• jiao Keyboard shortcuts in ToolStripMenuItem in Excel Action Pane

  My question is about keyboard shortcuts failing to work as expected in an Action Pane. I have a document level solution for Excel 2003 using VSTO (C#). In my ActionPane, I have a System.Windows.Forms.MenuStrip that contains several ToolStripMenuItems which have keyboard shortcut attributes defined. For example, there is a "File" menuitem that has a child menuitem "Publish" to which I've assigned "Ctrl+Shift+P" as the shortcut. When I run my solution, I observe that Ctrl+Shift+P does not fire the Click handler for the Publish menu item as I expect. If I manually click on the File menu item to drop it down and expose Publish, then press Ctrl+Shift+P, the Click handler is fired. So I know that the shortcut ...Show All

  Hi, I am completely baffled by this. I installed crxir2_net_server_install on a fresh Win2003 box. When I attempt to view a report via a web application I get the following problem: Could not load file or assembly 'CrystalDecisions.Web, Version=11.0.3300.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified. This reference comes from the configuration of the httpHandler assigned to the path "CrystalImageHandler.aspx" in web.config (.Net v2.0.50727). Checking the GAC reveals that this assembly does not exist, hence the error. There is a different version of this assembly however v11.5.3700.0.

• Kevin Dente How to disable Visual Studio Commands?

  I'd like to disable specific Visual Studio commands. More precisely the commands for starting the building or rebuilding a Visual Studio project should be disabled programmatically. How can I do this I tried it using the IMenuCommandService, but there seems no way of determining the CommandID for the build/rebuild commands. That worked great, thank you! See: HOWTO: Canceling a build from a Visual Studio .NET add-in. http://www.mztools.com/resources_vsnet_addins.htm Also, you can locate programatically the several "BuildXXX" commands and for each EnvDTE.Command get the Guid and Id properties.

• Dirk Haest ClipToBounds property on Ellipse, Rectangle and Path

  Hi all I am hoping that someone can help me out. I am wondering if WPF has the capability of successfully applying ClipToBounds (or a property that achieves the same affect) to anything else besides form elements or Panels. This is because I need to apply this same property to objects like Ellipse, Rectangle (when the RadiusX and RadiusY have set values other than 0) and/or any other shape that can be created with Path. Now I know that the three mentioned elements have the ClipToBounds property but none of these elements allow you to add content of type object, thus the property in this context seems a but superfluous. In essence this is what I would like to be able to do: <Rectangle Fill="{x:Nu ...Show All

• bk13 Export Class Diagrams during build

  Is there a way to export class diagrams as part of the build process I don't see a way to generate the class diagrams without using the UI. Thanks. Hi Eric, Unfortunately this is not supported. An API would need to be available since each diagram needs to be loaded into the designer so that it can produce the image file. Your scenario sounds very interesting - are you embedding the diagram image files into specific documentation If so, are you auto-generating the documentation as part of a build Regards, John Stallo John, I can also see some benefits in this, especially if it was available to all DSLs, not just the class designer.

• xRuntime Differences between addin code for Office 2003 and 2007.

  Hi, May I ask is there a different in writing of code between all office 2003 and office 2007 cause I was unable to get the code to word in the addin in office 2007. Example like having 'Globals.ThisDocument' is available in addin for office 2003 word and not in addin for office 2007 word. Thanks. Are you sure you're using VSTO 2005 SE in both cases "Globals.ThisDocument" sounds more like a VSTO 2005 (without the SE) document-level customization... From which folder in the Visual Studio File/New/Project "tree" did you create the project for Office 2003 If it wasn't the Office/Office 2003 Add-ins folder, then it wasn't a VSTO 2005 SE project and therefore not an Add-in (and not analagous to the Office 20 ...Show All
