• Visual Basic Question WinAPI and VB.NET

  I'm trying to write an app that determines which items are selected in a ListView on a 3rd party app (Laserfiche), and am having very little luck so far. I've managed to get the windowhandle, and I think I've managed to enumerate the controls on the window, but I'm unable to assign values to variables. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. Here's the code: Public Class frmMain Dim processes As Integer Dim DocID As Integer Dim LFIE As New ImageEnable Dim file As New LFDocument Private Shared WM_QUERYENDSESSION As Integer = &H11 Private Shared systemShutdown As Boolean = False Private Sub Button3_Click( ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e A ...Show All

• SQL Server Excel with ADO problem

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Timers in Beta2 ?

  In Beta 1, the Game class had some properties that measured time. However, in Beta 2, there appears to only be a GameTime struct passed into Update. If I need a timer for other reasons, such as performance profiling, or for sub-frame measurements, what should I do I can P/Invoke the performance counters, but that's not Xbox compliant. The documentation has nada on "timer" and no static functions on GameTime et al. (It'd be nice if GameTime had a static accessor that returned a gametime, without messing up the "elapsed" part for the next call to update). I thought I remember seeing something in one of the PowerPoint presentations from either GDC or GameFest with a number that was very close to the clock speed of ...Show All

• SQL Server Any way to put a query timeout on the datasource behind a report model????

  Folks, we're wanting to put a timeout of 2 minutes on the queries which get generated by an ad-hoc report built in Report Builder. This particular report model has been generated on top of a cube by clicking the Generate Model button after creating an Analysis Services datasource in Report Manager. The connection string for that datasource reads: Data Source=(local);Initial Catalog=MyCubeDatabase I expected there to be a connection string property I could set (such as "Timeout=120") but I can't seem to find that in the documentation anywhere... And Timeout=120 doesn't appear to do it. Do you know of one If not, do you know of another way to put a timeout limit on a Report Builder generated query or a Report Builder report i ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Problem with the TFS - MS Project integraton.

  We have a problem with the integration of TFS and MS Project 2003. I manage to set the connection and import the Work Items. Publishing/refreshing also works well but when I save the .mpp-file and close MS Project, the connection is lost. If I compare with Excel, the connection information is stored in Propertes/Custom when importing the Work Items and more connection information is stored when the file is saved. The same goes for MS Project when importing Work Items and saving it but without closing the MS Project-file. However, the connection is lost and the information in Propertes/Custom is erased as soon as the file is closed. I can se from microsoft forums that this is a well knows problem but I have not seen a soluti ...Show All
