• .NET Development Need some advice on how to approach this problem (web service calling C# application methods)

  Hi everyone, I've been working on a solution to this project I was assigned, and after working on it for a couple days I thought maybe I was approaching it the wrong way. Basically what I need to do is to get a web service to access an a method or two on a locally running C# Windows application (Like for example have the web service send a string to an int method on the C# application). The way I have approached it thus far is by having the application register itself with the ROT, and then attempting to grab it via Monikers, etc. I've moved along pretty far with it thus far, but then thought that it could possibly be easier by creating a COM server/client type thing, with the C# application being the server and the web service being a "te ...Show All

• Visual C++ Reverse Engineering from VC++ 2005

  Hi, I have a project in VC++ 2005 and I am looking for a way to reverse engineer so that I can get the class diagrams. I read here - http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms182014(VS.80).aspx - that it is possible to do so by using the project->Visio UML option in VS 2005. However, I do not find any such command in the project menu. I have VS 2005 Professional and Visio 2003 Professional SP2 installed in my machine. Does anybody know how I can do the reverse engineering from VC++ 2005 Thanks, Vijay. P.S.: In the page referenced above - http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms182014(VS.80).aspx - they talk about Visio for Enterprise Architects. Is it the same as VS Professional A search for 'Visio for Enterpris ...Show All

  Hi! I'm working on an windows form application that has to be controlled only with keyboard. I have a form on which a have some controls (2 rows of 3 controls) similar to buttons.

  With all the great new offerings out or coming soon for the 360: XBox Live Video Marketplace, XNA game creation, and the recently announced IPTV, the poor little 20GB hard drive's days look numbered. Is MS planning to release a larger hard drive for the 360 I'm pretty sure that many people (including myself) would be very interested in one. I don't want to replace my box either. I wish we could write to external USB hard drives and flash drives rather than using them read only. The more we can comfortably store, the more we might buy... ...Show All

• Windows Search Technologies No permission to use WDS!

  Here's the situation: I'm using WDS with an ASP.NET application. In order to make this work, I call the ExecuteQuery method inside a STA Thread. While debugging, everything works fine. When I deploy it, I get "Access Denied" in the ExecuteQuery method. I printed out the current user name in several moments of the code and I found out that before calling the thread, the user is IUSR_xxxxx. But inside the thread, the user is ASP.NET. I tried using impersonation in the web.config. Before the thread the user I set in the web.config file is impersonated, but when the thread starts, it changes back to ASP.NET What can I do Hello Themeros, I'm not completely clear on what you're doing, but I can say ...Show All

• SQL Server Dimensions within Excel Pivot Table

  Hi I have a cube that has dimensions such as year, company, customer, statustext, employee etc. In the Browse in Analysis Manager - all the dimensions look fine.

For example - i have a display Customer as rows, years as columns. I drag the statustext next to customer and shows customer. The filter in the page section for statustext is correct. I have tried moving the dimension back to the Field List and re-adding, refreshing from the cube makes no difference.
