Hi, I don't know what's going on. Trying to install a program on our "terminal services" server and it won't recognize the "Excel9.olb" library file. Any ideas? Thanks, Rougy

Anybody familiar with terminal service issues? We're starting to use it here at the plant, and it's not letting my VB6 programs print Excel spreadsheets like it used to. I'm getting a "DLL not found" error. Thanks.

Hi, Anyone know a way to add items to a menu programmatically? I'm doing pop-up menus for "product" descriptions, and I'm keeping the products and descriptions in an SQL file. What I'd like to do is read the SQL file and load the menu at start-up. Thanks, Rougy

Hi, I can't seem to find how to reference and send a row of data to a form's textboxes in winform mode. With a flexgrid it used to be something like: With form .textbox(1) = .flexgrid.TextMatrix(.flexgrid.Row, 1) .textbox(2) = .flexgrid.TextMatrix(.flexgrid.Row, 2) .textbox(3) =...

Hi, I'm stepping up to VB.net and just read an article about using stored SQL functions. Though I use SQL for my database, I've never had the need to write a stored SQL function before, but this sounds like a good idea. Would anybody have the time to show me a simple function that inserts...

Hi, This used to be very easy in VB6, but it's quite a bit more complicated in VB.net. I used to be able to mark the *.exe as "shared" and then run it from a network drive (say the V:\ drive). Not that easy any more. Any guidance would be very much appreciated. R

Hi, I noticed that the Flexgrid is no longer as prevalent as it was in VB6. Did VB.net come up with a better version? I found the FG control in the "legacy" section of the COM references. Going to try to use it, but would appreciate it if somebody has a better idea. Thanks, Rougy

Hi, I need to left-align the combobox text after the user has made a selection from the drop-down menu. Any ideas? It does it by itself once the box has lost focus, but I'd like it to adjust itself right after the "textchanged" event. Thanks

Hi, I know I can do this with a form, but does anybody know an easy way to use the dialogue box in vb.net? I need to prompt for a password, read SQL to see it the values match, then either allow or deny access to a form. Thanks, R

Hi, I'm using MSChart in VB.net, and when I try to make a form appear over it with a "Please Wait" message, the form appears, but the lable on the form won't show. Also, if I try to use a picturebox instead and set it on top of the chart, then switch the picturebox from invisible to visible...

Hi, I have used Excel in VB6 extensively in the past. Now that we're moving up to VB.net, I've noticed that some of the things regarding Excel aren't the same. I particular I need to write data to the Excel spreadsheet, then print out the chart that's associated with that data. I was hoping...
