I found a bug of VE in Firefox when i add 2 or more maps in the same html page; when i add polylines to both the maps, panning the first map causes misaligning of the polyline.

SQL Server Reporting Services 2005 on a separate server
I recently installed an instance of SQL Server 2005 on a server that didn't have IIS. I received an error notification in the install logs that some components of SQL Server would not work. This lead me to wonder if Reporting Services 2005 truly can be installed on a separate server and run efficiently, so I pose the question to anyone out there who has had success doing so. Does IIS need to be installed on a server running an instance of SQL Server 2005 even if Reporting Services is not installed and is intended to be installed on a separate server Any installation recommendations in installing RS 2005 on a separate server Hi, some short answers, I hope they are suffiecient to your questions: RS needs IIS ...Show All

Windows Forms Acquiring Deployment Info from VB
I've created a simple project in Visual Studio .NET 2005 Professional according to the information from the following link: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/49b92ztk(vs.80).aspx I've added various steps to the installation side of things and would now like to be able to acquire customer details etc from the vb code.

Visual C# overloading == operator in c# fails checking for null values
Hi, I have developed one class called CProductInfo providing == and != operator features. I have one problem. When I use this class in my program, say CProductInfo product = null; and later, when i check for emptiness, if (product==null) it returns false as if the product instance is not empty.

Visual C# Thread Synchronize Question - Event Flags?
I have a thread that waits to be kicked into action by one of 2 other threads. And depending on which thread kicked the thread it will take different actions. I have looked at the Monitor, Semaphores and Mutexes but none of them seem appropriate as they will . I know in some RTOS there is an event group that has a set of flag bits that can be set, and based on the bit set the kicking thread can be determined. Any Suggestions Mario, I have been playing with the WaitHandle.WaitAny() and this looks like it will accomplish what I need. Although I am still trying to determine where best to store the array of WaitHandle[]. Thanks for pointing me int he right direction. Liam ...Show All

Visual Studio Express Editions Left side solicits unassigned variable error
When assigning a value to a variable, I get the error Use of unassigned local variable 'outgoing' The compiler is complaining that the variable on the left side of the equals sign has not had any value assigned. I have two problems with this: First: I understand that the new used in the class should set all array members to zero. And second, this is on the receiving end of the assignment. What does it matter if it has not had a value assigned. Its getting one now. I used the same structure as the incoming argument in that called procedure Update_Raw_Data() and it compiles without error. This is the only error in the project. There simply must be something I cannot see. Please clue me in. If needed, I can zip and email the e ...Show All
