful "Projector" that has a completely different and better language that comes with it. By doing this, you are creating excessive amounts of fail, and because of this, I feel that you should have you're laptop/computer/toaster removed from your possession and given to an infant Chinese boy, so that one day he can use it for something at least half useful.\Quote:

I refuse to further give to good advice until you tell me your Nationality and the first SPEAKING language that you EVER learned, or the one that you can use correctly.
Portuguese to English is very rough, so I could understand why you don't listen when anyone tries to help you.
Or maybe you are the Yotamarker...
You only need to know the previous one. All the other ones are known for the things they did-or-did-not-do-and-if-they-did-it-wasn't-them-and-if-it-was-you-can't-prove-it-and-if-you-can-then-they-just-write-a-book.Quote:

Ok let's say that English is your first language(hard to believe since i am using it better and it's not my first language). Then the next logical question that comes into mind is how old are you.If i had to guess i would probably say...errr....Six?Am i close enough?
And if you tell a fib we should start asking you about women(girls for your) and then it would be difficult to hide your age!
Well I am: 32 years old...
Well, to be extremely fair, English isn't my first language and I can speak / write it better than many other people, so that really doesn't hold water.Quote:
