• Internet Explorer Development IE7, OE6 Printing problems with headers

  Having an intermittent problem printing To: From: CC: Subject: Attachments: headers on emails. Usually happens with larger emails or emails with large attachments or emails that have been replied to or forwarded from other people. Have installed Generic/text printer and sent the email to this printer but sometimes the headers are still missing even printing this way. I have if I open the offending email and highlight just one or two words in the text of the email eg Dear John and then print the email using my HP printer (not as text on Generic printer) - the headers then print and so does the selected words. Don't suggest using Outlook as often we only print the first page of emails as we already have the rest of the email on file especial ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums More efficient way to draw a circle then this...?

  I got this code form the VIAEarth website... it works great but it pretty slow to use. Does anyone know or have code that can produce the same effect but more efficiently this.circle = function(id, latin, lonin, radius, polygon) { // ref: http://viavirtualearth.com/Wiki/Draw+a+filled+Circle.ashx // returns polygon (if polygon != null) and polyline if not var locs = new Array(); var lat1 = latin * Math.PI/180.0; var lon1 = lonin * Math.PI/180.0; var d = radius/3956; var x; for (x = 0; x <= 360; x++) { var tc = (x / 90)* Math.PI / 2; var lat = Math.asin(Math.sin(lat1)*Math.cos(d)+Math.cos(lat1)*Math.sin(d)*Math.cos(tc)); lat = 180.0 * lat / Math.PI; var lon; if (Math.cos(lat1)==0) { lon=lonin; // endpoint a pole ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums Live Alerts & Visual Basic 2005

  Hi everyone, I'd like to know if anybody has some sample code using Visual Basic 2005 to send a Live Alert to Windows Live Messenger. I'd like to do some research on this topic but am not really sure where I should start. Are Live Alerts free for business use Thanks, ST Thanks again MattY!!! You said " your users individually must sign-up for alerts from you" so my question now is simple. Do I need to have a web site with some form that sends user's data to Microsoft Alerts page or do I need to register with Microsoft and provide some link (from Microsoft) on my site for the users to register, or is there another way I missed completely Is what I'm trying to accomplish o ...Show All

• SQL Server SSIS and datasources

  I have several SSIS packages which I have setup using a datasource to connect to the database. I should be able to switch between databases by just changing the server and database on the datasource but for some reason the ssis package keeps on using the old database. I have the connection managers setup to reference the datasource and can see the connection manager pointing to the new database but when I run a task by right clicking on it and choosing execute task it calls the stored procedure in the old database. I know it is doing this because I renamed the stored procedure in the old database and the task errored out saying it could not find the stored procedure. Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong Greg, SSIS use ...Show All

• .NET Development Microsoft Oracle .NET Data Provider Performance - repeated internal SQL

  Hi, We are noticing several similar SQLs (listed below) which execute many thousands of times per day. The SQL in question does not access any application tables, it accesses the Oracle data dictionary to retrieve metadata, which is essentially static in this context. On one particular day the SQL is issued some 24,024 times, performing 401 million block accesses and consuming 2,080 seconds of CPU. Our concern is that as our transaction rate increases that this SQL may become a performance bottleneck. I'm wondering if there are any configuration settings within ODP or application coding guidelines which may allow the SQLs to be issued once and the results held locally for re-use I have read about connection pooling and statement caching. ...Show All

  I saw the previous posting relating to LNK2019, but the solutions did not work for me. I am migrating a eVC project to VS 2005. I have two LNK2019 errors.

• .NET Development Dispose() or not to Dispose()

  I constantly contemplate the issue of whether to dispose an object when I’m done with it in a method call. For example if i am using a SqlCommand object within say a SelectCustomers method, in the finally portion of the try catch block should i Dispose() the command object or just let it be flagged for garbage collection and destroyed at that point I thought the whole meaning of Managed Code which .NET is is so you don't have to be as concerned these days with manually destroying objects as long as you aren’t using or consuming unmanaged objects in your apps. Thanks for any input you can give on this dilemma. Visual Basic 2005 does support "using" You may also want to take a look at the de ...Show All

• Visual C++ Application throwing a generic error.

  I'm developing a TcpServer in C++/CLI. I have everything coded. Now the problem is that when I want to close the connection to a client, it throws a generic error. A NullReferenceException. I am storing each client in an array. Here is the code and God bless you if you can help me fix this. The for each loop where you're processing the close command : for each (Socket ^client in clientarr) is actually looping over all 100 elements in the array, most of which are null. That's because for each doesn't know anything about the validity of the values of the array elements, it just sees 100 handles that you've allocated, so then it blows up when you access the RemoteEndPoint property. I found that adding a check for null fixes the code: ...Show All

• Visual Basic enabling controls on a form

  I have a form with a split container with 2 panels each holding 20 text boxes. I've tried using a for each statement with a if GetType is text box then enable = true etc... to enable these text boxes and when that didn't work I tested this : mol4.Enabled = True mol5.Enabled = True Where mol4 and mol5 are two different tb's. It didn't enable them. I've never run into this problem before. Any thoughts The state of the container control will override the state of it's children (i.e. if your panel is disabled then all textboxes in the panel will be disabled, regardless of the individual textbox's enabled flag state). So, rather than enabling/disabling 20 individual textboxes, just set the pan ...Show All
