Hello,
The .NET Framework is about 20MB which is large compared to some apps.
Can I assume that the Framework is on modern PCs? Does modern mean PCs
sold in the last 6 months, 12 months, etc??
Cheers

Geoff,
You can almost never assume that because you don't know if it is the correct
one for your application.
(Or you should build your application for Net 1.0 because the others are
compatible with that).
See this link http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/do...r/default.aspx
I hope this helps,
Cor

Cor,
Thanks for the info and the link.
Am I correct in thinking that if I wish to develop a really simple app
VB6 or VB 5 would be sufficient? In both cases a Win32 .exe would be
created and could be installed under Windows98, 2000 and XP without
the need for any runtime software to be added?
This app would display a picture and ask the user to indicate a
reaction between 2 extremes, say very Good and Very bad, by
positioning a slider/trackbar. A button would be clicked to move to
the next question/slider choice and after the last question the slider
values would be saved to a file.
Any thoughts?!
Cheers

Geoff,
AFAIK you can not run VB4, 5, without any runtime it is or apart or
implemented.
However you can of course try unmanaged VS 2003 C++.

Cor,
Not sure what "unmanaged" means?
Can you create unmanaged C# code with C# Visual 2005 Express Beta 2?

No only with C++

Cor,
Can you explain this for me? If I install an application (one which I
have downloaded from the Iinternet say) on Windows 98(SE) or XP there
is no mention of .NET or any other runtime software so I am assuming
that it is possible to write code which needs nothing that which
Windows 98 provides. If so, how would this code be written? Could it
be VB5 or VB6?
I have yet to install any software whihc required the .NET Framework -
as far as I know. Could it be that I have but was not aware of doing
so?
I suppose I could use C or C++ without the need for an IDE - except
that this would be difficult for someone only just getting interested
in writing software for Windows!
Cheers

Geoff,
If you see the size of a normal install package of a small VBNet program and
from a VB4 program than you see where the difference is. With VB4 and VB5
you are (if you create a deploy package) installing everytime the runtimer.
For an VBNet program you have in fact only to xcopy the exe, which can be
for simple Hello World window application in VBNet 10Kb. You will not see
that with VB4 or VB5.
I hope this gives an idea.

But Cor, surely most PCs do not have the .NET Framework software on
them? So the user must also install about 20MB of .NET Framework and
wouldn't that normally come with the package to be installed?
Am I missing something?!

Yes the word "Once" that is one of the advantages from Net. All Net
programlanguage s use the same runtime what is a part of the Framework.
When you now sent an update of your program by instance with VB4 or VB5 you
are sending all kind of runtimers or whatever or let the user install that.
(Or you should create special update procedures for your client assuming he
has the correct runtime already)
As well you have no conflicts because a collegue of you have placed another
runtime in another directory than you asume, or a systemadmin has deleted
all runtimes because there where such a terrible amount of them on the
system, while one central placed is enough in his opinion.

VB.net does not seem to have adequate structure for handling time

Subtract 15 minutes from 00:00 AM, and an out of range condition results.

Seems one half of the process is missing, and it is the half that requires
the most thought. Without it, we are left to hand code the whole process.

I then installed .NET Framework 2.0 from MS Updates.
In the management console, I've added in a .NET Configuration 1.1 snapin.
But, I don't see the .NET 2.0 Framework Configuration snapin (in the list of
available snapins).
How can I resolve this?

in case anyone hasn't seen it yet:
Microsoft are going to make the source code for the .NET framework

viewing and debugging into.
I won't go into all the details here, as they're covered on Scott
