At a guess, the program is still resident in memory. Bring up the process list in task manager and see if 'Customer Database.exe' is running. If it is, then kill it.
Otherwise, check the read/security permissions on the exe and make sure you have permissions to write it.
Also, check to make sure the folder exists.

Once again, solved my own problem( that I created anyway. lol). I had an icon, that i had created, the icon contained support for 256x256 pixel vista icons, yet vs can't compile these so it spat this error. I edited my icon now all is fine.
Now for the question:
What do you suggest as the best method to validate text feilds on a form? The controls are databound(SQL). Would it be best to use masked textboxes or string validation? What is the best way to do string validation? Are there other ways to validate that are simpler and more effective?
OK 4 questions (I got carried away. lol)

If you want to validate the length of input, just set the "MaxLength" property of the texbox to something.
If you want the field to be required, user a <asp:RequiredFieldValidator>
If you want the text box to be a specific set of numbers or date. Study and use the <asp:CompareValidator>
If you want to do anything funky, check out the <asp:RegularExpressionValidator>
(checkout http://regexlib.com/DisplayPatterns.aspx)
For each Validator, if you set the "Display" property to Dynamic, then the text in the "Text" property will be displayed NEXT to the textbox control. if the "Display" property is set to None, there will be no display to the error message. The advantage in that one is that you can place a <asp:ValidationSummary> control which will display all error messages in one block from ALL the validation controls.
Play around with these things. It's quite fun

This all sounds interesting, but i'm writing a windows application. Is it still applicable.

Simply define what the user can and can't put in.
Use this in the forms keydown (make sure keypreview is enabled) to determine if it's a number or a letter:
<br />
Alpha = False<br />
<br />
If e.KeyCode < Keys.D0 OrElse e.KeyCode > Keys.D9 Then<br />
If e.KeyCode < Keys.NumPad0 OrElse e.KeyCode > Keys.NumPad9 Then<br />
Alpha = True<br />
End If<br />
End If<br />
If e.KeyCode = Keys.Back Then<br />
AllowBack = True<br />
Else<br />
AllowBack = False<br />
End If
Then use this in the field's keypress if you only want letters and other characters:
If Alpha = True Then<br />
e.Handled = False<br />
Else<br />
e.Handled = True<br />
End If
And use this in the field's keypress if you only want numbers and not other characters:
If Alpha = True Then<br />
e.Handled = True<br />
Else<br />
e.Handled = False<br />
End If<br />
If AllowBack = True Then<br />
e.Handled = False<br />
End If

Hello,
I have a checked list box. When I run the application the checked is populated. But when I click on one of the items in the list, I have to check it twice to check the item.
Is there anyway that I can do to just single click to check an item in the list.
Many thanks in advance,
Steve

Got it, Should have seen that.
clickOnCheck is the answer.

I am trying to get information on creating a virtual printer driver in vb.net.
Basically, I need the application to appear as a printer in the windows print dialog. When a text file is "printed" to this program, I have custom logic to parse the text file.
Any help is appreciated!

I need to seacrh a simple customer database. As the user types in letters to a textbox, the a listbox filled with all available options will highlight the closest option to what is being typed.
e.g. in textbox "j" is typed
Listbox highlights "jim"
When "jo" is typed the list should highlight john
How would i search the database (sql) for the closest match on the text_changed event
I am using Visual studio 2005, a dataset, binding source and table adapter.
P.S. Would it be possible to search a list box in the same method without actually searching the source.

You can filter the listbox by iterating over methods and using the string.Contains method.
select * from blah were col LIKE @param + '%'
will find all strings that start with @param.

Thanx Christian, i found an easier way though...FindString, this searches the listbox as the user types, as this changes, the listbox highlights the most relevant item, and because all my controls are databound to the same source, this then displays the correct information in the other fields i have.
Dim i As Integer = Me.lstLast.FindString(Me.txtSearchLast.Text)<br />
Me.lstLast.SelectedIndex = i

This script works great on the XP box I wrote it on but not on a Win 2000 box.
The script was found while Googling and I have added the rename sub and a few other changes to suite my required task.
I am reletivly new to dev and am not sure if the problem is win2k supporting the script or if the script needs changing.
The problem is at line 70 creating the tcp ip ports. if I take this out the script runs to completion telling me the printers are added but they are not.
I manually added the ports and re ran the script but no luck.
Please help...

Hi,
I need to round the minutes to the nearest queater of hour. For example if it is 00:07 (hour:minutes) then it would be 00:15, if 00:05 then it would be 00:00.
Any ideas how to go about doing this?
Many thanks for your time.

you can use an if elseif then statement to accomplish this task or even a select case. Are you pulling the time from the Now function and if so then you will need another var to hold the rounded time value.

Hi,
I have a VC++/MFC application.
I decided to move the UI to VB.NET to improve it.
I created a VB project with new interface and moved the C++ core into a MFC dll project.
When I run the application I got 'Stack owerflow' inside the MFC code.
For code details:
The C++ code does image processing using some recursive functionality, that is the point where the stack sucks up.
It happens when I passing over 4400 iterrations (the maximum is about 12000).
The recursive function looks like this
// Check for continous black areas
void CBitmapScan::CheckAround(CRect* pBound, int nX, int nY)
{
if(oMemDC.GetPixel(nX, nY) == RGB(0x00, 0x00, 0x00))
{
// Remove the pixel to avoid duble-check
oMemDC.SetPixel(nX, nY, RGB(0xff, 0xff, 0xff));
// Set new bounds
if(pBound->left > nX) pBound->left = nX;
if(pBound->right < nX) pBound->right = nX;
if(pBound->top > nY) pBound->top = nY;
if(pBound->bottom < nY) pBound->bottom = nY;
// Check up-down-left-right
CheckAround(pBound, nX + 1, nY);
CheckAround(pBound, nX - 1, nY);
CheckAround(pBound, nX, nY + 1);
CheckAround(pBound, nX, nY - 1);
}
}
Why this happening?!
Thanks in advance

I'm creating this asteroids-like game in vb for this vb class that I'm in and I need to be able to have multiple keys performing their functions at the same time. I am currently using the preview key down event for each of the keys but with that if you have one key pressed down and press another one it stops performing the operations of the first key. My professor said i needed something like asynchronous key detection but I couldn't find anything on it in the searches i did. Can anyone help me out?
