Hi, I'm having some trouble getting the sonicwall global vpn client working with the TZ 210. I did packet capture on the sonicwall, and it showed that it is received the request (phase 1 isakmp requests) on port 500, but it drops them (drop code is 36 which means its blocked because of a...

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, none of the code is this application creates any presentations. It's simply for opening / extracting. The weird thing here is that it does recognize the slide "count" and the slide count property returns the correct number of slides, but for some reason, it...

I'm not 100% sure, but I don't think it has to do with references because I can take the compiled exe, and run it on other computers without a problem, but not on mine. All computers have MS Office 2003. Here's another piece of the puzzle. I opened the source code on another computer -- using...

Hi, We have a Visual Basic application that uses OLE automation to control PowerPoint (loop through slides, extract information, etc). For some reason, the looping through the slides portion of the code is throwing an error (but only on my computer -- other peoples computers don't seem to be...

Thanks for the help. I'll check out Inno.

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows of any products (or articles) that assist in deploying ASP applications? I've had very little luck finding anything like this. I'm looking for a tools that helps in creating a deployment package that will do things such as run SQL scripts to install a...

When working in PowerPoint VBA, I don't seem to have access to the Screen object. I'm trying to get the TwipsPerPixelX value, but can't seem to figure out how to get this value. Does anyone know how this can be done when working in PowerPoint vba? Thanks for any suggestions.

As a side note, once the movie has been played in "View Show" mode, it will then show up in design mode.

I'm adding a shockwave flash object programmatically using code "similar" to below: ActivePresentation.Slides(mySlide).Shapes.AddOLEObject 150, 150, 480, 320, "ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash.7", "", MsoTriState.msoFalse, "", 0, "", MsoTriState.msoFalse Dim obj As ShockwaveFlash Set obj =...

Oops, accidently submitted before I was done. Here are the other values in the LockPermissions table. User => Everyone Permissions => 268435456 Does anyone have any ideas as to why this doesn't seem to have any affect on the permissions? Thanks for any suggestions

Hi, I've been trying to figure out how to use Orca to change permissions on the install directory. I've read some stuff online, and tried but it doesn't seem to affect permissions. Here's what I've done so far: 1.) Created the MSI with Visual Studio Installer. 2.) opened the MSI in Orca 3.)...

Hi, I have a PowerPoint VBA application. Within this application, users store data related to games. Currently it writes out to an XML file on disk. I wanted to see if anyone knew of a way to embed this data within PowerPoint. It would be nice if they could use their PPT with this macro on any...

I found that you can do this by adding a LockPermission table to the MSI (using Orca or similar tool), but didn't find any detailed info on the entries needed. If anyone has done this before, can you point me in the right direction? Thanks

I have an MSI I created with the Visual Studio Installer. I've set it up to work "for all users" by adding "ALLUSERS=2" to the property table (using Microsoft's free Orca tool). The only issue I'm having is that I have a "data" subdirectory within the installation directory which I use to write...
