• Visual Studio Tools for Office Display HTML text in Word (with VSTO)

  Hi, I would like to tell Word to interpret some text in HTML form and display only the resulting text well-formated. Here some code: Word.Range range = Range(ref missing, ref missing); range.Text = "Some normal text"; range.Bold = 1; range.InsertAfter("\n\n"); range.Collapse(ref collapseEnd); // now the html part range.Text = "<span class="A21">This is some html content</span>" ; range.InsertAfter("\n\n"); The second part of the code displays the HTML tags instaed of interpreting it as html. Any idea how I can fix this Thanks a lot for any help. Claudia As nobody has responded to my question... I guess there is no way to display html content we ...Show All

• .NET Development .Item property doesn't exist for ArrayLists???

  I'm getting compiler errors when trying to reference the .Item property for ArrayLists in my code. All the documentation I can find says this property does exist. But C# is telling me otherwise. If I say: ArrayList MyList = new ArrayList(); Object o = MyList.Item[3]; I get the compile-time error: System.Collections.ArrayList does not contain a definition for "Item" And as I'm entering my code and type "Mylist.", the IDE's auto-complete popup suggests "IsSynchronized" or "LastIndexOf" as the members at the place I'd expect to see the .Item property. I'm a bit of a C# newbie. Thanks for any help... It is true that the ArrayList class has an ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL Server Management Studio Express will no longer start

  I used to have both SQL Server 2005 Express and SQL Server Management Studio Express up running just fine until I installed (removed SQL 2005 Express) SQL Server 2005 for Developers and re-installed SQL Server Management Studio Express - now, SQL Server 2005 for Developers works, but I can not start SQL Server Management Studio Express No error messages, simply nothing happens when I execute ssmsee.exe.

• SQL Server Configurations and Child Packages

  Hello, I was hoping someone might be able to clarify how configuartions work with child packages. My process has 3 levels of packages. The main packages called two child packages each of which calls more child packages. I'm using Configurations to pass variables from parent packages to child packages. But each level of packages contains Data Flow Source/Destination connections. I was planning on having only 1 XML Configuration file in the main package that would allow the data connections for the main package to be configured for the target enviornment. When the job is scheduled I will be able to point a configuration file for use with the main packages. But will that configuration file be applied to all child packages that will ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Smart Phone and PocketPC friendly

  Hi, I'm developing an application which will have to run on both PPCs and SmartPhones (CF1, 2003SE+) It should be responsive to touch screens and handle screen rotation on PPC and handle keypresses on the SmartPhone. Ideally I'd like to just have one project with either 2 builds (and compiler constants) or some runtime device detection. This is will require good separation between the UI and the back end. But as this is my first real project of this nature, I'm not sure how this will turn out - is it possible to do the above successfully Any strategies, advice, links etc you could offer would be really appreciated.. Cheers, Hi... How can use a runtime detection to said if device have touch screen I need ...Show All
