• Windows Forms ListBox question

  Hi to all! I have a question about ListBox control. I would like to add some items on a ListBox which are objets (for example type of MyOwnObject) and are not strings! When I add my objects to the ListBox (myListBox.Items.Add(myOwnObject)) of corse nothing displays on the ListBox. I would actually like to display only some properties of my objects (for example myOwnObject.Name + myOwnObject.Version + myOwnObject.LastUpdated). I don't know how to do it. The fact is I want to have the whole objects in myListBox.Items because of the binding (raising events) not only strings. Thanx for any advice, Ziga Hi fddsfsdf, A common question, the ListBox ObjectCollection is confusing. When  ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Error 403 when browsing to Service.svc file

  I am trying to run one of the wcf samples. I am deploying the server to IIS 6 and keep getting Http Error 403 Forbidden when I try to browse to the service.svc file. The directory and files appear to have the right permissions set. I added a Default.aspx page to the same directory and it works fine. I changed to Basic authentication and the Service.svc file returns the 403 error before I am even prompted to login. The Default.aspx page prompts me to login and then displays correctly. I had the sample working fine on my Windows XP workstation it just won't run on Windows Server 2003. Does anyone know what else I can check to get this working Thanks, Matthew Sajay, I tried running the ServiceMod ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System How to Restore Report Parameters to Their Original Values

  I was trying to modify the default "Plan Completion Date" in the "Unplanned Work" Report, that comes with TFS. I went to the report properties and selected the "Parameters" tab. There, I clicked the "Override Default" button for the "PlanCompletionDate" parameter, so it would allow me to specify a custom date. There I entered this date: "12/16/2006". After that, I clicked "View" to view my report and it worked fine. No problems here. Then, I decided to do the same for the "PlanCompletionDateCtrl" and "StartDateParam" parameters. So I did exactly the same. But then, when I clicked "View" to see the report, I got this error: An error ...Show All

  I am a beginner to VB.Net, I am in my first intro class about it, and I have a question: I'm having to do a project on business travel expenses.

Sub procedures should be used for the input and output. The whole output box is to look like this: Business Travel Ex ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL 2005 -> SQL 2000

  How can I export my database from SQL Server 2005 to SQL Server 2000 Restoring .bak, does not work. I'm lost here. I have created a db on my dev machine which runs SQL Express 2005 and I wouldn't have ever dreamed that you can't transfer data from SQL 2005 to SQL 2000. There's even a setting to set compatibility of the db (and I have it set to SQL 2000) which doesn't help at all. Maybe you can suggest an intermediate format to use For example, with mysql you can easily export the whole db (structure + data) in one text file. I think there should be a way to at least export db structure from SQL 2005 and then import it to SLQ 2000. SQL Server Management Studio Express (which I use with my SQL Express) allows me to copy-paste the data in d ...Show All

• Silverlight (formerly WPF/E) Symbols support?

  Currently SVG supports symbols ("defs") - complex elements that are described once and can be referenced and displayed many times throughout the code (tree). This saves a lot of byte-size for the files being used. Is there a similar feature in WPF/E Hi Barak, That works perfectly for elements created on the front end, but if I have a web service assembling the XAML on the back end, I would be concerned with the bandwidth required by the larger files, especially if there are hundreds of identical symbols involved. ...Show All
