• Visual Studio Tools for Office VSTO Outlook Add-In not loading outside of VS2005

  I created a Add-In project using the Add-In for Outlook 2003 project template. I started with some simple code to test functionality and then continued to create the add-in I wanted. During development I always tested using the debug in VS2005. I never had a problem with it appearing this way. However, now that I am trying to deploy the Add-In, I am unable to get the Setup project to work. Even on my own machine, once the setup project is installed, the add-in does not load. I created a simple MessageBox.Show("hello") add-in to see if I had introduced the issue. However, this add-in behaved the same. I could always run it in VS2005; however, when installed from the setup project, the add-in would never load. Another str ...Show All

• Windows Forms Links in a FormsApp and controlling the browser

  Opening links is easy, like this private void button1_Click( object sender, EventArgs e) { System.Diagnostics. Process .Start( http://www.google.com ); } private void button2_Click( object sender, EventArgs e) { System.Diagnostics. Process .Start( http://www.yahoo.com ); } But is there a way to control if the link is opened in a new browser window or an existing one Well, I'm not sure. but at least you can have a try HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\HTTP\shell\open\command\ddeexec\Application indicates the default browser and, HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\HTTP\shell\open\command indicates the command line passed to the browser ...Show All

Having table with cca 40 columns of nchar data type, querring it with sentences like: WHERE '*3*' LIKE '*3*;*4*;*5*' OR '*5*' LIKE '*3*;*4*;*5*' etc. or have table with cca 200 boolean columns and querries like: WHERE field13 =TRUE OR field 15=TRUE etc. Does anybody know what is faster, how sql server works on one hand LIKE is heavy operation on system resources, on the other hand isn't 200 columns too much tanx for suggestions Best regards, Grega The correct way to do something like this is not having columns that represent multiple values, so I would def ...Show All

• Visual Studio exporting error in IE

  Here's the line of code I'm using to export crystal reports to the users browser as an attached .doc file: rd.ExportToHttpResponse(ExportFormatType.WordForWindows, Response, true, "WordReport"); When I load the report and click the export button in IE the browser shows a download box but then gives the following popup error box: 'Internet Explorer cannot download filename.aspx from www.website.net' Internet Explorer was not able to open this internet site. What is weird is this used to work a few months back (nothing has changed since then codewise or with server permissions AFAIK) which makes me think this was caused by a windows update of some sort. Exporting still works fine in Firefox as well. For now I changed the code to ...Show All

• SQL Server Inserting Arabic characters into a column

  Hi, I am trying to insert some arabic characters into one of the tables but after I insert it, it get stored as . What should I do I have SQL Sever Managment Studio Express running on Windows XP. I appreciate any suggestions!! Thanks Two possible reasons I can think of: 1. the column is not defined as unicode data type (need to use nvarchar instead of varchar for example) 2. the string was not led by the special char N (e.g. need to use N'chars' instead of just 'chars') ...Show All

• SQL Server Dependant assemblies in CLR

  This is related to one of my previous posts. I am running a CLR stored proc that goes to an EDS (Novell) server with LDAP and returns records into a SQL table. I am using the Novell ldap library. I want to do this with SSL so my code referneces the Mono security library as well. However when I make the call to the stored proc to run in SSL, I get an object not found error. I do not think that the the Novell assembly can "find" the Mono assembly. Two points: 1/ I can do the SSL if I run it as an asp.net page (so I know the SSL works) 2/ The proc runs and pulls all the records in non-SSL (so I know the proc works) Any ideas Thanks, BIG Believe it or not, I got the source code for that .dll and did ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Appaling GUI performance on Vista RC2

  Hey guys, I don't know if this already been reported, but I've discovered that the GUI performance drops drastically on Vista RC2 when setting the AllowsTransparency="true" on a Window. On Win XP with September CTP bits it runs fine. It is a pretty clean test from a hardware point of view since I have a dual boot laptop.

• SQL Server Debugging Woes

  The following issue is happening a lot these days. For all the world it looks like a bug in BIDS: I set a breakpoint in a Script Task (not a Script Component!) and the code dutifully stops on the breakpoint over and over again, as expected. (Please don't tell me about not being able to debug Script Components!) At some point, when I run the package and hit the Script Task, the VSA editor opens as if it's going to take me to the breakpoint, but then it displays an error dialog box containing the following message: Microsoft Visual Studio has lost its link to . You work will be exported to C:\Documents and Settings\mgroh\My Documents when you quit the application (Notice the space between "its link to" and the period in ...Show All

• Visual Studio Internal sealed woes

  I am not very fond of how the HTML output of the toolbar is. I cannot override most the styles, since some are written in Render(). I used reflection to set UseV1StyleSheet to true. Still there are inline styles. Another problem is that I want to use the LocalReport in my own control with the existing handler (Reserved.ReportViewerWebControl.axd). All of the utility classes etc are internal sealed. Therefore I cannot use the LocalReport for anything useful unless I duplicate exsisting code, thus increasing complexity and potentially go out of sync with future releases. How is LocalReport cached / stored Session I cannot use the LocalReportControlSource or LocalModeSession since they are (also) internal sealed. What is the reason for this T ...Show All
