Visual Basic .Net Programming in Application Engine - vb.net

Is it possible to create web-application using VB.Net in Google Application space or at least importing an application already created by VB.Net to Google Application Engine in order to run it in our Google domain?

I'm afraid not - the App Engine supports Java, Python or Go. Your easiest option for running a VB.Net app on the internet is going to be leasing your own (possibly shared) server.

how can i storage and connect access database/ file using Windows application vb.net

i have Windows application application developed on vb.net & Access, how can i place access database/file on cloud/internet and install application on local computer like PC and laptop then connect to access database/file...
I am entirely new to this stuff so I did some search for tutorials. Everything that I found was very technical (at least on my pov) and are very hard to follow especially for beginners like me.

How can I built a standalone windows desktop application ,where I don't need to install any server additionally on client's machine?

I am developing desktop app using wpf mvvm,however I am confused as to how should I proceed with developing standalone application using sqlite,sql server compact etc
If you need a database (really need a database), I suggest using Entity Framework using the code first approach. This can create a local database for the application w/o the need of a database server.
However, strongly consider if you could just use files in the file system. It is amazing how much you can load into memory and if you want this to run on client machine, you likely don't have so much data that you can't just load the data into memory.
SQL Server Compact requires a separate installation step with administrative credentials.
SQLite is a library that can be compiled directly into the application.
In the case of .NET, it is a part of the System.Data.SQLite package, so it is automatically available when your application is shipped with this package (see SQLite deployment for .net application).

How to move a windows .net runtime frontend application to the cloud (it uses a local sql server backend database)

I had a engineer design our .net application back in 2009, my guess is that it was coded using visual studio, and all I have is the installer application. We have been using it on our 1 or 2 local client machines very well for the past few years, but now I want to move this front end to the cloud. Instead of installing it as an application on our windows 7 machines.
It is a very simple application used in our small warehouse that keeps track of cargo/shipments etc. It uses Sql Server 2008 Express as a backend which is stored locally.
I know how to get the database in the cloud, their are many options for that, using Amazon or Azure, but how do i get the local client application to the cloud?
I dont have access to the visual studio code, i just have the runtime executable file..
I am sure there is no way to do this, and many of SO users will say i need to re-write the front end.
I have tried to contact the developer and they hav since closed down. Is their anyway i can run this in the cloud?
I welcome all options and solutions!
Thanks.
I believe you have two options for hosting this application:
If you are able to configure the database connection string, you could host the database in the cloud, and distribute the application to your end users. However, you've already stated that you know how to move the database, so I assume this isn't an option.
The only alternative is to run the entire application on a cloud server, and send the user interface to a client using terminal services. This makes it appear as if the application is running locally on the user's computer, while it is actually running on the server.
For an off-the-shelf solution to achieve this, you could consider using Microsoft's RemoteApp Azure service. I'm sure there are other similar offerings available.

Convert an ASP.NET application on production in II6, back to Solution

I have to modify an ASP.NET Web Forms application which is currently on production on a Windows Server 2003 in II6.
The problem is that I didn't develop the application and there is not anymore the Visual Studio solution used to develop the application. Moreover the application lies under a website where other applications are running and the connection strings are stored in the global web config file.
I want to modify the application without compromising the version that is actually online.
How can I bring the production version back into a solution file? Many thanks

Debug ASP Pages in HTTPD

We are developing ASP pages for a Windows CE device. We need to debug the ASP pages for reducing the development effort. The ASP pages uses a COM component for getting data from the device. The web server running on the Windows CE device is Httpd.
How can we debug the ASP pages running in Windows CE device?
You've run into one of the many joys of developing using the ASP server that ships with Windows CE. There is usually no way to do live debugging so you're largely relegated to using alert statements or DEBUGMSG from a COM component.
The one exception, and it's not all that easy either, is if you've created your own OS image and you have a BSP with KITL enabled. In that case you can build an OS with the debug version of the web server in it, deploy the OS from Platform Builder, attach with KITL and set break points down in the server code. You can then use those to step into the parsing of your own ASP page. It's a complete headache.
Shameless plug
Attempting to write anything useful with the built-in ASP server is so bad that we actually wrote a complete replacement. Our Padarn Web Server supports a subset of ASP.NET, was designed for CE (though it runs on the desktop as well) and best of all you can use C#/VB.NET and the Visual Studio debugger for your page code behind. The only downside is that it's not free - though if time is of any value, it certainly costs less than trying to use the built-in server.
