    Visual Studio in VB Express?

    I have VB Express 2005. Do I also have VS Express? When I select New Project, the Visual Studio templates do not appear.

    Aspx files won't open. Using VWD.

    I didn’t find a group for Visual Web Developer, but this is ASP related. I have been using VWD for a week or so and all was going well. Then I received an error message, but now cannot get it to reappear. It went something like: “An error was encountered when loading the document….Will be...

    View test page in browser not working.

    I have installed the Visual Web Developer software. I had previously installed SQL 2005 Express and VB 2005 Express. I am running Win2K. When the setup for the web developer ran, it did not ask if I wanted to install the .NET Framework, the MSDN 2005 Express or SQL 2005. This seemed correct to...

    Direction/help needed with forms and menus

    I’ve looked through past posts and maybe I saw the answer, but I am not sure. I am wanting to use multiple forms that use the same menu. In other words, the menu items would be the same across the top of the form for ALL forms (including a “StartUp Form”). This is pretty basic Windows stuff...

    Adding New Records and Tabbed Pages Q

    The client number is four digits (1000, 1234, etc.). I set the Compile Option Strict to “ON”. It was Off. I still get the error message: “InvalidCastException was Unhandled.” With the added line of “Conversion from string "" to type 'Integer' is not valid.” I tried changing to CShort from CInt...

    Adding New Records and Tabbed Pages Q

    The following code is for the “Add Client Information” form. (There will also be a separate “Change...” and a separate “Delete…” form. If I can just get the Add, I think I can get the others.) Each of these forms will have three tabbed pages: “Basic Data”, “Additional Info” and “Work History”...

    Every form own connection? -- Take 2

    After spending way too much time on wondering about the issue of if individual forms needed their own connection to a server and doing a bunch of reading, I have come to the conclusion that yes they do. Each time a connection is made, something is done with the data retrieved (something is...

    Every VB form need its own connection?

    First, thanks for your help and patience. I understand what the error " ‘<<<receive error message “Value of type System.Data.DataSet cannot be converted to String” is telling me. I do not understand why it is telling me this. I thought that the function GetData was supposed to retrieve the...
