• Visual Studio Tools for Office How to uninstall Outlook Addin

  Hi, I have created one outlook addin project in which I have created one button named "Update database" which get added to outlook toolbar after installing. Now I have also created installer file for this project. When I install this installer to my system, I get the respected button into my outlook But when i uninstall this addin, Still I have the same button into outlook. I want this button should disappear after uninstalling. Thank you You need to explicitly remove the button from the toolbar. The way many Add-ins handle this is to remove the button when they unload (and create it again - if it's not present (which can happen if the app crashes) - when they load). ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Hints on implementing a custom control for histogram needed

  I want to create a custom control that just displays a histogram and has events when I move the mouse over it in order to display the value in a tooltip or in a status bar. So I need some advise as what would be the best way to do this At the moment I have a class derived from Control (to use it in the main window xaml file and for easy databinding of the real histogram) that contains a child that is derived from FrameworkElement which then contains the VisualCollection with the histogram lines. Is this OK I think I need a canvas in my control so do I put the canvas in the XAML template of the control or create it completely in the code behind file As the histogram can contain up to 4096 columns I wonder if I can just put so many lines the ...Show All

• Windows Search Technologies ISearchQueryHelper in vb.net

  I'd really like to convert from an AQS query to the SQL command required by WDS 3.0. I have found lots of info about doing this from C# by using a file from the Vista SDK called SEARCHAPI.TLB but (a) I can't find a copy (b) I don't know how to use such files in VB.NET. I have found that if I include a reference to the MSNLNamespaceMgr.dll file from the WDS program directory then my vb object browser can find me the following: Function GenerateSQLFromUserQuery (ByVal pszQuery As String ) As String Member of: MSNLNamespaceMgrLib . ISearchQueryHelper but I don't know how to get any further than that. I tried the following code, based on the c# examples I found, but it fails: Dim manager As New MSNLNamespaceMgrLib ...Show All

• Internet Explorer Development How do I access Document object for a remote IE browser window?

  Hello- My company submits financial information to an accounting firm every month via a secure web site html form. This html form is quite long, and I would like to write an application that will automatically fill in this html form with the financial numbers which I can programatically pull out of our database. I imagine that the way it might work is that I navigate to this web page in an IE window, and then run my custom app to populate the form. I assume that I will need to access the IE Document object to do this. My question is: How do I retrieve this IE Document object from another app I understand that there is an IE toolbar API that has access to the Document object. However, I would preferably like to develop the app as a ...Show All

• Visual C# Problems with function ?

  Hi There is a problem I am facing at the moment. I have a base class called A; I have 2 classes that inherits from it . B and C. I have a method with 3 overloads . 1 for A ,1 for B and 1 for C. public void DoSomeWork(A a){} .... On calling the method It goes to the proper one by its parameter. Now, My problem is that I am using a factory to get the proper Object for a specific case and I then assign it in an A object (base class). I then want to send it to the method and expects it to go to the proper one but it goes to the one with A no matter the type returned. I always get "in A1" //Base class A1 a2 = new A2 (); //Call the proper function DoSomeWork(a1); public void DoSomeWork( A1 a ...Show All

• Visual Basic Synchronize settings button isn't working

  Using VS2005 version 8.0.50727.42 RTM, I am experimenting with application settings to add some persistance to a VB windows app. Changing the scope of a setting from User to Application leads to a Configuration system failed to initialize exception at run time. I eventually realized that the Synchronize button on the Settings tab isn't working. It always gives me a dialog No user.config files were found in any of the following locations: [OK] No locations appear to have been searched, even though an out-of-date user.config file does exist in ...\Local Settings\Application Data\... Of course I can manually delete the user.config file to work around this but it would be nice if I could get the Synchronize button to do it for me. Do ...Show All

• Visual C# Waiting for a method to execute.

  Hi, I imagine that this is a fairly common question. I have two methods that I would like to run in succession, i.e, let the latter wait for the former to execute. Logic tells me that a better approach would be the use of threads, but alas, I am stuck. For clarity: Help.Call(); //wait for Help.Call() to execute Proceed.PlanB(); Thanks. Hi, that is the normal behaviour. One thread executes one operation after the other. The opposite would be more work: if you want Call and PlanB executed simultaneously, then you would need two threads, each executing one method call. Do you have any code which makes you think, code is executed simultaneously -- SvenC ...Show All
