• Windows Forms Windows Installer Deployment

  I have developed an application in VB.Net and I now want to deploy it using the Windows installer. I have everything working except that I would like the user to be able to define their own folder in the Start/Programs menu. I have a default and have looked through the File System and User Interface editors. I have included a Usser Interface Text Dialog box to my installation script so the user can define their Program Menu folder or just select the default. I cannot get this to work. I have attempted to use the System folder properties with the custom folder in the File System section of my deployment project but all the install attempts to do is look for a network folder with the name entered by the user.

• Visual C# Object reference confusion.

  I have a simple function located in Class2.cs - an auxiliary file for Form1.cs (Console Application in VS2005). It take one parameter: string.

• Visual C++ Trivial Properties vs. Block Properties vs. Traditional get() set() methods = Compiler Bug!!!

  I already posted this thread but I am not getting any feedback. I would like someone from the C++/CLI development team to take a look at this. I have provided a sample of C++/CLI code and it's equivalent written in C#. This is about as simple a demontration as I can provide so hopefully someone will try this out and at least confirm that this is a compiler bug. I have two classes, class 'A' and class 'B'. Class 'B' derives from class 'A'. They both have the same privately declared (same names and signatures) properties and 'get' and 'set' accessor functions. This is possible because they are PRIVATE. The 'get' and 'set' accessors work fine, the trivial property works fine, but the block property in the derived class causes a compil ...Show All

• Windows Forms DataGridView, Transparent Selected row color

  Hi, The blue selected row color in a DataGridView hides every other colors a row could have which is very annoying. Is there a way to change the alpha to make it transparent Thanks But this would set the background at all time isn't it What I need is to set the row selection color to semi-transparent, still colored but we see the color under it mixed up with the row selection color so it is still obvious that the row is selected. ...Show All

• SQL Server Union Ordering

  Hello, I'm attempting to run three separate queries and have them returned as one recordset. I need to show the top 10 customers based on the number of orders they placed for each of three months, then combine them to give a representation of which customers have been within the monthly top 10 for the overall period of three months. My problem is when I run a count on the number of orders they have placed and order by that count, it is in ascending order which in escence shows me the bottom 10, not the top 10. To resolve this issue, I can specify descending order. This works fine with one query, but when I run all three queries using union statements, I can only have one order by which returns incorrect results. Here is my query. In thi ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) The project type is not supported by this installation.

  After having installed all the RC1 parts, including "Orcas" and try to create a new project in VisualStudio 2005 (Windows Application, XAML Browser Application or Custom Control Library) I get an error message: "The project file '.....' cannot be opened. The project type is not supported by this installation." I've tried reinstalling everything but it's still giving the same error message. Could it be because I'm running a swedish version of Windows XP Although I haven't had this problem with other releases. Hmmm...this didn't do the trick for me. I was previously running June CTP (with sdk, orcas, etc). I followed all uninstall instructions beforehand, and insta ...Show All

• SQL Server Dynamic MDX Query

  I am working on SRS 2005 report and need to calculate measures based on parameters. The new great feature of SRS2005 which allows to use parameters in MDX query unfortunately does not work in inner query.
