• Windows Forms Shell Extension Context Menu in C# strange error.

  Hi, i'm writing a shell extension in c# that will add two menu's to the right-click menu of explorer. Here is the problem. If i select one file and use the standard OPEN context menu all is well, but if i select two or more files and use the standard OPEN context menu it seems to want to run through the code for MY created menu. Here is the code in question: int IContextMenu.QueryContextMenu(uint hmenu,uint iMenu, int idCmdFirst,int idCmdLast,uint uFlags) { // The first id to use (should be 1) int id = 1; if ((uFlags & 0xf) == 0 || (uFlags & (uint)CMF.CMF_EXPLORE) != 0) { // Create a new Menu Item to add to the context menu MENUITEMINFO mii = new MENUITEMINFO(); mii.cbSize = 48; mii.fMas ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Absolute and relative mouse movement

  Usually when dealing with mouse input you want the data from the mouse in two forms, one is absolute that you might use to draw a cursor or know which part of the window/screen a user has clicked on, and the other is relative where you are only interested in how much the mouse has moved. Currently, the MouseState only seems to report the mouse movement in the absolute form. This means anyone using the mouse to control, for example, a first person camera would find their movement limited by the size of their window/screen. I have tried playing around with the Mouse.IsCaptured property but it doesn't seem to make much difference, quite possibly because I don't know how to use it. Am I correct in thinking that getting relative mouse input dat ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Change a window position

  I am a beginner and I was wondering how I could make a form/window look like its sliding accross the screen. I have set up the timer and that, I just need something like: Me.location = (x + 1, (middle of screen)) Thanks Nathan "make a form/window look like its sliding accross the screen" "now how do I get it to move one pixel or many pixels to the right (or left" Answer: Me.Location = New Point(Me.Location.X() + 35, (Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds.Height - Me.Height) \ 2) Yeah, Right We obviously wasted our time.  How about not wasting it any further in future ...Show All

• Windows Forms Progress Bar - ListBox

  Yeah, I fugured that out when I translated it into C++...I had noticed that it didn't actually add the event handler.  Anyway, there is only one more problem, the cpu usage isn't very acurate compared to that of the Task Managers. I have a label that I use to show the % of the CPU Usage using your method, but It ALWAYS either stays at 0% or 100% while the progress bar jumps around like crazy.... This is what I am using to show the label: this ->label1->Text = "CPU Usage: " + Convert::ToString(( int )CPU->NextValue()) + "%" ; I have tried using other processor timers but nothing seems to make a difference.  The one you provided works like a charm on the progressbar, but then again the label doe ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Missing references..

  Good afternoon, I have a .sln with three projects, two are C# and one is VB. I have migrated the code from VSS and converted from .NET 1.1 & VS2003 to .NET 2.0 & VS2005 with Team Foundation. I open the .sln and all three projects seem to load without issue, however my references for the VB project are missing and I'm unable to add them. Has anyone run into this issue and found a resolution Thank you! I can build the .sln without issue using VS2003 and .NET 1.1 - when I open the .sln using VS2005 and attempt to build it the needed projects load, however the references for one project are not present. I can right-click on the project and go through the 'Add Reference' procedure, ...Show All

• SQL Server Setting up Client PC to access remote SQL Server

  Hi, I am a VB6 programmer and I'm really new to SQL Express, I have always used ACCESS because it was so easy to deploy. I've now written a VB6 program which uses SQL Express and I want to know how to deploy it. Basically my PC will host the SQL database as it has SQL Express loaded onto it. I now want to install my EXE onto other Client's PC and have them read/write to the database on my machine. Besides the EXE program, what software do I need to load onto the Client's PC so they can access my SQLExpress database... (eg: Net Framework, SQLExpress, etc). Also, if my machine is called ABC123, in my connectionstring do I just put in ABC123\sqlexpress as the datasource.. . Will this be enough for the other PCs to connect to mine ...Show All
