• SQL Server rdl or rdlc for custom reports

  Are custom reports going to carry on using the rdlc extension. If so is the rdlc extension going to be associated with the reporting project designer. Currently rdlc files only show up the designer and not the data or preview tabs in BIDS. Paul's documentation blog post refers to rdl rather than rdlc files. If you don't want to rename your report files to .RDLC for the November CTP, you can type "*.RDL" into the custom reports dialog and hit enter. The report will load just fine... however, any subsequent drilldown actions to other reports will probably default to a .RDLC extension instead of .RDL. Paul A.

• Visual Studio Success! Setup.exe Error in VS 2005

  I'm having problems installing Visual Studio 2005 on a system that already has VS .NET 2003 on it. I have read a number of posts here but nothing I've tried has resolved the problem. Any help would be appreciated. I've tried this install from both the MSDN CD's (2 disc set) and an ISO image on DVD. Installs from both media failed. The setup.exe installs all of the components including the Framework 2.0 and the Document Explorer successfully, but when it attempts to install the actual Visual Studio 2005 component it fails. I have performed a clean boot (XP SP2), cleaned out the users temp directory, ran "installer" and removed any reference to Visual Studio 2005, and ran the "uninstall tool" for beta's (did not find a ...Show All

• Windows Forms Eating MouseWheel Events

  I have a PixtureBox placed in a panel with AutoScroll enabled. I use the mouse wheel to zoom in and out of the image. I was able to add the mousewheel event code and this is working just fine but the image not only zooms, it scrolls with the mouse wheel as well. I would rather not have the image scoll due to the mouse wheel. I have seen examples for C# to use WndProc() to capture the WM_MOUSEWHEEL msg, but I can't seem to get these to port to C++. I have tried the following (Based on the only C++ example I could find)... void WndProc(Message* m) { const int WM_MOUSEWHEEL = 0x020A; switch (m->Msg) { case WM_MOUSEWHEEL: //TODO: Image Zoom Code Goes here... break ; } Form::WndProc(m); } This giv ...Show All

• Visual C++ Counting CPUs

  Hello. It seems to me I found a bug in kernel32.lib. I wrote a program that prints the number of CPUs in the system. It uses windows.h and its appropriate methods ( GetSystemInfo function, SYSTEM_INFO struct and its dwNumberOfProcessors field ). I have dual-core AMD64 processor (3800+) and this program works fine (prints "2") in win32 and x64 releases. But then I decided to get rid of windows.h include. I declared all needed functions, structs, typedefs and defines in my source code to link properly with kernel32.lib. This idea came to me because I wanted my source code to be compiled with all editions of Visual Studio 2005, even VC++ Express that don't have windows.h by default. In this particular test I used Visual St ...Show All

• Windows Forms Really stupid question from frustrated VB4 programmer

  I've been using VB4 for 10 years. My new PC won't run VB4 - too much RAM - so I'm trying to rewrite a VB4 program that pulls data off an Access database. In VB4 I could pull a single piece of data off my database with "string = Data1.Recordset(column number)". I could navigate with "Data1.Recordset.MoveNext" and similar. In VBS I have built a dataset and populated it. 'Me.ArchetypesTableAdapter.Fill(Me.Npc3DataSet.Archetypes)' I can navigate with "Archetypes.BindingSource.MoveNext", but when I try to pull data off the dataset I get a variety of errors. The information on VBS tells me a lot about how to bind data to appear on the form - but I don't want that. I just want to read the contents of a cell into a s ...Show All

• Visual Basic "*" Question

  Hi again everyone, I am back once again working on a new project. For some reason I cant seem to find the info I need so, I am back here. :) Anyways, my project... I made a text file parser... it basically opens a text file of your choice, then it searches the document for any word you specify, afterwards, it places that info in a new textbox that you can save as a new file. What I really need this app for is to parse emails. Since the emails arent the same... just the same domain... I need to be able to use the * as a wildcard. Any info on how to do this would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance, I think the following code will end the project Dim strEmailList As String = "x@a.com,m@b.com,test1@aol.com, ...Show All

• Visual Basic Replace COM xyz.dll with .NET CCW xyz.tlb

  Hi, We need to upgrade an VB 6.0 class library to VB .NET. We have one enterprise COM application which has custom exit through which we can make enterprise application call our class library. As of now when we register the VB6.0 class library our Ent App is able to instantiate VB6 library and working fine. But when I unregister it and then create .NET assembly and register the .NET assembly for COM using REGASM, enterprise app is not able to instantiate this CCW. My question here is how can i exactly replace an COM "abc.dll" with CCW abc.dll so that existing applications which worked fine with COM abc.dll also should work fine with CCW abc.dll. We are completely stuck here. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Upd ...Show All
