Visual Basic 2005 Jumpstart

http://books-download.com/?Book=1487...2005+Jumpstart

Okay, all you VB6 developers--time's up. As of March 2005, Microsoft no
longer supports this version of Visual Basic. And you can't blame them.
Three years ago, they introduced the .NET Framework--an elegant,
powerful platform--along with the new component-based VB.NET language.
But roughly five million of you decided to stick with VB6, mostly to
maintain legacy Windows and COM projects. Now, with the upcoming
release of VB 2005, Microsoft has several attractive reasons to upgrade
that you'll find hard to resist, including the return of some VB6
features. And we have the perfect book to help you make the conversion:
Visual Basic 2005 Jumpstart. Now, you can test-drive the beta version
of VB 2005 with three hands-on projects that enable you to learn the
syntax of this new language quickly. VB 2005 not only lets you convert
the bulk of your existing VB6 code, but offers several familiar
features, such as compile-and-run debugging, new MyClasses that
simplify use of .NET libraries and frameworks, lots of IDE support for
Windows, web and mobile GUI development, and data access controls that
closely resemble what you use now. The real plus is that you'll be
using these features with the .NET platform, which is more secure, less
complex than COM, and offers OneClick deployment. Visual Basic 2005
Jumpstart lets you get the feel of this platform for building
smart/rich Windows Forms clients, ASP.NET web applications, and web
services. Author Wei-Meng Lee, a Microsoft .NET MVP, veteran O'Reilly
author and frequent contributor to the O'Reilly Network, has put
together three useful test-drive projects, complete with code samples,
that let you develop: A personal library Windows application A
Web-based shopping cart application A stock enquiry Web Service Our
jumpstart guide is the quick, painless way to migrate from VB6 to VB
2005, and the perfect training manual for moving your organization to
the more robust, dynamic and secure world of .NET.

Hi, I have been searching for a possible list that shows what methods or properties in the System Names replace the ones in the Visual Basic Namespace so I can stop using the Visual Basic Namespace on new projects. Thus far I have been unable to find this information, please inform me. For example in the Visual Basic Namespace there are Control Characters like Tab and Back and so on. Where are the equivalents in the System Namespace?

Why do we have to contact MS for a problem that has been with this compiler from at least the beta of VS 20005. I am so sick and tired of the 30 - 40 clicks it takes to dismiss VS when there is a problem. Can they not just post the fix. I see no reason to contact MS since I have most likely sent about 1500 dumps to them and I would think this would get their attention.

Hi. When I try to run Visual Studio 2003 I get the message "MS development environment is not installed for the current user. Please run setup to install the application." Is there any way to work around this without reinstalling VS 2003? Also, can VS 2003 and VS 2005 coexist?

I have a 2 form project in VS2005 that now hangs whenever I try to do anything with the second form. This seems to have started when I added some SQL tables from a Pervasive v.9 database using the Pervasive ODBC driver.

I have seen the terms Visual Basic 2005 and VB.NET. It seems that sometimes they seem to be referring to the same thing but sometimes they are not. I also run into terms like VB9 and VB10.

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
