This is driving me to dispair and i am ready to dump the thing but then i remembered i need IE for my website and other websites to view HTML and normal view as mo ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Deploying CF Project to run using Full Framework for Desktop

  Hi everyone, I currently have a CF project in VS2005, but I would like to know how to change the project to target the full .NET Framework instead. My goal is to have my CF app run on the desktop. I have searched for similar questions, and somebody mentioned that a Deploy to Desktop feature was in the VS2005 Betas but was removed for RTM. Supposedly the feature is slated to reappear in the VS2005 SP1, but I couldn't find it in the latest Beta of SP1. Does anybody have any suggestions Thanks! Kirupa You can run NETCF executables on desktop as is unless particular executable uses any NETCF specific classes or P/Invokes CE specific DLL(s). Attempt to run such application on desktop would result in TypeLoadException since NETCF ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) gridview

  Hello, I have a bunch of listviews that have the exact same shape but use different itemssources. So I thought I would try to share the gridview between the listviews. I put the gridview the resources and tried to use it but as it turns out two listviews can't share the same gridview. I was wondering is there a way around this Or do I need to wrap the listview in a user control Thanks Houman Hi Lee, Yes that's exactly what I mean, they have the same set of columns. And the columns have the same displaymemeber binding. I have 2 list views (source list view, target list view) and two buttons (add, remove). When I click the add button the selected elements from source list view is mov ...Show All

• Visual C# Picking at random, with varied probabilities

  One part of a program that I'm writing requires me to pick an object at random out of a collection. Each object has a different weight (probability), currently stored as a Double, associated with it, and the number of objects varies. The total probability, 1.0, is equal to the sum of the weights of all the objects in the collection. Is there a commonly used, efficient algorithm for picking random objects in this situation Currently, the only one I can think of (and this is pretty tedious): Load the keys and weights of the collection's objects into structures inside an ArrayList. Sort the ArrayList in ascending order, by weight. Add on another value (CumulativeWeight) to each structure that represents the sum of all the weights up to and ...Show All

• SQL Server MDX count customers with turnover over x dollar

  Hello Sirs, the subject might sound weird, sorry for that. Here is the the correct question: I have a Cube "Sales" with various dimensions and measures. To get a distinct count on my customers I added a new cube "DCCustomer" with the same dimensions as "Sales" and a distinct count in the numeric field "CostumerID" as the only measure. After that I combined the two Cubes to a Virtual Cube in Analysis Services 2000 to get both the measures of "Sales" and the distinct count measure "DCCustomer" from "DCCustomer". Now, I would like to have a distinct count of customers that have not only produced turnover but turnover above e.g. 150 $. What would be the MDX-Code ...Show All

• Windows Forms DataGridView Datasource property

  ArrayList Ips=c1.getIPs(); dataGridView1.DataSource = Ips; The getIps returns an arraylist with count 1 the content of arraylist 0th element is 'Pencil'. but in grid its displaying the length of string i.e 6 rather than displaying Pencil.What should i do to display the content of arraylist rather than the length. regards DataGridView columns are bound to properties of the object, contained in the list. String only has one property (Length), so I don't think that's possible with the string datatype. One more thing: have you considered using generic List<string> instead of ArrayList Andrej ...Show All

• Visual Studio Brace Matching Limitations in MPF

  Hi, I've got a problem with the MPF and brace matching. BraceMatch and TripleMatch are private classes in the MPF. That is not a problem if your language is like C# and other Microsoft languages and there is not need to extend the brace match mechanism, but what about languages that have four or more parts. In Eiffel there is the loop construct: <Loop> ::= from <Compound> until <Expression> [ invariant <Invariant> ] loop [ variant <Variant> ] <Compound> end ; I cannot implement QuadMatch because BraceMatch is not accessible from other external assemblies. In addition I cannot override Source.GetPairExtends to handle quad matching because I cannot author MatchQuad and ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Is there a way to compact a database through VB Express?

  I have an application with an Access database as the source of the data for my application. I know that within Access you can compact a database. But is there a way programmatically within VB Express to compact the database If possible, I would like to avoid calling an Access command as some of my users might not have Access installed on their computers. Also, what about a routine that when a user clicks on a button it will allow the user to save a backup copy of the database Thanks, John I haven't tried this yet, but in your example, you rename the file to something else. Is it possible to compact it to the same name If not, then I will need some way to replace the old file so the program reco ...Show All

• Windows Search Technologies Failed to remove the old catalog

  I uninstalled the Office 2007 beta and just installe dthe latest version from MSDN (RTM). After starting Outlook it said that it required WDS 3.0 (RTW) so I nstalled that. Now I get this in the event log: The Windows Search Service has failed to remove the old catalog. Internal error <0,0x80070003>.

  We were looking at some scenarios where as a device developer you had VS 2005 Beta 2 on your machines. Then you decided to un-install Beta 2 and install RC candiate. There are a few things you should be aware of. 1. If you had installed the DMA Transport Update , please make sure remove that before you un-install anything else to clean your machine. We are also in the process of adding removal of this Patch to the un-install tool that VS Setup team has been working on. 2. You would also need to clear your old data store and saved state. Here are some symptoms of having older files on your machine. 1. Error message as soon as the Device Emulator starts Failed to open the VPC Network Driver.
