• Visual Studio Express Editions Unload equivalent

  I have just picked up VB 2005 Express and made the mistake of thinking I could brush up quickly on some old VB6 skills and get a simple program coded quickly. I have, what to me is a fairly basic question. How do you code an "Exit" button. In VB6, the code was simple - "Unload Me". What is the VB.NET equivalent Help please!!!! me.Close() me.Dispose() Application.Exit() All of these will close the application (if the form you're calling close/dispose on is the main form). Application.Exit is the surefire way to close the application. ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Publish WorkFlow as WebService doesn't work from a VB.Net workflow project?

  I have a simple workflow defined in vb.net which compiles and doesn't generate any warnings. When I right-click the project and select 'Publish as WebService' nothing happens; no web project is added to the solution but also it doesn't write any output or errors. However, if I create the same project in C# everything works as expected, and a web project is added. The workflow exists of a WebServiceReceive activity (activate = true) bound to the Start method of the interface and a WebServiceReceive / WebServiceResponse activity pair for the Status method.

• Visual Studio Express Editions Another way than WH_CALLWNDPROC

  If I'm using a VC++ DLL to create a tray icon for an external application, not my own nor connected to my DLL. Is there any other way to detect mouse clicks on that tray icon other than a global hook for WH_CALLWNDPROC I've read that a global WH_CALLWNDPROC hook can be a serious drain on system resources so if at all possible I'd prefer not to use it. If it's the only way to catch the messages I want under these circumstances then I'll do it, but is there another way W That would work if I were adding tray icons for only one app, but this is a tray minimizer app. So.... ...Show All

  Currently, we are adding a c# project to a solution that was formely code in visual basic. However it seems that every time we tried to load the solution file, all of our c# project is missing and we have to manually add the c sharp project one by one. Does anyone have an idea how to overcome this problem It's not a fatal problem but it's quite annoying after some time. This can only happen if the path's chanced.
