• Windows Forms Need global reference to main form

  (I originally posted this in the Visual C++ Express forums but I realise that I would probably get a better response here) Ok, so I've got a form with a bunch of ComboBoxes that are created at runtime instead of at design time. I want to give each of those ComboBoxes the same ContextMenu, which is a member of my MainForm: public ref class MainForm : public System::Windows::Forms::Form { // ... private: ContextMenuStrip^ myComboBoxContextMenu; // ... } I figured I should create a sub-class of ComboBox which automatically assigns the context menu in the constructor: ref class MyComboBox : public ComboBox { public: MyComboBox() { this->ContextMenu = /* reference to context menu in M ...Show All

• SQL Server Using the results of a script component

  Hi There, I have to populate data from two oracle databases. I have a list of ids from one table and I have to query those ids in the second table (in a different database) and populate that data into a sql server. This is the approach I have taken... I have populated the ids into a recordset destination. I use a script component to extract those ids (from an object) into an ouput buffer. I am wondering how I can iterate throu these ids and query the table in the second database for these ids. Can somebody please help me Thanks a lot!! Table in DB2 has 600k rows in it.

Hi Timothy, No you cannot - SqlPersistance and SqlTracking are specifically implemented to operate with SQL Server.

• Commerce Server Accessing Addresses in Total pipeline

  I'm trying to write a custom pipeline component, I've read all of Max's posts on everything I could possibly want to know about pipelines. I'm starting from the MinMaxShipping SDK example and am running into a problem. Basically what I want to do is assess at the Tax stage whether the billing address is in the same state, and if so apply a standard state tax rate to the entire order. I finally have been able to access an address ID, but the Addresses IDictionary (setup in the OrderPipelineMappings.xml) always has Count of 0. I had considered getting the address and putting it in the context, but the pipeline is being called from the BasketHelper.RunTotalPipeline() method and I am not certain (A) whether this method is doing anything else ...Show All
