• Visual Basic Paste As Visual Basic

  Did anyone make the Paste As Visual Basic utility work It was described on this MSDN article: http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/06/02/PasteAs/default.aspx I was able to generate the setup wizard, install and activate the Addin. The command appeared on the menu. But when I click the command on the menu, nothing happens. The dialog box that should appear does not appear. If anyone could make it work and can give me some hint, I'd appreciate it. Thanks. Fernando Correia. Hi, I found out that 'Nothing happens' because the runtime failed to load PasteAsVB.dll when trying to create the form / dialog box. If you copy all DLLs in the installation directory (under "Program File ...Show All

  Hi, How can one get rid off the  Security Warning dialog box which pops up when you try to access a property of ContactItem in Outlook 2003 I'm using Visual Studio Team Suite Beta 2, Microsoft Outlook 11.0 Object Library, Outlook 2003. I've written a webform to get the list of contacts and display it in a listbox.

• Visual Studio Team System CA2225 OperatorOverloadsHaveNamedAlternates requires Compare on non-IComparable type

  I have a generic Set<T> class implementing a set. This class is IEquatable, but not IComparable. It overloads a few operators, including == and != (for set equality) and <, <=, >=, > (for subset/superset testing). FxCop fires warnings that I should provide provide a method named 'Compare' as a friendly alternate for operator op_LessThan, op_LessThanOrEqual, op_GreaterThanOrEqual, op_GreaterThan. But this type has only partial ordering, so that while I can determine if set A is "greater than" (superset of) set B, I cannot represent the comparison of both sets in a single flag 1/0/+1 (there would need to be a fourth option: not comparable). I admit that overloading these operators is maybe not a good idea, but gen ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Application.GetRemoteStream() break in RC1

  just moved an XBAP app from June CTP to RC1. the app is making an Application.GetRemoteStream() call to download a file to parse on the client (with a relative Uri). this used to work in June CTP, but RC1 returns a null (not a SecurityException). in fact, it fails in both partial trust and full trust. any idea what has changed Thanks, casey what i've found is that i can load the resource from the main XBAP assembly in our app, but the call fails from any other referenced assemblies. it always returns a null StreamResourceInfo for the other assemblies. i tried different ways to reference the path (e.g. /doc.xml vs doc.xml) ... still null.

• Visual C++ Using hotkeys to select edit boxes

  Hi Folks; I've looked (and asked) everywhere and my resource-finding skills have proven wanting. My question is simple as is the answer I assume. I have a number of hotkeys registered in a Win32 app. Hitting those keys should set the caret in one of several text fields though I haven't found anything that shows how to do that. Any suggestions This a standard feature of the IsDialogMessage function, so in a dialog this works if a static control with a text that contains a & before a standard character is placed just before the edit control. The the ALT key and this character is pressed IsDialogMessage moves the focus to the next edit control. So if you are using a modal Dialog this is the standard behaviour. ...Show All
