• Alan S geting numeric data in and out of text boxes

  Hello, Summary: How do I set up text boxes so that when I enter numeric text in one box (named X_Test_Input) , it will raise events that the other box (named X_Accel_Raw_Value) will collect/consume and display the data in that second box.

• B.Young controlling volume level through code

  Can anyone suggest a way to programmatically increase/decrease your computers volume level thanks for any help :) thanks much ahmedilyas I never knew controlling the volume would turn out to be such a tall task, but with the code you shared, I was able to implement the functionality I was looking for - thanks again :) hehe - no worries, glad I could help buddy! such things are not built into the .NET Framework - its out of scope for it and its more of a Windows thing therefore you need to P/Invoke (Platform invoke) meaning to use Windows dll's etc... and use the API's to do the task. there isnt a way of doing this in .NET so P/Invoke would be the opti ...Show All

• RameezM Improving ProvideCorrectArgumentsToFormattingMethods ;-)

  Good morning. I've just written my own rule to analyze my use of some internal Tracing APIs. I used Lutz Roeder's reflector to examine the canned FxCop ProvideCorrectArgumentsToFormattingMethods rule and indeed my own rule is almost identical to ProvideCorrectArgumentsToFormattingMethods. (Shame I couldn't inherit from it :-() As a nice side effect, I've improved the regex that ProvideCorrectArgumentsToFormattingMethods uses to match argument groupings in the format string: static ProvideCorrectArgumentsToFormattingMethods() { // This regex matches format arguments of the form {0:x}. // The first group, "(^|(\{\{)+|[^\{]+)" defines what is allowed to precede the format argument: // * The start of the ...Show All

• windflower Team Foundation Server vs SubVersion

  Hi, Did any one has done comprehensive report comparing Team Foundation Server vs SubVersion vs VSS The comparison will be toward business decision. - Cost analysis. How much saving if using TFS compare to others - Efficiency & Productivity - Quality Assurance. - etc Thanks, John I have personal experience with the both the Teamprise Eclipse plugin and the standalone client. I have to say that they are nowhere near the level of Visual Studio's Team Explorer in terms of functionality. IMHO any Java developer wishing to use TFS (or being forced to use TFS) should suck it up and write C# or J# code instead. It's that painful... > Sourceforge is using ...Show All

  Please forgive me as I am really new to programming and also I apologise if I am posting in the incorrect forum. I am writing a program where the user inputs some variables.

  Maby this is a stupid question but I'm trying to create a template excel sheet to track work items in our projects. To do this I need to bind the work item list to different projects on the server.

• PareshGheewala Why enumeration?

  Hey guys, thanks in advanced. I am reading through a beginners C# book and it cover enumeration, but yeah in great detail as far as why to use it. Can someone explain why you would need or want to use enumeration over another option. And what are other options if there are Thanks a ton. Hello All. bk13: Nope, if you want the integer portion of an enumeration, then you must explicitly cast to int. Always. That's why, if all you want is a named integer constant for collection indexing, then enumerations are not as good as actual named integer constants. However, there are three main strengths of enumerations. First, all of their members are members of the same strong type, so you could declare a ...Show All
