• .NET Development Passing a Form handle to a class constructor

  I'm just starting to use Managed C++ and .NET. I'm still in the early learning stages. Basically, I have a Window Form that has a value for MyClass to use. I thought I could use the following code to pass the Form1 handle to the Myclass constructor. First, the compiler says MyProgram is not a namespace. I've placed the using namespace into the MyClass.h, but this dosesn't help I think it may be a chicked before the egg kind of thing, but want to make sure I'm not missing something. Currently, I have a private member method within the Form1 class called setMyClass( ^Form1 ) which works but this doesn't seem very OOP to me. //---MyClass.h--- #pragma once public ref class CMyClass { public: CMyClass( MyProgram::Form1 ^hFor ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Please include options in Compare (e g ignore owner)

  When I compare two schemas I would like more options the check like, ignore schema owner. So if an object is the same but has a different owner it should appear as a difference. Even nicer it could appear with a different colour with appropriate text explanation tool-tip-text. Best regards Niklas Engfelt Niklas - On the Schema Compare toolbar, you should see a "Schema Compare Options" button. Have you tried that button to set options that control what is ignored when comparing databases The options should also be available from the menu, but I don't believe that is implemented yet. I should also note that while you can set options, in CTP3, they weren't all working correctly (I think th ...Show All

• Visual C# Adding a column of type AutoNumber

  Hi. I am writing a program that connects to an Access database. The table can have any number of rows. In my example I have about 172,000 rows. Now I am trying to use the following DDL statement to add a column of type AutoNumber to this table. alter table <Table_Name> add column <Column_Name> COUNTER NOT NULL But I get the following error: [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] File sharing lock count exceeded. Increase MaxLocksPerFile registry entry. Now, one way to fix this is to modify the registry entry to the value '172,000' for the database driver as mentioned in the error message. But the users of my program can have any number of rows in their table. So, is there a way to (preferably usi ...Show All

• Windows Forms problem resizing tablelayoutpanel

  Hi all, I have a tablelayoutpanel filled inside a splitter container. when I try to increase the size of tablelayoutpanel by moving splitter, always the last row of tablelayoutpanel is becoming bigger. I want to increase the size of the first row. Is it possible Seems you are using a horizontal splitter container, right did you try to adjust the height of your rows in percentages instead of absolute values or vise-versa I can't be sure which will be more suitable to you as it depends on the number of rows and their respective orientations and sizes. The rule generally is: absolute values over percentages! that is, if you want your last row to remain unsized, adjust its height to an absolute value, then ...Show All

• .NET Development .Net 2.0 loaded 1.1 needed

  On a new system I loaded Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0, now some of my applications need Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1. Of which I can not load, even after unloading 2.0. Using XP Pro SP2. Any Suggestions Ordinarily a .NET application will try to run by the same framework version as it was compiled for (provided no overrides exist) and it is strange that installing the 2.0 Framework caused your 1.1 apps to try to run in 2.0 and stop working. Have you tried reinstalling/repairing the 1.1 Framework Also worth noting is that when you have multiple versions of the framework installed and you absolutely want to have control over the framework that your app runs in (provided it is installed) you can modify the apps config fi ...Show All

• SQL Server Hidden Subreport Executing Queries

  I'm currently developing a report in which the customer has requested a drill-down type of interface that starts at a regional level to a district level to a territory level and finally to the individual customers within the territory. The drill-down interface was easy to create by using Groups in conjunction with the ToggleItem and Visibility.Hidden properties at the different Grouping levels. The problem I have run into is that there are around 1 Million customers across the country and the report was attempting to retrieve all of the records at all levels at once. This turns out to be unworkable from a performance standpoint. To try to work around this I proposed using drill-through at the territory level to open a new report w ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Compile a stand-alone cpp using the IDE

  Hey guys, can anyone tell me if it is possible to compile a stand-alone cpp using the Visual C++ Express IDE. I've seen in the other threads that it's possible using the command prompt compiler. But I dont want that! How do I compile a .cpp file without using a project It was possible in previous versions of VC++ (atleast to my knowledge!), in that if you try to compile a .cpp without a project, it would make a temporary project and compile it, doing all that in the background. Plus, in another thread, someone said I should uncheck the 'Save new projects when created' option in the 'Projects and Solutions' node in the Options dialog (Tools > Options). But it's still not working. There is no Build option for the stand-alone. What do I do ...Show All
