• Visual C++ Problems while generating Browse Information

  Hi, Please let me know of your suggestions for the following isssue. I decided to generate browse information for my huge project (which takes around approx. 40 mintues to build). Project was builded successfully. After that I did some changes in few source files and again builded the code. This time while generating browse information compiler raised few issues telling that browse information could not be generated for few source files (firstly it tells us issues one by one per source files and not collectively as to for which all CPP files browse information could not be generated). I decided finally to skip generation of browse information and switched off the option from project settings. Now I expected App to just get link ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Is it possible to build library used only for the unit testing?

  Hi, I am a newbie to the team system. Currently, we are building a test system based on team test for our existing application. Since the application is quite large, we would start from a small portion of it. My question here is whether it is possible to build library used only for the unit testing For example, one of the methods is newticket(Ticket ticket). The existing application reads the xml-based queue message from the msqueue and generates the ticket object, then pass it to newticket method. But right now, I would like only generate test case for newticket. So I need a method to generate the ticket object from an xml file. I also can reuse this method to generate ticket object for cancelticket and changeticket methods. Since i ...Show All

• Windows Forms Excel in the WebBrowser control

  Hello, I am using .NET 2.0 Windows Forms. There is a form with a webbrowser control. I navigate to an Excel spreadsheet and the webbrowser control opens the spreadsheet "inline". All is good until I try to close the form. The Excel process appears in the Task Manager for sometime after I close the form, so it's not possible to clean up the Excel file that I viewed in the webbrowser -- when I try to delete the file, I get The File is Used By Another Process error. Here are my questions: Is it possible to issue a Close command to the Excel instance that is hosted in the webbrowser control Something along the lines of ExecWB that was available in the ActiveX version of the WebBrowser control. Is it possible to get the ...Show All

• Visual Basic Navigate Previous and Navigate Next missing

  I am converting from VB 2003 to VB 2005... In 2003 in the standard tool bar there were two buttons, Navigate Previous and Navigate Next that moved to where you cursor was. They are not in the Standard tool bar for 2005 and I cannot find them anywhere. They have nothing to do with bookmarks. Where are they Thanks! Bob I believe they have been replaced with an arrow drop down menu, next to the black x button in the tabbed menu item, I believe thats a replacement but could be wrong. Clicking on it will bring you a list of opened up items and simply select the item you wish to navigate to. ...Show All

• SharePoint Products and Technologies Is it possible to show a Windows User Control in Sharepoint?

  Hi, I have a website that has a control that is shown in a web page. Is it possible to add this user control in a Sharepoint page Doing it in a aspx or ascx page is easy, but then when I try in Sharepoint I get an empty control. Any help is greatly appreciated.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Saving Files

  My game is now ready for 360 Super Stardom.. but i need to save high scores to make the replay value higher. Please could someone point me in the right direction of saving files and high scores To work on Xbox, you should use the Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Storage namespace to open your file. That will give you back a System.IO.Stream, which you can write to using any of the standard .NET functionality. One easy way is to wrap a BinaryWriter object around the stream, or another would be to use the XML serializer. Both of those approaches will work on Xbox as long as you use our storage API to initially open the file. ...Show All

  Hi, I'm new to this forum but I hope I posted inthe right section. I'm kind of new to C# so please be patient with me :) I'm tring to save my path (gps coordinates from my asus a636) to a kml file as part of a bigger project.

Is this the solution If so...could you show me how to plac ...Show All
