• Visual Studio Express Editions Form.TomMost Property didn't work correctly on visual Basic 2005

  Hi every body in visual basic 2005 ,the form.TopMost Property didn't work correctly in visula basic 2005. I set TopMost property to ture,but my form lost focus when user clicks on another form. I Need this information to complete my job. I have a few items which are always on top (ObjectDock, for example), which sometimes disappear to the background. Usually I have to 'reset' it to be back on top. It doesn't use the .NET framework, so I guess the issue is that always on top is unreliable. I believe that there are probably some applications which use the always on top mechanism to bring a form to the foreground, which messes up forms which truly need to be always on top. I guess you can simply ...Show All

• SQL Server Managing Scheduled Jobs from Management Studio Express

  I'm working on a backup solution for my company. Right now we have three servers in three locations running SQL Server 2000. For testing purposes, I created a scheduled job on one of these servers. It worked fine but I'd like to tweak the job some, tinker with the timing and save locations. I'm using Management Studio Express on my laptop to remotely work with these databases but I can't seem to find a decent way to work with existing jobs. Am I missing something or does SSMSE lack the "manage jobs" functionality SSMSE only exposes functionality that is available in SQL Express. Since Express doesn't include Agent, SSMSE doesn't include the ability to manage Agent jobs. The SQL 2005 Feature Pack includes some DTS 2000 ad ...Show All

• SQL Server Can I Debug Remote SQL Server 2000 Stored Procedure in Visual Studio 2005

  I can debug an SQL Server 2005 stored procedure in Visual Studio 2005 from a local database (e.g. AdventureWorks). However, when I try to debug a stored procedure on a remote server running SQL Server 2000 the debug process is not accessible (i.e. I can choose 'Step Into Stored Procedure' and it seems to run but I cannot debug it). Am I trying to do something that just can't be done Is this a compatibility issue between Visual Studio 2005 and SQL Server 2000 Or am I missing something Thanks for any advice on this. Richard As far as I can see, Server Explorer in Visual Studio does not give me a 'Modify' option. It gives me a 'Step into Stored Procedure' option that does not seem work fo ...Show All

• SQL Server Merge replication - examples for custom conflict resolvers?

  I have gone through BOL and various online resources including this one and I can't find any examples on how to use custom conflict resolvers to generate a result row which is a combination of the rows to be merged. BOL says it can be done, but suitable examples are missing. I have found various posts requesting examples from up to a year ago, but can see no replies with relevant information In particular I would like to see examples of 1) A stored procedure based custom conflict resolver 2) A business logic handler written in VB .Net Here's hoping aero1 Hi, "Insert conflicts.

• Visual Basic “My” Name Space and Violation of OOP Concepts!

  I am an old VB programmer; I started using this powerful language since it was “4” years old! In my MSC program I have studied a complete Java course with its “new” O bject O riented P rogramming (OOP) capabilities. I faced no problems to “absorb” these new concepts; and in a short time I became a “deeply” Object Oriented Programmer. Unfortunately I found that Java lost a big efficiency of VB 6; this is, specially, true when Java runs in windows platform .VB 6, itself, misses a lot of Java OOP capabilities. I did not wait a very long time till the news began talking about VB.Net! When VB.net was first introduced in early 2002; I faced no problems becoming familiar with it; VB.net combines the powerfulness of VB 6 and the OOP “ ...Show All

• Visual C++ Suspected with Rational Clearcase problem when using Visual Studio 2005

  Hi, I have posted on this problem I am having before, but I have learned more about the problem so here is an updated post on it. I am trying to build an application using Visual Studio 2005 on Windows XP SP2. The build is taking place on the Clearcase drive (M drive) in a normal view. The binary is built but fails when I try to use it with the following error: The system cannot execute the specified program. Using the depends.exe facility on the binary, I have found that the problem is that the dll MSVCP80.DLL is missing. Since the binary is being built using VC 8, this DLL is contained in the side-by-side Assembly Microsoft.vc80.crt, which is itself referenced by a manifest embedded within the binary. If this manifest cann ...Show All

• .NET Development DLL loaded twice

  Hi, I was looking at DLLS used by a process using ProcessSpy and found that the process has loaded two DLLs for few of the system dlls like Systsem.Drawing.Dll, System.Windows.Forms.Dll etc. For one of these DLLs the version is 0.0.0.0 and the other one has a valid version. Unfortunately, I can't add a snapshot of the window here. What I am wondering is, whether its pretty common to have this behavior or something is wrong in the taks, the way it is loading DLL. Thanks, -Brajesh Your guess might be right, as I see that the version 0.0.0.0 is being loaded from C:\windows\assembly\nativeimages1_v1.1.4322\system.windows.forms\1.0.5000.0__b77a5c561934e089_fa580ca7 and the other version is b ...Show All

• Visual C++ Private access

  Say if we ve certain private methods along with private data members and public methods. other than friend function is thr any other way we access these members(they being private only) directly. its one of the requirements in a project of mine. The real prob comes when accessing function. say we've classes ported to us in .obj format. then going for DMA using pointers is a risky n unreliable job. class x { private: void meth1 ( ) { cout<< "Meth1" ; } void meth2 ( ) { cout<< "meth 2" ; } } ; class xduplicate { public: void virtual meth1 ( ) ; void virtual meth2 ( ) ; } ; main ( ) { x obj; xduplicate *obj1; obj1= ( xduplicate * ) &obj; obj1->meth1 ( ) ; ...Show All

• Visual Basic COM+ Component registration for VB6 dll

  Hi, I am having a dll that forms a part of a COM+ application. I have changed a piece of code and not touched any of the method signatures, hoping not to destroy the compatability. I have replaced the existing dll with my new one and restarted IIS and COM+ services that use this dll. Should i have to register the dll again or will it work (should it work ) Please respond as this is under a hot discussion with my team.. Many Thanks and Best Regards, Franklin This is a tricky issue: theoretically if you do not change any public contracts (this includes method signatures, type names, etc) then you can replace the DLL with the new one and it should work. It's best to test this in a closed en ...Show All
