• SQL Server Deploying Reports from Development to (Remote) Production Machines

  After intial development of some reports on my notebook I will need to deploy them to a production machine remote from my office. In other words I will will not be able to directly from the BI (aka VS) Studio on my notebook. I had thought that I might be able to simply send the RDL files to the remote site and instruct them to create data sources with the same name (and in the same folders) on the local ReportServer (not the BI Studio) then use the "Upload File" option to upload the RDL files. I have tried this once so far, without success. The next alternative that I can think of to copy the entire set BI Studio project files to the production server (which should have the BI Studio installed) and deploy normally from ther ...Show All

• .NET Development IntersectClip Method vs Clip Property?

  Is there any difference between: System.Drawing. Region ClipRegion = new System.Drawing. Region (pGraphParams.m_rInnerRectangle); glLayer.LayerGraphics.Clip = ClipRegion; and glLayer.LayerGraphics.IntersectClip(pGraphParams.m_rInnerRectangle); For some reason, using IntersectClip is VERY ocassionally causing a stack overflow and I am struggling to figure out why. If I use the Clip property instead, I do not get this overflow. The only think the call stack really tells me is that it looks like something recursive is happening in ntdll.dll and it gets out of control. Indeed, I was calling IntersectClip without setting the Clip property first. I'm not sure why I was doing that, but it ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Question: 2D development for both widescreen and standard on 360

  If you want a 2D game to run on 360 for both widescreen and standard TV sets, would the easiest solution be to 'center' your game to fit a standard TV and have verticle bars on either side for people using widescreen What resolution should you develop your game in so it doesn't end up being stretched when running on a 360 Thank You. Because HDTV supports 480i, 480p, 720p, and/or 1080i, you will mostly want to support a resolution of 640x480 (that's 480i), 1280x720 (that's 720p), and 1920x1808 (that's 1080i; also there's 1080p but XBox360 doesn't have 1080p capability but only with when you watch HD-DVD movies, but I can be wrong). About the 480p, that's for EDTV (Enhanced Definition TV, similar to that of DVD quality), and so I don' ...Show All

• Visual Basic PrintForm does not Install via ClickOnce Deployment

  PrintForm works on my development workstation in both IDE & the application EXE installed from ClickOnce site. However, on 2 client PCs, both running Windows XP, the EXE fails with "Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks.Printing.PrintForm, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies.

• Visual Studio Express Editions Problems Running Made Programs

  Ok, I made my own little, "test" program, and when I tried to debug it, it debugged the file, but it didn't bring up my work. All it did was bring up a Command Prompt screen for a second, and then it closed the Command Prompt really fast. Any idea what is going on with this Hi, it seems that you dev a console app, if so the app'll close after what it done, you'd make the app pose when it have be done. The solution is to add a breakpoint or just add console.read(); at the end of your program. Thanks ...Show All

• SQL Server Installing ASP.NET 2.0

  Hello, I am wondering if anyone has any suggestions regarding the requirement of SQL Express of ASP.NET 2.0 and that this may "break" existing applications that require ASP.NET 1.1 and will not run on ASP.NET 2.0 Thanks in advance! Tim Just a few thoughts. Make sure your asp.net 2.0 & asp.net 1.1 applications are all in different folders and different application pools in IIS. I'm not sure what you have done, so you may want to check that each folder that is 1.1 is actually running under 1.1. You should be able to go into IIS and check the properties on each virtual folder. There should be an ASP.NET tab which lets you check this. You can also use this tab to change the ...Show All

• Visual C++ Visual Studio and ANSI standard

  I just got this book Teach Yourself C in 21 Days (which uses ANSI standard) and I can't get Visual C# to even use basic code like: #include <stdio.h> main() { printf( "Type stuff here" ); } Although, Visual C++ will, but even then some of the syntax isn't being read as legal code. How do I get Visual Studio to start using the ANSI standard... The ANSI standard is about the C language not about the C# language. You may want to look for a book about C# if you want to learn it. The equivalent of the above C code in C# is: using System; class Program { static void Main(string[] args) { Console::WriteLine("Type stuff here"); } } As for errors with Visual C++ that's because ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. XNA and multiple windows (swapchains) clarification.

  Hello all, I would like some clarification on the point of using multiple windows under XNA. I am looking at a major rewrite of software and am currently exploring alternatives. I have a Visual Basic 6.0 application that uses DirectX 8.1. The application has a main control form (standard VB controls). It also contains three other forms which render 3D displays. Each of these 3 windows uses standard VB controls for toolbars and statusbars; but render 3D scenes in a Picture box. Using this method I can render an aircraft in flight (chase view), a birds eye view of flight path, and weapon in flight view concurrently. I also have two forms rendering with the Win32 API, and another form for displaying database data in a grid control. T ...Show All
