• Deepu.MI What's the difference between a VS .Net Add In and a Shared Add In?

  My question is in the subject.  I'm trying to create an VS add-in, and although it works fine on my machine, it doesn't do anything on my co-worker's.  I created the install and ran it on his machine.  The add-in shows in his Add In Manager, but it doesn't appear to be working.  It has no GUI, it's just supposed to run whenever a build completes.  FYI, I'm using VS .Net (2003).  Thanks! In the meantime, I'll be working on a simple example.  Perhaps it's a rights issue OK, on the question of the difference it's what will host the add-in, correct As far as my problem is concerned, it was a simple matter of making the "events" variable a member variable rather than local, since it was going out ...Show All

• mgmcd34 LocalMode ReportViewer Export to Excel/PDF uses wrong session on server. Any Solutions?

  I've built a very simple webforms local report using the ReportViewerControl application. Not using SSRS. VS2005 (no SP1 installed) It runs fine on my local machine, and it renders, and export to Excel and PDF work. After Deploying it to my web host, the export operations on the report toolbar fail with an Expired Session. Note that the report displays fine. The export seems to fail because the session id string present in the URL during the export process is different than the one the report is rendered in. If I Cut/Paste the right session id into the "bad" URL, the report is exported and can be opened in Excel/Acrobat as I'd expect. So.. Question is, what am I doing wrong (or what's causing) this different session ID to be us ...Show All

• Thad213 ListBox/ItemsControl DataTemplate issue

  I have a ListBox with a DataTemplate as follows: < ListBox x:Name = " procList " ItemsSource = " {Binding} " > < ListBox.ItemTemplate > < DataTemplate > < TextBlock Margin = " 10 " Text = " {Binding Path=Identifier} " /> </ DataTemplate > </ ListBox.ItemTemplate > </ ListBox > This works fine, i.e. the DataTemplate is applied to my items as expected.

For other credential types, U/P you will need to use TransportSecurity. wsHttpBinding supports the more advanced ws-specs, including ws-addessing,ws-security, ws-trust. This allows it to support message and transport layer security. BasicHttpBinding has limited security ...Show All

• comspy Shutdown word application forcefully

  How to shutdown word application forcefully without even saving the document using VSTO This sounds like a strange requirement. But, it is a valid scenario for my application. Thanks, Yuhang. Word process would not shutdown if you have programmatic references to it. So, first, you would need to make sure you do not have any references to any Word objects (except Application object), then you would need to iterate over all open documents and close them, then again release all references to Word OM by calling GC.Collect(); GC.WaitForPendingFinalizers(), then call Application.Quit. Unfortunately this is not definitive answer and it only MIGHT work. Of course, you can always kill the process but ...Show All
