• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums Running a macro if new mail if from a specific address

  Hello, I'm currently trying to write a macro that is run when new mail is received in Outlook 2002 (possibly XP not sure though) I would like the macro to check if the new email is from a specific address (in this case sales@falcontrunking.co.uk ), delete the email, and display a message saying "There is a new message in the Sales Inbox". I know how to run a macro when a new message is received and I know how to show a message box saying "There is a new message in the Sales Inbox" but I don't know how to check if the new message has been received from a specific address. Can anyone help me This should do what you're looking for. You may need to adapt it slightly to fit your ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Getting the Next Calendar appointment start time using state and notifications broker

  Hi, I want to get the next appointment start time usring the SN Broker. Ex. DWORD dwValue = 0; HRESULT hr; hr = RegistryGetDWORD(CALENDARNEXTAPPOINTMENTSTART_ROOT, CALENDARNEXTAPPOINTMENTSTART_PATH, CALENDARNEXTAPPOINTMENTSTART_VALUE, &dwValue); However, when I look at HKLM, System Appointments Next Start time, it is stored as a 64 bit value ( I believe a FILETIME value). How is it possible to get this value using the SN Broker and convert it back to a Time format thanks. Just wanted to add that since this is a 64 bit value, you need to use RegCreateKey ReqQueryValueEx - into __time64_t value and then in case of MFC - new C ...Show All

• Windows Forms CellValidated event not firing

  I have a DataGridView on my form. I have wired both the CellValidating and CellValidated events. In the CellValidated event I perform some numeric validations and Cancel if the data entry is incorrect. In the CellValidated event, I call methods to update some textboxes on the form that contain numeric values (i.e. Order Total). My problem is that I've modified the form (not the DataGridView) and now when it runs the CellValidating event gets fired but the CellValidated event does not. I can go back to a prior version in source control and get the correct behavior. Any ideas why this would start happening Hi, Are you using VB If so, it happened to me a few times that the "Handles" clause at th ...Show All

• Windows Forms How: Cross Thread Operations

  Hello everybody. What is the way of accessing something from another thread.... For example, I create an instance of a form and show it... Then I create a new thread and start a method in it....

Could you point me some directions about this .... thank you in advance! if you close the previously shown form that initialized/instantiated the thread you are running then really you are closing your application. you can iterate through the Application.OpenForms collection which gives you the collection of forms that are open if this helps ...Show All

• SQL Server Slow Changing Dimension - A question

  Greetings SQL friends, I am using the Ralph Kimball approach of having DIM_Effective_date, DIM_Expirey_date and Current_Flag. When I use the SCD transformation it works very well for populating the Effective and Expiry dates but how do I make it insert an 'O' for the Current Flag (for expired records) and a 'C' for non expired dimension records Your advice would be much appreciated. Greetings friends,   I have solved the problem. The solution is as follows: The following components are all generated once the SCD wizard is complete (I did not add further components) The derived column component which generates the creation date time stamp for NEW OUTPUTS needs to be ...Show All

• Visual Basic VB App crashing when run directly from IE

  Hello, I have just written my first VB application so there is lots I don't know. I have tested it on a number of PCs and it works fine. I have uploaded the application to some webspace for others to download. My problem is that when the IE prompt "Do you want to run or save this program" is shown if I choose "run" the program just crashes. If the program is saved to a folder and then run it seems to work fine.

• .NET Development How do I change my forms dataset using vb.net and SQL Express and drag-n-drop dataset wizards?

    Hi all, I've been chasing down the multiple datasource issue. Where the ide was so unstable that creating a different datassource for each query was safer than attempting to modify an existing one. i.e. the datasource and all its work was being corrupted. ----- I now have a form which was created using the drag-n-drop dataset wizards. In my project I have a form which has a DatagridView based upon a dataSource /Dataset. I also have a Combo box based upon a completely different datasource/Dataset. I would like to copy the form into a new project and base the controls upon a completely new/different datasource/dataset which is a single datasource/dataset that has all my tables and underlying quer ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. What are all the scrip codes for XNA?

  I know almost all game develpement programs use scrip codes and I would reall like it is someone would tell me some I would like to know them all Also whats the code to make cheat codes The problem with your question is that XNA has no specific script codes. Each developer that makes a game using the XNA Framework will decide for themselves if they want to create their own scripting system for their game and they will either use an existing system (of which there are many) or implement their own. Also, there is no specific code to make cheat codes. Technically, I guess you would say that C# is the code to make cheat codes in XNA. If a developer wants to add cheat codes to his game (usually done for test ...Show All
