• Tara H Exposed types defined in Referenced class library are not CLS-compliant

  Hi, Hope this is the right forum for this. This problem has occurred for me using Visual Basic under VS2005. I'm trying to split a large project into several smaller class libraries containing classes that need to be used in other projects. I've taken two of my classes and put them in a Class Library project, then excluded their files from the original project, built the Class Library dll and then added a reference to the dll in the orignal project. After adding "Imports" lines to all of the affected classes, the project works fine again, but in all cases where the now-external Types are used (method arguments, object properties, etc.), I'm getting warnings that the objects are no longer CLS-compliant. Presumably t ...Show All

• Paul-I Custom Event [ASP.NET VB.NET 1.1]

  I'm trying to write a custom event but am having some difficulty doing so. My problem is that I have the event declared and raised but I am having problems figuring out how to write the event handler. For some reason I can't do "Private Sub SomeName Handles EventName" in the Visual Studio IDE.

• tviel String problem

  Here's a newbie question: I'm trying to concatenate several strings into one long insert statement string. That works fine until the string reaches 250 characters. After that only one character is added and that is not the next character I want to add. I didn't think the string datatype in Visual Basic was restricted to 250 characters. My code goes something like this: sqlstmt = "INSERT INTO " & TableName() & ".KLV32001 VALUES (" sqlstmt = sqlstmt & ToDBText(C_BRUKER_ID) & ", " sqlstmt = sqlstmt & CLng(cIUS.Til_avtale) & ", " sqlstmt = sqlstmt & ToDBText(aDate) & ", " sqlstmt = sqlstmt & ToDBText(atime) & ", " sqlst ...Show All

• tviel User Control problem

  I have a UserControl which basically shows in a textbox the content of a row in a table relationally linked to another table in a database and also a combobox containing the contents of that second table. This mean that as you travel through the main table you can see what the linked text entries are and have a combobox when entering a new record. I started the table in VB.NET 2002 and upgraded it to VB2005 Express and have been using it successfully for some months.So, it has saved considerable code and added to my VB skills. However, having recently discovered the MaxDropDown size property for the combobox I wanted to add a line to the UserControl to fix the MaxDropDown size to be the size of the records in the table it accesses.

• DaveRogers Timer Events Not Firing in Windows Service

  Hi All: I am trying to upgrade my vb.net 2003 windows service project to vb.net 2005. The 2003 project runs great and the timer events fire; however, the 2005 timer events in 2005 will not. Same code - just compiled with different versions of vb.net Any ideas Doug. That did the trick - thanks! Doug. Could be a bug on the upgrade tool - I'd check if the timer is still enabled after the upgrade. Windows services probably don't have a message pump, which I think the timer under system.windows.forms depends on. Hi Alex: That was the first thing I checked ;-) Doug.

  Im sorry if this has been posted before, but im desperate for an answer. The problem I have is that I want to print the whole contents of an mdi children form, but im just getting the visible part. What I need is a method to print even the part that you need to scroll down to see. As it is now, im using this subroutine to generate a bitmap of the form.

• tamorgen Simple problem with Combobox in Datagridview

  Hello, I have a datagridview set to a datasource that fires up just fine. When I go to change one of the columns to a combobox type, all I get are exceptions. I have the DataPropertyName set to the correct field and would like the user to be able able to select from a simple list 1-30 - which I then put in the Items (collection) area. I have left the DataSource/DisplayMember/ValueMember all blank since I am providing the dropdown data. What am I doing wrong Does the following comment have something to do with it What does the following mean The drop-down list values (or the values indicated by the ValueMember property) must include the actual cell values or the DataGridView control will throw an exception.

• patternagnstusr SMTP / Message ID

  Is there a way to retain the generated message id from the built in System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient Right.. but if you monitor the process using ethereal, you will see the SMTP server respond with the message-id.. does .Net do anything with this response or store it anywhere I don't think so since the message-id will be generated and assigned by the SMTP server (not the client). So the Message-ID header value is empty until after the message is submitted for processing. I don't think the SMTPClient provides any access to this response. I guess you could use a TCPClient and submit the message yourself... would probably take a little work to work out the trasmission details but that would let you capture any response from t ...Show All
