Subject: [dba-VB] Where is the .net directory
Message-ID: <000001c4f13d$301b6fa0$677aa8c0@ColbyM6805>

I have Visual Studio 2002.  I had the .net framework 1.0 installed (came
with Visual Studio I think) and was having problems updating Visual Studio
to get the .net framework 1.1.  I had 1.1. installed on my system but Visual
Studio didn't "see it".  I uninstalled both 1.0 and 1.1, then loaded 1.1
again (from Windows Update) and the 1.1 SDK.  Now Visual Studio says I can't
open my projects because it "can't find Visual Basic, the framework
directory not found".  Dows anyone know where the framework directory is,
and how to tell Visual Studio the path to the framework?

I'm looking through the events for vb.net controls and am finding a TON of
"changed" events.  Does anyone know if every dynamically modifiable property
raises an event when the property changes at run time?

Hi John:

I am at the same stage you are at but I just finished reading a section from
a .Net book about how to add your own events to controls.... It is in a WROX
book called Beginning VB.Net 2003, in Chapter 10-13; 'Building objects' and
up to 'Creating your own Custom controls'.

Jim,

I understand that controls are "just code" in .net and thus you can inherit
them just like anything else, adding whatever you wish to them.  What I was
specifically referring to are all of the "Changed" events listed for (for
example) the text control.  Go into the Editor, select a control in the left
hand combo and drop down the right hand combo.  Notice all the XXXXXChanged
events where XXXXX look like the names of properties and stuff.

It looks like all (or many) of the properties that you could change
programmatically fire an event when they are changed, which is pretty cool
actually.  One of my frustrations with Access (VBA) is that you never know
when a property changes (not enough events).

Don't know for sure but in VB 6 you could open the project file (*.vbp) in Notepad and see/edit the references there.  Maybe you can do the same with the *.sln or project file?

Haven't moved to .net but with VB6 when bringing in forms or code I always
save as to the directory where the project is saved.  All forms, modules,
classes, etc are then in one project directory and all changes from that
point on get saved in the project directory and the original code is left
untouched.

I was looking at moving my SysVars to VB.Net.  I found an "address book"
project in the VB.net book I am studying that builds and maintains an
address book stored out to XML.  It is AMAZING how easy this stuff is with
.net.  You build a class that serializes an object, then inherit that object
in any class that stores your data.  That class can now export / import
(serialize / deserialize) any property that is read/write for any object
that inherits the serializer.  Feed the data class to a class that opens a
file and serializes / deserializes an object and you now have data read or
written somewhere (to a stream).  In this case the stream goes to disk, but
it can go a lot of different places - FTP, Encryption etc.  

Three classes (SerializableData, Address, AddressBook) and the form and it's
done.  Each class is tiny.

This stuff is simply amazing.  Oh for the day I understand enough to program
as easily as I do in Access / VBA.

What I can do though is modify this to be a Sysvar system.  Plus keep it
around as a template for other such needs.

Don't know for sure but in VB 6 you could open the project file (*.vbp) in Notepad and see/edit the references there.  Maybe you can do the same with the *.sln or project file?

I am trying to import code from a book into an existing project.  The
project is in one directory, the code for the book in another.  When I
imported the code it just left the code out in that dir which isn't what I
want'  I want the class file in the project dir.  Now I can't seem to
"unlink" the file out in the book dir.  Anyone know how to find the list of
all the classes and things in a project and "delete" pieces?

Haven't moved to .net but with VB6 when bringing in forms or code I always
save as to the directory where the project is saved.  All forms, modules,
classes, etc are then in one project directory and all changes from that
point on get saved in the project directory and the original code is left
untouched.

I was looking at moving my SysVars to VB.Net.  I found an "address book"
project in the VB.net book I am studying that builds and maintains an
address book stored out to XML.  It is AMAZING how easy this stuff is with
.net.  You build a class that serializes an object, then inherit that object
in any class that stores your data.  That class can now export / import
(serialize / deserialize) any property that is read/write for any object
that inherits the serializer.  Feed the data class to a class that opens a
file and serializes / deserializes an object and you now have data read or
written somewhere (to a stream).  In this case the stream goes to disk, but
it can go a lot of different places - FTP, Encryption etc.  

