• .NET Development Errors after successful install of .net framework 3.0

  I am a consumer, not a programmer.    On 1/29/2007 I went to Microsoft Update and got two items from the software(optional) pane, they were as listed below.  After I got the updates the computer did not ask me to reboot as it had advised me I might have to before the update.  So after the successful download and install of these items and waiting a good while after the Microsoft Update website said success and I had closed it, I rebooted the computer using the start menu restart.  After the restart the computer would not access the internet whatsoever, even though my ISP said I had a valid IP number and my IP phone from Comcast was working fine.  I called McAfee because their software was not able to run and t ...Show All

• Windows Forms Listbox to show options from a related table

  On a Windows form, I have textboxes to show data rows of a main table. The main table has a foreign key to a minor table which is a list of status values ("Pending", "In Progress" and "Done"). The object is to display the status in a listbox or combobox. I want to know how to do this. Some notes: 1) The code to set up connections, DataAdapters, CommandBuilders, bindingsources, Datasets, etc works fine. 2) I would like to set up any constructs in code rather than with a wizard. 3) Unless I have to I want to avoid creating the relationship between the tables in the wizard. 4) I get the sense that one Dataset can access and update both tables, but I don't know how to tell the dataset about additional tables. ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista How can my process best tell if it is running elevated?

  Hi all, I asked this in another forum also but thought I'd give it a shot here. I'd like to programmatically determine whether the process my dll is running in has had its authority elevated. I think I remember having read about an API call that would tell me this, but I can't find that doc anymore. This info will help me do the right/safe thing in an app that MS would say should be split into two parts: non-admin and admin -- but that I do not have time to split. I see there is an entry point exported from kernel32.dll called "CheckElevation", but I see no doc on this anywhere. Thanks! Yes, this stuff is defined in the Vista version(s) of the SDK - and the latest is the one that came with Vista ...Show All

• Visual Studio install errors in the vs2005.net,help

  have errors in install vs2005.net, show "error 1335", help!! in the logs produced, is there any mention of error 1305 The reason I am asking is because those errors relate to bad media/damaged media which also can cause the 1335 error afterwards. I would also suggest to do the following and see if it helps: Try to create an image of the DVD/CD using something like say, Nero. Then mount this image using a virtual CD tool like MSVCD and mount this image on it, then run setup from the mounted image try to place the media into another CD/DVD drive and install it from that, if you have one available Disable AV software as sometimes it can cause to such errors during installation. see if you can install it to ano ...Show All

• SQL Server Export to Excel file too large

  I can't find the answer to these problems. I'm using SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition. I have a report with 15,036 rows and about 15 columns. It utilizes a table and a report header and footer. One column has data containing hyperlinks to another report. 1) When I export this report to Excel, the result is 14.2MB file. Why is this file so huge, and how can I make it smaller 2) Is there anything I can do to prevent the inclusion of the hyperlinks in the exported Excel file Thanks, Rosie Excel has some internal compression techniques that SSRS is not able to take advantage of. If you resize the file in Excel, you might see that it gets smaller. There is no specific option but you can make the hyperlink URLs base ...Show All

• Windows Forms Hosting Windows Form Designer, BeginUpdate/EndUpdate methods?

  I'm hosting the Windows Form Designer, and I'm programattically setting position (for undo/redo). when I do this, the contol visibly moves first horizontally, then vertically to its final position. I was wondering if there is any way (like the BeginUpdate/EndUpdate methods on some controls) that I can delay redrawing until I've bade all changes to the controls properties If possible, I don't want to have to inherit and override paint methods. You should be able to call SuspendLayout() / ResumeLayout(False) on the control you're designing. If that isn't suspending things enough, you could try using designer transactions (some controls delay updates while a transaction is open.) Try this (VB code): Sub ...Show All
