Hi to you all.
As a beginning programmer, I finally succeeded in finishing my first
application. I made the application with VB expr 2005 and provided the
application with a help project, which I made with HTML Help Workshop.
It works fine on my laptop, where I made the app., even after publishing
(ClickOnce) and installing from CD.
But when I want the application to run on my other computer, the application
runs well, but my helpproject is not accessable!
It seems that I'm not able to publish the help files and get them installed
with the application!
Although I can see all the help files in the solution explorer (in the
folder Help) of vb 2005.
How can I publish my application so that help files are included and
installed on any PC I would like to install it on?
I already tried to copy them to the resources folder, but made no
difference.
Thanks for any help?

Alain,
I have not used the specific approach you used but I hope you can use this.
From the file system on target machine in the set-up project I added the
common files folder.
Then I made a subdirectory from that with "somename".
Then I added the html file(s) to the that directory.
In my application, the help sub points to that file in program files\common
files\somename\ XXX.html.
Build the msi and when it runs it'll put make the folders and put the
appropriate file in it.

Hi All,
The company I work for has traditionally used COM/ActiveX for the
solutions that it provides. We are in the process of moving to .NET and
a few applications have been written in VB.NET up to this point.
Some of the applications are class libraries which need to be callable
via the COM interface from some of the older applications. Could
someone please explain to me the issues involved in deploying such a
class library?

I'm planning to deploy several ASP.NET projects to a production server.
Normally I used the "Project / Copy project" option in VS.NET, but to this

FTP tool, but it seems that every application needs to have an own virtual
directory, is this true? Or is it possible to just make 1 virtual directory
and put al the projects...

Hi,
I have created an ASP.NET application (let's call it FooBar) with VS.NET on
my local machine, residing in http://localhost/FooBar. Deploying it to
another folder on my machine works well with FrontPage Server Extensions,
but I don't manage to deploy the application to my web provider http root
folder.
When I run Copy Project, I get an error message just saying 'Unable to
create Web project 'myname'. Not found.'.

I am trying to deploy a .NET 2.0 Application to the network. However, I have
run into the Runtime Security Policy problem.
The whole point of deploying to the network instead of to each user's
machine was to decrease the amount of work involved in the initial deployment
and any future deployments.
I want to make the deployment process as easy as possible without leaving
gaping security holes.

Is there any way to save a VB 2005 created application as an .MSI install

want to push out an application with Group Policy.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
