• Windows Forms DGV, combobox, ContextmenuStrip, KeyStrokes

  I have a combobox derivative that operates in conjunction with my own generic data adapter and a contextMenuStrip derivative, they all work fine together in a non datagridview context, and they nearly work just as well in a datagridview context, although I've had to do some not very pretty adjustments to make that happen. There is just one item that has me stumped - the context menu "pops up" a textbox for a couple of the choices on its menu, the popping up works fine in a DGV, but the TextBox uses the Escape and Enter keys to terminate user input (which it does via the keyDown event), but it doesn't get ANY keyDown events in a DGV environment - consequently the textBox never gets to it's validated event, where amongst things lik ...Show All

• Visual Studio CR's MOST WANTED/HIDDEN/ARCHIVE/READONLY FILE: CrystalImageHandler.aspx in VS 2005 RC1

  I wish to thank anybody who is successful or made daring attempts in finding this file in VS 2005 RC1.  Images are not working. I create a Viewers vdir in IIS to point Crystalwebformviewer3 and understandably the aspx has gone missing from the vdir. Did anybody come across the aspx file Thank you CR for VS 2005 no longer needs a *.aspx file to be installed.  Instead, we use an HttpHandler mapping in the web.config file:   <httpHandlers>    <add verb="GET" path="CrystalImageHandler.aspx" type="CrystalDecisions.Web.CrystalImageHandler, CrystalDecisions.Web, Version=10.2.3600.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304"/>   </httpHandl ...Show All

  hi! i am new and heres what i try to do: I want to do an internal database where user create accounts, log in and view the information of the account! if some knows what i mean please HELP! Leo I don't know what you mean :). Ok, seriously, I do know what you mean in general, but you need to provide more information. I'm not sure what "internal" means in your description. In general terms you're talking about either a 2-tier client-server application on a SQL Server (or other relational) database, or a 3-tier web application on IIS + SQL Server (or other relational) database.

• Visual C++ No events, virtual functions, etc. for derived class in properties window

  Hallo! I'm trying to build a C++/CLI Windows Forms aplication. I added beside the main project a class library poject and added there a custom control class. After that I change the class code to inherit from System::Windows::Forms::Button so I can build a custom button control to be used in my main projects forms. My problem is now that I don't get any assistance from the IDE to override the Button's virtual functions or events like I was used to in MFC by clicking on the class in the class view and then selecting the needed event in the properites view. All the three tabs (events, messages and virtual functions) are all empty. Am I doing something wrong here Is this not the way you should subclass a control in .net Thanks for an ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) How do you change SelectedItem in a ListBox?

  I'm trying to accomplish what I thought was a simple task. I would like items in my ListBox to select automatically when I hover over them. I tried to set up a Style and use a Trigger on the IsMouseOver property of my ListBoxItem and change the IsSelected property, but that doesn't appear to update the SelectedItem property of my ListBox. What is the best way to select an item just by hovering over it Thanks! can you try < Style TargetType = " {x:Type ListBoxItem} " > < Style.Triggers > < Trigger Property = " IsMouseOver " Value = " True " > < Setter Property = " IsSelected " Value = " True " ></ Setter &g ...Show All

• Visual Studio Modifying fonts in the code view

  Hello, I am currently about to start a study of fisheye view visualization of source code. For this, in a developed add-in for VS2005, I need to be able to change the fonts of individual lines in the code view of VS2005 - is there any way to achieve this I.e. I need to be able to set font size individually for each line. As far as I can see from the documentation this is not possible - only changing the colors and styles can be done - is this correct If so - is it possible to take advantage of VS2005's code model (i.e. the TextSelections, points, CodeElements, etc.) in a custom build code view Best regards, Thomas Rene Sidor University of Copenhagen, Denmark Hello Ed, Thanks for your reply.

• .NET Development Modify System.Exception in SetILFunctionBody

  I am wondering if I can get some help on this. We have working "Proxy" that is invoked via insertion into methods and gathers all the calling arguments, etc. and passes to a handler. We are using the SetILFunctionBody during JIT compilation. It works fine for 1.1, but in 2.0 ONLY works when using LoaderOptimization other than SingleHost when hooking corlib methods such as the System.Exception .ctor. We are hooking many methods - all NON core methods work well. I have come to the conclusion that it has to do with Domain Neutrality of mscorlib (only) being in the shared domain. So, my questions are this: Other than the LoaderOptimizationAttribute OR the args to the CorRuntimeBindEx to load the CLR - how can one override the Loade ...Show All
