• SQL Server Internet Explorer 7 Release Candidate 1

• .NET Development Problems with Regex.IsMatch and IndexOf methods

  Hi, I am developing a C# application and am trying to search for a string within a text. I tried using both Regex.IsMatch and IndexOf methods but they are somehow not working for me. Is there any other way to do the search Thanks, Hi yes there are alot of other ways to do search in a string for example split your string in the words, and search the array returned or load it to any collection and check Contains method.You can split string using string.Split method.

• Visual Studio Express Editions VB.NET-Deployment (UNC)

  Hello! I know to go through the 'Publish' Wizard to "setup & deploy" my VB.NET VBE application. However, where it prompts for the path that the app will be loaded from, what is/does the 'UNC' need to be set to Thanks in advance... The UNC path needs to be set only if you are installing to a network or file share (i.e. deploy to a shared server somewhere).

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Why does ClientBase Dispose need to throw on faulted state? (Or, what's the difference between close and abort?)

  Could someone enlighten me as to why calling Dispose on a faulted client proxy needs to throw an CommunicationObjectFaultedException instead of just aborting the client   Essentially we have to do this: Client c = new Client(); try {  c.Foo();  c.Close(); } catch (Exception) {  c.Abort();  throw; } Instead of: using(Client c = new Client()) {  c.Foo(); } Yes, I've read the justifications in the SDK and here: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=627970&SiteID=1  but the "summary of internal discussion" seems to be "well, that's what we're doing, so deal with it." I still don't understand why Close must throw instead of just, well, closing I know I'm going to have to live with i ...Show All

• Visual C++ relinking RTM libraries for VS2005SP1

  Hello.I cannot relinking CRT libraries (msvcr80.dll, ...) due to unhandld.obj. This obj is not generated during compiling. I used original makefile from VS2005 SP1. Can you help me. Thanks. Great! FYI, I just got official word from Alan of the VC libraries team that a better way to perform the unhandld.obj extraction and placement is to run the following command in your SRC folder (from a Visual Studio 2005 command prompt): for %i in (dll mt xdll xmt) do pushd intel\%i_lib && lib /extract:..\build\intel\%i_obj\unhandld.obj eh.lib && popd Ted. ...Show All

• Smart Device Development How to Increase the Pocket PC 2003 Emulator Device Memory ?

  I am running out of memory when deploying a vb 2005 application (with sql ce). So I want to increase the emulator memory Using VS 2005 I have gone into tools>options>device tools>devices>Pocket PC 2003 SE Emulator>Properties>Emulator Options> .. tick Specify RAM Size, and put 64, 128 or 256 in the ram size box. Then I kick off the emulator either by running the vb project or by running it from "Device Emulator Manager" - my setting seems to be always ignored and the device memory is showing as 29.70MB. A hard reset of the running device does not solve the problem. Neither does rebooting the PC. Any ideas thanks  note I am able to kick off the emulator manually, using this command line....
