Problems with Samples

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I am attempting to use the trial version of this product. I downloaded, unzipped and and installed it. I then wanted to check out the ''visual-basic_dll_sample.zip'  Sample. 

When I attempt to open the sample solution 'visual-basic_dll_sample.sln' in MS Visual Studio 2005 I get this message box.

"The selected file is a solution file but was created by a newer version of this application and cannot be opened."

I am running XP Pro and I use VB.NET Primarily

I have attempted to take the code from the examples an put into an existing applcaition, but cannot get the DLL's to load up in in References so I can use them. 

Do I have to be using a newer version of Visual Studio to try these demo's out.  

I need to develop applications that can process PDF's.and I am very intested in this software.

	Hi Mike! Here's the beginning of a form1.vb (VB2008 Express) from one of my samples. Hope it helps. Cheers and welcome here, Ingo Public Class Form1 Friend MyParam1 As String Friend MyParam2 As String Dim MAP As String = My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath Public Declare Function MyFunctionX Lib "MyDLL.dll" (ByVal MyParam1 As String, ByVal MyParam2 As String, ByVal Page As Int32, ByVal Dpi As Int32) As Int32 Public Declare Function MyFunctionY Lib "MyDLL.dll" (ByVal FileName As String) As Int32 Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load Me.Text = "PDF Sample with MyDLL.dll" For Each foundFile As String In My.Computer.FileSystem.GetFiles(MAP & "\archiv", FileIO.SearchOption.SearchTopLevelOnly, "*.pdf") foundFile = My.Computer.FileSystem.GetName(foundFile) ListBox1.Items.Add(foundFile) Next End Sub
