• Visual Studio Team System webtest results

  i run a webtest for a homepage.it displays response time as 6sec,again i run the same test,it shows me 0.36,again i run the test,it shows 0.24sec. which values i hvae to consider for the webtest of homepage. Hi Nares - the first time response time of your homepage must be higher because of a first time compile if you haven't precompiled your web site. The response times thereafter are an accurate indication of your response time. Note that the response time of your website will vary slightly based on different factors. Your web test can measure the response time at various points in time and display interesting results about these variations. Check here for more info. - Anu ...Show All

• Visual Basic Merging two images together programmatically in VB.NET

  Hello all, Here's a question for ya. I have two image files (JPEGs but I can convert them to any other format), let's call them frame.jpg and image.jpg. Frame.jpg is an 800x600 image of a frame blank in the middle much like a picture frame, and image.jpg is a 300x300 image that I want to "frame" inside frame.jpg, right in the middle of it. Can I merge Image.jpg into Frame.jpg to end up with a "Framed_Image.jpg" file using VB.NET Thanks! N. Farr You can, and it's quite easy. All you need to do is paint one image onto another one. Take a look at the code here (the first half) for an idea of how to do it. While not exactly what you are looking for it is pretty close and sho ...Show All

• SQL Server "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" on Excel Render

  Hi all, I'm having an issue on export from RS2000 to Excel. I have a report made up of 10 smaller matrices, some with static rows and some with dynamic rows. The report deploys fine, and displays fine within report manager but fails to export to Excel by throwing the "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" error (log file entry at bottom of post). The same issue exists within VS .NET, and not just once the report is deployed. As some basic debugging, i stripped out some of the matrices from the report and it will render to Excel fine, provided there are no more than 2 matricies on the report. Interestingly enough, this issue only arose after making some changes to the previous report. Each m ...Show All

• Visual C# Vertically Splitting A Code Window, Is It Possible?

  When editing a C# file, I am able to vertically split the view, either via the IDE's menu bar (Window -> Split) or by clicking and dragging the splitter bar that sits just above the code view's vertical scrollbar. Does anyone know if it's possible to create a vertical splitter bar, such that I can have two views of one file, side-by-side, as opposed to one on top of the other AFAIK there is no command in VS to split a window vertically. I looked in the available commands and there are no options. However for source files you can create a new window using Window ->New Window which creates another window of the same file. You can then use a vertical tab group to give you what you want. Michael Tay ...Show All
