• Dave2UisDave2Me Resigning XBAP

  Hello, I have created an XBAP that reads a setting from the app.config upon a button click. I have published it to IIS and am able to browse and perform the read fine. I then changed the app.config token value and resigned the manifest and xbap using MageUI and the generated key from the project that was originally used. When I try to bring the app up I get an unknown error stating: "The application must be browser-hosted". There are no further errors in the error log. What is the correct procedure for using MageUI with XBAP The problem has been resolved. For those interested... When using MageUI to resign the app manifest, it was removing the line: <hostInBrowser xmlns=" ...Show All

  My CR always ask password for login to MSSQL when open form all data is come from that SQLServer , How to stop CR ASK user & password when i open form thank you To avoid it asking for a password you need to set it in code as it does not store the password in the report file.

• HariK The expression cannot be evaluated while in design mode

  I have only one window open and it is a vb document. I never use design mode for anything (with exception to SOME windows GUI interfaces... but none in this project). IF I am not in design mode... and ONLY use text editors... how can I get this message: The expression cannot be evaluated while in design mode. Is this a MSFT BUG or is there a way to be in design mode without actually using the designer, attempting to engage it, or actually using anything non-text to write a program I was unaware of any modes... never messed with it (I assume you are not reffering to the design vew/source view). Can you point me to where I might identify if that is the problem / correct it if needed (E.G menu option / toolbar / etc ) I have ...Show All

• --Alan--- Sdc.Tasks SetEnvironmentVariable - Why wont it set environment variables for me?

  I have a small project which I call to set environment variables (for various 3rd party tools in our build process, etc.). I use the Sdc.Tasks.SetEnvironmentVariable which executes fine, and I know it's stepping in there because it throws an error if I call it with a bad property-name etc. Problem is, it doesn't seem to do anything, i.e. when MSBuild returns back to the command line, and I type 'set foo' there is no env-var created. In fact, the only env-var output from this project is 'USERNAME' which obviously already exists. What am I missing... Many thanks, Duncan Smith. <Project DefaultTargets="ValidateConfiguration" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003"> <UsingTask TaskName=" ...Show All

• 535510175 New PLKs for 2003 not working

  I requested a new PLK from the website and have just received it but it doesn't work. I have a managed package. I've modified the resource file to contain the load key, the new version, the company name and the product name. I've modified the RegisterLoadKey with the same information. What have I forgotten Hi James, When you fill out the form to request at PLK, there's an Application Residency field that allows you to select which version of the product the package will be hosted in. Note, the PLK is generated based on the information you register your package with in the registry. The CompanyName, ProductName, ProductVersion, and MinEdition values. If you change one or more of these, you need to r ...Show All

• sudhirvn Changing tab settings in Visual Studio 2005

  Hi, Im a nubie with Visual Studio 2005. I'm trying to write C# code, and I don't like the current tab settings in my source editor. The tab key is set to 4 spaces, and I would rather use 2 spaces.

• TruePsion Navigation Window: Can it be Like a web page?

  Navigation Window: Can it be Like a web page can we use a navigation window or any other window (WPF) to be like a web page which is very long and can be scrolled using the mouse wheel (after it gain focus) One can visualize uncompiled XAML as a web page, although with several limitations. You can have the Page element as root and WPF creates an implicit NavigationWindow, providing support for journalling, back/forward navigation etc. As with conventional HTML, you can hook your XAML with other XAML or HTML content using hyperlinks. Your second point is somewhat interesting. One area of WPF where a lot of work has gone is in improving readility. You see evidence of this in the NYT Times Reader apps ...Show All

• Joel Martinez HelpStudio Lite & Document! X

  Hi everybody ! I've just installed the HelpStudio Lite(inside the VisualStudio SDK), but the link Document! X is disabled on the Project Properites Pages. The tooltip of this link told me the Document!X is not installed on my computer. My question is: Document! X is already included with HelpStudio Lite or I have to buy it separately I downloaded the trial version of the Document!X (from Innovasys) ; the setup installed it as another different application(in a different directory) as if it has nothing to do with HelpStudio Lite.

• Pritam Dahake Addin using WindowConfiguration to restore closed files

  Greetings, I am trying to build my first VS2005 addin (in C++) that will modify the .rc/.rc2 files to increment the version number. (Ed D., thanks for the start on this!). I have this addin hooked to OnBuildBegin() and responding to vsBuildActionBuild and vsBuildActionRebuildAll. When this happens, I recurse through the projects looking for files ending in .rc or .rc2 and edit them. This seems to work OK. Now it gets ugly. To avoid annoying popups about the files having been modified, I close the .rc/.rc2 file, edit it, and then try and restore the screen layout for the user. If I merely use OpenFile(), then I just get the Resource View and none of the windows (like for string tables or dialogs or such like). This clearly will not do... I ...Show All

  I created identical test projects in C# and VB.NET 2005, and it seems that the two compilers treat <see cref=""/> tags differently. Given this <summary> comment text in the source code: An example comment that references the <see cref="ID"/> and <see cref="Name"/> properties and also some base class library stuff like <see cref="Environment"/> and <see cref="DateTime"/>.
