Other options for deploying standalone apps developed in VB 2005?

I've managed to deploy an application using CR 10 as shipped with VS 2005 Professional Edition.
I embedded the reports in the app and created an *.msi file, which my users used to install the SW on their machines.
Problem is, I have some users who do not have enough privileges on their machine to install my SW.
I'd like to be able to make the SW available to them (one possibility is having them launch the SW from their machine but have the SW installed elsewhere).  Or, distribute them an executable but not an installer (running the SW isn't an issue; installing it is).
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

You only have two options
1) the MSI as you are using it now
2) clickonce deployment.
Details on ClickOnce deployment as described in the developer help file:
ClickOnce deployment reduces the time and effort required to deploy Windows Applications across a network. Rather than distribute a separate executable to each individual hard drive, ClickOnce deployment places the executable on a common Web page, from which all users can launch it. As part of the launch process, a copy is retrieved to the user's hard drive that can be used to re-launch the application locally. However, this local copy regularly checks the source executable on the Web page for updates.
Updates to the Windows Application can be re-published to the web server, and the newer application files are then available to clients. If an older version of the Windows Application opens locally on a client machine, an update dialog box gives the option to check for updates from the web server. ClickOnce deployment is only available for Windows applications that use the .Net 2.0 Framework or later.

    Hello kumar kalptaru, 
    Thank you for participating in the Apple Support Communities. 
    It sounds like you're wondering how to hang up a call besides using the Sleep/Wake button. 
    Other than this, you can tap the red hang up button on the Phone app. See the iPhone User Guide for more help:
    While on a call - iPhone
    End a call. Tap  or press the Sleep/Wake button.
    Best Regards,
    Jeremy 

  • HT2534 I have just created an Apple Id for itunes, it is allowing me to get to the debit card stage but they no longer accept Visa Debit, there is no other option for me as i dont have any other cards and there isnt a 'none' option! HELP!!

    I have just created an Apple Id for itunes, it is allowing me to get to the debit card stage but they no longer accept Visa Debit, there is no other option for me as i dont have any other cards and there isnt a 'none' option! HELP!!

    How did you create the account ? Unless you followed the instructions on the page that you post from exactly then you won't get the 'none' option and you will need to enter payment details - those instructions won't work on existing accounts.
    I tried those instructions a week ago in response to another thread and I got the 'none' option on it e.g. on my computer's iTunes I logged out of my existing account, found a free app in the store, clicked on its 'free' price, clicked on 'create Apple id' on the popup, and after agreeing to the terms and filling in my details I was able to select 'none' as my payment option and download a free app with it.

  • Are there other options for renting and downloading movies?

    I have watched movies downloaded from Apple a couple of time, but I really don't like the iTunes interface - my main complaint is that there is no way to filter movies so that I can quickly scan for rentals. 
    I rarely watch any movie more than one time, so I have no interest in buying a movie - I only want to rent, and it is a huge waste of time to hunt through iTunes movies one by one to see if I can rent it or not.  It just not worth my time.
    I don't know if Apple plans to fix this shortcoming or not, but until then, are there other options for downloading rental movies to watch on my MacBook Pro or my iPad?  Online streaming is fine, and I use Netflix and others for that, but I would like to get movies to watch on airplanes and other places where I don't have an internet connection.
    Thanks

    Try NFS. SMB is for connecting to Windows servers.

  • Other option for SubQuery...

    Hi All
    I want to Use other option for Subquery for Performance Tunning. Any Other way for this?
    Thanx in Advance

    < i don't want to Join >
    You don't want to use subqueries, and you don't want to join. That limits your options as inline views and subquery factoring are both variants on subqueries.
    You can go farther afield and look at the set operators which can sometimes simulate joins and subqueries but don't usually help performance, or write inline/pipelined functions as alternate ways to get the data but these are all but guranteed to decrease performance and involve a lot of extra work besides.

  • Other options for emailed itunes gift card?

    I received an itunes gift card via email.  Unlike a physical gift card, it does not have a redemption code.  Just a 'redeem' button.
    I don't want to redeem this code.  I would like to gift it to someone else or perhaps sell it.  But I need a physical card with a redemption code.
    Apple says my only choice is to redeem it to my itunes account.  I didn't want to ask the purchaser to request a refund. 
    Are there any other options for this gift card email?  thanks!

    thank you for your reply. i know you could stream in between computers. i guess i just want one device to do everything and i am torn as to whether or not to buy the basestation. i guess the odds of a newer one coming out with the music feauture in the next few months is probably way beyond slim to none!

  • Local Database Options for Windows Store Apps

    I am looking to create an application that will allow for entry of data from a user and write it to a database file system locally within the application.
    I am new to Windows Store type app development and are a senior developer for ERP systems for the enterprise which have rich databases and client apps that are built with a MVC type configuration. The app communicates with the database which is on the DB
    server (Oracle, IBM DB2, or SQL Server) and writes to the file system.
    For my startup applications I would like to have a simple CRUD type interface that writes to a DB that is part of the application and does not require a connection to a file server or DB server.  Internally I would like something with a few tables,
    etc.. that I can write to and then report from locally.
    In the Windows 8x development world, what is the best method and technology to use for Store Apps for this scenario?  What is the best approach? 
    Mike

    There is SQLite for Windows RT and Windows Phone.
    Search "SQLite" in vs extensions and updates

  • Which is a better carrer option,DBA or oracle apps developer,please help?

