• .NET Development Update requires a valid UpdateCommand when passed DataRow collection with modified rows

  I m coding with VB.Net. I have a datagrid on my form with a dataset as its datasource. The dataset contains rows from a joined two tables: Feature table and Price table. Feature table contains the customers'features. It has the ID of the features, the date the feature was added, the expiry date, the employee who added it.... The Price table is a look up table that contains the ID,price, Code, description and name of each feature. So my SQLquery is: SelectFeature_ID,Feature_DateEfect,Feature_DateExpiry,Feature_Employe, Price_Name, Price_Code, Price_Name... The reason why I use that joined query is that I need to display all the columns on my datagrid including the values from the Price look up table. But I update only the Feature table wit ...Show All

• Visual Studio Error exporting a report with image to EXCEL using ReportViewer

  I was using ReportViewer running under LocalProcessingMode. The report contains an image object that is stored in a datasource. The report rendered correctly from the UI. However, it has problem on the exported report using EXCEL format. When I opened the xls file, it has an error of "File error: data may have been lost.", all content on the report displays correctly in the EXCEL, but the image cannot be shown. If I exported it to PDF, it works perfectly. Any idea what causes the problem I use all the built-in code from the reportViewer control. The control has been set to use embeddedExternalImages as well. ...Show All

• Visual Basic Troubleshooting with IDE - Unable to open search!

  Hi. I have Visual Basic 2005 Express Edition and I am having problems with the "Search" option, where you type in Keywords and it searches on 4 different websites / places including my on-board MSDN. It has worked before, in the past, and has been very helpful... But lately it will not open when I try to start it. When I click on the "Search" button at the top it gives me this message box: "The type initializer for 'Microsoft.VisualStudio.CommonIDE.Help.Sylesheet' threw an exception." and that is all that it tells me. I have no idea why it says this and will not open. I have also tried reinstalling my software and that did not help a thing. Thanks, I hope you can help. -Joe M. ...Show All

• Visual C++ How to deploy MFCMIFC80.DLL?

  Hello VC++ Forum, I've added a CWinFormView to my MFC MDI project to show a .NET 2.0 control. Really really nice and working fine :) Now I wanted to test my stuff also on another machine and copied my DLLs and EXE there. That machine got .NET 2.0 and MFC 8.0 components installed. Well, when I want to open my View now, I get a message "MFCMIFC80.DLL version 1.0.0.0" missing. After that message, the program gets teared down and I must use the taskmanager to shut down its process. I tried to copy that DLL to the machine, but that doesn't help. I tried to install it to gac, but that won't work. Now I'm curious what I've got to do. I asked our deployment guy, and he said the MFC runtime stuff is installed on that machine. He doesn't h ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Selling Games on Xbox Live Arcade

  Hello, I am currently putting a team together to create new Xbox Live Arcade games. They will be using the XNA development tool and the projects will be financed by myself. How long will it be untill Indy developers can sell their games online in order to re-coup some of the money and produce additional games Any help is appreciated. Regards Ian sarge mat wrote: Well first you need to make the game and talk to Microsoft about developing it for Xbox live arcade. That's a fairly steep first step. I think more clear information on how indie developers can get onto Xbox Live Arcade is definitely in order. I can't help but feel Microsoft is being purposefully tight lipped in this regard because they'd like people to hope for th ...Show All

  1) We have OLTP DB on 2000 & OLAP DB on 2005. 2) We have decided to use SSIS for migration and interface is BIDS to develop, build, deploy & install SSIS packages. 3) We even have to encrypt some tables colmns data while reading from source so that it is secure in network and gets into target database as such requiring decryption for reports and front end display. 4) For database Security, we are going to use AES 256 Symmetric Encryption.

• Smart Device Development .Net developer walking on the dark side.

  I am working on an application for a custom Windows CE 5 device. The application will be written in C# and run in the Compact Framework v2. I have been asked a question that lead me to write a quick and dirty C program. The question is how much overhead does the CLR add to our network communications.

I have also written and deployed a network benchmark in C#. No ...Show All
