• Windows Forms FileIOPermission on Deployment

  I have a clickonce app with embedded VB "custom code" for a local rdlc report file. When I deploy this to a file share and then install on a client - I have file IO permission (I can write a text file on the client). However, when I try to  run a report - I get the following exception: Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.LocalProcessingException: An error occurred during local report processing. ---> Microsoft.Reporting.DefinitionInvalidException: The definition of the report 'Main Report' is invalid. ---> Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportProcessing.ReportProcessingException: An unexpected error occurred in Report Processing. ---> System.Security.SecurityException: Request for the permission of type 'System.Sec ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Noob VB Questions

  Alright, I'm trying to make a program that has two buttons. When the user puts his/her mouse over the top button, it gets disable and the other button gets enabled. In other words, I want to make it so the user can't press either of the buttons because everytime they put their mouse over a button it gets diabled. If the user does somehow press one of the buttons, I want a dialog box to appear and display some text. This is probably pretty simple but I'm just completely new to vb.

• Visual Studio Visual Studio 2005 and VSS integration issues

  Are there any known issues with Visual Studio 2005 integrating with VSS We have several developers upgraded to Visual Studio 2005 but we continue to use VSS for source control. But we have been having problems with files opened in Visual Studio which are preventing VSS from performing basic operations like applying a label. Has anyone heard of any issues like this Is there anything we can do to resolve this problem Maggie, VS 2005 and VSS are designed to work together. I assume you are managing your projects and solutions from Visual Studio using the source control integration. To track this down, I need more details about the problem you are seeing. Are you trying to apply a label from ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) How to determine message size that goes over wire?

  Hi , I need to determine System.ServiceModel.Channels. Message size that goes over wire. I have intercepted message in public void AfterReceiveReply( ref System.ServiceModel.Channels. Message reply, object correlationState) method of IClientMessageInspector interface. In quick watch reply message was formatted and when I saved it in txt file, file size was 105K. Then, I tried to serialize it in file in AfterReceiveReply method with: System.IO. Stream str = new System.IO. FileStream ( @"c:\file" , System.IO. FileMode .Create); System.ServiceModel.Channels. MessageBuffer mb = reply.CreateBufferedCopy(maxBufferSize); mb.WriteMessage(str); and file size was 70K. Is any of these two va ...Show All

• Visual C++ Is it possible to use MFC42 (compile and link) under VC++ 8 (MSVS 2005)?

  May be rather weird idea, but one of our customer using our SDK is demanding it. Thank you for hints. I could understand a motivation to create an EXE on VS 2005 that only made calls to MFC42.DLL: Suppose a C++ developer wants to bring a VC++ 6.0 project to VStudio 2005, but build an EXE that can run on XP, Windows 98, and Vista. 1) Then, wouldn't it be easier to have the thing compile so its function calls to MFC only reference MFC42.DLL, which is already included on Win 98 and later machines 2) If the EXE's from a VStudio 2005 build only reference later versions of MFC__.DLL, how could that EXE be properly installed on a Windows 98 machine ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Utter lack of Icon documentation

  I'm trying to update an application to be nice and Vista-y; the current problem is with icons. What icon sizes should my application have to be Vista+XP compatible. How can I tell In particular, why doesn't Microsoft actually documentation the icon file format As near as I can tell, there are single-byte 'height' and 'width' values in the list-of-icons in the icon header. This means that icons can only be 0 to 255 pixels. However, it seems that icons in Vista can in fact be 256 pixels, so clearly there isn't a simple mathematical relationship between the value in the file and the value used. My question is: what is the mathematical relationship between the height and width fields and the actual icon height Are they just set to zero, bu ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Question on an old 16-bit application

  We have a legacy 16-bit application that we still support. It was originally designed for Windows 3.1 (remember that ) and its architecture requires a "feature" of 16-bit DLLs where different applications could share the memory space of a common DLL. In the example, the central admin.dll stores the state of the logged in user to the application. Other "modules" can then call that DLL and read and update the state. This has worked all the way up to Windows XP. As we know, in the 32-bit world, and the more secure world of application programming, we wouldn't want to allow different applications to "borrow" the memory space of a DLL, so each application gets its own instance of the DLL, but it seems there was ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums Nedd Help Adding & controlling multiple tile layers in 3d mode.

  I created 5 tile layers using the mapcruncher tool. If I click the "preview" link, it loads the newly created layers in 2d mode just fine, with the ability to turn them off and on and zoom-to. I want to do the exact thing in 3d mode. Is it possible I've spent hours now trying to get that to work with no luck. I have had some success loading all of the layers in 3d mode, but without the ability to turn them off and on and zoom to. I am an amateur javascript guy, so I probably am going about it all wrong. Does anyone have an example chunk of code that will essentially duplicate this functionality Any help would be appreciated. Aaron   ...Show All
