• Visual Studio Express Editions Help with moving projects from different versions.

  Hello. I'm working with Visual Basic in school, but I've got a problem. At home I'm using Visual Studio 2005 (The Visual Basic part of it), but at my school they got an older version.. My problem is that if I create a form in Visual Studio 2005, it splits the form into a form1.vb file and an form1.design.vb file. And because of that, I can't open it at my school. I'm not sure of what version they use at the school, but I think 2003. Are there any way to save the forms as just a form1.vb in Visual Studio 2005 Thanks in advance Albin Nilsson First, click the Show All Files icon in Solution Explorer, open the node next to the form and double-click the Designer.vb file. Type Ctrl+A, Ctrl+X to cut all the tex ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Workflow Roles and Persistence

  Scenario: When a user logs into our application, a list of tasks is presented to the user. This list is dependent on the all the workflows that the user is assigned to, the current state of the workflow (we are using a state machine workflow) and the event(message) that a user can raise depending on his role.I can currently load all the workflow instances from SQLPersistence. I am also able to get the current state of the instance and what events(messages) that they are waiting for. Problem: I would like to get from the instance which roles can actually raise that particular event. So that I can only show tasks pertaining to that event for a particular user. Since the roles associated with particular event can be dynamic I would like to ...Show All

• Visual C# Write text over images...

I have the coordinates already... Thanks Depending upon how it's going to be spit out. For example let's suppose you have a .aspx page that spits out an image such as <img src="DisplayImageWithText.aspx text=I+got+pwnt" /> In this case you would [retty much do the same exact code except this time we take advantage of one of the Save overload methods which allows us to save directly to a Stream. protected void Page_Load( object sender, EventArgs e) { Response.Clear(); Bitmap TmpImage = Write ...Show All

VSTO 2005 SE installed on top of VSTO or VS2005 professional give you additional ability to develop Excel/Word ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System solution as the topLevel of

  I was wondering if i could create a pure 'folder' in team system version control in which to throw documents, schemas, workflows, etc. My current understanding is that you need to create an empty solution file, then a folder containing the documents underneath. -- is this correct is there way to do this w/o creating the solution file if not, i'm leaning toward using sharepoint for these sorts of items, which may be what the designers intended thanks! Hello, You can add any documents to Version Control directly, using Source Control Explorer. The scenario you described is true if you want to use Solution Explorer (which seems a little awkward for me). However, Sharepoint has many advantages as store of the documents, so you ca ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista GetVersionEx weirdness on Vista. Please help

  I am calling GetVersionEx to get the windows version. I am using code sample provided at http://www.codeproject.com/win32/osdetect.asp . On WindowsXP it correctly returns 5 as the major version. But on Windows Vista, it returns 5 again instead of 6. Has anyone see this issue or any ideas why GetVersionEx returns incorrect value on Vista So far I have tried compiling with different settings of _WIN32_WINNT, reinstalled Vista just to be sure, tried to run this on a different Vista system with the same incorrect result. I also tried GetVersion instead of GetVersionEx too without success. Should I check for some registry keys or something I am stuck on this for more than a day now. Appreciate any help.
