• ledwinka VSTO Outlook 2007 Architecture Problems - Please Help!

  I am developing my first VSTO Outlook 2007 add-in and I have hit some problems. I would be very grateful if somebody could provide me with some helpful answers as I've been wrestling with this for ages. The ultimate goal of my add-in is to extend the Outlook 2007 UI by presenting my customers with a range of additional forms that meet their particular business needs. These forms will use a local database to store their information. So far I am concentrating on just one form called "Clients", and I have taken the following steps: 1. I have opened a Contacts form and created a Clients form region from it, implementing the 'replaceAll' formRegionType. 2. I have created an additional MAPIFolder called "Clients" wit ...Show All

• RohitAtKA <MSHelp:Attr> for Filter

  I've generated my help files but get an error when I try to filter my integrated help files in VS. I placed an attribute directly below the locale example in utilities_metadata.xsl like this <MSHelp:Attr Name="FriendlyName" Value="MyAssemblyName.Help" /> where MyAssemblyName.Help is the namespace of the help collection I'm creating. then when I use the help integration wizard I create a filter to search for Name="FriendlyName" All I would like to do is select my help in the VS "Filtered By" drop down list so that only my help is visible in the tree view. I'm obviously doing somthing wrong but I can't seem to work out the correct combination of the Name, Value pair and how to filt ...Show All

• markse DDD / TDD

  Hi, I'm working on a project where we start by using TDD to develop our domain classes and then map it to the database afterwards. Currently we're using NHibernate but looking to the future I'm wondering if Linq is an option. I was thus wondering how Linq is going to support developers who start with the domain instead of the database I haven't looked in massive amounts of detail but is there a companion to SqlMetal that goes the other way and generates the mapping files or the database (from the mapping files) Thanks, Colin DataContext.CreateDatabase() might be of interest to you. Hi, Someone actually pointed me at what I was looking for elsewhere, ADO.NET Entity Framework. ...Show All

• Michael Herman - Parallelspace We're are in a world of hurt with J#

  Hi; We are suddenly getting a number of problems on various systems here with the J# compiler. The result is we cannot release new versions and some developers can't do anything.

• Gus B Creating popup panels like Blend

  What would be the best way to go about creating 'popup panels' like Blend does when you click on one of the tools on the left side In Blends case it looks like it's a Menu but I'd like to be able to have any Control magically appear, allow the user to interact with it, and then disappear. For example, I have a color rectangle in my app. If the user clicks on it, i'd like a color selector control to magically appear. The user can then interact with the control and then click anywhere outside of the control to close it. Is something like this built into WPF I've tried just manually creating a control but I'm having trouble with getting the popup to automatically close when the user clicks anywere else.

• K.V.Bharath The data source object is invalid

  Hi, I'm getting this exception when trying to use .SetDataSource() on the report. How can I track this down Thanks, Mike Edit: The only reference I saw to this is when using 95/98/ME platforms and a Classic ADO RecordSet. This is not the case, as I'm using XP Pro sp2 and a business object. Well, this is pretty interesting. It looks like there are four .SetDataSource methods - you can either pass it a DataSet, DataTable, IDataReader or IEnumerable. My object I'm attempting to pass doesn't derive from any of these types, and yet it still compiles. The following code produces "false" for all four Debug statements, and throws the data source object is invalid on the last line. ...Show All

• J. Nail Guidance for IErrorHandler

  Hi, I'm looking for some guidance on how I should use the IErrorHandler. I have it configured, and running, but I'm really not sure how to go about getting it to the "right" things. Additionaly, I'm supposed to make it interact with the exception policies (ExceptionPolicy) of EntLib. Thanks Thanks Justice, I was able to get the specific FaultException<T> returned to the client To do so, I had to check the type of the exception (MissingMemberException) passed to IErrorHandler.ProvideFault, then create the correct FaultException<MissingMemberFault>(new MissingMemberFault(exception.Message) To avoid the repetitive code for each type, I've used a dictionary to m ...Show All

• vidhyaprakash A blank grey window that won't disappear

  Hi, I've recently uninstalled vs 2005 beta 2 and installed vs 2005 rtm (team version). I've also installed sql server 2005 and the tfs client (refresh 3). Every time I open the VS IDE a floating grey window appears. Even when I close the window and reopen the IDE the window shows up again. The window also shows up every time I end a debug session (either by clicking on the stop button or ending the debug normally). No matter what I do - it won't disappear. The window is not a toolbar since I cannot drag it to the toolbar area, I can however make it dockable, but it just appears dockable every time I open the IDE again. I currenltly don't have a screen capture, I'll try attaching one when I return to my office ...Show All
