  Hi, Is it possible to build the appln on WM 5.0 for pocket pc and then making it on the devices having Windows Mobile 2003 Help needed. as stated, it depends what you are wanting to access, it actually does depend on the .NET CF, since you will be using its features, unless you are doing P/Invoke. if features are unique to WM5.0 then of course it will not work on WM2003 since it is "unique" to WM5 ...Show All

• Windows Forms Hosting a Form within a Native app

  Hi, I'm busy trying to integrate a managed Form modeless dialog in an unmanaged native app. I'd like the dialog to maintain top-most behaviour, while allowing the user to access the main app underneath (thus the need for it being modeless.) I've looked around for a way to set my main application window as the parent for the hosted Form, but it doesn't seem obvious to me. Control.FromHandle(IntPtr) returns a null when I pass the main apps window handle. I don't really see how I can bind the handle to a NativeWindow and then use that as the parent for my Form. I just feel like I'm missing something reasonably obvious. Any suggestions I just tried using SetParent in win32 to assign the App Windows handle as the parent to t ...Show All

• SQL Server How does sql server determine order of cascade deletes to many tables

  If have the following scenario Table A Table B fk to Table A Table C fk to Table A fk to Table B - nullable Table A cascades to table b and Table A cascades to Table C. Table B then restricts to Table C to avoid circular reference. However, the way our data is configured, the restriction from B to C will never matter when deleting from A if Table C is always cascaded to first and then B. I have done a few tests and this appears to work. I haven't been able to find any info on this, so is this order something I can always rely on Yes. There is no way to define the delete cascade happens on C before on B. By implementing delete trigger on A, you have full control as to dele ...Show All

• Windows Forms Remove rows in datagridview and save the dataset xml file

  Hi, I made an even handler for removed rows in the datagridview. The datagridview gets its data from an xml file. When a row is removed in the datagridview, the row should be removed in the dataset as well. This is my event handler in constructor: this.grdTest.RowsRemoved += new DataGridViewRowsRemovedEventHandler(grdTest_RowsRemoved); This is the code in that event handler: void grdTest_RowsRemoved(object sender, DataGridViewRowsRemovedEventArgs e) { DataSet ds = new DataSet(); ds.ReadXml("Test.xml"); foreach (DataRow dr in ds.Tables[0].Rows) { string remove = dr["Row"].ToString(); DataRow[] temprows = ds.Tables[0].Select("Row = " + remove); if (temprows[0].RowStat ...Show All
