vb.net : Converting vb.net book examples
Microsoft Press' Programming Visual Basic.net (Balena) examples for use in VB.net 2005 Express. The VS conversion wizard has not been able to convert any of them. These are just two example sources of many. What should I be doing to convert these samples, or should I reinstall VB.net 2003? Dennis D., http://www.dennisys.com/
I >am< using VB2005 Express:
The wizard opens automatically when attempting to open a project. Here is an error example.: file - ObjectPool.vbproj The element PropertyGroup in namespace http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003 has invalid child element UpgradeBackupLocation. List of possible elements expected: 'Property' Here's the data: <UpgradeBackupLocation>D:\vstudio\Projects-Balena\04 Class fundamentals\ObjectPool\Backup2\</UpgradeBackupLocation> I get a file not found error when putting the schema's address in IE.

Well instead of moving back to VB.Net 2003 you could also upgrade your book to the 2005 version ( balena has a 2005 book as well :-) however if you post the code here someone might be able to see what the problem is i for myself would have been pleased to help you however i have currently not a Development machine ( resigned my job yesterday and will start at my new companny at April 10th ) so sorry can`t help you now although i have the book regards Michel Posseth [MCP] "Dennis D." <noone@nowhere.com> schreef in bericht news:uV4$%23sXTGHA.1204@TK2MSFTNGP12.phx.gbl...

Dear Dennis D,
I have not read those books, and sure I have no chance to try and see the sample code. However, due to the limitation on VB2005 express edition(ie no web project), you may try to use the upgrade wizard from VS2005. -- Hope this help and welcome to reply the testing result.

Hello Michel:
My question is: The VB2005 wizard should properly convert the samples, so what do I need to do to get it to do that? Best of luck with your new employment.

Cor:
Great idea. I will give that a try. Sounds like it might work. I'm guessing it is not working because the schema is expecting a path like c:\program files\Microsoft Visual Studio\ instead of D:\my examples path. Do you know the schema path so that I could take a look? Note the error further down the post. Thanks Cor, Dennis D.

Dennis,
Nothing, it should see that it is a VB 2003, ask you if you want a copy and than convert it. (Not that that is as much as with VB6, better I have from a windowsform application not yet seen what is converted from 2003 to 2005 in the vb files. Probably are it only the system settings and RESX). You can try to open a new project and than copy the xxx.vb files from your 2003 application and see than what it does.
