• Visual Studio Team System Unable to Add New Objects

  I'm having a problem adding new objects from Solution Explorer. When I right click on Tables and select Add New Item the Categories / Templates are blank. Therefore I can't add a table. I've tried re-installing CTP4 but to no avail. Not sure what's changed as I was able to do this before. How do I fix Gert Drapers wrote: In CTP4 we do not allow you to add anything but a generic script type from Solution Explorer, you need to use Schema View if you want to add explicit types in CTP4. -GertD "DataDude" Development Manager What is the Schema View Could this be related to my problem here: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=581737&SiteID=1 ...Show All

• Windows Forms Vertical scrollbars on multi-column listbox.

  I am developing an application with Visual Studio 2005, C# and SQL which will replace an ageing application we use in our office. My application requires a listbox with multiple columns which has a vertical scrollbar only. However, when working with the form designer, the moment the listbox is switched to multi-column mode, the form designer automatically switches to a listbox with horizontal scroll bars only. I am hoping to make my application so that horizontal scrollbars are not required by fixing the width of the columns I want. The listbox will show a list of SQL databases which the user can select. The additional columns are only to show various dates when the databases were extracted/updated. The reason for a listbox is be ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Creating a custom CACHE URL log file using VB to make up for IE's flawed cache file

  hi the location of my index.dat for cache files is here: C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\index.dat but it turns out that is still not good enough. even after viewing its contents IE still does not record the complete cache link, something i have been trying to get, so far, w/o success. here is the issue: comparing the *exact* same page navigated to, between the dat file from IE and the dat file from FF (by comparison), re: the salient cache link i have been trying to get at with IE for the last three days, IE records this: Quote: 46/njk/en-us/RCC/Getinfo.htm ...Show All

• Gadgets Developing in a directory

  Hello, I read that you can develop a gadget from a xxx.gadget directory instead of rezipping on every change. How does this work I can't get the directory recognized as anything but a directory. Thanks, Ty Install a 3rd party Gadget and look in "C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Sidebar\Gadgets\" You'll see there's a directory "<Gadgetname>.gadget". Simply create your own folder in this area and develop directly in it. If the Gadget doesn't show up in the Add Gadget dialogue, there's a problem in the gadget.xml file. ...Show All

• Windows Forms Keeping main GUI updated while showing FileDialog

  I'm developing an application that displays real-time data on the main window. I need to show a FileDialog whilst this is going on, and when I do this the real-time updates are freezing, as a result of the modality of the FileDialog. How can I continue to update the main window whilst I show the FileDialog In fact, how can I get the real-time display to update when I display any modal window If it sounds like I'm approaching the problem badly, I would appreciate any recommendations in direction. Confused, Michael Its not the FileDialog control that is causing the problems. Whatever is firing the events to display the time change is not using the GUI thread to do the window's updates.

• Visual C++ console application entry point for al option main

  I have another post concerning how to embed an xml file in the assembly. But this question is deeper within. Thought a new post is warranted.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) FaultException<>, FaultReason, and FaultReasonText usage question

  I'm trying to figure out the simplest way to provide our own [localized] custom SOAP fault across the service boundary. I have this working using the generic FaultException class and our own Fault class. I would like to leverage the FaultReason and set this to the localized, user-friendly message - as opposed to the original exception message. My problem is I'm not sure the best approach for doing this when throwing our FaultException<MyFault>. I'm a little confused on why the FaultReason has a Translations property. Is it expected that I would load up all available translations when the service starts and create FaultReasonText objects - one for each available culture I must be missing something unless ALL localized FaultReason ...Show All

• SQL Server XML data source to Report Model (Dec CTP SQL 2005 SP2)

  Hi, I've used the Dec CTP of SQL 2005 SP2 to create a Report Server Project. In this project, I can create an XML datasource and successfully use that datasource in a report published on Sharepoint using the new Sharepoint AddIn. I've also used Dec CTP of SQL 2005 SP2 to create a Report Model Project. In this project I can create SQL Data Sources, DataSource Views andReport Models which I deploy to sharepoint and create a report builder based report from. What I can't do is create an XML based datasource in a Report Model Project. Also, if I create one solution containing both types of project, the Report Model Project Data Source Wizard suggests I can create a data source based on an existing data source in my solution .

• Visual Studio Team System Unlike Mercury LoadRunner , Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 does NOT handle parameters properly

  I first ran Load runner and got the parameters to populate the 'Form Post Parameters' in Visual studio ! I shouldn’t have had to do that. After substituting with following values in the ‘Form post parameters’, the corresponding request in the web test failed. Kindly advice. The very reason values were used, as opposed to hidden fields, wa because of your response to an earlier query on 28 Jul 2006, 7:20 PM UTC I did a trial by using the value $HIDDEN1.__VIEWSTATE for "__VIEWSTATE", instead of Viewstate. After executing the recorded test case, the request failed with the message Context parameter not found. ...Show All
