• Visual Basic Target NET 1.1 manually

  Hi, I've been upgrading my VB6 program to Visual Basic 2005 Express. The problem is, I have to run that program on an old Windows NT 4.0 machine. Although .NET 1.1 is supported on Win NT, I learned in the meantime that .NET 2.0 is not supported on Win NT. Is there a way to target the NET 1.1 framework from within VS2005 Express, or at least to manually download the NET 1.1 SDK and compile my VB2005Express program for NET 1.1 Did anybody do this before Am I expected to run into problems - or which functions are supported in NET 2.0 that are not supported in NET 1.1 I'd appreciate any help. Thanks, Andy ...Show All

• .NET Development Restricting Web Service to localhost

  Hi,   I am trying to restrict the web service to only respond to clients from the same server.  In other words, I am checking the ' HttpContext.Current.Request.UserHostAddress'.  I have couple of questions,   1.  Is it possible for the client to manipulate the value of 'UserHostAddress' so that it looks as though the request is originating from the local machine even though actually it is not   2.  Is there any other config way of saying that this webservice can only be invoked from the local machine Here is the code in VB.NET, Private Function CheckIfRequestIsFromLocalMachine() As Boolean ' ...Show All

• Visual Basic How do I use dot net controls in visual basic application.

  I have a legacy application that is being installed at various locations. I want to enhance the application and want to use some dot net (2.0) controls. How do I achieve this Would appreciate any suggestion. Thanks In addition, VB6 is obsolete and unsupported, as a result, if you keep using VB6, your questions will be off topic on these forums. There are forums that still support VB6, but these are not amongst them. VB6 -> VB.NET 1.0 was a complete change, while there is a degree of .NET compatibility, VB6 -> VB.NET is as alien as vanilla C++ -> C#, they are different languages. ...Show All

• SQL Server How to execute ssis package from stored procedure

  how to excute ssis package from stored procedure and get the parameters back from ssis into the stored procedure. Thanks for taking the time to respond. Permission to execute sp_oacreate has to be explicitly granted to users if they aren't to be given membership of the sysadmins role. As I understand it, if you can execute a sp_oacreate command you can run any command line using wsccript.shell. SQL injection attack springs to mind.... This approach is far from ideal and only seems to be appropriate where the users are known, trusted etc. I remember reading a forum question from a person want ...Show All

• Visual C++ Class Pointer Problems

  I have a tab-driven Visual C++ .Net program. The main window and the tab control comprise the 'root' class, and each notebook (tab) page is an child instance of a class. So, if I have 6 tab pages, I have a total of 7 classes. Each tab page (class) is inherited from the root so that I can utilize virtual functions. The Problem: I need to have the ability to send messages (Strings) between each of the tabs, so that any tab can get or give information to any other tab. Obviously I can't do this: class tab1 { tab2 *a; } class tab2 { tab1 *b; } The compiler will try to create tab1, and bark that it has n ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Necessity of using ClickOnce

  Is it absolutely necessary to use ClickOnce when deploying a VB Express program In my particular situation it is really not needful. Assuming the .NET framework 2.0 is installed on the target computer, can one just copy the .exe file from the project's \bin folder to the target computer and expect to have the VB program run without any issues I don't want to sound harsh, but, have you tried it Nothing bad should happen if it doesn't work. All ClickOnce Deployment does is install your application in such a way that only the main user can run it. It won't even install your application in Program Files like a ...Show All
