• Smart Device Development Subject: VS2003 Controls in VS2005

  I've got some 3rd party controls that I can get into the VS2003 IDE toolbox, but I can't get them onto the VS2005 toolbox (if I do "Show All" they show as disabled in the toolbox). Is it impossible to use the VS2003 controls in VS2005 I figured there might be a way since you can use old ActiveX/COM controls in .NET, right Thanks for any help, Steve Indeed you can not as custom control model has been changed for VS 2005. But you can add reference to custom control DLL and use these controls them programmatically without designers. ...Show All

• Visual Studio The report definition for report 'xxx' has not been specified

  Hello, I have to confess that I never did anything with reporting services, reports, or whatsoever. For a rather huge database application (based on sql express) I thought it might be best to do the printing with local reports, which I planed to bind to the objects, I already used as data layer in my project. I created a simple report (just a table, with two fields), bound the report to the ReportViewer-Control, set the bindingsource-properties in form load. But the only thing I see is this error message "The report definition for report 'xxx' has not been specified" So: What *is* a report definition and how *do* I specify it Are there any infos I can get somewhere, to learn more about the whole concept Thanks, Klaus ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Draw Gradient Background - Error with Tabs

  Hi all, I'm trying to draw a gradient (linear) background on my devices. I've found some stuff using System.Drawing.Drawing2D.LinearGradientBrush but for some reason my application doesn't seem to be able to find it. I can get System.Drawing.Drawing2D but that's as far as it goes I also can't find SystemGradientColors and ControlPaint which are things I need. I'm using CF2. Any help would be much appreciated. Kind Regards, Grant. Hi Michael, Thanks so much - that worked perfect - a very nice resulting gradient. I tried to mark your post as Answer, but keeps throwing an error - will keep trying as sure others will benefit from this. Cheers, Grant. ...Show All

• Visual Studio take too much time to add an item in the class designer

  Hello, Thanks for the reponse. I have another question, why it takes so much time when i add an item in the class designer. thanks boyi I would seperate your code into a Class Library or a Web Control Library. This should jump the performance up by at least 3 or 4. Also, the web site should compile faster so debuging and testing will be more tolorable. Good luck. ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL Server 2000: Installing Report Server and DB on different machines

  Hi, i got a problem with the configuration of Report Server 2000. i got 2 servers. on server1 i got my database. on server2 i got the report server installed(not sure, error msg prompts on visiting the report server site). my questions: 1. on server 2 i only installed sql server 2000 reporting services, no sql server and no vs.net. is that ok 2. how do i tell the report server from server2 to use the database from server1 thanks in advance Space Cadet, Yes, it is okay to have this architecture. It is common to load SRS (SQL Reporting Services) on a web server (IIS) and have a dedicated database server. On the DB Server you should have the ReportServer and ReportServerTempDB databases. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office VSTO SE2005 CustomTaskPane Samples...

  I have seen a couple of examples suggesting the following code, private void ThisAddIn_Startup(object sender, System.EventArgs e) { CustomTaskPane ctp = this.CustomTaskPanes.Add(new UserControl1(), "My Caption"); ctp.Visible = true; } but something weird is happening because my "this" object doesn't have a CustomTaskPanes property and I don't seem to have visibility of the CustomTaskPane class. I have added "using Microsoft.Office.Tools" to ThisAddIn.cs and I have read that I need to add a reference to Microsoft.Office.Tools.Common2007.dll, and this seems to fix the visibility to CustomTaskPane class but not the application object. Thanks in advance. ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Forcing GraphicsDevice creation before Game.Run

  In order to incorporate Xna into an existing engine without a lot of ugly hacks, I need to force the GraphicsDevice to be initialised before the program loop starts (Game.Run). Can this be done Assuming this isn't possible (as seems likely), I'd need to ditch Game and handle device creation myself. This looks straight forward enough, except that it requires a handle to a window. This is no problem in windows, but what about on the xbox 360 Is there some sort of factory available that returns a GameWindow implementation for the platform it's running on Has anyone manually created a graphicsdevice on the 360 I never ran the Game.Update or Game.Run and I am able to use the SpriteBatch.Begin, Draw and End i ...Show All

• Visual C# Calling a .NET Assembly DLL from within a Win32 App
