• Internet Explorer Development Calling ActiveX function from Javascript

  Hi, From what I've heard, you're supposed to be able to call an embedded activex function or set one of its properties from the javascript in an html/asp page as long as the function or property is declared as public in the code. I have an activex control embedded in an html page with the object tag: <object ID="gis" classid="clsid:C9905EA4-468A-46c0-BCF4-49A547B3A2E6"> Then I try to call a public function of the control like this: <script> function showbox() { gis.ShowMBox(); } <script> All the function does is show a messagebox.

• Windows Forms PrintDocument Spooling problem

  Hi, We have a sony photo printer which doesn't like more then one image spooled before the last one has finish printing. I notice when I develope my test application for printing. When i go printdocument.print() it sends all images to the printer in one go. Our printer has very low memory I think it rejects excess images if it cant hold it, hence the extra images dont get printed. However if I use Photo Printing Wizard in XP, it prints it out fine. Monitoring the print queue i notice the wizard send one image at a time, wait for the printing to start then send the next image. Is there anyway I can do this in VB.NET 2005 Works fine in print preview and other printer i am trying it on. Just does ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro How to remove redundant phrase in field?

  Hi all........ I have a table field that contains things such as..... V DISCONTINUED W/O REPLACEMENT; V DISCONTINUED W/O REPLACEMENT -I&S MASTER; 7 SUB 2610-139-3704; I&S MASTER; 7 SUB FOR 2610-139-3704 What I need to do is remove the duplicate phrases, leaving only one instance of each phrase in the field. The amount of phrases in the field varies...could be 2 as shown above or there could be 6. I suspect that the 'common denominator' is the semi-colon, but everything I've tried has failed. Any help is greatly appreciated! assuming that data is "V DISCONTINUED W/O REPLACEMENT; V DISCONTINUED W/O REPLACEMENT; I&S MASTER; 7 SUB 2610-139-3704; I&S MASTER; 7 SUB FOR ...Show All

• Visual Studio Multiple viewpoints/ zoom in, zoom out

  Hello, I have a question regarding the management and handling of views for a given model. Is there a mechanism to collapse or expand information For example I can image a detailed block diagram that shows all implementation details but would like at one point in time "zoom out" a given part of the diagram and have a different less detailed but more global view of that part (probably by hiding some elements) a design level approach would for example assume multiple transformations like having one global model and then a second level detailed model. but then again the question is how to manage the relationship between the two because in essence the more detailed model is self-sufficient thank you philippe ...Show All

• SQL Server Show all days

  I am pretty much brand new to reporting services so I apologize for any simple questions I may ask. I have created a call report that shows data broken down by day and grouped by week. Everything works great. However, if there is no data on a certain day is does not show me that day on the report. Is there a way I can make it display the day even if there is not data for that day and just give me 0 values Or do I need to modify my query Thanks in advance. The query should return the complete set that you would like to see. You can perform this with a date table or numbers table and a left outer join. cheers, Andrew ...Show All

• Visual Studio MPF and .user Project Files

  Hello, I was wonder if I'd missed any implementation in the MPF for supporting user-specific project configuration settings (using .user files) I assume not, so I'll continue with what I need to solve. MsBuild takes care of the loading of a user configuration file through a conditional import. I need to set properties, that may or may not exists, to the import project, in this case the user configuration file. I see that Project defines a method SetImportedProperty but that requires a Project instance. I also see that Project defines a property Imports where I can find and locate my imported project but that givens me an Import instance and not a Project needed to set a property in the imported section. Does anyone know how to retrieve an ...Show All
