• Windows Forms Basic Web Browser

  Ok, I'm very new to C++ and would like to start building my knowledge by example and repetition. I have been getting myself used to working with the the Visual C++ 'designer' and would like to try making a basic web browser with 1 Textbox, 1 Button, and 1 WebBrowser control. I've done everything that I know to get the WebBrowser's Url to be set with the Textbox's value. I've tried this 'syntax', which works with other events (on other projects). webBrowser1->Url=String::Format("{0}", toolStripTextBox1->Text); error C2664: 'System::Windows::Forms::WebBrowser::Url::set' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'System::String ^' to 'System::Uri ^' I've tried other things, trying to get around the errors...with no luck. webBrow ...Show All

• Windows Forms Prevent a forum from taking the focus

  Hi there, I have an application that has a main form and several child forms that are disguised. By that I mean they don't look like separate forms (no borders and no title bar etc). I want people to not be able to click on these forms to allow them to steal the focus from the main window. Is there any way to achieve this Many thanks in anticipation of your help, Ady You could set set Me .Enabled = False for the form. This will prevent it from getting focus. ...Show All

• Windows Forms Differing number of rows in datagridview and the dataset it is bound to

  I have a datagridview bound to a dataset based on a query of a table in an Access database. When the query returns three or fewer rows, the process works correctly. However, if there are four or more rows, the dataset includes all the rows, but the datagridview will only display two rows and the code throws a subscript out of range error. I have searched my code for anything that might limit the number of displayed lines, to no avail. I know this is a very particular problem, but if someone could help me, I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance. Trevor Very curious - I made your recommended change and the index number noted in the error dropped from 3 to 2 - and the error moved to the allowusertoaddrows line.  Other ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Making custom user control as root of xaml

  i'd like to create a class that inherits from a WPF control say UserControl or Grid and then have another XAML whose code behind in turn inherits from that class.

• .NET Development Default Credentials not working for Basic Authentication from IIS server to IIS Server

  I have some .NET 2.0 Objects hosted inside of IIS that are accessed via .NET remoting. The Primary Website that the objects are hosted in is part of an application pool that logs on as a specific identity (e..g a Domain User) and the website is configured use Digest Authentication.  The objects on the Primary Website access another set of .NET 2.0 objects via a single remoting uri that points to a network load balance that represents two web servers.  The two Load Balanced web servers are not on a domain and they are configured to use Basic Authentication. My problem is that when the objects on the Primary Website attempt to communicate with the Load Balanced web servers they are not sending username and password infor ...Show All

• Visual Studio [Native to Managed Transition] in Call Stack

  I do a lot of debugging of mixed native/managed code. On VS.Net 2003 when stopped in managed code the Call Stack in the debugger would display the stack for both the managed and unmanaged calls on the stack. In VS.NET 2005 I get a couple of entries in the Call Stack window [Appdomain Transition] and [Native to Managed Transition], but no native frames underneath. How do I get the full stack displayed like it is on 2003 Thanks in advance. (I assume you've got interop-debugging enabled, and are seeing native frames in other cases). This may be a known issue that we're exploring a fix for. If you call from native code into managed code, and the managed code is not in the default appdomain, then t ...Show All

• SQL Server Transaction

  how can with in transaction execute statment1 and statment2 then rollback transaction but statment2 not rollback You are asking for something like autonomous transactions which is supported by Oracle. This is not possible to do in SQL Server currently without establishing different connection to the server via loopback mechanism. So in your case, you would execute statement2 in a different loopback connection using extended SPs or CLR SPs (in SQL Server 2005). Note that the transaction semantics depends on what you are doing in the statements and your current logic both server-side & loopback mechanism. Alternatively, from SQL Server 2000 onwards you can use a table variable to hold some state information during the transa ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System RACI Questions

  In MSFv4 each Activity is associated with Participating Roles. Those roles are divided into four categories: Responsible, Accountable, Consulted and Informed (RACI).

Please bear with me here, as I am coming from a traditional, plan-driven project management background. I know that MSF incorporates agile project management techniques that are radically different. Frankly I find this new approach extremely fascinating. However, I'm still trying to get a handle on this new world order. So, with that in mind I'm going to risk ...Show All
