Update: We took that same code (clean non-VSS) and put it on a machine without VS2005 and ran it and it ran. Then we added the code to VSS and ran it and it ran.
Summary: VS2005 is the problem. I'm un-installing VS2005 and may never touch it again as long as I live. I just hope I don't have to re-format my machine because nothing else seems to work right in VS2005, why would the un-install work right.

After I create a new baseline and add it to source safe, my connections to oracle fails even though the code and of course the connection string is exactly the same as the original code that runs fine. I've tried all kinds of things to create a new baseline and get this to work but below is the steps of the most clean way I could think of to do it and it still fails. 1) Create folder structure. 2) Create new project with same name as existing good code project in new folders. 3) Add references needed for the code to new project. 4) Add VB files from existing good code project. 5) Add new project for next in line of projects for solution and then repeat steps 3 and 4. 6) repeat step 5 until all projects have been added so we have a total new solution file with new project files but old code. 7) compile 8) run (runs fine) 9) right click on solution file and add to source safe from IDE. 10) Run (fails...fails to connect. Says it can't find the service). Now, if we create a brand new test project with all new code, it will run both before and after it's added to source safe. Now how is that for a doosie? History of two machines that this is working happening on. Both machines have recently had VS2005 installed. Both have exact same third party controls and versions including the same oracle data provider of 9.2.0.700 (C:\oracle\ora92\bin\Oracle.DataAccess.dll). Any ideas other then un-installing VS2005 and if that doesn't work then reformat harddrive? =================================== This list is hosted by DevelopMentor® http://www.develop.com View archives and manage your subscription(s) at http://discuss.develop.com =================================== This list is hosted by DevelopMentor® http://www.develop.com View archives and manage your subscription(s) at http://discuss.develop.com
