• Visual Basic Reference problem in Beta 2

  We are developing a new VB .Net Beta 2 application.  This application references some DLLs that were developed in VB .Net 2003.  When I build the application, everything works fine.  However, when someone else from the project team gets the latest version of the solution from SourceSafe and rebuilds, he gets an error that says "<The system cannot find the reference specified>".  If he removes the reference and then adds it back, it works fine.  But then if I do a get of the latest version, the same problem happens to me.  The DLLs in question are all located in a folder on our C: drive with the same p ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions (Newbie) Combo box - index of current value?

  Hi I am using a combobox which had a fixed numerical value list, set up in designer. The list was : 1 First, 2 Second, 3 Third , etc I have now changed the list to text items, again just set in the designer.

So how do I now get the current selected value 'index' in the list such that if I choose the second item "Second" I get its position of 2 Have tried a bunch of things (as usual), but either get errors, or where I get a value, it is mostly -1 or occasion ...Show All

  I can open a console program (cmd.exe) through VB.NET. Now how do I enter text based commands to that console I would assume that I have to take control of STDIN and STDOUT.

  I want to implement output redirection such as "type c:\1.txt > c:\2.txt"  using the Shell command. I wrote the code shell "type c:\1.txt > c:\2.txt", vbHide but the code failed. Can you tell me what I should do Thanks     I'd know what to in C or C++.  They have a little bit od an edge there. There are process pipes called STDOUT and STDIN.
