• Visual Studio Tools for Office Graying out CustomUI

  Hi, When an Excel sheet is in Edit mode Some RibbonUI's are grayed out. I want the same behavior for my CustomUI. How can I detect that the sheet is in Edit Mode . Hi Mike, Thats the point, I am looking for specific checking. I am looking for the event when an user enters the formula bar or enters an Excel cell. This is what I mean by Edit mode: The moment an user enters the formula bar, the standard ribbonX buttons turned gray and at the bottom of the excel document the text "Ready" turns to "Edit" or "Enter". So I am looking for that Event. with regard Vincent ...Show All

• Windows Forms folderBrowserDialog and triggering events

  Hi, I'm using the folderBrowserDialog to select a directory. Having chosen your directory, clicking 'ok', and having control return to the form, I would like a text box on the form to be updated to display the selected directory. How can I trigger an event having clicked 'ok' on the folderBrowseDialog. Currently, if I want to display the selected directory, I have to press another button to get the text field to update.

• Windows Forms C++ Drag and Drop

  I know there have been lots of questions asked about this, but I can't see any that answer my particular one. I have pictureboxes that I want to be able to move round a panel freely - they contain bmps. I have implemented the dragdrop events of the panel like so: private: System::Void pnlDragDrop_DragDrop(System::Object^ sender, System::Windows::Forms::DragEventArgs^ e) { PictureBox^ picPole = safe_cast <PictureBox^> (sender); picPole->SetBounds(posx, posy, picPole->Width, picPole->Height); } private: System::Void pnlDragDrop_DragEnter(System::Object^ sender, System::Windows::Forms::DragEventArgs^ e) { e->Effect = DragDropEffects::Move; } private: System::Void pnlDragDrop_DragOver(System::Object^ sender, System: ...Show All

• Windows Forms Key event management in custom windows form designer

  I've been working for some months in a proyect where we have developed a custom form designer for .net 1.1 Now we want to add suport for custom actions triggered by key hits but we haven't be able to catch some keys like the direction keys (to add fine grain control movement by example). How can we do that Hi, I think that you have to get a hold of the MenuCommandService and install your own MenuCommands.KeyMoveXXX/KeyNudgeXXX command. You should probably remove any existing command first. Martin ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums Somehow deriving an AddPolygon() from a Live Search Collection

  Dear Group, I've recently begun to experiment with Virtual Earth. I do a fair amount of JavaScript programming in my real job; so I created a rudimentary script to allow me to plot a polygon representing a political district in my city. I'm an alderman running for re-election and I got interested in Virtual Earth as a means to make an on-line map of aldermanic districts. Anyway, here is my rudimentary page: http://www.swerbach.com/Neenah3rd/NeenahAldermanicDistricts1and3.htm Summary of functions: Start: Start recording mouse click positions as LatLong pairs Stop: Stop recording mouse clicks Del Last Line: Remove last polyline drawn on the map Display: Show recorded mouse clicks in new window So click the 'Start' button an ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro Data not up to date in newly created private data sessions.

  We are witnessing data not refreshing across users and data sessions until program shutdown/restart. One user adds records, then runs reports; another user then runs the same report and does not get the latest data the first user added - even minutes or hours after the addition. This is a large system (163,000 lines of .prg code, plus 68,000 more in class and screen methods), originally written in FoxPro 2.5 and 2.6, ported to VFP 8.0 with minimal code changes, except the reporting. The vast majority of the system is still @ ... SAY ... GET / READ MODAL..., etc. Also, about 100 of the most commonly used tables are opened at startup and remain open until shutdown. The reports, however are called from VFP forms, each instantiated from a (si ...Show All

• .NET Development Oracle stored procedure design time support

  VS 2005 appears to lack Oracle stored procedure design time support. Dragging from the Server Explorer to a dataset triggers the message "The dropped database objects cannot be added to the dataset". Likewise, the TableAdapter configuration wizard disables the stored procedure options and only allows the "Use SQL statements" option. I'm looking for a confirmation that MS made a decision to leave out Oracle stored proc support or a work around that produces the same result. -Noel hi I have the same problem, I have spent two days finding information about this from Microsoft and I cannot get it ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Mid-tone - image processing

  Hi! Does anybody know how to do the mid-tone image adjustment It's in Microsoft Office Picture Manager... Please! Help me! Presumably, your question is: "how do I process an image/picture using VBExpress I would like to know how to adjust the mid-tones similar to what Office Picture manager does". I think your best bet would be to find the algorithms first, then come here when you need help implementing them in your image open/save/close code.
