• Windows Forms Problem with MainMenu and Minimum Size of form

  I did a search online and on this forum and couldn't find a solution anywhere. I have a form with a MainMenu control and I wanted to set the form's minimum size. After setting a minimum size and starting my form I notice that its height has increased. It has added extra space at the bottom. I've tried changing the minimum size and the size of the form around but it seems to always add around 25 pixels of height to the bottom of the form if I have a MainMenu control and a minimum height for the form. Its a minor problem, I know, but I am interested if anyone has a solution This user has not been on since the post...I recommend that you reconstitute the issue question describing the situation better... and ...Show All

• Windows Forms OnClick preceding OnEnter

  VS 2005 / XP Pro -- both with all service packs It is my understanding that the OnEnter event should precede most (all ) other events for a control but... Our application has a form on which is a Tab-control. We load a number of controls dynamically onto this Tab-control -- ComboBoxes, CheckListBoxes, and TextBoxes. We haven't checked all the Tabs, but on at least one of the Tabs the OnClick/OnMouseClick event precedes the OnEnter event for the ComboBoxes and CheckListBoxes (but not the TextBoxes). Controls that are added at design-time on other Forms' Tab-controls have the events fire in the expected order -- OnEnter and then OnClick/OnMouseClick. Is my understand of the sequence of events erroneous or can someone g ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Publishing to install on offline computer

  I need to install my program on a computer that doesn't have the internet. When I went to publish it I changed the Install Mode to "The application is available offline as well" but when I went to install it, it tried to connect to the internet to install .NET Framework 2.0. So I checked the prerequisites and .NET Framework 2.0 was checked. I unchecked it but then when I went to install it, I got a message asking me which program to use to open the setup file. Anyone know what I can do Because ClickOnce is so ridiculously simple... it leaves out a great make things, one of which is including redistributable files, instead it uses a bootstrapper to try to install those files if they do not alread ...Show All

• Visual C# form closing problem

  I could not invent a realistic title for the post since I do not know how to name that object. On the top border of every form there is a small button on the right that closes the form. It is next to Maximize/Minimize button. I wish I knew a special term for it. I want to prevent my form from having the option of being closed by pressing on it. I want to always close it via a custom close button. How can I do it The reason for this is as follows. I have a stream of records that accumulate in memory and when the number of rows in a DataTable reaches a certain threshold a portion thereof is being sent to SQL Server. About 2000 records remain in memory. When the process of downloading ends I may still have some records that are unsav ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Adding FxCopCmd.exe to Post-build event command line options

  Hi, I have followed the steps for VS 2005 integration at this page: http://www.gotdotnet.com/team/fxcop/Docs/FxCopCmd/FxCopCmd_VS.html and everything has worked correctly. I wanted to push the integration a step further. So I opened one of my project's properties and under Build Events / Post-build event command line I entered this information: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft FxCop 1.35\FxCopCmd.exe" /p:"D:\Astrum Development\XStrata\Vega Nickel\AstrumFxCop.FxCop" /c When I build my project, after my project has been built, it starts FxCop, performs the analysis it tries to write the error message, but instead the output windows shows an error message saying : Cannot load PDB file. The results from FxCop aren't displayed, and oftentimes thi ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions array for IP address range

By running this and viewing its results, you can isolate most of the installation issues with a customization. In the absence of more data, I'll go ahead and close this thread at this point.
