• Visual Studio Tools for Office Error when opening VSTO sample project

  I just installed Visual Studio Team Edition for Software Developers (with VSTO) and I'm trying to open a sample project I downloaded from Microsoft. When I open the .sln I get this error: Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 SP1 or newer is not installed on this computer. You must install a version of Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 that supports Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Tools for the Microsoft Office System projects. The problem is that I do have Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 installed. It's SP2, which is what is recommended. It's configured and open. How can I convince VSTO that I really do have Outlook 2003 SP2 installed Thanks! -Jeremy I just realized why you asked that. Our client ...Show All

• .NET Development WS-I18N, Web Services Internationalization

  Has anyone done any work implementing the WS-I18N header enhancements with an ASP.NET Web Service, or similar I did actually implemented it using WSE for ASP.Net, 2.0 bellow are some code snippets that I hope help. Some notes: I just implemented the locale element, you could take the rest from Pablo's article. The output filter grabs the culture from the UI Thread and puts this on the header, the service input filter sets the requested culture in the servies main thread. doing this, you don't have to worry about setting the header every single time you call the service. I derived the InternationalHeader class from SOAP header so you can use it explicitly as a SoapHeader attribute if you don't want to use WSE (you will nee ...Show All

• SQL Server Performance problem: 2000 vs. 2005

  I copied a 2000 database onto 2005 on another box. Running the exact same SELECT query, with 7 tables joined, is running in less than 2 minutes on 2000 and almost 3 hours on 2005. The 2005 box is "bigger and better". I've compared the sp_configure output. There are differences in max worker threads, cost threshold for parallelism, and priority boost. I don't think any one of these is significant. I checked the server properties and the database properties and, again, I did not see what I would consider any significant differences. The 2005 instance has 4GB memory, as opposed to 2GB, but not using that much. In fact, the Total Server Memory (KB) for the instance indicates around 1,230,000 for some reason.

• Windows Forms Why is DataGridView so slow?

  I created a databound DataGrid, and then researched DataGridView to find it would fit my needs better. I have a DataGridViewCheckBoxColumn as my first column in my DataGridView then set its datasource to a DataSet. Sometimes the DataSet may contain a table with over 1000 rows. The user has a button that will select all checkboxes in the DataGridView. It takes about 5 minutes for my foreach loop to complete this task with the DataGridView. With the DataGrid, it was milli-seconds. What is going on Any suggestions Here is some of the code.
