• pcompassion Multi threading

  Hi All. I have a question that im hoping to get a little help/advice with. Im writing a forms application (just local - not web or anything) that calls out to a com dll for data processing. The processing may take anywhere from 1 minute to a couple of hours. So of course I would like to be able to display a progress bar - to the user. I tried muti-threading (background worker) the call to the dll - but that doesnt seem to work - either to any dll or at least a com one. So im wondering if anyone can give me some ideas on how to handle this. Can i use multi threading thats a little more sophisticated than the background worker, or can I make the dll - multi threaded (unsure how or even if this is possible). BTW - I am the ...Show All

• biscuithead Master-Detail insert question (Access db)

  Hello, I have implemented a form that usesa master-detail relationship to bind data from 5 tables together. I have created a strongly typed dataset with those tables in it along with the relations from the master table to the child tables. Updates (I don't allow deletions from this form) work fine I am having trouble with the Insert functionality. Basically, I do this upon clicking the new button: Add a new item via the bindingcontext for each table Clear the bound fields on the form I have implemented the RowUpdating stuff to return the autonumber for the primary IDs on all of the tables. I am also using the negative autoincrement method for the ID fields of the tables. Here's my code in the New button Private ...Show All

• Urban Terror target OnBeforeInstall and installing EXE side by side with previous version

  I have a Studio 2005 Windows Installer setup project to install my app. Our customers require 6-10 months to validate each release of software (due to FDA rules) so my installer must preserve the existing EXE while also installing the new EXE. This way they can test the new EXE while still getting work done with the old validated one. When I used InstallShield, I could run a script that executed before any files were installed/upgraded to look for an existing EXE and move it to a safe place so it would not be overwritten. I would also create a shortcut to it in its new location. In Studio setup projects, it seemed like using a custom action DLL was the solution. I wrote handlers for the Install and Uninstall events, and most importantly I ...Show All

• rgalgon MDI or SDI

  I am creating a VB front end for a SQL Server Express database. My application will need to do the following: 1. Populate comboxes on form load from the database whislt displaying a splash screen 2. Navigate through forms on a sequential basis (e.g. Enter some data then move to form 2 and enter more data, miove to form 3 and do some other stuff), but i want to navigate backwards and forwards through the forms. 3.

Some data will be required to be passed between the forms. 6. All the forms will be the same size. My question is what is the best format to use SDI or MDI A MDI app will conta ...Show All
