Good morning; I have this VB windows app that has suddenly lost the My object. That is to say, when I am running the program both in the IDE and as a current executable, My.User.Name equals "" or null. This error appeared suddenly when prior, the application worked fine.
One of the things I am seeing - in the app.config file_ is in the ConfigSections/SectionGroup name/section name is the 'RequirePermission="false" is tagged as a "warning". The warning message says that "The requirePermission attribute is not declared". I am importing the system.configuration object into the application. I also attempted to get the value of system.configuration.sectioninformation.requirepermission by using the examples in the help file Dim x as sectionInformation Dim value as Boolean Value = x.RequirePermission but when I run this in the IDE, I get the error "Type System.Configuration.SectionInformation' has no constructors" for the value of x Here is what I have done so far. 1. I have reinstalled VS2005 and .NET V2.0. 2. Older executables of this program run ok as executables. 3. I have rolled back the program in VSS to an earlier version - still have the same problem. Any thoughts anyone?
