• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums Textbox is read only

  Hi All, I am trying to assign a value to a texbox.value but I am getting an error msg the the field I am trying to assign a value to is read only. How can I clear the read only property from this txtbox. Any ideas on how to do this is greatly appreciated. Private Sub Form_Load() CustID.Value = Me.OpenArgs End Sub Thanks Hi, I don't think it's the text box that's read only but the field which it is bound to. Check the CustID field of the forms data source and see if it's read only property is set. Could also be that the form has been bound to a query thats too complex to allow updates. Hope that helps. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Can a method accept paramaters of one type and then return a boolean?

  Somewhat of an example of the question I am asking: public Boolean InCircle( int p, int q) { Boolean truefalse = true ; if(p < q) truefalse = true; else truefalse = false; return truefalse; } I don't believe that this idea might work but I wonder if it could. absolutely that will be fine. its the return type that matters and has to be the correct value being passed back to the caller. Since you have a Boolean as a return type, and you are returning a boolean value, it will work fine but if you tried to say return back the number 1 from a Boolean method like your example, you will get a compiler error since there was no correct return type given ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) WCF X.509 CAs?

  Can anyone point me to CA's of certificates suitable for WCF encryption and what do I ask for I understand that the standard SSL certs do not work and the sales reps are not knowledgeable about WCF requirements. Thanks John Hi Rajeet, Not all the SSL certificates work with WCF. For instance, the SSL certificates provided by some vendors do not meet all the requeriments. WCF or WSE usually require the following in a certificate KeyUsage: Digital Signature, Non-Repudiation, Key Encipherment, Data Encipherment (f0) Enhanced Key Usage: Client Authentication (1.3.6.1.5.5.7.3.2) But, most SSL certificates have the following properties: KeyUsage: Digital Signature, Key Encipherment (a0) ...Show All

• Windows Forms Color Matrix question

  Hi, some help would be greatly appreciated from someone familiar with color matrix coding. I am trying to open an image from disk, fade it, and save it back to disk. (the faded image should appear almost white - like a watermark.) however I am not getting the desired results. when I write the faded image to the screen, I get the result I am expecting. However when I write the same image to disk, then view using an image viewer, it appears darker rather than lighter. here is the code I am using: ---------------------------------------------- System.Drawing.Image canvas; Bitmap myBM; Graphics myGR; canvas = System.Drawing.Image.FromFile(myFile); int phWidth = canvas.Width; int phHeight = canvas.Heig ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Graphical Design Tools for WPF?

  HI, We are planning to use WPF for our next big project. From our research, we couldn't find a graphical design tool, which is integrated in Visual Studio. Is there going to be a graphical design tool in Visual Studio Thanks, bsg01 You have several options. Since WPF is not final do not expect the tools to be final yet either. There is Aurora which is a third party tool. There is Cider which is part of the tools intended for the Orcas release of VS but is available on a CTP basis now. There is Sparkle which is closer to a late beta but will not be final until after WPF is final. No final words on the release dates on any of these tools. Cider is aimed more at those using Windows Forms today, w ...Show All

• Visual C# I have this application in my head..........

  I am in the process of trying to leave healthcare after a twenty year run at it. No I'm not a nurse or a doctor, I work in the Lab, to be more specific I'm the guy that comes and wakes you up at 2 a.m. so that I can draw your blood. I have seen alot of stuff come and go, and none of it actually does what we need it to do, so being someone that knows what we actually need to make things alot better in the laboratory medicine arena I have been learning C# as fast as I can, and found that I have picked it up quite nicely.
