• SQL Server General Network Error Randomly But Consistantly

  We have a .net 1.1 application that gets this both with MSDE and SSE but more with SSE. It randomly crashes with this error on laptops where they have SSE or MSDE installed on the local computer. They're being referenced by the machineName\Instance because (Local)\Instance had bugs in the past with network connections disappearing and us getting this error. Now we're getting this, especially with Intel Wireless Cards on a random but consistant basis. Under SSE we've had to turn on tcp/ip to make our app run, which tells me that something is preventing it from using shared memory access, which I suspect is that we're not using (Local)\Instance, so I tried switching it, and no dice, same problem. Is anyone else getting this It's driving us ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Building a PDA application, which to choose visual: c# or c++

  Hello everyone, I am interested in building a series of applications for a Windows Mobile 2003 SE device. What would be the best language to do it under Visual C++ or C# The application I plan to write essentially sends a command and receives data from a serial device. I've already written this program in the LabVIEW programming language, but it is too slow. (i.e. to complete one loop in the code takes ~2-3 minutes). Any advice would be greatly appreciated. -George well it wouldnt make much of a difference whether you used C# or embedded VC++.NET as they would still be using the framework, C# being a friendlier easy to understand language than embedded VC++.NET as for books - not really sure, there hav ...Show All

• Windows Forms application not starting

  I have a clickonce application, when one particular user click on the install button, the pre-requisites gets installed but it will not launch the application. When the user click the 'launch' button then also nothing happens. I checked the registry entries and file association for .application and he does have those entries. Could someone give me an idea what could be causing the .application not to run at all Nothing happens when running .application. But no other clients have problem. Anyone run into this problem at all Thanks. I started the task manager and saw nothing happening so I looks like something is blocking .application to be launched from internet.

• Visual C++ CListCtrl - ReportView - Selecting a row

  I have a CListCtrl and I want a particular row selected, this this example row 4. int row = 3; SetItemState(row, LVIS_SELECTED, LVIS_SELECTED); This does select the row and treats it as selected, BUT it does not look selected (it is not highlighted in the view). How do I highlight a particular row so that it looks selected Viorel - Thank you very much, it would have taken me forever to figure that out on my own. I was just not connecting those two pieces. I am satisfied with those results. Just out of curiousity if you know, a regular selected line appears with a black background and white text, where this shows a grey background with black text.

• Community Chat Here is my first application

  About a month and a half ago, I discovered Visual Basic 2005 Express and now, here is my first application. My first software "baby" is a simple Stopwatch accessory. It features a stopwatch that counts up to tenths of a second, and a countdown timer. Documentation is included in HTML and plain text formats. Installer and uninstaller are provided. Main UI screenshot Coundown dialog screenshot Source English and Spanish executables with installer/uninstaller and documentation.     Hey, looks cool from the screenshot.

• Visual Studio HTTP access to VSS 2005 through ISA Server

  Hi all, in our company we successfully created and configured VSS 2005 access over HTTP (not HTTPS, only HTTP on standard port 80) and configured a source repository share on a different machine as documented in http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms230206.aspx. All works well and we are able to connect to the Web Server and connect to the VSS repository. This applies when in the company building or in VPN to the internal network. To allow remote access to the repository without the need of a VPN, we tried to expose the Web Server over our public ISA Server machine, through a routing rule that manage to route incoming connection on a specified port to the Web Server machine. My question is: is this configuration supported by VSS Actu ...Show All

• Visual Basic Changing the connection string programmatically

  Hi, Using .net 2005 is it possible to change the connection string programatically within my application eg if user = xxx then connection string = x else connection string = y endif there is, you can create your own method to do so. For example, you can have a method which will build the connection string based on the username, password, datasource you give it. Example: private function DoBuildConnectionString(byval username as String, byval password as String, byval dataSource as String, byval catalog as string) as String Dim theConnectionStringBuilder as new System.Text.StringBuilder() theConnectionStringBuilder.Append("data source=") theConnectionStrin ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) A New Windows Application, WPF or Forms?

  Hi I plan on starting a new Windows Desktop project soon and I will surely want some places to be WPF, but the majority of the forms will be Windows Forms 2.0. Is there any advantage / disadvantage for me using a WPF application type (template) instead of a Windows Forms Application template from VS 2005, or because the majority of the application will be windows forms am I better off using the current Windows Forms template for the project Cheers   miloush wrote: If you start the project in Windows Forms template, I cannot imagine how should you manage to compile the WPF stuff. Maybe it's also simple, but this is my point of view, hope it helps a little bit. ...Show All

• .NET Development Run my program on startup - without logging in - is it possible?

  Basically I want my program to be run on startup. The program uses a GUI form. Is there a way that can be accomplished without anybody logging in I'm not really used to windows account and privilege system (linux guy), so any comments are appreciated. If there's no way to do the GUI thing, can I make a service that logs someone in and launches the program Any pointers or suggestions are appreciated. If nothing works I can always have someone log in whenever the computer starts and just put those programs into the startup folder, but I'd rather have it automated. So if you want something to pop up on the screen before someone logs into the computer, this requires a custom gina and is extremely complicated ...Show All
