• .NET Development UDP Socket.Receive() on more than one port

  I have to connect to a multicast group that sends out several thousand data feeds, each on it's own port. I want to create one instance of a UDP Socket on a dedicated thread, then use blocking Receive() to catch the datagrams. My problem is that it seems that Socket.Receive can only listen to one port at a time. I don't want to call BeginReceive for each port, because I don't want to use the threadpool. Any ideas Socket.ReceiveFrom(/*........*/); It's Specifically for Connectionless (UDP) Sockets... And You can Specify from Which End Point you have to receive... You can call this by specifying different end points on the same object of UDP socket object. Best Regards, Rizwan ...Show All

• Visual Basic "TrollKit 1.0" - Not quite "Patterns & Practice" Material

  I am sure the "Patterns & Practice" team @ MS are squirming about this InteropForms Toolkit 1.0. Honestly, I am a little disappointed in the emergence of this toolkit. Ideally MS should’ve created a migration path process and set of patterns to allow the developer to understand the inners-workings of this Frankenstein type applications. Instead MS decided to give the developer community what I would call a “TrollKit”. What happened to teaching people how to fish, instead of providing them with fishes Please do not use this “Trollkit”, instead take the route of visual inheritance & COM Interop, create your own set of class libraries, add WinForms to these class libraries, and you will be able to do anything with t ...Show All

• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums What is the code for closing out an excel file while in the browser?

  I am using Excel 2003, FrontPage 2003 and internet explorer. I can access the excel file from my browser but can not close the excel file with a command button while the file is working from the browser. If I am working from the excel program itself, the button works but not from the browser. The range code is to get back to the top before quitting and I do not want any changes to the file to be saved. As you can tell I’m in the learning mode. Thanks.

  I want to create a tredictional Program file.exe that installs under programs. like we used to do in vb6 I have a module app I want to call from scheduled tasks to run at given times I have only figured out how to do the one click deployment. well firstly, in order to run your .NET developed application, the computer that will be running the application requires the .NET Framework (the correct version) otherwise the app will not run, this is why ClickOnce and the full setup installer is recommended for distributing and installing apps as it will do this for you. Next up, you simply create the task in Windows and point to the exe file. The exe file, if not using the ClickOnce/setup and deplo ...Show All

• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums Personal.xls

  Whenever I open an excel file from my computer, excel opens but the file does not. The only thing showing is the personal.xls file. I'm aware that I can hide this file if wanted, but that does not fix my problem. Whenever I try to open an excel attachment from lotus notes, I get the error "unable to locate program". Once I have excel open, I can go to file open and then open up a file, but it will not do it from double clicking from my computer or whatever drive I'm looking.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. How I can quickly draw into texture with alpha? C#

  How I can quickly draw into texture with alpha From MSDN - Surface.GetGtaphics() The GetGraphics method is valid only on the following formats: Format.R5G6B5 , Format.X1R5G5B5 , Format.R8G8B8 , and Format.X8R8G8B8 . Formats that contain alpha are not supported because the Microsoft Windows Graphics Device Interface (GDI) implementations do not have a well-defined behavior on the alpha channel.

• Windows Forms DataGridView "look and feel" question

  I'm using VS 2005 to create a Windows Forms application. In one of my forms, I allow the user to enter some search criteria and click a button to search the database (SQL Server 2005). The search results are then displayed in a DataGridView control. Ideally, I would like to be able to have some control over how the columns in the grid are displayed. For example, when the grid displays the search results, it seems to pick up the column name from the typed dataset and use it for the column headers. I would like to enter my own column headers through code. Here is the current code that I use to bind my DataGridView to my typed dataset: //tie the master binding source datasource to the datatable m_SrcSystemBindingSource.DataS ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Shader states, etc? (HLSL effects not working right)

  I'd like to call upon all the shader gurus here for some help :) I've been experimenting with writing some of my own effects, meaning I'm a HLSL newbie, and have been using NVIDIA's FX Composer to do my work. After producing a cool (albeit simple) effect, I decided to try using it in my little model viewer. The problem is that the way it shows up through XNA is different than the way it shows up in FX Composer, and I can't figure out why. You can find the code to my effect here: http://www.hiranipra.com/data/help_attach/gb1_shader.txt - it's just fairly simple environment mapping-ish stuff.
