• Visual Studio MsBuild bug when project files are in v2.0.50727 or subfolder

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Visual Studio 2005, display in secondary monitor help.

  Hi all, I have a form that is a playlist control for powerpoint slides that I would like to run as a control panel on the primary display monitor, but have the form display and run the powerpoint slides on the secondary display monitor. I am using a dual monitor video card. Could someone be kind enough to point me in the right direction as to how to accomplish this. Thanks in advance. Thase Thase, this is mostly a PowerPoint issue- not a VSTO 2005 SE one, and those of us hanging out on this forum are mostly experts in the latter rather than the former. However, you are in luck! I know some of the PowerPoint programmability MVPs, and I know that they are monitoring the ng's for PowerPoint dev. You can fin ...Show All

• Visual Basic Passing Pointer to an Array in VB

  I have an array i have to pass the array as a pointer. WIllfin Arrays are reference types which are marshalled differently between managed and unmanaged code. (see ms-help://MS.VSCC.v80/MS.MSDN.v80/MS.VisualStudio.v80.en/dv_fxinterop/html/049b1c1b-228f-4445-88ec-91bc7fd4b1e8.htm) Since you specify you are doing this in VB, it shouldn't be a problem but could get tricky if dealing with interfacing with API's. To pass a parameter to a method, you can either pass it ByVal or ByRef. The other trick is being aware of what you are passing. In the case of a simple Integer, passing it ByVal means passing a copy of it where-as passing it ByRef means passing a pointer to the memory containing the integer. Thu ...Show All

• Visual C++ Visual Studio 2005 can't find the standard include directories for C++ project

  I have just installed Visual Studio 2005 Team Edition for Software Developers and imported a project that was created in Visual C++ 6. Building the project gave hundreds of errors (C2039 'name' is not in std namespace). After a lot of hair tearing (which I just can't afford being a bit thin on top) I found that VS 2005 couldn't find the standard include files. After I added C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\include and C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\PlatformSDK\Include in the VC++ Directories under options it built correctly. So why can't VS 2005 resolve the directories $(VCInstallDir)include etc. I still have VC++6 installed as well as Visual C# 2005 Express Edition. My Windows version is Microsoft ...Show All
