• Visual Studio Express Editions standalone version?

  HI all I have built a small c# app in visual studio express edition and it works from the debugger now i run each exe file (release and debug) from outside the debugger and they wont run. Their size is 24k, so i figure they need to be statically linked etc but i cant see how and where in Visual Studio to do this I dont want a whole installer, just to be able to run the app by itself on another pc :) does anyone have any suggestions many thanks and regards Buzz The applications will run fine without Visual Studio provided the user has .NET Framework installed. You can get .NET Framework from Windows update by doing "Custom". Beyond this - one of the benefits of using the .NET Framework is the abil ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Making a conttrol movable, 90% working need a little more help.

  I have a usercontrol with a label spanning across the top of it like a title bar. I have successfully got the usercontrol to move around the screen when a user left-mouse- button click and hold on the "titlebar label" My problem is if the mouse is moved too fast, the pointer "disconnects" from the control label and the move stops working since I am no longer on the header. Here is my code: two function, one for the initial left mouse down, and the other for the movement. Is there a better way to have the usercontrol move around the screen. Think of it like this, the user control is like a mini window, and I want to be able to drag the usercontrol around the screen via a "title bar label" and the below ...Show All

On the project properties for your workflow project, set the startup to start the debug build of your winform exe. Matt ...Show All

• Visual C# How do you Export Template in VSTS?

  I'm using Visual Studio 2005 Team Suite. I've read all the help files on exporting a project template. There's just one problem- if I go to the File menu, the option Export Template just is NOT there. Am I missing something simple Or does this SKU not support export Thanks, Jeff Yeah running devenv /resetuserdata didn't bring back the export option. Although there were some other annoying side effects. Do I need to install a different SKU I'd figure VS Team Suite would cover just about everything so it should certainly have Export to Template. Thanks, Jeff ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Where is WM5 project type in VS2005?

  I have seen several references to selecting Windows Mobile 5 as the project type when creating a project for that type of unit. Under Smart Devices, my VS2005 (standard) has 2003 PocketPC, 2003 Smartphone and Windows CE 5.0, which as I understand it is not WM5. I have also downloaded and installed SP1 which takes forever for me but it did complete just fine - the choices for smart device projects are the same Perhaps I just don't understand but if I want to target my new IPAQ 2495b with WM5, then that's what I want to select - just like it's mentioned.
