App failed to initialize
-
Hi There I am a complete beginner at this so please excuse the dumb question! I have been hammering away at my first ever program in VB .NET and seem to have got it all sorted out. It's a viewer to go on a disc with photographs for delivery to clients. It displays previews, allows saving of single or multiple images and reads and displays metadata. The code is not very tidy or anything, but in visual studio it works fine. Unfortunatly my understanding of the jargon involved in all this is non-existent. Therefore i really do not understand how to go from having something working in Visual Studio to something I can put on a disc with an autorun file and some photo folders and get it to work. I have managed to put the app from the bin folder on a disc with all the other stuff, and it seems to work fine on the machine with Visual Studio on it. It will not, however, work on other machines. On trying to start the app I get a:"Application failed to initialize properly (0x0000135)" message. What does this mean and how can I fix it. I would be most grateful if some magnanimous programmer out there could help me out of my shocking ignorance. Thanks! Dr. Wizard

It would appear that the other machines don't have the .NET Framework installed, or at least the version of the Framework that your app is compiled on. RageInTheMachine9532 "...a pungent, ghastly, stinky piece of cheese!" -- The Roaming Gnome

You'll need to create a release version of the application which saves the CLR(Control Language Runtime) file to disc. This enables other users withour the .NET framework to run the program.I know VB.NET 2003 has a great Wizard for doing this so you might want to check out On-line help as it is a bit long winded to put down here.
