• Windows Forms shrinking menu width when rendermode = system

  If you set the rendermode for a menu to anything but system you get the blue vertical strip on the left side running from the top to the bottom. If you set the rendermode to system, it disappears but you still have the entire width where the strip was on the menu. How do you get rid of this margin I don't want the strip but without it it makes the menu too wide and ugly. I see no obvious way to remove this. Go with the flow and try to find some images to fill up this space. You can find a bunch of pre-made ones in a .zip archive in the Common7\VS2005ImageLibrary subfolder of the installation directory. ...Show All

• .NET Development Detecting a router's external IP

  Hello everybody, I'm just getting started in the realm of networking w/ the .NET framework. I'm coding my app in C#, it's just a simple command line server that will listen for commands from an external client. Right now, I'm just trying to get the server, when started, to print out the local machine's IP. However, I want it to print out the address as seen by computers not on my network. So, instead of 192.168.1.XXX, I want it to give me what a website like http://whatismyipaddress.com/ would return. Thanks in advance!

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Issue with XNA Tutorial and scrolling backgrounds

  Greetings, I followed the second XNA tutorial, and got to creating a scrolling background for the space ship program. My problem is that as soon as I added the code from the tutorial for the scrolling background, the space ship became somewhat transparent, meaning that I am not seeing it like a solid rather a sum total of spheres and other geometries. For example, I can now see the 4 spheres on the surface of the ship in their entirety, and also the scrolling background behind it. Can someone help me out here Thanks! http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/16ed4c9-d98b-ff53-8f5c-ab2e6a4d5daf.aspx This is referenced in the first 3D tutorial in the XNA Getting Started Tutorial. ...Show All

• Visual C# Active scripting and webservices

  Hi all, I've been tasked with writing a c# application and finding a way to execute a script via a webservice using active scripting! i.e. we currently have script files (using javascript) that call custom functions found in a COM object. What we're looking to do is to do the same thing but instead of using a COM object, we'd like to use a WebService. Is this at all possible I suppose since everything in it's basic form is an object that it could be...but then I could be wrong! Any information, or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

• Software Development for Windows Vista Using a Workflow by a Windows and a Web Application at the same time

  Hi Everybody, I just saw many Web Casts about WWF and I'm wondering is it possible to start the first activity of a Workflow by a Windows Application then doing the second Activity by a Web Application. I think it is not possible in the case where both Windows and Web applications must share the Same Workflow instance. Mybe there is a possibility to do that by using a Web Service by instantiating the Workflow on it then pass the reference of the Workfow by a Web Method. Thanks For Help. Hi, it's me again !!

  Hi! Do I need to at any time learn DirectX when working with the XNA Framework In other words does the XNA Framework provide everything that DirectX provides, but without writing a single line of DirectX code Thanks, O. Thanks for the fast reply. I think I'm happy about the answers. I'm very interested in the XNA and want to try it out, but I haven't written a single line of C# code. So I got my first C# book today. Something to read during Christmas. ;) After that I'll see if the hype around XNA is real, at least for me. At the minimum I've learned something of a new language for me. O. ...Show All

• SQL Server SMO Weirdness on SQLExpress box

  so i created a SMO console app (.exe) that backs up all user databases. we scheduled it via windows scheduler and life was good... THEN we had to migrate our sqlexpress instance to a different server and this ofcourse included migrating the SMO scripts I had written. The scheduled task keeps failing and the eventlog is recording events in the appLog. I noticed that in the GAC the SMO assemblies are present but i dont see the ProgFiles\sql server\90\sdk\assemblies directory where I thought the dll's physically resided at. Also I installed vb2005 express edtiion on the box and it does not "see" the SMO libraries via an add reference operation. The other intesting thing is this new box has the RTM of Mgmt.
