• Audio and Video Development What features of the EVR work on XP?

  Hi.... My team is in the process of building a video pipeline using DShow. Our application needs to work on XP and Vista...hence the decision to use DShow. We are currently trying to figure out which renderer to use in our application : the VMR9 or the EVR. However, all documentation for the EVR talks about the features of the EVR that work on Vista. Can anyone please recommend how to find out the features on the EVR that will work on XP. Thanks!! The EVR is officially supported on Vista. It is available for download on XP through the WPF redistributable, but it not registered on the system. For that reason, the VMR9 is probably a better choice for development on XP. ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Great resource Troy!

  I've been looking at different linq resources to keep up with the direction of the software industry and found your site extremely helpful. Those of you looking for a lot of information, well organized, in one place should check it out: http://www.hookedonlinq.com Jeff Thanks Jeff, I was trying to fly under the radar for a while until i filled out some more content and made sure the wiki engine was stable. There is a lot more information to go up. I've got code samples and unit tests for all of the standard query operators; LINQ to Objects will be looking good then. I need to do a lot of work on LINQ to SQL information, and i've got nothing on LINQ to Entities at the moment. Anyway, its a start, and hopefully as LINQ ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums Getting map tiles to load in correct order

  I have a div on the page where the map tiles should go. VE pre-loads tiles all over on the page, so that when a user pans the map, the photos for the new area of the map are already available. However, on the first load of the map, instead of first loading the tiles that are supposed to go into the map div, and then loading the tiles around the map div, VE doesn't really have a good order in which it loads them. I feel like it first loads the tiles around the map div (which are invisible), then the tiles in map div, then some more tiles around the map div. Anyone have any tricks to get VE to load tiles in the map div first - so that the users see the actual map faster Thanks! Map loading times have always ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Categories for other users Outlook 2007

  Hi all, I have an VSTO Add-in Outlook 2007 application that is accessing other user's shared calendars and created appointments for them. We also have a set of custom colored Categories that must be applied to these appointments. So I create the Categories by updating the Application.Session.Categories and the appoinments show the correct colors in my calendar, but they don'ts show up in the other user's shared calendars. So here's the question: How can I create these Categories programmatically for other users I know that Microsoft has removed the Master List that was stored in the registry for Outlook 2007. I've been searching for this solution high and low, tried many different approaches like using CDO, etc.. nothing works. Thx... Ale ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Writing to Global Shared memory from an Application in Vista.

  Hi all, Global shared memory is created by a service which is used by my user mode application to communicate with the service through global mutexes and events. This as of now works well in Vista RC1. 1) Are there any restrictions that an application should not write to global shared memory already created by service This application does not has any elevated privileges. 2) Can application created global named objects like event and mutex Again the application is running under a standard user privilege and not as admin. 3) Can a 32bit application on a 64bit machine get interfaces to a 64bit Local server COM object Is there any special processing required in the 32bit app or in the 64bit local server COM object.

• SQL Server ODBC Driver for SQLServer Everywhere/Compact from Access

  So far I've been unable to connect to a test SQLServer Everywhere/Compact database with MS Access. I installed the new SQLServer 2005 Native Client to no avail. Has anyone done this You can only connect to an instance of a SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition database when it is running on a Windows CE-based OS or Tablet PC (you can create a SQL Server 2005 Mobile database in Visual Studio and, I believe, SQL Server Management Studio as part of the development process). When SQL Server Everywhere becomes available, it should, as you've surmised, fit your needs. In the meantime, you can check out the development experience using SQL Mobile today...take a look at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp url=/ ...Show All

• Visual Studio macro to build MSI project - get popup when I set Version property

  OK, I've written a macro to build a MSI project, incrementing the version and setting the productcode GUID. However, as soon as I set the Version property I get a popup saying "It is recommended that the ProductCode be changed if you change the version. Do you want to do this ". I run this macro from the command line as part of an automatde build but this popup stops the build. It didnt do this in VS2003, but it does in VS2005. Any solutions: ways to suppress popups, or anything else Order doesnt seem to matter (ie version before ProductCode or after) Code: Dim prop As EnvDTE.Property Dim propVersion As EnvDTE.Property ' get the project version property propVersion = GetPropertyByName(proj.Properties, ...Show All

• Visual Basic Problem with Design view

  I am writing an application which manipulates many fields of data. Today, I implemented a new datatable which contains over 50 fields of info. I dragged this onto the Design view as "Details." The controls were placed one above the other with the last ones well off the screen area. I have spent a few hours moving, aligning, re-sizing etc. to get them properly laid out. However, I am unable to expand my Form in the design view to be able to grab the last few fields at the bottom and drag them up into the space I have created for them. The handle lets me expand the form to a certain point then stops, before I can see the last few controls! I know that these other controls are there as when I run the application (obviously ...Show All
