• Visual C# IDE changes the .csproj file <SubType> between UserControl and Component

  When any file in my project is changed, I have one UserControl that the IDE changes the .csproj file <SubType> between UserControl and Component. This happens even if the UserControl is not changed. Is there any way to stop the IDE from changing this Hello all, I think another user has hit on the "answer" to this issue here: http://www.pcreview.co.uk/forums/showpost.php p=3645831&postcount=5 The IDE seems to get confused if there is more than one class defined in the user control source code file. Moving your extra classes (besides the one inheriting from UserControl) to separate files seems to "solve" the issue. I was having this problem, and a quick test s ...Show All

  Top Most property of the form keeps the form on top of everything that's running. I want to keep a form on top but only within my application. Is there any easy way to that I know if a form got the focus from form_actiavted event. How can i know if my applciation got the focus.

• SQL Server MDX - exclude certain members in a calculated measure in SSAS 2000-2005

  We had to implement measure which shows values accumulated until the current day in month. All days in the current month are totalized except special days like sundays or holidays. These have a flag ("IsWorkday") in the underlying database, which indicates this. The values to accumulate are saved on the first day of each month and data is only saved on the first day of each month. (forecast stuff) In SSAS 2000 we solved this in the following way: We implemented a calculated measure in the cube, which grabs the values from the start day of the month (OpeningPeriod). Then we used an IIF Function and a MemberProperty called "IsWorkday" to exclude the special days from the calculation by setting the calculated measure to ...Show All

• Smart Device Development CreateFile on PDA filesystem?

  How can I find the string to call to get a device handle on a PDA either from a PC or from inside the PDA itself In general use in .Net on a PC you can call CreateFile to get a device handle on a HardDisk by feeding it something like " \\.\PHYSICALDRIVE2 ". However, this does not seem to be the case on a PDA. I am trying to either A. gain access to the PDA as a USB device when the PDA is in the cradle, or B. get access to the device with a .Net compact application. Either way will do, but I am stumped as to how to find or lookup the string to access a create a handle. Thanks in advance Jeff Well the what i tried was "DSK#" 0-9 and "DSK#:" 0-9, ive tried grabbing a handle on ...Show All

• Visual C# closing an application from a command line

  Hi guys, I was wondering if there is a way to close a csharp application from outside the application so that it will still raise the form.onclosing() events. Basically, I don't want any signs of this application to appear on my desktop, so I cannot close the program from the taskbar. I also cannot close the program from the windows task manager, because this will not raise the form.onclosing() events. I'm wondering if there might be a way to do it otherwise, like from the command prompt or run bar. If anyone has any good solutions or alternate suggestions, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Well, I know the answer isn't no, because I've been thinking about it and you could do this by having the application make systematic che ...Show All

• SharePoint Products and Technologies How do you prevent users from creating personal sites?

  I have created 7 sites, one for each department and I will be setting up permissions for certain staff to manage them. What I would like to prevent is everyone clicking up in the right-hand corner on 'MySite' and creating their own personal site. Is there a way to either keep this from happening or hiding the tabs from view Another way to achieve this is to disable Self-Site Creation on your web application. But this won't hide the link, so I think you should follow Bob's advice to complement this solution. ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Vista Suggestion Add/Remove Programs

  Hi, I'd like to suggest an improvement for the add/remove programs app. I have several programs installed and would like to see createable tabs. I'd like to create a tab in add/remove programs called Graphic Programs and filter CS2, etc to that tab. Create a tab called New Software and put stuff under that tab that I've recently installed and am deciding whether or not to keep. This would make it much easier to find programs quicker if you wanted to remove them or simply to see if something is already installed. I couldn't find anywhere else to post this suggestion or to submit via e-mail. Sorry if this is the wrong place. Thanks, Brian Thanks for the feedback. I/We appreciate it however it is best to perhaps show your op ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Internet Explorer

  How would i create a program that checks the URL, of all internet explorer windows when they are about to navigate (not the webbrowser control on a form), to see if they are in a database. When the URL matches a record in the database it makes it go to a different URL. A content filter basically. I don't think this is possible, but could be wrong. you would pretty much have to get a handle for each IE instance, (going Win32/PInvoke) - this can also be a security risk on its own, as such actions could mean that malicious things can happen such as not letting the user type in certain things in the url address bar of a website they wish to visit or redirect them to some other material. Just my 2 cents.   you can do ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL Server Management Studio remote server agent status

  I have seen posts related to this, but no solution for my situation. On a new Windows Server 2003 system running SQL2005 SP1 (9.0.2153), remote DBAs do not have a service status indicator in the object explorer in ssms. If the DBA logs on to the server locally using the same domain ID the appropriate green arrow/play sign indicator is displayed as expected. The DBAs are members of a domain group that is a member of Remote Desktop Users and a local SQL DBAs group. The SQL DBAs group has been added as a SQL login and assigned the sysadmin role. All sql administration functions appear to work otherwise. Using subinacl to grant the SQL DBAs group access to query service state on the MSSQLSERVER and SQLSERVERAGENT services did result i ...Show All
