• .NET Development ClickOnce not FIPS compliant?

  I work at a military installation where we have a number of in-house programs that we were migrating to .NET 2.0. After converting about 3 projects over .NET 2.0 and testing the ClickOnce deployment, upgrades done to the domain security policy caused ClickOnce to break. The securtiy policy enabled the "Use on FIPS compliant algorithms for hashing/encryption" setting. So now, every time a ClickOnce installtion attempts to take place, we get an error similar to this one: (note - this is not MY error message...but it is very similar. This person had the same error a year ago...and didn't post any resolution. This is the only incident of my problem that I've been able to find...and no clear resolution has been made available - or eve ...Show All

• Visual Basic Command Button - Delete Key

  I have a command button named "cmdRemove" When I click that button, it removes one value from my current ComboBox value list. My question is: Is there any way to substitue a key for that button. So instead of clicking button, I can click "Delete key" and that will do the same as clicking my "cmdremove" button. so you want when the focus is on the cmdRemove button, if a delete key has been pressed to invoke the button ...ok...doesnt make much sense but ok :-) implement the keydown event then....   private sub cmdRemove_KeyDown(byval sender as object, byval e as KeyEventArgs) handles cmdRemove.KeyDown    if e.KeyData = System.Windows.Forms.Keys.Delete then  & ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Questions about TreeView Component.

  Hello, In my programs, there are many situations where a TreeView component is needed or at least wanted. But the inconvenience that I get a stop using the TreeView component is not "live preview"... What I mean by "live preview" is the following: For instance, when you use a tab container, then the tab get's each "page" that I can just drag and drop controls and text and so forth. But a tree container is just a white box with just nodes. And it doens't have each "page" for the node for me to make the "page" with controls and text and so forth. Is it possible for me to use the TreeView like a tab container then I would love to use treeview container. If not, Is it possible to ma ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions incremental linking is impossible, help please

  hi, I have been struggling with this problem for over 2 weeks, and i was told in one of the forums to try here. so here is my problem: I installed visual c++ 2005 express edition, and it works fine except the fact that it seems it has not incremental linking, it seems that for some reasons, it can't access the .obj files and update them (when I check their modification date, it shows the one from the last REbuild). I even disabled Norton antivirus and Zonealarm, thinking that they might have something to do. I have no clue what to do, and the size of my project makes impossible for me to live with this problem anymore. I can't wait for the whole source to REbulild after each modification !!! please, do you have any suggestions. Proj ...Show All

• SQL Server Can Reports Server be accessed through the a URL?

  im currently accessing SQL Server Reporting Services for an upcoming project. so far its all good & does everything i want it to. except i have a couple of questions which i cant seem to find a definite answer for 1. Can the reports server be accessed from a public website i realise there would be security issues with logon's etc but can it be done should it be done basically an authenticated user sitting at home could hit the reports server by coming in over the internet - without the need for VPN or similar 2. When you publish a report could a URL be emailed to a user to allow them to view the report again this would be a public URL the project we are working on has an ad-hoc reporting side to it. the problem occurs in that ...Show All

• Smart Device Development System.TimeZone.CurrentTimeZone

  I am writing an application for a Windows Mobile device using C# and .Net Compact framework. I need to obtain the system timezone or timezone that the user specifies in the Settings/Date and Time area. System.TimeZone is an abstract class and if I do try to call System.TimeZone.CurrentTimeZone I get a NotSupported exception. I have also tried p/invoking GetTimeZoneInformation() and also received a NotSupported exception. I went to pinvoke.net to see what methods are available under coredll.dll and GetTimeZoneInformation is not there, so I have no idea how I am to get the timezone.

• Windows Forms DataGridView Datasource property

  ArrayList Ips=c1.getIPs(); dataGridView1.DataSource = Ips; The getIps returns an arraylist with count 1 the content of arraylist 0th element is 'Pencil'. but in grid its displaying the length of string i.e 6 rather than displaying Pencil.What should i do to display the content of arraylist rather than the length. regards Your arraylist is probably filled with simple strings. You need to fill it with some custom objects, which would expose appropriate properties, e.g.: public class IP { private string text; public IP() {} public IP(string text) { this.text = text; } public string Text { get { return text; } set { text = value; } } } ...

• Visual Basic Try Catch Exception Errors

  Supposing I wrote a program that took two textbox values and changed them into integers and tried to multiply them. Then when the user entered 7 in the first box and "A" in the second box, my program is going to throw an exception (if not a fit) . If I use a Try Catch statement I can handle this problem. My question here is, Can I define my own exceptions ie, if I only want the user to enter values beween 5 and 60 for this computation can I define an exception of my own that would catch this I know that realistically in this scenario I would probably check the user input before trying the computation but I am using this as a very simplified example. I have just been watching a video on Error Handling and have just ...Show All
