Hi

I have developed a small application using VB.net 1.xxxx. It works fine on
the same PC.
For testing, when it is ported to another PC with VB.net Express edition
installation, it does not work.
What could be the problem ? And how to fix it ?

TIA

  I assume you used the .Net code-upgrade wizard (which isn't perfect -
without a doubt).... it should have a report of what it did and didn't do,
including any errors it uncovered. I believe this will be a file listed in
the Solution Explorer after the upgrade process. You could check this report
for clues, and also the Error List window.

After finding an error, generally it will be a difference between .net 1.1
and 2.0, which means you will need a basic understanding of the changes
between the versions to change the code to the equivilent in 2.0.

Hope this helps!

Hello Max Peterson" max_peterson,

The new machine needs the 1.0 or 1.1 framework installed.  All Express versions
use the 2.0 framework.

Oh yes.... if you want to run it as-is, then you need to install .Net 1.X.
Since VB.Net Express is .Net 2.0, you cannot code/run under this tool
without using the "upgrade" wizard to migrate your code (hopefully fully
automatically) to .Net 2.0.

So run the upgrade wizard to migrate your code.... or install .Net 1.X (and
if you want to develop further - you will also need to install your Visual
Studio 2002 or 2003 software)

If you were using Visual Studio 2002 ... then you need .Net 1.0.
If you were using Visual Studio 2003 ... then you need .Net 1.1
.... if you upgrade your code to Visual studio 2005, then you need .Net 2.0.

Hope this clarifies, and thanks GhostInAK!
