• Visual Studio page count in ReportViewer-Bar -> 1 number too little

  hello there. i render my reports in local mode in a WinApp. when the report got rendered in the reportviewer the report has three pages. in the status bar of the reportviewer i only see "1 of 2" pages. after scrolling or pressing the "next-page-button" the pagecount corrects to three. i suppose that the reportviewer adds repeated (repeat on each page) objects only one time, not three times like in this sample. is this possible is there an update for that Did they fix this in ReportViewer 2008 I have the same problem, but I see the same in 2008 too. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Where do I install Visual Sourcesafe 2005 from

  I want to migrate VSS data to VSTS. Now the VSSconvertor.exe requires Visual Sourcesafe 2005. I already have Visual Studio 2005 (team edition for Architect) and I dont know from where to get the VSS2005 plugin if there exists one, because I am getting the error "VSSConvertor requires Visual Sourcesafe 2005 or later" :( any help will be highly appreciated Dear Shivangi, Try the following : Open VStudio 2005.

• Software Development for Windows Vista CorrelationInitializer question

  Hi, I'm new to wwf, and I have the following question, In all the available application samples I browsed the CorrelationInitializer is always attributed to a method, and not to an event. Is there a reason for this The usual is something like: [ExternalDataExchange] [CorrelationParameter("nextStage")] public interface ISMConnector { [CorrelationAlias("nextStage", "e.Command")] event EventHandler<RegEventArgs> OwnerInfoSubmitted; [CorrelationInitializer()] void SMSnapshot( string nextStage); } I had originally thought of doing something more like: [CorrelationParameter("WorkflowInstanceId")] [ExternalDataExchange] public interface ICaseManagementLocalService ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. I like that... maybe with a list?

  Hi: Are there any tutorials regarding applying any effects to sprites or textures For example I want to apply 'motion blur' based on the sprites velocity vector. Do I need to write some kind of custom shader or does the XNA framework have this included Any help greatly appreciated! Regards: John Drawing 10 instances may not be anywhere near as slow as you are expecting. As long as you use a single SpriteBatch object to draw them all, only begin drawing once, then draw all the ghost images within that single begin/end block, it will be pretty quick. ...Show All

• SQL Server Hidden expression with dates?

  Hi! How to write the syntax when you try to compare the dates. In this case I try to check if the date is empty(then it's 1/1/1900) then the field should be hidden. This is what I tried but didn't succeed: =iif(Fields!ModifiedDate.Value="1/1/1900", true , false ) Jan Pieter Posthuma wrote: You can convert your string value ('1/1/1900') to a date with the CDate() function. With this you can compare the to value's with each other. Thanks for the post but unfortunately I didn't get it. The main problem is syntax - I don't know where to use Cdate() -function. I tried this: =iif(Cdate(Fields!modifiedDate).Value) > "1/1/1900" , false , true ) the compiler didn't ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Storyboard pause behavior

  I have a storyboard animation running forever and want to pause it when the element is not visible - the animation continues to run as evidenced by cpu usage. When the animation is running, cpu usage is about 22%. With storyboard sb, sb.stop stops the animation (cpu approx 0%) and returns the visual appearance of the element to the initial appearance. sb.begin(me,true) starts the animation again. When sb.pause is used, the visual appearance freezes and the cpu usage drops to 8-10%. When sb.resume is called, the visual appearance jumps ahead to some appearance proportional to the amount of time since sb.pause was issued. So, it looks like sb.pause freezes the visaul changes but does not pause the animation clock. Is this corre ...Show All

• .NET Development Strange behavior when making remote call

  I'm calling a remote server (client activated, hosted in WinForms app). A simple call without parameters (or with a simple string param) works fine. When I pass certain parameters, it crashes. Build is the remote class. This call to CreateBuildTree() works: Build prp = new Build (); prp.CreateBuildTree(); This one doesn't: Build prp = new Build (); string BuildDir = prp.GetBuildDir(); TreeNode root = new TreeNode (); root.Text = BuildDir; prp.CreateBuildTree(root, BuildDir); even when CreateBuildTree doesn't contain any code!!! public void CreateBuildTree() { } The error I get on the client side is "Server encountered an internal error.
