• Windows Forms Is it possible to convert a ListItem object to an Image object?

  Hello, I'm working on a web app that will display the image of a selected image file listed in a ListBox. I have gotten the file names to show in the ListBox but can't figure out how to get a selected item's image to show in the image box control.

• .NET Development suggestion on DB design

  I have a db I would like to design and code against, but I have a FK contraint issue I believe and I think I need to redesign this. I would love to get your input on what to do please To simplify things, I have three tables, Teams, Arenas and WebLinks. Each row in Teams and Areanas can have multiple rows in WebLinks (one to many in both tables). I would like to use some referential integrity (FK constraints ), but I'm not sure how to do this If I implement as I have suggested above with three separate tables, then I can't put the FK on the WebLinks table as a row from Arenas won't be in Teams and the FK will fail. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. I have done bot ...Show All

• Visual C++ How to write on Windows desktop from C/C++ code ?

  I want to display on my desktop some useful informations like my IP, MAC address, current time, etc.. Is it possible to write these informations directly on Windows desktop from C/C++ code Any ideea If you do want to write there, you will have to intercept all painting calls aswell.

• Visual Basic How to Create a Console Window from a VB form?

  Hi, How can I make a windows form create a console window I can create a console application and add windows forms. This worked well. However I had to change the application type to a "Windows application" in order to get the splashscreen functionality. Now I havnt got a console window... Thanks John Many thanks for your post, it explains why I dont get the option for a splashscreen in a console app. However, what I'm really looking for is the ability to have a button on a form that would open a console up (and close it if required) where the app would dump more detailed debugging information. My app outputs debug info to the console whilst it's runnig. In visual studio the ...Show All

• Visual Studio Help Integration Wizard vs Sandcastle+SHFB

  Having generated an HxS file from Sandcastle + SHFB that contains a chunk of reference and some tutorial (using the Additional Content feature in SHFB) - I'm stuck trying to get the Help Integration Wizard to plug the HxS file into Visual Studio 2005's help collection. Following the very handy HowTo on MSDN: " Use the Help Integration Wizard to Add a Help Collection " results in the selected page (and only the selected page) being shown in the ToC. The rest of the ToC doesn't show up merged into the main ToC, even though the content is merged into the index. I suspect this may be because the HxS file is lacking a single topmost node - although I have no way of knowing: the Help2 integration system was obviously designed by someone who hate ...Show All

  I'm in the process of building a Guidance Automation Package for a multi-project solution.

• Visual FoxPro appending data into an existing DBF with an autoincrement field

  I have a table called special.dbf. It has a autoincrement field. I would like to append records to this file. The autoincrement field always defaults to zero and produces an error message. Any suggestions on how to append or insert records would be helpful. I would like to append using a text file or excel file from MS Access table Or import directly from Access to FoxPro. If you use insert from then you don't need drop part (or if autoinc is not in text file). 0,"field1", "field2" was a sample line from text file, it is not part of code. Insert from wouldn't help for memo, where would it come from in the first place Memo fields are not populated using "append from ..." a text file. ...Show All
