• SQL Server Foramtting chart axis colour using expression

  I have a chart on a report that shows value in ￡ on the Y Axis. The values can be both positive and negative. I would like to have the negative labels to show in red and the positive in black. What is the expression syntax to achieve this i know it will be an IIF statement, but what is the syntax to show the Y Axis label as <0 eg if i was doing this for a field it would be iif(Field!Fieldname.value <0, "RED","BLACK") but what would i replace the FIELD!Fieldname.vaue with so the expression would change the Y Axis label.

• Visual Basic DeviceIOControl and SCSI_PASS_THROUGH_DIRECT

  Hi, I'm trying to get data from a SCSI Inquiry command in VB. I'm using DeviceIOControl with SCSI_PASS_THROUGH_DIRECT - the call goes through OK and DeviceIOControl returns 0, but I can't seem to get the expected data back - retBytes just contains 7 bytes of seemingly (but probably not) random data: (40, 4, 20, 0 , 40, 4, 20). Changing scsi.dataIn to 0 gets me 255 bytes of data, but not the data I should be getting. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here's what I'm doing. offset as Byte is ignored for now, and fileHandle is a valid handle to \\.\F:. Private Function getVPDPage(ByVal offset As Byte, ByVal fileHandle As Long) As Byte() Dim status As Long Dim dIn As IntPtr = Marshal.AllocHGlobal(255) Dim dOut As IntPtr = Ma ...Show All

• Visual Studio Rendering problem with split in a core editor

  Hello, I am working in a new language extension for VS. Following some examples I wrote an implementation of IVsEditorFactory to create a core editor and register a Language Service with it. The editor is working fine when the view it is not splitted. But, when I split it (Window->Split) the split bar is positioned at the middle but the top editor is not shown and I cannot use it. Also, when I use the option Window->New Window a new editor view is created, the coloring is applied but the font is not setted correctly (Arial is used instead of Courier New) and the scroll bars are not painted (there is a “hole” where they should be located). What could be wrong Greetings, Nicolas ...Show All

• Windows Forms datagridview and xml

  Hi, I have an xml file which contains the history of send sms messages. I loaded the xml file into a datagridview. The problem is, i don't know how i can load the data back into their controls.

Node 1 = date and time in ticks. Node 2 = phone number. Node 3 = message.
