March 19, 201313 yr Author Hi, Today I got a little Update for you guys. A few days ago I started to lern C# and began to rewrite my "MD-11 Fuel Planner" on C#. The switch from C++ to C# brings some little new features, like an updated design and the compability to FS9 (loading weights, etc.), to you and many more features to me. :wink: You can download the actual version from here. If you allready have the last version of my fuel planner installed please make sure to remove (or put it into an other folder than the new version) it and the "save.txt". Reason: The new programm will creat it's own "save.txt" file, however the new one isn't compatible with the old one and if the new software loads the old one it might result in a crash/unexpected behaviour. Feedback is appricated. Have fun! Best regards, Jonathan John Rubens
March 19, 201313 yr Sorry error message when run "..... not a valid Win32 Application" I use WinXp Sp3 with .net V4/ V3.5/ V3/ V2 installed Any idea what the problem might be? Gerard Marley
March 19, 201313 yr Thanks for this Jonathan. Unfortunately mine isn't opening either (Win 7). No windows or error messages - just nothing seems to happen. If you could have a gander at this, I'd appreciate it. Glenn
March 19, 201313 yr Thanks for this Jonathan. Unfortunately mine isn't opening either (Win 7). No windows or error messages - just nothing seems to happen. If you could have a gander at this, I'd appreciate it. Glenn Ditto here, same OS, same no error flags. Just tried to run it. Going nowhere. Rick Almeida
March 19, 201313 yr Author Thank you guys for your feedback. I am very sorry for the problem you guys have. I am just not used to Visual Studio yet, I got probably something wrong creating the built. I will try to fix it and I will keep you updated. John Rubens
March 20, 201313 yr Author Hello, I tried to fix the problem. I don't know if works, so please can you give it a try? Download from here. Best regards, Jonathan EDIT: Still not working. Looks like it will get an installer instead of copy & paste installation. John Rubens
March 20, 201313 yr No worries Jonathan :smile: . Appreciate you looking into it. Take your time. Glenn
March 20, 201313 yr Still nothing here. I am using WIN 8 64bit and have used several of the compatibility modes. Nick Hatchel "Sometimes, flying feels too godlike to be attained by man.

March 20, 201313 yr Author Thank's for your feedback guys. It is really anoying. The first versions of this programm where crated with Boarnd C++ Builder 6. Altough it is quit old, it was easy to use and did a good job. With the future in mind and some talks with colleagues I came to the conclusion that I will have a hard time with C++ as most of the local industrie uses C#. So I looked for a good C# Compiler and found Visual Studio Express. Got some good feedback and worked well on my machine. After some long evenings and some bottles of coke later I was finished with this little programm here. However, there comes the problem. How to export it? In Borland you had to tick one or two checkboxes and it was good to be used. No installation, no worries, just worked. With Visual Studio however you can't just copy the .exe file. Neither can you use the built in installer. It is just complicated and at the momment I don't have a clue what to do. I am sorry but that problem will take it's time. I don't want to give up yet, but I am reather annoyed and close to giving up. Sorry, Jonathan John Rubens
March 20, 201313 yr Don't tell me, let me guess - Visual Studio is a Microsoft Product, right? Fastest way to get fired from MS if you're a software engineer is to make something that's so easy to use, nobody has to buy the add-on books published by MS that actually gives you enough info to use the program :angry: . I feel for you. Don't let it turn into a job. If you get it, great. If it's going to drive you to the insane asylum, drop it and send MS a "Thank You" note from all of us :mad: . And oh, "Should you or any of your IM Force be captured or killed, the Secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions. Good luck Mr. Phelps."
March 20, 201313 yr Hi Jonathan, I agree its really frustrating to have these types of problem. I use Visual Studio 2010, though primarily with VB and don't have a problem just copying and running the .exe file - providing it has been compiled to use one of the .net versions installed on my PC. Might be worth checking the compile settings and the target framework. I think the express editions have fewer deployment options than the full blown product, but I dont think you can be far off getting it to work, so its worth perservering Tks Gerard Marley
March 21, 201313 yr Hi Jonathan Despite updating .Net to 4.0, still crashes on trying to run it----'stopped working error flag' Rick Almeida