Three classes (SerializableData, Address, AddressBook) and the form and it's
done.  Each class is tiny.

This stuff is simply amazing.  Oh for the day I understand enough to program
as easily as I do in Access / VBA.

What I can do though is modify this to be a Sysvar system.  Plus keep it
around as a template for other such needs.

Hi John:

I am at the same stage you are at but I just finished reading a section from
a .Net book about how to add your own events to controls.... It is in a WROX
book called Beginning VB.Net 2003, in Chapter 10-13; 'Building objects' and
up to 'Creating your own Custom controls'.

Jim,

I understand that controls are "just code" in .net and thus you can inherit
them just like anything else, adding whatever you wish to them.  What I was
specifically referring to are all of the "Changed" events listed for (for
example) the text control.  Go into the Editor, select a control in the left
hand combo and drop down the right hand combo.  Notice all the XXXXXChanged
events where XXXXX look like the names of properties and stuff.

It looks like all (or many) of the properties that you could change
programmatically fire an event when they are changed, which is pretty cool
actually.  One of my frustrations with Access (VBA) is that you never know
when a property changes (not enough events).

Hi John:

I am at the same stage you are at but I just finished reading a section from
a .Net book about how to add your own events to controls.... It is in a WROX
book called Beginning VB.Net 2003, in Chapter 10-13; 'Building objects' and
up to 'Creating your own Custom controls'.

HTH
Jim

I'm looking through the events for vb.net controls and am finding a TON of
"changed" events.  Does anyone know if every dynamically modifiable property
raises an event when the property changes at run time?

Jim,

I understand that controls are "just code" in .net and thus you can inherit
them just like anything else, adding whatever you wish to them.  What I was
specifically referring to are all of the "Changed" events listed for (for
example) the text control.  Go into the Editor, select a control in the left
hand combo and drop down the right hand combo.  Notice all the XXXXXChanged
events where XXXXX look like the names of properties and stuff.

It looks like all (or many) of the properties that you could change
programmatically fire an event when they are changed, which is pretty cool
actually.  One of my frustrations with Access (VBA) is that you never know
when a property changes (not enough events).

I am trying to import code from a book into an existing project.  The
project is in one directory, the code for the book in another.  When I
imported the code it just left the code out in that dir which isn't what I
want'  I want the class file in the project dir.  Now I can't seem to
"unlink" the file out in the book dir.  Anyone know how to find the list of
all the classes and things in a project and "delete" pieces?

Don't know for sure but in VB 6 you could open the project file (*.vbp) in Notepad and see/edit the references there.  Maybe you can do the same with the *.sln or project file?

Haven't moved to .net but with VB6 when bringing in forms or code I always
save as to the directory where the project is saved.  All forms, modules,
classes, etc are then in one project directory and all changes from that
point on get saved in the project directory and the original code is left
untouched.

I was looking at moving my SysVars to VB.Net.  I found an "address book"
project in the VB.net book I am studying that builds and maintains an
address book stored out to XML.  It is AMAZING how easy this stuff is with
.net.  You build a class that serializes an object, then inherit that object
in any class that stores your data.  That class can now export / import
(serialize / deserialize) any property that is read/write for any object
that inherits the serializer.  Feed the data class to a class that opens a
file and serializes / deserializes an object and you now have data read or
written somewhere (to a stream).  In this case the stream goes to disk, but
it can go a lot of different places - FTP, Encryption etc.  

Three classes (SerializableData, Address, AddressBook) and the form and it's
done.  Each class is tiny.

This stuff is simply amazing.  Oh for the day I understand enough to program
as easily as I do in Access / VBA.

What I can do though is modify this to be a Sysvar system.  Plus keep it
around as a template for other such needs.
