• Software Development for Windows Vista UAC Shield in menus?

  Thankfully there's an easy way to add the UAC shield to buttons by using BCM_SETSHIELD. I wonder though - is there a similar option for menus somewhere The docs say that context menus are supported via DefCM but I'm really looking to add the shield icon to a generic popup menu. Can I do this without ownerdrawing it -Marton actually MIIM_BITMAP has been around since Windows 98, according to the SDK docs http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp url=/library/en-us/winui/WinUI/WindowsUserInterface/Resources/Menus/MenuReference/MenuStructures/MENUITEMINFO.asp but not according to the SDK headers (where it says if WINVER >= 0x0500 which means Windows Me and 2000 or higher) It's rather tragic ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Can not install because TFS is already installed on server???

  We had asked a contractor to take the time to install the Workgroup edition of TFS on a department server for evaluation. The contractor ended up leaving and the state of the TFS installation was unclear so I simply uninstalled TFS and initiated a re-install myself. SQL and Sharepoint seem to be fine. At this point the installation for TFS gives me an error while it is checking for pre-requisites and states that it can't install TFS because TFS is already installed on the server. I of course had already successfully uninstalled it. It does not show up under Control Panel - Add, Remove Programs. Does anyone out there no how I can get past this Thanks, Dale Yes, this is a single-ser ...Show All

• Commerce Server Trouble verifying services

  I have followed all of the steps in the online installation guide, and restarted IIS. I have also verified that a folder was created for each web service (\Intepub\wwwroot\siteCatalogWebService; Intepub\wwwroot\siteMarketingWebService; Intepub\wwwroot\siteOrdersWebService; Intepub\wwwroot\siteProfilesWebService). Then the guide says to visit the web page for each service (point browser to http://localhost/siteCatalogWebService/CatalogWebService.asmx ). I get a web page showing the methods of the service for the Catalog and Profile services, but when I point to the Marketing or Orders page I get an error saying: Configuration Error Description: An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file required to service ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums Bug? Pushpin text gets misplaced if pushpin located at the bottom of map

  Popup cloud gets misplaced when the pushpin located at the bottom of a map AND the browser window is smaller that the “height” value of the map’s DIV (there needs to be some space below the map’s DIV to reproduce the bug in IE). See the code sample to reproduce the bug. The code sample provides a map in a DIV with “height:500px” and some extra space below the DIV. There is a single pushpin in the very bottom of the map. If browser window height is bigger than 500 pixels then everything works fine. To reproduce the wrong behavior change your browser window height so that it is shorter than 500 pixels in height and scroll the content to the bottom of the page. Now, if you move your mouse over the pushpin the pushpin text appears way below th ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Regarding KB908002 (Shared Add-In Updates)

  Hi, I am going through a very strange problem, i am using InstallShield to deploy one of the VB.NET project (Visual Studio 2005) and it doesn't work at all. I have the same project setup file created by Visual Studio 2005 and the good thing is it works fine. I didn't figure out what and where things are wrong. Onething about KB908002 (Shared Add-In), if you remove this from Add/Remove Control Panel and try to re-install, it seems like it doesnt work even if it was working previously. My Question is, am i missing something which VS 2005 is doing apart from KB908002, because i have added this folder already. But it seems like there is something which is also done by Visual Studio 2005 (Installer Package) because once you un-installe ...Show All
