• Visual C# How to update DataTable when changes on DataGridView were made?

I already made this, but I didn't knew this is made automatically. So update on DataTable is perfromed when the focuse on the updated cell (on DataGridView) is gone Thanx, Ziga ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Is there any way to tell if a sampler has a texture attached in shaders?

  Is there any way to tell if a sampler has a texture attached in shaders The default behavior is getting black when no texture attached but I want it to be some other color. No, there is not such functionality available in shader. If you want to use other color, just attach 1x1 sized texture in your code when no texture is needed. I think such things were actually used for emulating "default" black behaviour in some older HW. ...Show All

• .NET Development Generate Dataset VS.Net 2005

  Hi In VS.Net 2003 I could Create an Xml file. Sketch out some nodes. Right click and create an Xsd The Xsd got added to the project I could open the Xsd and right click and Generate Dataset Then use the Strongly Typed Dataset I am using RC0 VS.Net 2005 It seems this flow is no longer there. I've worked around it. It takes several steps. Is the flow hidden somewhere Thanks You must be using a different version of VS.NET 2005. The One I use in the Team edition for Software architects. The only properties displayed for my dataset (.xsd file) are name and path. A darn shame too, The old Schema designer was a much better (intuitive) way to generate an XSD file.

• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums Object Browser

  I find the object browser very useful for finding out what objects are available to me. However, it would be more useful if I new what the small symbols or icons denote just to the left of each object/class (e.g. an easy one to describe would be a hand holding what looks like a card and another a green object with what looks like motion lines coming off of it). Would anyone who knows what I am referring to be able to list what they mean Cheers! No worries Keithyboy, The grey square with the red, green and yellow blocks on it is a class. (i.e. Application) The green moving thing represents a method of the class (i.e. Application.SetDefaultChart()) The finger pointing represents a property of ...Show All
