• Smart Device Development Knowing when Application.Run(MainForm) has finished showing the MainForm

  Hi all, Is there any way of knowing when the Application.Run(MainForm) has finished showing the MainForm I need to show another form on top of the MainForm, but i don't know when it's loading is finished and the new form is always hidden by the MainForm... Any help would be great! Regards, Pedro Actually I can't. I don’t have control over the second form, I simply run a method which internally shows the form, not giving me access to its instance. The best I can do is run the method in the GotFocus of the MainForm, wich is activated when Application.Run(MainForm) internally sets the form visibility to true. The problem is that while its processing Visible=true, it verifies that the MainForm ...Show All

• SQL Server service broker mirror database

  Hi I tried to setup service broker to fail over to a mirror database. After the target database failed over, the message I send stays in sys.transmission_queue with no error in transmission_status.

• Visual Studio Team System Error opening project after schema import

  Created a new SQL Server 2000 database project, then use the Import Database Schema function in the Solution Explorer. This worked well, importing the DB objects, as well as displaying some errors in the project where table changes would cause views to break. However, if I close the solution, then attempt to re-open it, after about a minute of "Processing Schem Objects" in the status bar, VS reports the following error: Unable to create a new relationship because there is already an existing relationship between the specified schema identifiers.

• Visual Basic How can I clone a control?

  Hi folks, could anyone please help me with the following problem: TextBox1.Text = "Test" Dim control As Control = New Control control.Name = "TextBox1" Dim s As String = control.Text When I debug this relatively simple code the string s contains nothing or just "". Why I thought that since I set the control.Name = "TextBox1" it would also clone other properties from TextBox1. Ny .NET version is 1.1. That's not how it works. The "New Control" code creates a generic control which is *not* the same as a TextBox control, TextBox is derived from TextBoxBase which is derived from Control. Neither the Control class nor the Tex ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Do you use custom attributes, and for what?

  As a part of designer features, we are evaluating custom attributes. Such attributes would be placed on classes or class members in addition to mapping attributes (or mapping file). Do you currently use custom attributes for anything that would be required on mapped classes What are the must-have examples We have already considered serialization (e.g. DataContract and DataMember) but that may be doable through some higher level option to auto-generate serialization attributes instead of specifying them as custom attributes for a class or its members. Thanks in advance. Dinesh I haven't actually used either yet, but DebuggerDisplayAttribute and DebuggerBrowsableAttribute seem like they could be useful for mapped classes. ...Show All
