• SharePoint Products and Technologies Create a 'custom' List with Pages

  Hi, I need to create a 'custom' List that will contain Pages (or articles if you want). I can't use the default Page list that's there. How can I go about doing this I need this because I have to have a List with articles that aren't shown on the site as other 'normal' articles. Thanks!

Not in  /mycustom pages folder regards, Joost ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Serializerable Problem

  Hi, I have a Hashtable and user can add anything to it. Then I will create a MessageHeader which contain the Hashtable. The MessageHeader will pass from client side to server side then it will pass it from server side to client side. When the MessageHeader is passed back it will throw exception: Type 'NCS.IConnect.Security.ExtendedMembershipUser' with data contract name 'ExtendedMembershipUser:http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/NCS.IConnect.Security' is not expected. Add any types not known statically to the list of known types - for example, by using the KnownTypeAttribute attribute or by adding them to the list of known types passed to DataContractSerializer. Because I don't know user will add what data to Hashtable.How to resolve ...Show All

• Visual Studio Code Window Current Member

  Hi, is it somehow possible to get notified when the type or member at the current caret position changes (Same information is displayed at the top of the code window - Types and Members). First I tried different things to get notified about changes of the current caret position (IVsTextLinesEvents) but that doesn't do the job. If I would be notified about caret changes I could use CodeElements to get the current symbol - so this would do the job as well. Thanks in advance, Thomas Hotz We do not have any way to do this. The best you can do is to pass the caret position to the code model, but this will not work in all cases since the code model will not return information that is within a method ...Show All

• SQL Server Capturing Previous Value

  When updating the value of a field in a table, is it possible to capture -- either for insertion in another table or as a variable -- the previous value of the field Thus, if a field value is 'Value1' and a user updates it to 'Value2' is there some way to hold 'Value1' as a variable Lynn Trapp Adamus Turner wrote: Hi Lynn, In good db design, there should be a new record inserted, not continual updates to existing records and you track the history through timestamps. However, if you want to just capture the previous existing value, it would be more practical and efficient to add a field called oldMyField and record the old value in your existing table instead of creating an entirely ne ...Show All

• Windows Forms WebBrowser instead of a FileView?

  Has anyone got any links to info on using a webBrowser control as a fileview control. If you're not sure what I mean then spawn a webbrowser control and .Navigate("C:\"). It is the same control used in Explorer/Internet Explorer right I mean it browses files perfectly. It just doesn't seem to be to easy to find the selected files... So if I messed around with WndProc would I be able to extend it It would surely be easier than reinventing the wheel! Oooh. Wait a minute. I see it creates a listview when you browse files. Didn't think of that. ...Show All

• SQL Server permissions granted to an application intead of a user

  I have an application that talks to an access db located on a 2000 server. I would like grant permissions to the application instead of a specific user. Any help would be great... Answer is the same - Windows security works by assigning permissions to users - permissions cannot be assigned to applications. You should read the post that Raul pointed out. You can attempt to use application roles or have the application connect with specific credentials to the database, but a smart user can reverse-engineer the application and figure out how to connect directly to the database, hence there is no security guarantee of the type you seek.

• SQL Server Rename file using File System Task Editor

  Could someone please instruct me on how to use the File System Task Editor to rename a file I place control on control flow tab, change the operation to rename, from there I am not sure what to do. Often you need to use a resource that does not yet exist, be that a file or table. Generally you do need to create the object to help develop the package, but after that you can set the DelayValidation property to prevent errors at run-time. This means that the task does not validate until immediatly prior to executing, rather than at the begining of the overall package execution as well. It is of course assumed that by the time validation does take place any dependencies do then exist. ...Show All

• Visual C# How do I prevent a screen saver for closing when pressing CTRL+ALT+DELETE?

  I have made a C# screen saver which authenticates user name and password with a LDAP server before closing. It works fine except when some one is pressing CTRL+ALT+DELETE, then the screensaver closes without warning. It only happens when my application is started by Windows as a screen saver. When the screen saver is started manually, the CTRL+ALT+DELETE press does not affect the screen saver. In both situations I can’t see the screen saver right after pressing CTRL+ALT+DELETE, because of the “Windows Security” window. But after pressing ESC, the screen saver is only there if it was started manually. How do I prevent the screen saver for closing by CTRL+ALT+DELETE when it is started by Windows ...Show All

• Visual C# Changing Interval of Timer while Enabled?...

  Hello, I have a Timer Event that has a dynamic interval. For example I might have it set to go off every hour for 12 hours then change to every 3 hours after that or so on. If I change the Timer.Interval Value while it is Enabled do I have to disable and reenable it for the interval to take effect or can I expect it to notice the change by itself Thanks, Quilnux You didn't specify which type of timer you were using. .NET has 3 different versions. Assuming you are talking about System.Windows.Forms.Timer then it will automatically reset itself when you change the interval. You don't have to do anything extra.

• Visual Studio Remote debugging with VS2005

  Hi I have a problem with a web service of mine, which crashes the IIS on our customers production PC (a restart of IIS is necessary). I would like to take my laptop (with VS2005 and source code on it) to my customer and make some remote debugging to figure out, what causes this problem (I've never heard before, that an application can crash the IIS). Could anyone point me to page, describing how remote debugging is done in VS2005. The production PC does not have VS2005 installed of course /Michael Hi Dave Thanks for your reply.

• .NET Development Out of memory exception (c#, .net 2003, large images)

  Hi, I am developing an application (c#, .Net 2003, Framework 1.1) that deals with large images. The application captures multiple image frames and stitch them up into a large hige-res image. We are looking at 50+ frames and sometimes more than 100 frames of 1024x768 color images. I am also using double buffers for edit purposes. To get an idea of what this application does: beyond the image acquisition and stitching, it is very similar to Paint.Net ( http://www.getpaint.net/index2.html ) in providing tools to draw on top of the image. The program is hitting out of memory exceptions -- sometimes even with smaller images. Documentation on LOH seems to explain this observation well, especially with memory fragmentation a likely cause of ...Show All
