• Windows Forms Application.Run()

  Is Application.Run() equivalent to the following code snippet Application.Run runs an instance of the application/class.

• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums Compatibility Issue Excel 2000 and Excel 2003

  I wrote a macros for a customer in Excel 2003. He didn't tell me he used Excel 2000 until after the project and like an idiot I forgot to ask. The macros will not run on his version of Excel 2000. A compile error shows up. So he got a version of Excel 2003 and the macros will still not work for him. I have tested this macros on other machines using 2003 and they all work correctly for me. I live in the US and the customer lives in the UK. When he runs the macros it immediately goes into the debugging window and highlights a bit of code that simply references the path of the existing folder to a variable. The exact code is: DestFolder = ThisWorkbook.Path & "\" There is a compile error with a message that the data fold ...Show All

• .NET Development .NET Directory Services classes - Bug?

  I am currently using Visual Studio 2005 Pro and am trying to make use of some of the Directory Services classes. In particular, the ResultPropertyCollection from a SearchResult is meant to expose the item property which can then be passed a string key to return the value of that key. However, this property is not exposed ! One of the samples provided Basic Directory Search Technology Sample has the following code snippet: foreach (SearchResult result in results) { Console.WriteLine("Path:\t\t" + result.Path); Console.WriteLine("Display Name:\t" + result.Properties["displayName"]); Console.WriteLine("Name:\t\t" + ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Team Suite and Visual Source Safe

  Hi, I have Visual Studio 2005 Team Suite and I want to use it with Visual Source Safe 2005 but it seems that VSS won't integrate int VSTS source control menu like it does on the progessional version of VS2005. Why Vlad It is possible to integrate VSS for source control by selecting it in Team Suite - Tools - Options - Source Control - Current Source Control Plugin. When you do so, you will be missing out on many features like integration of source control with other TFS services of Workitem Tracking, Reports etc. To use these it is necessary to use Team Foundation Version Control (TFVC). You can migrate your source control from VSS to TFVC using a utility provided with TFS. ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Umm now what?

  I have downloaded all of the programs and It has no errors. I've reseted my computer alot and I can't find where to launch it.Help me please I'll assume you downloaded the March CTP of XNA Build. If so: 1. On the start menu, there should be a Microsoft XNA Build System CTP entry 2. If you open VS, there should be a XNA Build Project in the New Project dialog I'm not sure what your intent is but to be clear, these bits are totally different than the XNA Game Studio Express product that was announced this week (its first beta won't be available until Aug 30). The XNA Build CTP bits are designed for professional game studios, so likely won't be of much interest to hobbyists. Amy ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Restricting which rows are editable in a NETCF textbox

  I've made a custom textbox with a certain background. In order to the textbox higher than normal I set the property multiline to true. The row above and below are showed since the textbox is higher than normal. But I only want the users to be able to edit the middle row. Also the cursor is positioned on the top row. I don't want the users to be able to move it away from the middle row. How do I accomplish this. /Lars This cannot be done with the TextBox control easily. You will need to play some tricks with rendering to make it appear that there is only one control, but that the top and bottom lines are actually Label controls, or something like that. I can't really provide details unless I had much mo ...Show All

• SQL Server FTP Connection Manager: Set FTP password using a variable

  Hi, I want to setup an FTP task that is portable in the sense that all it's connection parameters are stored in variables. I can create expressions for properties ServerName and ServerUserName but not the ServerUserpassword.  Is there an property that I missed, there seems to be properties for everything else except the key piece of info, the password.
