Thnak you Thanks for the advice... I really want to upgrade and just wasn't sure about what would happen if I did in terms of a new learning curve... you reduce my anxiety well. John M

Don't Laugh. I want to upgrade to a better version of .net but something that isn't so far advanced than my current version (Visual Studio 2003) , that I would be lost, something that is better though. What would you recommend to go to next from this version? Thank you for your advice John...

That makes alot of sense.. I dug myself a big hole.99% of my logic is in the forms. Would an example of what you are saying be like creating a CALL statement that goes out of the form to a module for a calculation or a selection from a datagrid? John

Thank you for the leads. Its vb.net. As you can see, I'm not very good yet in understanding terminology. It sounds like I could convert the existing forms I have in the vb.net app to web forms in ASP.NET and maintain the functionality (selecting and saving to databases, sounds,images, dropdown...

I have created a neat visual basic app.In it are 25 little Access databases that the user selects things from. The costs of each selection is added, subtracted, divided and totaled. Finally all the selection totals (25 of them) are saved in one database that the user can come back later to...

Do you have a ball park figure on what it would cost to convert a .net app to the web? The app involves 25+ small databases, about 20 forms, and very basic calculations (like interest on loans, add, subtractions), it does update 3 databases within the program. I can provide answers to whatever...

I know this is a real basic question. I am serious. I have created a .net application. I already sold some on CD's which installs it on their computers. QUESTION If I wanted to sell this by subscription lets say, and have buyers use the internet to use it, does this mean I need to have the...

This is an old thread, I hope you will still reply. I just saw a copy protector called Softlocker.net Something like you pay so much a month, you download their software, use it to lock up your .exe file. Send it up to their server. Link it to your web page where you sell it. When someone buys...

I am using VS 2003... I am creating an application. When I run it in debug mode and I click on the exit button I created on a page in the application, it shows my coding with the debugging off, BUT when I run it again and click on a button that opens a page that loads a data base and THEN click...

Thank you very much... I will look at infralution... your point is well taken on cost versus how motivated is someone to steal (copy) it. Good idea. Sincerely John Matthew

I am not sure if this is the right thread. Other than Desaware, are their other good software that prevent users from copying .Net appliactions. I will be selling an app and need to keep users from copying, at least make it difficult and at the same time not be alot of work for the user to...

Thank you for your reply. I have been using PC Guard. What I don't like about it is that the purchaser has to email back 2 numbers, then I have to email back a 24 hexidecimal number which they have to enter in order to activate the software. This can be tiresome. I will look at your suggestion...

I will.. Thank you very much.

Does anyone have experience with copying protection and code protection of a .net application? There are so many vendors selling their protection schemes, they all say they can prevent copying and secure code from being seen it's difficult to chose. Thank you for your help John M

I have a VS .net application. Somehow before I ended the night working with it, I somehow moved many of the files out of the main folder. I found this out the next day and went crazy looking for them when I had a problem running the app. When I opened the main folder, it looked like all the...

Thank you very much for your advice. I didn't really think about that approach. It does make sense to try the Express and see what I can do with it and if positive then go further with an upgrade. Like you said maybe 2010 could be ready. I want to say that this forum is very responsive to...

Thank you for that idea. Unfortunately I am no longer in school. I am excited to use something more powerful that I currently have. Thank you for your thought!! John M

Thank you very much. That's what I nneded to know! JohnM

Thank you This is going to sound stupid to you... but the Visual Studio I am currently using is the student ed. of Visual Studio 2003. I know its bad. BUT I am created some good apps on it. Would I be able to import them into VS 2008 without alot corrections/changes? Thank you John M

Real Quick. I am a novice so I think Visual Studio 2005 is a good start? I seen a price for the standard edition for $87. Is this possible? If Not where can I buy it and what is a reasi\onable price. Thank you John M
