• Visual Studio RDLC Report Viewer and No Data Showing

  I have a bunch of local reports that will be running off of seperate SQL stored procedures. I have set up a form that contains a report viewer control. I have set up a dataset that contains my stored procedures. I want to make this dynamic so that I only have to have one report viewer control for all my reports.

• .NET Development Debugging Web Services

  How to debug a web service from client application In the client application web service reference is added. Can we debug the web service Well, if your web service is running in debug mode and your client application is calling that, you should be able to place break points and debug it. So your web service (may be on local machine or somewhere else) need to be in debug mode and attached with debugger. when client application calls, it will stop on break points.

• Visual Studio Tools for Office [Word] Runtime error on loading custom add-in

  Hello, I have a problem with loading my own add-in after I deployed the setup and installed the add-in. When I run the add-in directly out of visual studio it all works fine. However when I generate the setup.exe and use it to install the add-in it won't display in Word. When I go to the COM-addins dialog in Word I can see that it is indeed installed. When I click on it, i see the message: "Not loaded. There was a runtime-error ...... ". My guesses are that it has to do with security or something. I already put the macro's security to the lowest level, and followed the directions on http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa537179(office.11).aspx to add something for the security.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Optimizing meshes

  Basically, I'm building a sort of Isometric Tiling engine in XNA, the same you see in games such as Civilization. Each tile in my 3D world is a mesh (cube), so many cubes form the grid or playing area. As expected, rendering many meshes at once slows down the game a lot. It can handle a 15x15 grid (225 meshes) but going over 20x20 (400 meshes) slows the game down to a halt. I'm not sure how they do it in modern games, but I'm assuming they build the terrain seperately and then represent it as a grid.. so that could be a possibility. I also thought of using sprites to represent the tiles but that (I think) severely affects the 3D stuff I can do, such as panning/rotating a camera or selecting objects. So what sort of optimizations c ...Show All

• SQL Server Complex Order By Logic

  I apologize if this is not the appropriate forum for this question. I've written a searchable database-driven application in classic ASP and vbscript with a SQL Server backend. What I need to do is this: order the results of a query so that if the first "order by" field is null to order that entry based on the second "order by" field. The application I am writing is a database of books, and my client wants the results to be ordered by Author, unless there is no Author, in which case he wants that entry ordered by book title. Here is an example of how he wants the books sorted: Adamson, Jan - Book X Bible, The Wilson, Jonathan - Book Y I hope I've explained the scenario correctly. What's the best way to wr ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums Support for 'picture' in 'dataDesired' field

  The information that the contact gadget provides is pretty great - passportname was a huge relief to see - but it lacks one really great field - the picture. A URL to the user's picture would be very handy. As a workaround, I wonder if a URL to the picture can be constructed using the passport ID. Thoughts Hi Eron, Getting contact image tiles incorporated into the contacts gadget UI is high on our list for the 2.0 release. As it turns out, the image tiles are stored on a different server inside Microsoft than the contacts data, which raises the complexity of the gadget. We opted to axe the image for the 1.0 release to focus on the core mechanism. As for returning image tiles to the host web page ...Show All

• .NET Development top-level param default value is ignored

  Hi, I have the following line right after the output element in my xslt file: <xsl:param name="selectedColorScheme" select="'default'" /> I set a breakpoint after this point so that I could check the value of "selectedColorScheme" and it shows up as null instead of the string "default". If I change it to a variable instead of a parameter, it works. Unfortunately, that doesn't give me the flexibility of passing in an override value. Am I missing something here MylesRip wrote: Hi, I have the following line right after the output element in my xslt file: <xsl:param name="selectedColorScheme" select="'default'" /> I set a breakpoi ...Show All
