• Delly Compiling your code - Express vs. VS2005

  Hopefully someone can shed some light on a bit of confusion.  The Express Edition FAQ says that you cannot compile a completed .NET website into .dll(s) (either to a single DLL like .NET 1.1 or multiple "per page" DLLs as I've seen in 2.0.)  However while recently attending a MSDN course the instructor said that both the Web Express and full VS2005 will allow for compiling the code upon deployment. Which is right   Is compiling up ...Show All

• Volhv48 creating array of controls (labels) in VB Express

  Hello, I'm trying to figure out how to create an array of controls in VB Express. I've read that somehow there's an automated way to do this (as in VB6, I presume, but I've never worked in VB6 either), but I can't find anywhere that describes it. Basically, I have a table that I've created on one of my forms that is 18x20 cells. It would be really helpful if I could use an array to populate my table rather than having to write 360 lines of code ...Show All

I'm totally new to this, so I don't know how it works to specify what X ...Show All
