• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Access sub-properties in <Setter/>

  Hi, Suppose I have: public class CustomPanel : StackPanel { public Image Image { get { return _image }; } } And I have this style: <Style TargetType="{x:Type CustomPanel}"> <Setter Property="Image.Width" Value="100"/> </Style> That seems to set the width of the panel rather than the width of the image. How can I specifically target the image width and set the panel width separately I tried this but it gives a compile error: <Style TargetType="{x:Type CustomPanel}"> <Setter Property="(Image).Width" Value="100"/> </Style> Thanks, Kent Boogaart We're looking at it, but no plan ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions How can I get the current Browser URL?

  I have the need to automatically get the current page's URL for the user, how can I do that in VC++ 2005 express please DOSrelic wrote: I know very well about the capabilities of the browsers to save .mht files but if you try to do that in IE7 and there are any spaces in the path it substitutes %20 for each space making that file inaccesible! Besides whith with the amount of ASP.NET infiltrating the web it is impossible to save the pages without IIS and probably the initiating server's input too! These 'poor' people you speak so disparagingly about have scrimped and saved to upgrade their operating system are not stupid but cannot afford broadband as well! I do not believe you have saved a .mht with IE7 because 50% of t ...Show All

• Visual Basic String without terminator "

  Hi there, I was using an array of chars to take chars from a serial port buffer. But, when I do a cast to a string, for some strange reason, my string becomes something like string="haskjdh Without the last " !! I think this is really strange, did it happen to any of you P.S. Now I use the ReadExisting method that returns a string directly, but I really curious about the reason for this strange error :-) Thx Code: Dim buf(100) As Char If (Me.SerialPort1.BytesToRead > 0 And Me.SerialPort1.BytesToRead > 100) Then Me.SerialPort1.Read(buf, 0, 100) ElseIf (Me.SerialPort1.BytesToRead > 0) Then Me.SerialPort1.Read(buf, 0, Me.SerialPort1.BytesToRead) End If dim st as string=buf ...Show All

• SQL Server Word Wrap database query results

  In Visual Studio 2005, when you are looking at the results of a database query, or table (show table data) etc., how can you make the results field values wrap like we use to be able to do in VS 2003 and in Visual Interdev. If the field values were longer then what was display in the grid output results, you could expand the column width and row height and the field values would wrap to fit. If I try to do the same thing in VS 2005 or in sql enterprise manager 2005 the field values don't wrap, they remain displayed in one long line and they just get cut off after a specific number of characters. If the problem is what I think, you have a default lenght for non xml data to retrieve to grid, of 65535 ch ...Show All

• SQL Server Digest Authorization on HTTP Endpoint

  I need to enable digest authorization on an HTTP endpoint, because the integration tools for some java code that needs to connect to it does not support NTLM or kerberos - only digest and basic. I setup a test endpoint in order to test only digest authorization (as opposed to the final endpoint which needs both digest and integrated), but I can't even get that to work - when I point my browser to it to see the wsdl it pops up with the login box, but the login always fails. I have the feeling I'm missing some very minor piece that will just make the whole thing work. Below are some log entries as well as the script to create the test endpoint I'm hitting. Any ideas are very welcome, I've banged my head on this one for far too long. ...Show All

• Visual C# Writting to a file

  I was wondering if it is possible using streamwriter to make some of the text you write to a file bold I have been trying to figure this out, and have no luck in searching various websites if it is possible. What I am trying to do is, write to an .rtf file and have for example: "Name:" in bold and then the person's name normal style afterwards. If you can't using streamwriter and there is a way, any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Yeah, this might not be the best way to write to an rtf file, but it seems simple enough. I did notice that the header part is required though. To figure out what parts are necessary and what parts aren't, create a new text file in notepad and save it as a ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL 2005 upgrade

  Hi all, We need to update our SQL 2000 to 2005. We plan to use it on a computer with 2 processors. Actually we update 2 servers that form a cluster, running web applications. I think there is no update version from 2000 to 2005. So we have to buy 2 full versions of SQL 2005 For our case it's probably best to buy SQL 1CPU version But we have 2 processors on each server. Is there a CPU license Do we have to buy 2 SQL 2005 1CPU plus 2 licenses for 1 (more) CPU Sorry, I am not so familiar with SQL. I am not the guy making the upgrade. I just have to order the correct version and licenses. Ok, I found out that there are processor licenses. But strange is that I don't find them in the online shops. (We are in Sw ...Show All