    I am a trainee and have been offered a choice between the oracle DBA and the oracle apps finance developer.
    What is the future of a DBA guy ,can he get into the management side in an IT industry or just stick to the tech side all through the life?
    Is getting into a managerial side more easier in the DBA or the apps developer side?
    Please help ,I am in a real confusion and have to quickly make a decision.

    Mahen,
    Before giving an opinion, the most relevant part would be to know that you want to do what, be a manager or be a techie or both? AFIK, in the dba track as well, after few years, a person can become a manager , project/team lead. It all depends on this fact tht you want to be a manager or not. I have got couple of friends, some are managers but some chose to stick with technology only despite that they were offered to become a manager as they didn't like the idea of analyzing the appraisal reports than Statspack reports.
    Getting into the manager side would only come(or should come) with a proven record. I am not from Apps background, never did that but I feel that's a more functional side that you have mentioned. If you are a finance guy, having a strong base in finance, you should go for it. I don't think that if you are not having a base in this stream, you should be opting for it. You are still a trainee as per your saying, think about being good in either side of the technology than being the manager. You can always be once you have spend some time with either of the tracks.

  • Where is the doc for xml task options for deploy and ojdeploy-build ?

    I am a new user.
    I tried using jdev help to find my answer, but got lost quickly in the zillions of manuals.
    1) Where is the manual/doc for the xml task attributes/options for the Ant tags <deploy> and <ojdeploy-build>?
    I am modifying an xml script that ojdeploy will call, but do not know what attributes/options are supported for these tags. I need to know whether an option such as failonerror exists, so that I can report a bug that <deploy> does not default to fail on error (or that <ojdeploy-build> ignores the error and continues with the script.
    Followup questions:
    2) How do I find the java code that implements the tags <deploy> and <ojdeploy-build>?
    3) How do I report a bug on the implementation for these tags and propose a fix (assuming I can see the java source code)?

    I guess I wasn't clear enough. What I tried to say was:
    1) Where is the manual/doc for the xml task attributes/options [I meant to say attributes/elements] for the Ant tags [I meant to say tasks] <deploy> and <ojdeploy-build>?
    I did not mean the ojdeploy command, but the Ant tasks <ojdeploy-build> and <deploy>.
    The jdev help does not seem to provide the complete list of elements or attributes for these critical Ant tasks, though it has a few examples.
    So far, it appears that <deploy> has been misdesigned and I cannot do what I want, which is to "failonerror" (failonerror="true" should be the default but the opposite is true and there is no attribute to change the setting).
    You could consider this to be a bad flaw in Ant itself, that you cannot get the exit code from every Ant task (since they are java programs they do have an exit code), so when new tasks are implemented by folks who lack experience they may leave out access to this programming feature that is however implemented for a bunch of important core Ant tasks such as "java" or "exec". It would have been far more useful to make this a generic feature of all Ant tasks. Of course then folks would be asking for stuff like "fail if" or "fail unless" and where would it end? Maybe with a real programming language like TCL but in XML form.

  • Communities for game or app development as3?

    I am working on 2 projects at www.wudiware.com. Emma (an "easy" to use rapid data collection and processing app), and Space Out (a space shooter game with minion ships and systems/galaxies that expand as you explore). Are there any popular communities that handle both game and more serious-oriented app development? Is there some forum here at adobe? I've been working on them for a while, at least space out, but don't know what to do about getting feedback/users to try them. They use php and mysql to act like a server, and are written purely in as3. Space out has had more functional versions that were based on a development kit, which I am trying to move away from now. I'm not a business, just one person trying new things, new to me at least.
    I'm much more interested in working on Emma, as I've never seen anything quite like it (I'm sure some things like it exist though?) And space out would just be yet another space game.
    Any insight into the world of flash development communities would be appreciated, thanks.

    Depending on where you live, a fantastic resource can be your owjn local community/user group. Search online for your area - just about every major metro area likely has 1 or 2 Flash/Flex/AS3 groups that might meet once a month.

  • Is there any other option for using internal table in badi

    hi
    i know we cannot use internal table in badi
    but is der any other option
    plz write in d codez too
    with Regards
    Rohan Shetty
    Edited by: Rohan Shetty on May 6, 2008 2:14 PM

    of course you can use internal table in BAdi, do like this.
    data: itab type table of ....
    data: wa type ...
    Example:
    data: itab type (standard, sorted, hashed) table of mara.
    data: wa type mara.
    Or create your own type within the badi.
    types: begin of ty_xxx,
                fielda  type c,
                fieldb  type n,
                fieldc  type d.
    types: end   of ty_xxx
    data: itab type table of ty_xxx.
    data: wa type ty_xxx.

  • UI Options for Deployment

    We're scaling our deployment from a single 9030 always tied to a developer machine to about a dozen, hopefully without requiring a dev machine for each instance.  I'm now trying to figure out what my options are for the user interface - we've been doing this by just hitting run from within LabVIEW, but now we're deploying.
    Can you please help me better understand my options?
    1) Install LV on laptops, continue to "just hit run".  I'd like to button it up a bit further, but this is an option.
    2) Connect a monitor / keyboard / mouse directly to the cRIO-9030s.
    3) Create a separate LabVIEW executable that I write that connects to the cRIO via e.g. shared network variables.
    Are there additional options?  Is there an easy way to project the existing front panel UI to a web interface?  to a windows executable?
    Thanks
     - Eric
