Visual Studio Express Editions Webbrowser - need options - help needed
Hey how can i make a option on a menu strip under file called work offline and what i need it to do is basicly turn the browser off so that i can't connect to the net like in Internet Explorer etc... also dose any one know how to get the favourites to work say if some one clicks on a button i need it to popup with a small window with there favourites in cheers. This is a documentation error, the property is indeed read-only. This is probably really a bug in control. The control uses the IWebBrowser2 interface to talk to Internet Explorer and that interface does let you set the offline mode. You can fix this problem through a back-door. Project + Add Reference, click the COM tab and select Microsoft Internet Controls. That gives you a ...Show All

SQL Server Using the results of a script component
Hi There, I have to populate data from two oracle databases. I have a list of ids from one table and I have to query those ids in the second table (in a different database) and populate that data into a sql server. This is the approach I have taken...

Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Adding a simple shader to render a ModelMesh
I'm trying to figure out how to render with a shader instead of the default render style. I have quite a bit of experience with CG shaders from NVidia so I know the concepts, but when I'm trying to use XNA's HLSL, nothing is showing up. Here's what I'm doing. Any ideas what's wrong I'd like to note that I HAVE been following the help files, but the help files go into DrawIndexedPrimitive rather than mesh.Draw(), which I know isn't required and only helps to confuse me with the idea of applying a shader effect. On Load: shaderEffect = content.Load<Effect>("Content\\Shaders\\simple"); shaderEffect.CurrentTechnique = shaderEffect.Techniques["TransformTechnique"]; effectParam_wvp = shaderEffect.Pa ...Show All
SQL Server Asynchronous data flow tasks how to run more than 4 at a time
Hi guys, i have a for each loop and it has about 20 data flow tasks (simple data extractions). i notice when i run the package it only runs up to 4 data flow tasks at a time. others have to wait till one of the first 4 flows finishes. i was wondering if there's a way to change the limit of how many data flow tasks can run at a time. is there a property some where i know this will be stressfull to the server, but the server is well equiped with CPU power and memory, so performance will not be an issue. any thoughts Package.MaxConcurrentExecutables Property Valid values are one and higher, or -1. Other values are invalid. A value of -1 allows the maximum number of concurrently running executables to equal the numb ...Show All
Windows Live Developer Forums Close but no cigar - Bug plotting polygons
There seems to be a problem plotting polygons and polylines when you have your display DPI set to large fonts (120 DPI) rather than normal size (96 DPI). I've been trying to so a relatively simple plot of a square on a map. My problem was that the square wasn't centered around what should be the mid point correctly. My first thought was that I was doing something wrong so I tried plotting 2 squares one with the top left at the same Lat-Long location as bottom right of the other one. It ended up that there was a big gap between them. It struck me last night that the problem might not be me and on a whim changed my display DPI setting, magically the corner of the 2 squares were at the same point. What seems to be happening when I ...Show All

Software Development for Windows Vista Activity Designer Strange Results
Hiya I have tried writing a designer for a custom composite activity and in order to get the children of the activity to be drawn I have tried using base.PaintContainedDesigners(e); and base.OnPaint(e); The composite activity sits in a sequencial workflow and using either of these lines produce some very strange results. The activity prior to my composite gets drawn fine, then the composite itself is drawn fine but with no children, then all the other activities and the workflow itself seem to be drawn offset from the top left to the middle of my composite. This means that apart from the two activities drawn first, all of the other including the workflow heading half disappear off to the right and can't be scrolled to. D ...Show All
Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Unit testing WPF controls with NUnit
Hi there, Has anyone had experience testing WPF controls using NUnit There are a few problems I've come across that seem to make it a pretty time consuming task: - The problems that NUnitForms tries to solve - ie. simulating a button click etc... - NUnit uses MTA Threads - in some cases WPF controls require STA threads. There's a 'CrossThreadRunnerHelper' solution out there that allows you to run a test in a separate thread. But this also makes things even more complex. Does anyone have any ideas on making this process a bit simpler Samples/Examples would be appreciated. Thanks, Ashley We've been using MbUnit happily for this task, which lets you put an attribute like this o ...Show All
