Visual Basic Load a menu from remote assembly
I still remember vividly creating random AOL plugins: modifying menus, custom actions for chatrooms, and it was all done with the Windows API. Now fast-forward to VB 2005, and I need to do a somewhat similar thing; but things have changed. I have an app that loads any given assembly that implements a given interface. All is well, and I can re-use my app on quite a few projects. Except, I don't have a way to let the user interact with the loaded assembly via custom menus... Before I broke up my application into a generic part and assembly part, there was a menu that would allow the user to select this or that option; show this or that form. But since I want to load any given (conforming) assembly, that means the assemblies must somehow loa ...Show All
Visual C# What is the idea behind this program?
Hello everybody. I would like to make a small program for my university I am in. Just a little bit of history. Very often I see people that have not logged out of their accounts. A bad person can do a lot of damage if you have left your accound logged. What I want to do is to write a program to monitor the user's activity. Let's say he/she can define a time interval. If there is no activity during this period, the prograt should log off the user automatically. That's it. So could you guys explain to me the general idea behind this program(programmer's point). How can I monitor the user's activity and stuff like that. Any help would be greatly appreciated. With all the respect, chire J ...Show All
Software Development for Windows Vista Xml Persistence
Hi together, I am playing around with the new Windows Workflow Foundation. After I have taken a closer look at the persistence option of the workflow, I am wondering how can I implement a XML persistence service. All examples I have found show how to implement a file persistance (binary stream). Any hint would be great, Cheers, Franz Hi Franz, The normal persistence behavior is to call WorkflowPersistenceService.GetDefaultSerializedForm which does a compressed binary serialization. The actual serialization is done by calling Save() on the root activity (the workflow) and saving that. The Save() function has another overload you can call with a IFormatter. Now as far as I know there is no native IFormatter ...Show All

SQL Server Package fails but single Task ends with success
Hi I've created a simple package that contains only one task that is an execute sql task. When I run only this single task from Business Intelligence development studio it runs successfully. But when I run the whole package (also from Business intlligence studio), the package fails. The data source I access is ODBC. I'm sure the real reason for the error is the bad ODBC driver of the data source but this can't be changed. So I need to know what is different from running only a task in a package to running the whole package. If I knew that I might be able to adjust some setting and make it work. Any help welcome. I've checked the package in package explorer but there's only the one executable that ...Show All
SQL Server Cannot find the queue 'SqlQueryNotificationService-{guid}'
I am trying to get my application running on a customer site. They are being very picky about security on the database. What are the correct permissions to setup to allow my sql user to use the Service Broker. Currently I am receiving the following error: Cannot fin the user 'owner', because it does not exist or you do not have permission. Cannot find the queue 'SqlQueryNotificationService-<guid>', because it does not exist or you do not have permission. If I make my user db_owner it seems to work on other installs.

SQL Server AdventureWorks Owner
Hi, I've installed AdventureWorks, attached it to SQL Express and wanted to see its Database Diagrams. When I click on the Database Diagrams, I get this error message: TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express ------------------------------ Database diagram support objects cannot be installed because this database does not have a valid owner.

Windows Forms Multiple Columns on a Listbox from a Bound Source
Hi. This is probably a typical noob question, but i cannot seem to find an answer. I am using Visual Studio 2005 Professional. I have dragged a list box control onto my screen and bound it to a database table showing a list of names. I can select a value and pass it to another screen quite happily. However, I would like to show several other columns (3 at least) for information only. The current column holds the data I need to pass, I just need to show these other columns to allow at a glance review of status. eg. <Name> <Val> <Val> <Text> so that the name is passed using .SelectedItem.ToString I am using the visual designer, but dont see amything in properti ...Show All
Visual Studio Express Editions Moving On
Moving on from my last post, where I wanted to draw an ellipse in Picturebox1. I now want to copy the part of the image that is inside the ellipse and move it to picturebox2. I've been looking at Transform and Translate examples but not sure how to adapt them to what I'm after. Most of them just show you how to draw a rectangle and move it 100 pixels to the left. Some pointers please would be helpful. First of all you should be doing all of the drawing on a bitmap and copying the bitmap into the picturebox. I haven't been following this, but I'm sure it's been shared with you a picture is one of the worse things to draw on, however there's nothing wrong with using a bitmap as a drawing surface ...Show All

.NET Development Generating WSDL file via a UNC path
Hello, I have a .asmx file which I want to use to generate the .wsdl file so I can pass it to the WSDL.EXE tool to generate the cs proxy class. I do not have access to the web server so I'm forced to use a UNC path to access the asmx file, how do I go about generating a .wsdl file from it without using the web server I ran into the same thing and my quick fix was to add a Web Reference to the ASMX file within a Visual Studio Solution (in my case, it was the same solution used to create the Web Service in the first place) and Visual Studio generated the WSDL, DISCO, and DISCOMAP files for me automatically. Let me know if that helps... Gilbert ...Show All

SQL Server Analyze backup and restore rows
Hi, the other day, some data was deleted by mistake, the data that we wanted to delete was in just 1 table, and we deleted the related data in a couple tables more... We do full backups every Sunday and a Differential every day, my question is: Is there any way to analyze the backup file to compare the backed up data with the data that the table has now, and by automatic means restore just some rows to the table, or at least see the data to insert it manually Thanks! Makes sense. AFAIK there is nothing to do that natively in SQL Server. I know that some of the 3rd party backup agents do something like that. I am not sure how they are really doing it on the backend but I think that functionality in a database would be difficult to ...Show All
