• Visual Studio Print Layout vs. Interactive Mode

  Is there a way to have an expression change based on which mode you are in Like have something hilited in interactive mode but look normal in print layout Sorry, this functionality is currently not supported through RDL expressions. I guess the closest you can get is to highlight with a light background color - so that when printed it is a very light shade of gray. -- Robert ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. XNA has it's own GamePad DeadZone?

  I've been looking at the output of the thumbsticks, and it appears a value less than 24% (0.24) is ever returned. I know it's very important to implement deadzone in your programs, but why has it been done for us Someone may want to write a game that needs a smaller deadzone, but as far as I can tell it would be impossible given we don't have full access to the output right the way from 0 to 1. Is this behaviour intentional Many thanks, Adam Miles Has anyone filed this as a bug - if so, how can I find it and vote for it I would be totally stuffed if I could not roll my own... ...Show All

• .NET Development GAC references

  I thought there was a way at runtime or development that a web application could use GAC'ed assemblies without referencing them in the web.config or machine.config I have 3 developers that are adding GAC'ed references to their projects and the 2005 IDE is putting references in their web.configs automatically. I don't remember this happening with 2003. I'm telling them to remove the web.config references, but then their having problems at run time. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Obtaining Host Items from Com Addin

  As I understand from the following post http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=166238&SiteID=1 It is not possible to get host items such as workooks/worksheet from a COM Addin, only the underlying Office Model items from the PIA, as its not possible to get the runtimeCallback. I would really like to be able to, so that I can get a worksheet and insert a user control in the control collection. I would like to be able to do this for any workbook/worksheet and hence there would not be any code behind. Hence the reason for tyring out the Add-in option, but I dont want to display these controls in forms (either modal or not). If this is indeed possible, then any pointers would be gratefully recieved. Im also wo ...Show All

• Architecture "Unique ID" server for multi-server app

  I'm building an ASP.NET app that I hope will scale to need multiple servers. For certain objects, I'd like to provide users with an "External ID". This would be either a user entered or randomly generated string, like "Fred's Data" or "q1g52xTK". This external ID would be associated with a GUID, and would allow the user to get at the object without having to know the GUID (such as at log-in). (They will also be able to select via more complete names, titles and descriptions.) For each new external ID, I'll have to do a lookup against all existing external ID's for that object type, to make sure it's not been used. It's like when you sign up for a Hotmail or Yahoo email, and enter a ID, and they say &q ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions How do I run a script such as calling the ipconfig.exe and place the output in a text box in a application Gui form?

  I was wondering how to run or call command line executables such ipconfig.exe and ping.exe and place them into a form. I want the output from the ipconfig.exe to redirect back into a textbox in my visual basic express edition application form. Thanks!!!!   Those are strange answers, given that if you back up for a moment that VS2005 has classes that will do what ipconfig and ping will do. Certainly activating two processes is not as efficient as using those classes. ...Show All
