• Visual C# Rendering UserControls at runtime

  Hi, This is probably a simple issue but I can't work out how best to solve this. I have made a simple user control - I need to draw one of these user controls on the page for each item selected from a database. I have written the code, and the correct HTML is generated. However, the controls aren't rendered on screen. I think this is because the valid is generated at runtime which then doesn't allow it to be rendered as a user control at runtime - it's just treated as incorrect HTML. Code to Generate the UserControls. [code] DataTable dtGroupAccess = (DataTable)sp_procs.GetGroupPermissions(group_key,dbConn.c); this.sPermissions=""; foreach(DataRow row in dtGroupAccess.Rows) { this.sPermissions += &quo ...Show All

• .NET Development Connecting to SQL Database using Enterprise Library's Data Access block

  Hello, I am creating a windows forms application in C# and I'm trying to connect to my SQL database using Enterprise Library's Data Access application block using the following code (btw, I'm sort of new to these forums and wasn't sure if there's specific way to mark code in a post, so i just changed the font and color): ConnectionStringSettings s = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["myConnString"]; Database DB = DatabaseFactory.CreateDatabase(s.ConnectionString); So I've created an App.config file defining my connection string, as seen below: < xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" > <configuration> <configSections> <section name="dataConfiguration" type="Mic ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Event Handlers not working

  I'm trying to attach a simple event handler to a CommandBarButton and it' when I run my example the event is never triggered. Is there something I need to do outside of assigning a Click event handler The most common reason for this is that you've not declared the button object variable at the class level, so it goes out of scope and is eventually garbage collected. If that's not the problem in your case, you need to provide more information. 1. Type of project: VSTO, WinForms, Addin 2. Show the code you use for instantiating and creating the button 3. With which Office application (including version) are you working ...Show All

• Visual C++ CFile Data Removal probs

  Is There any short way to remove some lines from a file say there is a file called Hello.dat contains 5000 lines 1) In that i just want read first 200 lines 2) Preform some operation 3) remove them i.e. 200 lines if the operation is successful //This is the problem i.e. the third task Some efficient was i.e. without creating another file i.e. new file Sarguna Unfortunately, it seems the Operating System does not allow shortening of a file by removing data at the beginning. It only allows truncation of the tail. Therefore I think it is not possible to solve your problem without read and write operations (on the same or two files). But I would consider the following approach. The first value of your file should be reserved: i ...Show All

• .NET Development Any performance gain by compiling to x64 instead of Any CPU?

  Forgive me if this has been answered already, but it seems like most of the posts and information I look at never give a clear answer to this question. We have a C# .Net 2.0 application, and are looking to move it onto 64 bit hardware. There are options to compile it in a CPU agnostic form (platform target = Any CPU) or specifically for x64 hardware (platform target = x64). Is there any performance benefit in specifically targetting the x64 platform Or should we stick with Any CPU. Additionally, are there any concerns about cross-compiling on a 32 bit machine build box From what I can tell, there shouldn't be any issues compiling on a 32 bit machine using the standard 32 bit .Net 2.0 Framework.

• SQL Server "fractional truncation" trying to insert time value into smalldatetime via SQL Native Client ODBC

  The following represents a change in behavior between the SQL Server ODBC driver and the SQL Native Client ODBC driver. I noticed a similar post about this issue, but the scenario below is slightly different. I'm trying to insert a SQL_C_TIME value into a smalldatetime column (SQL_TYPE_TIMESTAMP) via a parameterized insert. With the SQL Server driver, I receive the "fractional truncation" warning with a SQL_SUCCESS_WITH_INFO from the SQLExecute, but the value is still inserted into the table. With the SQL Native Client driver, I again get the "fractional truncation" and SQL_SUCCESS_WITH_INFO, but the value is NOT inserted into table. Here's how to reproduce in ODBC Test.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Write your own SpriteBatch 101 (long:code included)

  People keep asking "why doesn't SpriteBatch do X ". I keep saying "write your own". Well I decided to just write one for you, so people can see how it's done. The SpriteBatch class I wrote performs about 50% faster than the XNA SpriteBatch when all Draw calls are using the same texture. (Best case scenario, but you SHOULD put all your sprites in one or few textures for performance anyways.) On my card, I get about 188 fps with 1000 sprites with MySpriteBatch, and about 124 fps with 1000 Sprites using xna SpriteBatch. MySpriteBatch also supports, or could easily support: Using your own effect file. (2 parameters, viewProjection, and diffuseTexture) Using 3d vertices if you want.

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Outlook : GAL

  Hello, I would like to be able to display the "Select Names" dialog, if not access the GAL, using my VSTO add-in. I see references to CDO being a requirement for this but CDO is not supported in managed code. Setting aside the promised Outlook 2007 functionality, is this possible in Outlook 2003 Thanks, Tad Hi Tad, The only way to display the Select Names dialog for Outlook 2003 is by using CDO, which as you stated is not supported from managed code. If re-writing your solution in native code isn't an option, you will either need to target your add-in for Outlook 2007 (which supports this in the object model), or use an alternative APIs to display this dialog. --Ryan ...Show All

• Windows Forms Text to Screen

  Hello, I need help figuring out how to write text directly to the screen. I've looked at the forums and the online help but still no luck. Any help would be appriciated. Hi, if you want to write the the screen device context you can use GetDC with a value of null to get the desktop device context, then you can draw onto that directly.
