Welcome to the Visual Basic IDE forum!
Hi all, and welcome to theVisual Basic IDE forum.
I'm Paul Yuknewicz - I'm one of the Program Managers on the Visual Basic product team, and starting today, I'll be moderating these forums. For more info about me, check outmy blog. Note there is aVB Team blogas well.
In this forum we will cover questions and discussions regarding the all things in the Visual Basic IDE (integrated development environment). This covers Intellisense, debugging, ErrorCorrect, ClickOnce deployment, code snippets, colorization, smart tags, key bindings, Object Browser, Refactor! for Visual Basic 2005?, etc.
The team and I look forward to joining you in discussions about VB.
Best,
Paul

Hi Paul,
I am using visual basic.net 2003.
How can i make the IDE work faster. It's driving me nuts.
Thanks.
Hi-
Performance problems can be caused by a number of factors. Would you mind taking a moment to outline some details about your project and where exactly you experience slowless? I suggest posting this in a new forums post. My team will keep an eye for this and respond.
Best,
Paul
My problem in short is like this.
When I want to add codes behind a control. I dbl-click it it takes a long while before the text editor comes on line. Meanwhile, I can see that VB is busy saving stuff (hard disk light blinking).
When I move back to design view after putting in my codes, again it takes a long while before the design view becomes editable.
If I use tab strips the problems sometimes gets worst. My tabs becomes re-arranged (i.e. not in the order I had intended it to be).
Did I do something wrong in my installation?
Help appreciated as I am losing "train of thought" because of this.
Thanks.
OK, Spotty I will give it a try. Thanks.
Hi again Spotty: Itried what you said. I read the entire chapter, which shows only several lines of code. And a lot of reading. That is not what I need. What I need is to see the entire VB 2005 program for the Northwind database, to learn how they do things.
However, I thank you for trying.
Luis
Steve thanks, it worked very well.
Two more questions:
Is Crystal Reports included in VB 2005 Express?
Luis
Hi Luis,
No, Crystal Reports isn't included - for that you would need the full edition. Does that answer both of your questions :-)
Steve Hoag
Thanks again. Yes you answered the question, I know there is a 30 day trial but it may not be enough.

Hi All,
I'm facing problem as below:
Dim d As Double
d = 127.4
d = d / 18.2
MsgBox (d = 7#)
It's should return as true like what's we get from calculator, but it's not!
Workaround that I have encountered and seen so far are as below
- Declare d as Single instead Double
Dim d As Single
d = 127.4
d = d / 18.2
MsgBox (d = 7#)
- Convert the results to string and convert it back to double
Dim d As Double
d = 127.4
d = CDbl(CStr(d / 18.2))
d = d / 18.2
MsgBox (d = 7#)
Both message box will now return True.
Does anybody has a better solution or provide the logical explanation behind this results?

When will the VB Team simply make vs 2005 VB.NET actually work ( read usable on anything other than example projects), and preferably not crash each and every day, and behave as a compiler, i.e detect syntax and compile errors!!
It would also be nice if it could actually compile lage programs without locking up and needing a re-boot.
All I see is look what we will do next, what we are looking for is "we will actaully produce a commercial product"..
See numerious threads on google about why VB.NET is luck to be a "beta" product..
And before I get the flame, yes I know I shoudl have stuck with VB6...
