• Windows Forms Execute another form's Sub from a Dialog

  Hi, I'm new at vb2005 and this is my problem: Let's say I have a form with a Combobox filled from a dataset, and I want to show a dialog where the user might insert a new value for that Combobox. If the user hits the Ok button, the values are stored ok, but what would I have to do to reload the Combobox content as soon as the user hits ok in the dialog, so the new value appears on the list Thanks in advance.     George Waters wrote: but what would I have to do to reload the Combobox content as soon as the user hits ok in the dialog, so the new value appears on the list Thanks in advance.

• SQL Server Conditional Split problem

  Don't know if anybody else has had this - In a dataflow task I added a conditional split that currently has two possible outcomes. Initially this was a straight choice. Later I added an "or" clause on the second leg thus expression1 || expression2 on which the second leg ceased working. After some mental anguish I deleted the component and then reimplemented it using identical logic and magically (or so it appears) it all worked. So, it appears the old tricks still apply... When I created the new component, I copied the old expressions to Notepad and then pasted them back in again, so your scenario is unlikely (though of course not impossible.) ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Deserializing A SAML Token Received From An STS?

  Having received an RST message, an STS serializes a SAML token into the body of the RSTR message returned to the client. In that the RST and RSTR support was pulled from WCF, it would appear that the SAML token need be deserialized on the client side for caching and reuse. Documentation concerning the SamlSerializer, SecurityTokenResolver, WSSecurityTokenSerializer and SecurityContextSecurityTokenResolver classes is sparse, however, and attempts to do so consistenty result in: "The SecurityKeyIdentifier that was found in the SamlSubject cannot be resolved to a SecurityToken. The SecurityTokenResolver must contain a SecurityToken that the SecurityKeyIdentifier resolves to." Little seems to have been written concerning th ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Keyboard State and color manipulation of textures

  Hello, I have a couple of questions and I'll do my best not to babble on. First, a little description of what I'm doing: I'm currently working on a little XNA application that effectively draws a game board in 2D (all textures) and then places new pieces on the board when I press the 'N' key and if I click on a piece, then I can move it. If I click on it once more, it will be 'let go.' Here's the questions: 1) When I press 'N' quickly, I get 6 new pieces (since it cycles through update 6 times before I let go... what can I say too slow on the draw ;) ). To fix this, I created a variable called nPress. Here's the code: bool nPress = false ; KeyboardState keyboardState = Keyboard .GetState(); if (keyboardState.I ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Using the XNA Framework for applications other than games

  Just a quick question: Will it be possible to use the XNA Framework outside of the XNA Game Studio to develop applications other than games (like CAD programs or something similar) I'm asking this since it will probably replace MDX and therefore represent the more "up to date" version of the DirectX functionality. Well, that's perfectly okay I expected the "part-time-job" functionality of XNA Framework to be coming last in the development cycle. What I was more concerned about was the ability to use it outside of the XNA Game Studio. But since it is just assemblies like the rest of the .NET Framework, I should have no problem whatsoever using them in VC++ Express if I want to, ...Show All

• Visual Basic Login

  Does anyone know if it is possible to use an html registration form, and have all info stored in a database automatically. THen when people login, it looks for their login information in the database. How could I do this Thanks. Hi, Yes what you are talking about can ( and usually is ) implemented using ASP or ASP.Net. ASP= Active Server Page and the " code behind " generates the HTML web page from this code upon user requests such as a LOGIN . This code can be linked to a database " usually in the Apps folder " to look up user names or in the case of commercial web-sites, items and their prices sometimes with pictures too. An ASP page ends with .asp or .aspx and runs in a special folder. This special folder is the I ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions For loops

  Hi, I'm trying to figure out how to 'spawn' for loops on the fly. For example, I have three nested for loops such as: for (int x = 0; x < 2; x++) for (int y = 0; y < 2; y++) for (int z = 0; z < 2; z++) Console.WriteLine(x.ToString() + y.ToString() + z.ToString()); which displays the binary numbers 000 to 111, what I want to be able to do is pass an arguement (like the value 3) to a function which creates 3 nested for loops and behaves as the above for loops. The idea being that this function can be reused being given a different value resulting in that many nested for loops being executed. I'm new to C# so any ideas would be welcome. Cheers.
