• Visual C# Transaction Problem!!!

  You should create methods in Bank and Account class that will return what you need. You can use either generics and in this case for example you will have method GetAccounts in Bank class with return type List<Account>, or you can build your own collection type of classes for Account and Transaction class. Also you should have a method in Account class like GetTransactions. For transfering money from one account to onother you will have a method in Bank class for example TransferBetweenAccounts(Account fromAccount, Account toAccount, decimal amount) which will do the transfer. This method will be a litle more complex, because you should check that fromAccount has the balance bigger or equal the ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Need Help With Certificates for load testing webservices over SSL

  Hi, I want to do a load test on web services which uses certificates over SSL.

• Windows Forms The Answer - Displaying selected items in an unfocused ListView

  Hello, I have the following problem : I want to display the selected items in a ListView even if the ListView isn't focused. As far as I have noticed, in .NET Framework 1.1 the default behaviour is NOT to display them while the ListView control is not focused. Any workarounds Andrei Alright I got it !! The basic idea is the each ListViewItem should have its  " UseItemStyleForSubItems " property to true. make sure you do that. In case you cannot do it at the beginning, you can do it in the OnSelectionChanged() function that exists in my solution below. Enjoy! Heres the solution:     [Description("ListViewWithSelection")] [ToolboxBitmap( typeof (ListView))] public class ListViewWithSel ...Show All

• Visual C# How to get time from datetimepicker component

  I have been pnace a control DateTimePicker in my Win form. my problem is that I actually get Date info but time is set to 12:00:00 am. so How can i get the right time that is shows in the control. I use: dtp1.Value.ToString("yyyy/MM/dd hh:mm:ss") in order to get a text, any idea will be appreciate, thanks in advance for your help, Edward The default format for a DTP is "Long". That lets you edit the date but not the time. The drop-down calendar was designed to select a date, not a time. Since the time isn't normally editable, it defaults to midnight. To make the time editable, you need to set the Format property to "Custom" and the CustomFormat property to something like &quo ...Show All

• SQL Server Export Functionality with Navigation

  Hi, I have a doubt regarding use of navigation controls in a report and exporting the report. For example using a drilldown functionality in a report. After the report is generated one can export the report in whatever format he wants (PDF,TIFF, XML,...). In this case, with the drill down functionality in the report, the details of the report are visible only when the plus sign is clicked. Suppose now the plus sign is not clicked and one exports the report in a PDF or TIFF format. In the PDF file, the navigation or the drill down functionality is now not useful right There is no way to view the detail fields of the report now, using the PDF file right Thanks in advance, The only format as far ...Show All

• SQL Server Mirroring Verification

  I connected to the mirror server and the database is in restoring mode, which I believe means I can't query it. I found the Database Mirroring Monitor but it shows the same thing that Management Studio shows, which is Synchronized. Do I just have to trust that Synchronized means everything is working I was hoping there was a way to look at the tables and verify that changes were taking place without performing a manual failover Thanks in Advance for your help Casey Smith caseys@nhcolorado.com ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Why are so many important design time classes internal only?

  I'm attempting to create an activity in a similar style to IfElseBranchActivity. This allows you to select the type of condition, and then set the properties on it. It does this by using a custom TypeConverter and overriding GetStandardValues which creates instances of the possible derived types, and then you can bind their properties. Now the first bit I've managed to do fine, but when it comes to binding the properties of the objects created by the TypeConverter, I get the error that only dependency properties can be bound. So I look at how the ConditionTypeConverted manages to create properties so that they get bound, and there are literally thousands of lines of code in internal classes like PropertyDescriptorFilter, and internal cl ...Show All
