• Windows Forms Problem with a customized TextBox

  Hi, I've created a customized textBox which I can drag in a PictureBox (besides other functionality that works almost perfectly). But when I move my control it doesn't paint itself as it should. It makes a kind of flick. At first, I tried to solve it doing a double-buffer; but I didn't get anything, it worked in the same way. I don't know what I have to do to make it function well. Here, you have my code: public class MyTextBox : TextBox { private bool bLeftDown; private SizeF sizef; Point previousPoint; PictureBox container; public MiEtiqueta( PictureBox screen) { this .ReadOnly = true ; bIzqPulsado = false ; this .AutoSize = true ; this .AcceptsReturn = true ; //this.M ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Can convert Winforms to WPF

  I haven't used WPF yet, so I apologize in advance if these are stupid questions. Is there a way to convert Winforms application to a WPF application Is there any ability to interoperate between Winforms and WPF Thanks! > Is there a way to convert Winforms application to a WPF application No. Those two UI platforms are very different and there is no app which converts a WinForms app to a WPF app. Of course, this will not prevent you from reusing any business/DAL/logging/Ioc/etc libraries you use in WinForms. > Is there any ability to interoperate between Winforms and WPF Yes.

• SQL Server Creating Time Dimension for seconds

  I'm creating analysis cubes on data that needs to reflect it's distribution over time during a 4 hour period. I'd like to create a Time Dimension for "Every 15 seconds" I've already got a DIM_Time table that includes actual event times (down to milliseconds) Do I just need to create fields on that data for the 0:15 block that the particular event falls in, and create records for every 0:15 even if there isn't a related row in the measures table So that...

• Windows Forms Drag outside window and get drop path

  Hi,  Im trying to find out how i can get the path of a drop when you drag an item off the form and drop into a folder or desktop. Im using C# if that makes any difference. Same as lets say winrar where you drag a file out and it extracts it into the location you dropped it. Thanks for any help,     -Dave It is the other application, the one that created the window onto which your dropped the object, that gets the drop notification. That would be the Windows Shell. Writing Shell drag and drop handlers requires C++, it cannot be done in C# or any other .NET language. This is a technical limitation of the shell that probably won't be resolved for a while. Here's a good project ...Show All

• .NET Development Primary key collision

  I am rather new to the web development but is currently working on a small project that would store the data on the production office output. As the part of it, the system will provide a form to insert the order placed. 1.The order is intended to have a unique OrderID key and would store several items with their respective qtys under the same OrderID. 2.This means that there will be two tables in the DB - Order and Order_Item in order to tie the order items to the orderID. I would be using a stored procedure to insert the data in the DB. 3. There is a need to identify repetitve orders within a certain period of time (i.e. 2 weeks) in order to avoid the duplicates.

• Visual Studio UML Reverse Engineering C++ With Visio 2007 / Visual Studio 2005

  Hi, I have had a looked around the forums, but alas I am still none the wiser! I am running VS 2005 Professional and Visio 2007 Professional -  and every time I try to reverse engineer a C++ project it will only open Visio with a blank document. Any suggestions/advice would be greatly appreciated. :) [Please Note: I have already tried repairing both installs :( ]   Hi, Visio does not automatically lay out the reverse engineered classes on the design surface. The reverse engineered classes are populated in the "Model Explorer". You'll have to drag and drop the classes from the Model Explorer to the design surface to view the classes.

• .NET Development avoiding timeout exception for methods that take a TimeSpan

  I am a newbie to both .NET and MSMQ and I simply can't understand why anyone would design an API where the common case is to throw an exception! For example: MessageQueue queue = new MessageQueue(...); try { Message msg = queue.Receive(new TimeSpan(0, 0, 1)); ... } catch (MessageQueueException mqe) { ... } throws an exception after one second if there is no message on the queue. Why not just return null The return type is a Message, you should be able to figure out if the Message is null that you had a timeout... It seems pretty wasteful to throw an Exception. Moving on, what would be the result of this code : private static Message receiveMessage(MessageQueue mq) { IAsyncResult asynchResult = mq.BeginReceive(new TimeS ...Show All

• SQL Server accessing result of sp_tables

  When I run exec sp_tables it give me a "list" of tables in databases. In fact the result is a table where one of the columns contains the database table names. It is no problem to access it in a client application but I need to access that column and verify existance of a certain table in SQL Server's user stored procedure . So far anything I tried did not work. FETCH pertains to a cursor and I cannot declare a cursor for this command. The only thing I got so far was @@ROWCOUNT but it is of no use for me. Perhaps there is another way to verify if a table exists from inside a stored procedure . I have the same problem in terms of verifying existence of a user stored procedure from inside another user stored procedure but if I g ...Show All
