• Windows Forms .Net component for VS2005 UI

  Does anyone know how to build a user interface that is like the IDE style in Visual Studio 2005 What components emulate the tear-away panes and hiding toolbars I noticed that Rapid SQL 7.4 uses the exact same interface so I know that there must be an API out there somewhere. I've seen a few components that attempt to copy the interface but I've never seen anything that explained how to implement the interface like MS does. I'm new to .Net and so if this is a completely retarded question then please forgive me and be merciful/generous with your knowledge. Thanks, I used to work for the company that made Rapid SQL. That product was built with Visual C++ and used the BCG toolkit extensions for MFC: htt ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Broken functionality in CTP4

  Hi I have two databases where one is a copy of parts of the other. When I do schema compare there are therefore quite a few tables that I would like to skip the creation of. So I try to change the Update Action to Skip for these tables. What happens is that I can't! The Update Action stays on Create. The only thing that do happen is that Create is grayed out and the Error List window pops up showing no errors(! ). Tried to pin the err window in case there was an event that got swallowed in the IDE but this had no affect. This used to work in CTP3, except from the annoying fact that you couldn't select multiple objects and skip them all. Brumlemann Update: A few of the tables listed actually have their Upd ...Show All

• Windows Forms DataGridView getting index of the entering row

  I have a DataGridView with say for e.g. two rows. User currently have selected the row 1 (index 0)..when they select the next row what event should I use to find the next row's index (row 2 index which should be 1)  I tried using RowEnter event of the datagridview along with MyDataGridView.CurrentRow.Index which is giving me the index of the first row not the entering  second row. To find the next row *when* a user selects a row you could try, assuming your DataGridView is called dataGridView1: if (dataGridView1.SelectedRows[0].Index + 1 < dataGridView1.Rows.Count) { int nextRow = dataGridView1.SelectedRows[0].Index + 1; } It might be a cheap styl ...Show All

• Visual Studio How can I check with which version of Visual Studio was an executable created ?

  A PC has three executables - one built with Visual C++ 6 and which runs properly, one built with Visual C++ 8 and which does not execute due to missing file / configuration error, and a third which there is a doubt whether it was build with v6 or v8. Is there a way to check the 3rd executable to see with which version of Visual C++ was it built Alternatively, how can I check whether Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package was installed or not I recommend that you ask these questions on the Visual C++ General forum: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowForum.aspx ForumID=29&SiteID=1 ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Duplicating a socket to a service....

  This is yet another question about passing information from a client application to a service application. What we need to do is pass a socket from a client to a service, and the problem is that this fails because the client can no longer open up a process handle to the service process. Winsock is designed in a way where the client must duplicate the socket to the target process - thus the service can't just do the duplicate itself. You pass in a process ID on the client side, and get back a data blob that gets passed via some IPC mechanism to the target process, and then the target process calls WSASocket() with the data blob. So the question is, how is a client application supposed to duplicate a socket to a service process I filed a b ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions 'IndexOutOfRangeException was unhandled' ??

  Database1DataSet myInstance = new Database1DataSet (); object Timo = myInstance.Tables[ "Table1" ].Rows[0].ItemArray[0]; so this is my code (still :p) but it says 'IndexOutOfRangeException was unhandled' but why does it say that error its not under 0, the number is 0 so is the first row (cant be too high), and what do they mean with: 'Make sure data column names are correct' where do I need to type data column names pls help me :< thx in advance Hi, I'm guessing your table has no column, or, more likely, your data table has no rows. In you're code, you're assuming both - that your table has at least one column (that's probably true) and that it contains at least one ...Show All

• SQL Server real time progress bar

  The ETL processing for my project will be deployed as part of a larger application which is operated by non-technical users. Therefore I want to provide real-time feedback to the user on progress, errors, etc., using windows standard GUI interface objects and style- for example a progress bar. The "designer" of course does some of this but there won't be any designer in our deployed application (and SSIS designer is neither intended to be used by, nor appropriate for, non-technical users anyway). Now that I have the ETL logic working, it's time to tackle this UI requirement. I am thinking one way to do this is to start a script task to run in parallel with the main ETL processing, open a winform in that task that has various ...Show All

• Visual Studio program read from stdin during debugging?

  hello, is there a way to pipe to a program that is running in the debugger I’m writing an interactive command-line console utility. Presently, I simulate user input by placing the commands in a file and piping them to my utility as follows: type usercmds.txt | myutility This works fine from the command line. Under the debugger, however, I must type each command to myutility myself in the debugger’s console window. Is there a better way In the meantime I suppose I will add the code to read from the usercmds.txt file directly so I can get on with my project. But it would be cool to be able to pipe in from more complex arrangements in the future. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Iron Python Integration Issue

  I recently downloaded and installed the IronPython beta from this link ( http://www.codeplex.com/Wiki/View.aspx ProjectName=IronPython ) on the Microsoft Robotics Website. I then attempted to integrate IronPython into my Visual Studio Development environment as per Aaron Marten's instructions ( http://blogs.msdn.com/aaronmar/archive/2006/02/16/533273.aspx ) but I ran into seemingly insurmountable problems. Marten's blog said: "Open Visual Studio 2005 and (assuming you installed the SDK to the default location) open the solution at "C:\Program Files\Visual Studio 2005 SDK\2006.04\VisualStudioIntegration\Samples\IronPythonIntegration". Then, it should simply be a matter of hitting F5 for Build & Debug. This will laun ...Show All

• .NET Development C# - What is the Big Whoop?

  Hello, Sorry if this is the wrong place for this question. I have been directed here from the question asking interface in Visual Studio 2005, under the Help menu. Recently, a headhunter told me .Net, especially C#, is all the rage. I don't understand why this is the case. My perception is most development these days is going to aim for a browser-based (i.e., 'web') interface for end users. That makes me think the most popular uses of Visual Studio 2005 would be for building ASP.Net data access applications, which points toward Visual Basic.Net, not C#, at least in my confused mind. Do I have this all mixed up If you are working with C#, could you write a few words about what you are using it for This would be extremely helpf ...Show All
