I've written a few programs in VB6, just starting on VB2008. I'm also on a new machine, Vista 64-bit.
Is it possible to develop my program on a 64-bit machine and build an .exe that will allow it to run on a 32-bit machine? Does the development machine matter?
Thank you!
I have written a program in VB6.0 that has nothing to do with AutoCad. A customer called today, he has my program and AutoCad installed on his computer, when he opens my program and attempts to open a form, he gets a message that AutoCad is opening.
The code he is invoking is:
Set fJobCosts =...
No, it's not an MDI application. It's a basic form, with only the CRViewer9 on it. The form is maximized, the viewer is maximized, both in design mode and runtime, and the bar on the right button is clipped off (in design and in runtime).
I didn't even notice this until a user pointed it out to...
Thanks for checking. I do have the problem on mine. (Although it is subtle - there appears to be a right line, but it's really the moving bar to move the search control to the right - during runtime, if you move the search control, you can see the small black bar appear that belongs there. You...
Even when I widen it there is still blank space to the right of the Search Control. The Search Control is "parked" too close to the navigation buttons.
During runtime, I automatically expand the form and viewer to fit the screen, there is plenty of room. The navigation buttons are still clipped...
I'm using the CRViewer9 within VB 6.0 to view reports. (Crystal Reports v 9.0, Service Pack 3)
On the toolbar, I have the Print button, the Zoom Control, Navigation Controls and the Search Control. If I remove the Search Control, the Navigation controls display correctly (i.e., the farthest...
I posted this question in the Crystal Reports forum, but since it applies as much to VB, I'll post here in case the smart people here can help.

I'm building a VB 6 program for distribution. I'm now building reports and purchased Crystal Reports 10 (developer edition).
I'm using the data environment connections in VB6 hitting Access 97 tables.
I just learned that if I use CR designer integrated in VB, I can't preview my reports...
I just found the Crystal Reports on my Visual Basic 6.0 CD - after playing with it, it looks easy to operate.
Is it worth upgrading to the current Crystal Reports 10 version? It will be for a redistributed application, so it needs to be as bullet-proof as possible.
It looks like I can also...
paulbent - No, their table is the same as mine, and the same as all other users. I think I'm going to have to go back to the user with a new .exe with line numbers in the code to see if they get the error again.
JohnYingling - I don't know about the hours you keep, but I didn't include the code...
steveouthwaite - I appreciate any clues, whether they are the wrong tangent or not. Neither one of the two procedures called use DoEvents, but I will put in a boolean flag to stop multiple calls. I'm clueless about call stacks, but I'll check into it, thanks for the input!
I did test holding...
I have a form with a text box collected quantity information. My user (who isn't the friendliest and thinks I'm an idiot) reported an overflow error after "typing a simple '2'" in the box. I asked for his error log, and confirmed that was the error, and it occurred somewhere in this...
I'm taking the easy way out. My kids are about to get a new computer - I'll test this code on their machine. Thanks for the ideas, I'll let you know what works.
I understand error trapping, but normally I trap for a specific error. Without a specific error number I'm trapping blindly (on ANY error, skip the export to Excel).
How, in code, do I look in the registry?
Thank you!
I want to allow the ability to export a recordset to Excel - but some of my users may not have Excel installed.
Is there something that can check for the existence of Excel on a machine before I attempt to open it? I'm using great code found on an earlier thread, but my concern is that it will...
Thank you so much! The ChDir works as long as they stay on the same drive - I added in ChDrive as well to make sure it would work if they decided to save to a different drive.

I'm building an application where the data tables (Access) are stored in the same file as the application, my connection string reads:
"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=FTED.mdb;Persist Security Info=False"
I added capability to export data to Excel - it all works great...
I am building an app using two Access 97 databases as the backend. There are relationships between tables in the two databases.
I've set up one Data Environment, and made two connections to it - but when I go to the Data View and try to work with it, only the first connection appears.
