• Visual Basic Integrating .Net into a VB6 client

  Hello I have a question about whats the best way to integrate a .Net application into an "old" VB6 application. The current problem is that we need to rewrite "parts" of the application and need to incorperate those "parts" into an old legacy System... This system is written in VB6 and the goal would be to make this possible with the smallest amount of changes to the VB6 code. I was thinking about creating a plugin or something like that which would have its own form or controls and only require a very "minimalistic interface" (like show()) Are there any patterns which I should take a closer look at or has anyone a suggestion on what would work best The "part" of the system will ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Marquee / Scrolling Text

  Hi, Is it possible to create a marque or scrolling text in WPF. One approach I can think of is by using timers and doing it programatically. Is there any other approach Thanks Sai Ishmael: As I mentioned above the code uses fixed size values. Here's a more generic solution. This uses my JScriptConverter to make a few small calculations, the source is available here ( http://11011.net/archives/000668.html ) < Window x:Class = " Marquee.Window1 " xmlns = " http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation " xmlns:x = " http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml " xmlns:utils = " clr-namespace:Utils.Avalon " > < Window.R ...Show All

• Visual Basic Closing a form

  How can I tell whether a form is being closed because the user clicked the X in the form control box vs. code that performs me.close(). The two methods give me different results and I'd like to know if the X was clicked so that I can handle that specifically. Thanks, /jerry For the clarification of the users here: Both method keep the Menubar "x" from closing the form.... The global variable method used will only let "Button1" close the form....it doesn't however inform you of what was trying to close the form...I agree it is a simplier solution in which the programmer may impliment easier, however the solution I provide gives the programmer a wider range of accurate control o ...Show All

• SQL Server Dynamix mdx query

  I'm not to familiar with mdx, so I don't manage to create a dynamix mdx query in RS against my AS cube. What I'm looking for is having two parameters @par1 and @par2 that decide what dimensions to query against. The default query I get when I create a mdx with designer looks like the one below. The problem is that instead of [Product].[Product].[Product] and [Supplier].[Supplier].[Supplier] I would like to use my parameters. The parameters can contain the value Supplier, Product, Customer and all other names of the valid dimensions. I thought maybe it was possible to do somthing like this: [@par1].[@par1].[@par1], but that didnt work :-) I have also tryed using with and set, but havnt managed to make it work.

• SQL Server Template Explorer - Changing file location / Removing Defaults

  I have been unable to remove the default list of SQL Server Templates from management studio. I don't really care about the ones already in there, but have hundreds of my own that i would rather be displayed. I don't like searching through the 25 different folders that microsoft already has out there cluttering up my own folder structure, and would like to see them disapear, however after deleting them, they just come back next time i open up management studio. Does anyone know how I can remove the default templates, or change the template location to point somewhere else so i don't see them in the explorer list anymore Thanks in advance, Chris I have to say so far I'm really disappointed in SSMS I was hoping that it would ...Show All

• SQL Server Row height issue on export to Excel

  Hi all, I've been having some problems with a report on export to Excel. I have four tables, contained within a rectangle at the top of the report, followed by a second page of tables dynamically generated by the data being fed into the report. On export to Excel, the top sections of tables appear to export with a fixed row height that does not show all of the string contained within the cell. I've had similar issues before with "title" textboxes, but these are usually easily solved by expanding the height of the box within the report. In this case, this hasn't worked! Any idea Regards, Jon If you have other tables at the same horizontal level, or other r ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Confused about two versions of my data in my project and my ability to save data

  I'm having problems saving my data when I'm testing my application. I've read some threads on the subject and as I understand it, I actually have two copies of my data in my project. I'm using an MSAccess database for my data. I don't know if I made a mistake when I attached the data to my project (or imported it ) that is causing me not to be able to save data or not. I tried changing the 'Copy Output to Directory' property of the dataset and even the form that contains a datagridview that I'm trying to add data to from 'Do Not Copy' to 'Copy if Newer' and that did not solve my problem. I guess my questions are: 1. What do I need to do with my dataset to allow me to save changes as I test my application If it involves me deletin ...Show All

• SQL Server DataSet Access from a matrix

  Data Set Access from a matrix I am trying to create a schedule by room number report. I am using a matrix. The column group that I am using is room number. There is no row group. When you group by room it is only allowing me access to the first data item for that room. Even though there are other data items for that room I can not access them. I can not access all data items in that grouping expression. Is there a way to get unobstructed access to a dataset while working in a matrix and grouping If you are not getting back the correct data... I would use a table format and grouping... you can "trick" the look of the report to appear like a matrix.. Hope this helps.. ...Show All
