InputBox problems after upgradeI have recently upgraded a Visual Basic 2003 win forms application to
2005. After doing so I can no longer get my project to compile. The code is bombing on any line that uses an InputBox. I'm getting a MissingManifestResourceException unhandled Exception. I've read several postings and tried various things, but I can not get anything to work. I've also created a new 2005 project from scratch, added an InputBox in code, and I still receive the same error. Does anyone know how to fix this situation? Your help is greatly appreciated!! There is one simple solution and that's to implement one yourself it is not
too difficult and I can send you some source code hth, Samuel Shulman <jpoque***@mileskimball.com> wrote in message Show quoteHide quote news:1152554104.573485.59950@75g2000cwc.googlegroups.com... >I have recently upgraded a Visual Basic 2003 win forms application to > 2005.

going to try it now and see how it works. Hi,
I just tried using the InputBox function and it works fine. What do you mean by "added an InputBox in code"? Can you post some code from the new project that shows the problem? -- Show quoteHide quoteTerry "jpoque***@mileskimball.com" wrote: > I have recently upgraded a Visual Basic 2003 win forms application to > 2005.

It errors out when it hits the line with the
InputBox Public Sub msMailDate(ByRef Quit As Boolean) '***************************************************************** 'Author XXX 'Date Created 5/23/2005 'Purpose Used to change mail date '***************************************************************** Dim sMailDate As String Dim bIsDate As Boolean = False Do Until bIsDate = True sMailDate = InputBox("Please enter the mail date", "Mail Date", Date.Now) If IsDate(sMailDate) Then dtMailDate = CDate(sMailDate) Me.StatusBarPanel1.Text = "Mail Date " & dtMailDate.Date bIsDate = True ElseIf sMailDate = "" Then Quit = True Exit Sub ElseIf Not (IsDate(sMailDate)) Then bIsDate = False End If Loop End Sub Try changing the "Date.Now" to "Date.Now.ToShortDateString" since the InputBox default is looking for a string not a date.

to execute. My fix was to move my solution to my hard drive instead of running it
off a network drive. I'm going to do a little more research on why this is, but it boils down to security when trying to execute an assembly that is not on your hard drive.
