• Software Development for Windows Vista Where should I store Global Application data on Vista?

  I have some files which should be accessible for all users for read and write. Where should put this type of files on Vista In XP I would put it into Program Files\[MyApp] folder, but in Vista you need to have Administrator rights to write into Program Files. I thought about putting files into All Users folder, but not all users can write there. You can't be serious Under XP Environment.SpecialFolder.CommonApplicationData is: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data Under Vista it is: C:\ProgramData\ but this location requires admin rights in order to be writeable so it seems since our application cannot write to: C:\ProgramData\<Company Name>\<App Name>\ Th ...Show All

• Visual Basic Passing Optional Arrays to a Sub

  In Visual Basic 2005, I am trying to create a sub in a class that takes an optional string(). However, I am unable to figure out how to set the default value. I have already tried: Public Sub getData(Optional ByVal postData() as String = {"", ""}) However, I get an expression required error at the {. Also, I tried the New String(), but then I get the error saying it must be a constant. What am I missing Thanks. Optional Pararmeters require a constant and as a constant cannot be declared as an array you can't do this. Why not use an overloaded function - Private Sub GeData( ByVal postData As String ()) ' my work End Sub Private Sub GeData() ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Scroll Form in Smartphone

  Hi guys, is other than setting the property AutoScroll to true I need to implement other thing in order to scroll the form that contains controls I have a label on the form, I see the scroll bar, but even that the label size is exceeds the form borders I can scroll the form.. thanks for any suggestion, Oren. Hmm, I appear to have a more difficult problem. I have forms that are spaced out with several labels. Imagine a form with a screen of label, then a textbox, another screen of label, a second text box and another screen of label. Unlikely I know but feasible - and yes I have one. With the autoscrolling stuff in NetCFv2 it jumps from CanFocus control to CanFocus control, i ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Maximum class / method / application size ?

  I am having a problem with my Compact Framework application which is very hard to track down.Specs are WM 5.0, CF 1.2, VS 2003. The situation is this: I have a form class which uses the OpennetCF Signature control. It works fine up to a certain threshold point. After that point, I add another control to the form. It does not matter what type of control I add; it causes the same symptoms. Once this control is added, the class (or whatever) seems to be too big. There are no compile-time errors. However, when the code comes to use the Signature control in any way, I get a Null Reference Exception as if I never instantiated it. The strange thing is that when I remove the offending control by deleting it off the form and bring the application ...Show All

• SQL Server Trigger to insert multiple records into related table

  I'm very new to triggers (and stored procedures), I've done a bit of searching and can't seem to find the right direction. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here is my situation: Thanks in advance! I have 2 tables: Cat_Control (parent), Det_Control (child). They are related via an auto-incrementing ID (Cat_Control_ID) When the user enters a new record into the Cat_Control table, I would like to automatically fill in several default records into the Det_Control table. These default records will be pre-defined based on the Cat_Control.Name field from the record that was just added to the Cat_Control table. I'm sure this is way off base but I hope it will help to clarify what I'm looking to do: 1) For Each Cat_Control rec ...Show All

• SharePoint Products and Technologies Top Navigation Bar: Odd Behavior

  I create a new site collection using the Collaboration Portal template. As a result my initial top navigation bar had the following links: <Site Name>, Document Center, News (with two sub nodes), Search, and Sites. Now I wished to have a tab that would drop down and allow me to access sub-sites using the top navigation bar (rather than having to go through the sites links). To accomplish this I create a feature which upon activation would create the required SPNavigationNode(s) and then add them to the navigation bar. I've had previous issues with this and therefore included some debugging statements in the code to let me see what was going on in the background. When activated the feature my new node (and sub nodes) were created s ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Extract values from persisted workflow without instanciate it

I have a workflow that describes the life cycle of a customer inside a business home. When the customer arrive, they are admitted in the reception where a few personal information is gathered.
