• .NET Development Sorry if it is a stupid doubt...

  Well... VS 2005 come with .net Frame Compact Framework 1 SP3 Developer, .net Compact Framework 2... Can I update it How Thanks Hi, You are correct, Visual Studio 2005 comes with 2 versions of the .NET Compact Framework. These versions are used for mobile device development for various types of mobile devices and various versions of Windows CE. I'm not sure why you would need to update those versions of the .NET Compact Framework though. There is not yet a newer version of the .NET Compact Framework available to update to. Can you clarify the scenario you are working on and why you want to update these Thanks! Aaron ...Show All

• Visual C++ How to eject removable devices programmatically?

  Removable devices, such as usb devices, flashmedia card, can only be safely removed by clicking the icon in system tray in WinXP. But how to make it programmatically I tried IOCTL_STORAGE_EJECT_MEDIA, FSCTL_DISMOUNT_VOLUME, but only have effect in several special cases. Any advice appreciated! Thanks for your reply. I searched one KB that talking about this topic: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/165721 But it uses the same method as I mentioned above, and can't completely remove devices from system. However, that KB article is helpful and the code provided is more clear & reasonable than mine. :- ) ...Show All

• .NET Development Tooltip bug?

  Vb.NET 2005 I create a tooltip control in a form and enter some tooltip texts for another control. When hoovering the mouse all seems fine, the tooltip appears etc... However after a few seconds it disappears. Annoying to the user, but then comes the real annoying thing: It won't reappear again until you restart the program (or have multiple controls and hoover another control then back to the first again). This can't possibly be the desired behaviour I tried setting AutoPopDelay to something high but the docs says 5000 (ms) is the max. Help I agree, it is annoying that moving away from the control and then coming back doesn't reshow the tool-tip. You should be able to get the tool-tip to display ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Visual Studio and x64 July CTP Build 5472.5

  I have seen postings that people have been doing development with Visual Studio 2005 on Vista. What is the trick to getting Visual Studio running Is there compatibility issues with the July CTP x64 Build 5472.5 I was able to install the Professional Edition without any issues. However, every time I try to launch VS Pro 2005, Vista complains that "Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 has stopped working" and closes the application shortly after. I have not installed the July 06 WDK yet. Is the WDK required for VS to work correctly on windows I hated to waste a DVD just to find out that it still did not work. It appears that all 32 bit applications have the exact same problem including IE7 x86 32. I'm guessing there is a bug in the Vi ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) customizable toolbars?

  I've been playing with the ToolBar / ToolBarTray classes a bit, and was wondering how to best go about implementation of a customizable toolbar. Are there any provisions in WPF that would make this easier, e.g. serializing / restoring the current toolbar configuration, rearranging controls, dragging controls from a "control library dialog" onto the bar, etc. If anyone has some experience with this, I'd be grateful for some insights, pointers, or even samples.

• SQL Server Performance problem: 2000 vs. 2005

  I copied a 2000 database onto 2005 on another box. Running the exact same SELECT query, with 7 tables joined, is running in less than 2 minutes on 2000 and almost 3 hours on 2005. The 2005 box is "bigger and better". I've compared the sp_configure output. There are differences in max worker threads, cost threshold for parallelism, and priority boost. I don't think any one of these is significant. I checked the server properties and the database properties and, again, I did not see what I would consider any significant differences. The 2005 instance has 4GB memory, as opposed to 2GB, but not using that much. In fact, the Total Server Memory (KB) for the instance indicates around 1,230,000 for some reason.
