• Windows Forms order of radio buttons

  I have 3 radio buttons, when I press the arrow keys the order is 1, 3 then 2 can I changed that Hello All. GrahamY: Change the TabIndex properties of the radiobuttons so that they are sequential, in the order that you want them to be. You can do this either in the Properties window for each radiobutton, or by selecting View -> Tab Order in the Designer menu, and clicking on each of the radiobuttons in the order that you want them to be selected. Be advised that this approach resets the tab order of all of the controls on the form, so if you have a lot of other controls on the form, you will have to cycle through them as well.

What to are guidelines, concerns, issues and best practises for deriving custom activities from (custom) base activities 2. Should activity derivation be discouraged ..encouraged Thanks, Michael. Hi Angel Thanks for the advice. It makes sense, I can see how that would work. However what I would really like to do is hide the addition of my activities so that the user would only see an empty sequence. I was going to do this by altering the designer. Using the ToolboxItem approach it seems I could not acheive that. A ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Cross Thread UI Control Access

  Is there a way with WPF to update an Image control in a Window from a different thread from whence it was created I am trying to start a separate thread to constantly pull images from the Internet and update an Image control in my Window. I need to do this in a separate thread to keep the UI controls responsive. In a Forms application, I could use Invoke() with some delegates and accomplish this. WPF Forms does not have Invoke(). I have looked at BackgroundWorker class, but that only lets me report progress. As soon I try to update any control directly, I get an error stating that the control was created in another thread. Any ideas which direction I should follow WPF does have an Invoke method on ...Show All

• .NET Development Imagelist (error when loading the imagestream during the InitializeComponent)

  I've got a weird problem that I'm experiencing with VS2003 installed with VS2005.

• SQL Server xmlDocument - openxml

  Hello, I am trying to use OPENXML to read the data inside the xml file. Initially I parse the xml using the xmlDocument.OuterXml to retrieve the xml as string. This string is then passed to the sql query which uses openxml. The error I am getting is: Server: Msg 6603, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_xml_preparedocument, Line 14 XML parsing error: A string literal was expected, but no opening quote character was found. After investigations and some tests on OPENXML query, I now know the error is to do with the xml string itself. For example if I copy and paste the xmlstring into a text file and save it as .xml, I get the same error if I double click on the file to open it in Internet Explorer. So how else can I get the correct version ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System How to pass value of a context parameter to a web/load test via VS command prompt

  Hi, I've a web test that has a context parameter (say pageurl). I am able to set a value in the VS and run from both VS and cmd prmt. How ever if I want to run the same webtest for a different value, is it possible for me to set the value @ cmd prmt and run the webtest (I'll not set the value of CP in the VS). This way, I can make my webtest more generic. if this particular webtest is passed as a value for a load test, will it be able to actually hit the page URL I've set via cmd prmt Thanks in advance.

• Visual C++ GetProcAddress doesnt find the function in my dll

  Hi all! I've just started dealing with dll-s for two days, but I got stucked and dont see how to move on..so to make my first steps, with some searching I created a Test.dll with a function fnTest() in it. Exactly it's prototype in the header file looks like the following: __declspec(dllexport) int fnTest(void); If I'm using implicit linking it's ok. The trouble is on when I try to link it explicitly. HINSTANCE Testdll; Testdll = LoadLibrary("Test.dll"); They are still good, it finds the Test.dll, but the GetProcAddress returns with NULL, although it should work..(The dll is correct, it worked while linking implicitly): fnTestptr importaltfnTest; importaltfnTest = (fnTestptr)GetProcAddress(Testdll,"fnTes ...Show All
