• Visual Studio Express Editions variable

  is it possible to make variables "be read" from form to form Just make them public members of the form. Or, highly recommended, expose them with a public property of the form. Of course, the 2nd form needs to have a reference to the form with the member. ...Show All

• Visual C++ Problem starting a executable linked with a .net library

  Hello, I am using in a C++ dll (let's call the dll MyDll) a class written in C#. For using this class, I made a VS2003 project in C++ to interface with my C# library and my C++ DLL. MyDll is loaded at the start of an executable (also written in C++) and everything works fine. The problem is that some others executables (written in C++) are also linked with MyDll (using the lib file), and these executables are crashing when starting! (a crash in nt.dll). Doing some tests, I realize that theses executables are only crashing when MyDll is linked to the C# library! When not, everything works fine! The only difference between the first executable which is working fine with MyDll and the others executables which are crashing is ...Show All

• Visual Studio Simple request for help regarding Visual Studio 2005 Service Pack 1 Beta

  I have one simple question and I cannot begin to figure out where to ask it. 1) With Visual Studio 2005, if I install the Service Pack 1 Beta, will my project and solution files be compatible with a standard installation of Visual Studio 2005 that does not have the service pack installed I ask this because this beta release has no GoLive license, it is not recommend for deployment in production scenarios, and even if you have a support contract in place with Microsoft there is no formal support before the final release of the service pack. I have never seen such a big carrot that has no dietary value. Hopefully someone can guide me to the proper place to post this question.

• Visual Studio Express Editions Command line build using VCBuild

  Hi. I have a few questions/comments about command line build with Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition. 1. I have noticed that there is no 'devenv' in the Express edition (I got used to it in the VS .NET 2003 version). The IDE executable is 'vcexpress', but it seems it has no command line build capabilities. I assume command line builds are to be done using 'vcbuild'. Am I right 2. Running 'vcexpress / ' brings me a confused explanation which is a mix up of 'vcexpress' and 'devenv' which does not exist in the Express edition. This is clearly a defected help message. 3. If I want to use 'vcbuild' for building Win32 applications (after installing the Platform SDK), I also have to change the PATH/INCLUDE/LIB directories in the %VS80COMN ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro VFP Bug... Or is it a feature?

  Hi all; In a grid's AfterRowColChange I have the following: if CertainCondition this.AllowCellSelection = .T else this.AllowCellSelection = .F. endif This is basically to implement a 'when' for the record the user is in. I have noticed that in some cases the AfterRowColChange won't fire. I have used ReadOnly (Instead of AllowCellSelection) and it works fine. Aleniko Well... you may be right, but when I move to a different ROW using the mouse - it fails. when using the keyboard - it works. A note here: It fails only when the records are different and not the same. thank you all ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Crystal Reports in express edition

  Is there any way to add the crystal report control that comes with the visual studio 2005 in the vb Express edition I have visual studio 2003 but I migrated my application because of all the good features of the DatagridView, can I make the reports in 2003 and then call them from the express application. Thanks and regards. Alfonso Calderon, Have you tried to call the Crystal Reports created in VS.NET 2003 with compiled successfully as a component I am sure you can by adding reference in your application. You can also recompile your project in VS 2005, it will upgrade automatically by the IDE. If you failed to use the Crystal Reports component, I guess that will be a product issue of the reports. In that case, please post ...Show All

• SQL Server Transfer SQL Server Objects Task: Nothing Happens

  Hello, I am trying to copy a subset of tables, stored procedures, and views from one database to another database on a named instance of SQL Server 2005. I am attempting to use the Transfer SQL Server Objects task in Integration Services. I am able to create both Source and Destination connections, and specify the objects I want to transfer. When I run the package, the task turns yellow while it's processing, then green when it completes. At this point, no objects have been transferred to my destination database. No tables, no procs, no views, nothing. No error has been generated. No information is written to an SSIS log file, other than the fact that objects are being transferred, and then the package is finished. Does this ha ...Show All
