• Visual C++ VC++ project compiling slower on Visual Studio 2005

  We originally had our main application which consists of a single solution and 5 projects in Visual Studio 2003 Professional. There is a linear dependency between the projects (Project 5 depends on project 4 which depends on project 3 and so on). A full rebuild of the solution used to take approximately 15 minutes under VS2003. I used the build timer in VS. We recently moved to Visual Studio 2005 Professional because a separate internal tool we develop benefited from the use of OMP. Since the tool and our main application share some of the same projects, it required us to upgrade to VS2005 for both. We used the wizard conversion tool to convert from 2003 to 2005. Now a full rebuild of the main application takes approximately 25 minutes. Ag ...Show All

  Hello, Just got a new computer running Windows XP Pro.

• Windows Forms Sorting in DataGridView

  Hi : I have a DataBound DataGridView, one of the columns is a datagridviewcomboboxcolumn linked to another bindingsource. I want to sort by that column but based on the display value, not on the id value. I've been searching a way to do this, I havent been able to find it. I cant imagine that this is not possible. Could someone point me in the right direction. Thanks in advance Leonardo I also came across this problem, and with the solution of Ken, which partly does the job I wanted, I found an even simpler solution. I've now adjusted my Select query for my sqladapter to give me back not only the inteded table, but also the values of the child table I want to show. So imagine yo ...Show All

• Windows Forms Using the WebBrowser control's DocumentCompleted event with AJAX pages

  Im trying to scrape information from a site that uses ajax to dynamically display search information.

Any suggestion Please show any code examples in C# if at all possible since that is what I am using. Thanks!!!

• Visual Studio Tools for Office VSTO Excel: Unable to read a range into an array

  This kind of code used to work in VBA. Can any one take a look and see what i cant get this to work. I am trying to get all the values in a range into an array. Dim range As Excel.Range range = Globals.Sheet1.get_Range( "A1" , "D4" ) Dim arr() As System.Array arr = CType (range.Cells.Value, System.Array) // Error - Unable to cast object of type 'System.Object[,]' to type 'System.Array[]' Hi, Your problem is that you are declaring your arr variable as an array of System.Arrays but your range represents a single array (albeit of multiple dimensions). As a result, that cast will correctly fail. To resolve the problem, just declare a single (non arra ...Show All

• Windows Forms Visual Studio 2005 Service Pack 1

  What I want to know is when can we expect the desperatly needed service pack 1 for Visual Studio 2005 I've had so many errors so far when working with the Windows Forms designer, it is not only VERY frustrating and wasting my valuable time, but, it is also embarrsing when my projects and clients are being delayed because of a low quality tool. I expected higher quality standards from Microsoft! Don't get me wrong, I love .Net and especially version 2. It's just getting so frustrating to experience these errors in Viusal Studio and then red about them on the web to find out that I'm not the only one experiencing them and nothing is being done so far to come out with fixes or a Service Pack!

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) How to generate XSD from custom XAML serialization

  This is not really a WPF question but since XAML has been associated to WPF, I'll ask it here. If there is a more appropriate forum, please let me know. I am using the new XAML serialization that is really wonderful. So I wrote few classes (organized in an object model tree) in an assembly and I persist them in XAML. One of the namespaces inside the serialization is the clr-namespace that fully describes the metadata. So I was wondering why XSD.EXE doesn't use those information to create a full-featured schema . I think that the information inside clr-namespace should be more than sufficient to create a very precise XSD schema file. Any chance to see such utility in the RTM TIA, Raffaele Since we are talking about M ...Show All

  I used to code in pascal, cobol, assembly, basic, etc, but not C. From: Your First Game: Microsoft XNA Game Studio Express in 2D following along and doing the first build, I get the error above. I did not think I was calling the 3d engine only the 2d. I cannot find any help on the error, where to look, etc, except what is in the error window when you cursor over it.

• Windows Forms set flag to listbox item that retrieved from registry

  hi all, i have a list box conatins list of items retrieved from registry. and i have to add some new items to list manually. after that i have to parse accordingly. i need to put flag to items those i got from registry. Note: there should not be difference in the visibility of items . thnaks and regards ranadheer Hi, There are multiple possibilities. You could keep track of the items from the registry by using an external data structure: List< string > m_fromRegistry = new List< string >(); if (m_fromRegistry.Contains( listbox.SelectedItem ) ) { //from registry } else { //not from reg } You could also create a ListBoxItem class: class ListBoxItem { private strin ...Show All

• SQL Server HideMemberIF: Parent vs. Only Child w/ Parent

  Even after reading the SQL BOL definitions, I'm unable to actually demonstrate a real-world difference between the "Never", "ParentName" and "Only Child w/ ParentName" settings for the HideMemberIF property with my multi-level hierarchy on it's ragged dimension. Specifically, my hierarchy simply will not hide a member named the same as it's parent, when viewed in VS's Dimension browser window, regardless of the HIdeMemberIF setting chosen. I've not yet loaded SQL 2K5's SP1, and here are my questions: (1) Could it be that VS's dimension browser and/or cube browser do not support the HideMemberIF property (2) If so, has that changed with SP1 This is very encouraging ...Show All
