• Jahid Find Location UK Postcode Error

  Hi, I have been using the map.FindLocation function for quite a while now, just giving it a UK postcode everytime it always gave the correct results. Now it doesnt work at all and cannot find postcodes Is there any reason for this and will it be working again soon Thanks, James Could you  please post a sample search and what results were given back   Also I've noticed that VE has problems searching for European postal codes, and it seems to be a bug in the searching algorithm.  It's probably the same problem your experiencing.  See this post for more details: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=1237431&SiteID=1 Hope that helps.

• Chimme Pocket pc application using Access 2003

  Hi there, this is my first ever post on a forum so please be nice if i get stuff wrong. I am wanting to develop an application for a Windows Mobile 5.0 device using visual studio 2005 but i want to store data on the device using pocket access. Can anyone tell me if this is possible or whether i am 'forced' to use SQLserver The reason i use the word "forced" is that all our software is written in vb6 and stores data using MS Access. The application i am wanting to develop needs to ultimately merge the data with the existing ms access databases. (There are only a limited number of people access these databases so i dont feel any need to upgrade to SQL just yet - If it aint broke dont fix it!!!!) I've found thread ...Show All

• Halil_developer Max zoom out or zoom in parameters?

  Is there a way to set the max zoom-put or zoom in MAP parameters Is there a way to know if the user clicked ZOOM IN as opposed to ZOOM OUT Yeah, the zoom control works but only after it's zoomed past a max or min, then zooms back in or out. Not perfect. If we knew if the user wants to zoom in OR out we could catch it onstartzoom instead of onendzoom. Thoughts If you stored the current zoom as a global varible outside the function then you could compare the new current zoom to work it out. But I don't think this would make you code any better. Remember there is about 6 ways to zoom in/out: mouse wheel keyboard ...Show All

• Evgeny Popov [Activity] How to make so that an IM is not display in WLM window?

  Hello, with this function (thanks to J-Thread ;) ): function Channel_OnIMReceived() { // Instant message was received; inspect the value of Channel.IM // If application has ReplaceIM permission, Channel.IM can be written to before it is displayed. alert(window.external.Channel.IM); } i "catch" an incoming text message.

• AtomZ .be Problem with updating a recurring all-day appointment

  Hi folks, I'm trying to modify an previously created appointment. This appointment is an all-day event and recurs by some simple rule. Updating the basic attributes ( like start time, end time, subject, location, and so on ) works perfectly. However this is not true for changing the recurrence rule ( which by the way works if the all-day-event flag is not set ). It is not even necessary to change any data. Right away when I call IRecurrencePattern::GetRecurrencePattern() and releasing this interface again, it is not possible any more to call IAppointment::Save(). It gets even stranger: This scenario works perfectly on a PPC 2003 device. It does NOT work on a new Windows Mobile 5 PPC. I've tried to change the order of the update calls, like ...Show All

• agdurga Missing System.Data in CF 1.0 install on PPC 2002.

  I've developed an application for CF 1.0 and am having difficulty running it on one of the two devices I have for testing. All is well on my PPC 2003 device, but I'm receiving an error on the PPC 2002 device. The error indicates I need a newer version of the framework and is unable to load a type from System.Data. Both machines have clean installs of the CF 1.0 SP3 redistributable. However, on the PPC 2002 device, the GAC_System.Data_v1_0_5000...DLL file is missing in the Windows directory. Instead, there's a system.data file installed into Program Files\.Net Compact Framework. That directory is empty on the PPC 2003 device. If I copy the System.Data file from the 2003 device into the 2002 device in the same directory, it doesn't wor ...Show All

• Ingenious Two Newbie Questions

  Hi, I am a VE newbie looking at the Map Control + ASP.Net Atlas for a site I'm working on and would like to confirm two things: 1) I am looking to display a map, allow the user to select an area (by clicking on consecutive spots to define the area's polygon), and then get the lat/lon for the area they chose. Is it possible to do this in VE 2) The app I'm developing is commercial (only subscribers may access it) and this would be a small utility function in it.

• Simon Goldshmid new to VS2005 problem

  I'm completely new to Visual Studio 2005 and that is most likely the source of my problem. I'm setting up a simple app (that will run on the Pocket PC emulator). I've done several things with buttons, check boxes, edit boxes, etc. The issue comes when I try to do them in a new (different) window. To create the window I said new dialog, it created one, I gave it a better name then added a command button. When I went to add code it said make this form a class first (so I did) I went ahead and put some simple code under the command button (MessageBox) I run the program, the first pages comes up (works fine) I click the button and the 2nd window comes up. On this new window nothing works. I can click all day the only thi ...Show All
