    Project compilation

    My application has references to many other assemblies which compile and run perfectly within the Visual Studio IDE. However, a line compiler which uses the Compile Class (and has worked well generally) is now unable to find a reference to an assembly (although reference to the same assembly...

    Refreshing a refence to a DLL

    I have a large project which has reference to a DLL which is compiled programmatically from within the main project. The DLL is created from a user modified file and is therefore deliberately changing prior to the execution of the main application. Whilst the compilation is working fine using...

    Referencing the control of a calling DLL (or EXE) from the called DLL

    Dissappointed still no response on this. All I am trying to do is get a chart in a form to update dynamically. I presume someone somewhere must have done this. The only difference is that that the form will be in a different assembly than the procedure that called the form and is supplying...

    Question Question on Reading Material

    Yep trial and error works great. Also don't worry about doing things in order. Explore what you are interested in. When you find a need for a function or tool...that is the time to find one and figure what works for you. Trying to learn something before you know how to use it is more...

    Question Question on Reading Material

    Hi it's just my opinion as I am fairly new as well but I did find the Microsoft video courses very helpful. I am sure there are others but they are very well structured and I learned alot. In the end you have to just keep trying (practice makes perfect) and do an online search for an error...

    Question Compiler error with Namespace referencing...

    So the best approach is keep hacking forward as best I can? Is that what most folks do under these circumstances? What is your advice?

    Question Compiler error with Namespace referencing...

    Many thanks for taking the time to reply John. The reminder of the feature to "View in Object Browser" was very welcomed and definitely saves time in figuring what members are available to what Namespaces rather than having to open those assemblies etc. Howeevr, it didnt actually move me...

    Question Compiler error with Namespace referencing...

    I have the following compiler error: Namespace or type specified in the Imports 'myNameSpace' doesn't contain any public member or cannot be found..... There would appear to be three possible causes according to Microsoft, but I am pretty sure(ahem!) that at least two of them don't apply to my...

    Referencing the control of a calling DLL (or EXE) from the called DLL

    Implementing the event raising and data passing between an EXE and a DLL Many thanks for all that. I just spent an hour or so learning about Event Handlers and managing data between two forms. Congratulations on a very well written set of tutorials! Now I have to figure out what to do in my...

    Referencing the control of a calling DLL (or EXE) from the called DLL

    I have figured out how to reference a "child" DLL from a "parent" DLL (or Exe), but I haven't figured out to reference in the reverse direction, for instance to reference a parent DLL/EXE control from a child DLL. Not sure if I have the exact terminology right here but hopefully you get the...

    Compiling a single Module or Class into a DLL

    While I am waiting for a reply to my previous post I thought I'd write another... Does anyone know of a good reference to explain how to convert a single Module or procedure which is currently embedded within an application and convert it to a DLL programmatically. Through Visual Studio this...

    Expanding the implementation of an application with DLLs

    I have written a fairly large application that includes a module with one self-contained procedure that ultimately is initiated by a control on a userform. During development it was convenient to have this procedure embedded as part of the application but for the full roll-out version will need...

    Waiting for Excel

    I want to open an Excel workbook with a call from VB and have a procedure that works fine except that on rare occasions I get a system exception thrown, because I suspect that procedure is not giving enough time for Excel to open. On the assumption this is correct I wanted to make use of a...
