• Visual Studio Express Editions Clng or + or? addition problems.

  Hi, just came over a problem. I have 2 text boxes and want one of them to add the other text box. Penger.Tag = Penger.Tag + Skudd.Text That only resulted in adding the numbers at the end of the other numbers. So, im wondering is the right way to do it like this Penger.Tag = CLng(Skudd.Text) + CLng(Penger.Tag) Or is there a other way thats more safe Think if figured out a way to calculate it. Dim verdi1 As Double = Penger.Tag Dim verdi2 As Double = Skudd.Text Dim summ As Double = 0 summ = verdi1 + verdi2 But, for every calculation I want to have, I have to make new variables verdi1, verdi2, verdi3 or Like if I have another button with different text boxes and such, then I would have to call it a ll verdi3 and verdi4. ...Show All

• .NET Development ReflectionOnlyLoadFrom in another AppDomain

  Is there a technique for loading an Assembly into a new AppDomain as a ReflectionOnlyLoadFrom I'm writing a utility to compare the types in assemblies. If the two nominated assemblies are in different paths but share the same identity information (i.e. Name, Version, Culture etc) I get an Exception on the second Assembly.ReflectionOnlyLoadFrom() call, stating an API Restriction on loading the same assembly identities from different paths (and fair enough!). This led me to investigate loading the second assembly into a new AppDomain, to avoid the API restriction. But, the new AppDomain only has the .Load() method, no LoadFrom() or ReflectionOnlyLoadFrom(). Is there a technique for this Cheers. Ed ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. How to render alpha blended textures on a Model?

  I have a 3D model with a texture applied that contains alpha information to make parts of it transparent. How do I go about rendering the model with the transparency I've figured out how to render the entire model translucent but not how to make a specific material on the model translucent in accordance with the alpha values of the texture used by the specific material. Is there a way to do this It appears to be rendering alpha now somewhat although I'm getting really strange effects.  For example, some of the other models behind the translucent one appear while others do not.  Maybe there is something messed up with my depth buffer. Thanks for the help. :) ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Report with item description

  I need a report which shows the scenario descriptions along with the other data. The description field turns out to not be "reportable" in the field definitions. How do I do this The work item descriptions are, as you have discovered, not reportable items. This is because they can be quite large. As the work item is edited it can become pages. Consider using the Title in your report instead and possibly having a "drill through" to the longer description. As an example of a report with the full work item linked see the "Bugs Found Without Corresponding Tests" report. The work item data can be accessed via: http://<Your Report Server>:8080/WorkItemTracking/Workitem.asp ...Show All
