• Windows Forms TableAdapter Wizard generates No Update/Delete Procedures

  I just updated to VS2005 sp1 and I seem to have lost the ability to generate update/delete procedures using the TableAdapter wizard. Get/Add are created but the others are not. I am sysadmin on the SQL server so this is not a permissions issue. Has anyone else run into this Turns out that the problem was that people who created the table (not me) had a column called 'id' but did not specify it as a primary key. If there is no primary key, then there are no errors or warnings given by the wizard, you just get a side effect whereby there is no update or delete procedures. Cheers. ...Show All

• Visual C# Problem with Sockets

  Hi buddies, How are you !! I got the following problem while i am developing a chat software My software consists of two parts: Server Client each in a seperate project, and each works very well when they are working alone, but when i try to test my application -I run the server then the client- i got the problem that when the client create the TcpClient object i got this message: Only one usage of each socket address (protocol/network address/port) is normally permitted I think that is because i use the same port number for both applications but this is the only way to run both applications on the same machine. the short version of my question is: How can I start a TcpListener and a TcpClient on the ...Show All

• Windows Forms Button Hover Color C#

  I was wondering how to disable the button hover color in a program in the form.cs. Is it possible or is there some other way. You changed your original question, making every post to your thread look like nonsense. That's pretty annoying and, frankly, rather rude. Let's try this all over again. I'll lock this thread and mark it as answered, you can repost your question in a new thread. ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL Server 2005 with SQL 2000 Emulation Mode

  I am installing an application that makes reference to "SQL Server 2005 with SQL 2000 Emulation Mode Enabled". But I'm not seeing how to turn this on within SQL Server 2005. Is 2000 Emulation Mode available somewhere Can anyone point me in the right direction Thanks, Derek I expect that they want your database to be in 8.0 Compatibility Mode, and not in 9.0. Here is a way to check....This query will return databases that are in 9.0 Mode: select name, compatibility_level from sys.databases where compatibility_level = 90 To change the mode, the DB should be set into single-user first, in my example below the database name is DIR: ALTER DATABASE DIR SET SINGLE_USER go Then change the ...Show All

• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums A Control's Visible property does make the control Visible in Access 2002

  Hello, Setting up a simple Form in Access 2002 is not so simple today. I have a label I want to make Visible when a TextBox's BeforeUpdate Event detects a logical condition in data. Problem is, Setting the Visible property to True does not render the Label Control Visible. Calling Form.Repaint from within the Event handler generates a runtime error. I have tried searching the Access help and the knowledge base for 'Visible property' for Access 2002 and found nothing addressing this issue. How can I make an invisible label Visible ...Show All

• SQL Server Remote Connections using SQL Server 2005 Developers Enterprise Edition

  I have a problem. I am using the developers version of SQL Server Enterprise edition. I am trying to run a command in MS command prompt: Aspnet_regsql -E -S localhost -ssadd -sstype p After I execute this command, I receive a Name Pipe error that under the default settings, SQL Server doesn't allow remote connections. I took some steps to try to resolve the problem: 1) I googled the interrnet to see if there was any one else who ran into the same problem and if there was a quick resolution. 2) I check SQL Server Books on line about SQL server configuration manager and how to enable remote connections using Name Pipes and TCP/IP. 3) I used C:\WINDOWS\system32\cliconfg.exe to enable Name Pipes and TCPIP to be enable on the ...Show All

• Visual Basic Slow picturebox hover

  I'm rather new at Visual Basic and a problem has accrued. The problem I got is that the change of image in the picturebox is slow, to slow to be acceptable. I've added the pictures to the resources and the event code looks like this: Private Sub menuplay_hover(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles menuplay.MouseHover menuplay.Image = Snake.My.Resources.menuplay_hover End Sub Private Sub menuplay_hoveroff(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles menuplay.MouseLeave menuplay.Image = Snake.My.Resources.menuplay End Sub The original image that is assigned to the picturebox is called "menuplay".

• Windows Forms Programmatic re-ordering of DataGridView columns / HeaderText issue

  Hi Guys, I am trying to programmatically re-order columns of a DataGridView via a "Configure View" form, giving the user buttons to move the columns left or right. I do this as follows: ------------------- DataGridViewColumnCollection m_columns; // cached columns // Now, assume the user has selected a column (the column-index is in the variable selectedIndex), & wants to move it left, he'll click on a button. The click event-handler for the button does the following: DataGridViewColumn col = m_columns[selectedIndex] m_columns.remove(col.name); m_columns.insert(selectedIndex-1, col); --------------- This re-orders the columns, but does not move the headerText over.

• Visual Studio Team System Removing a workspace where the Team Foundation Server no longer exist.

  Before installing TFS in our production environment I created a test server. The test server no longer exist, but I still have a workspace on my development machine referencing the server name. I am unable to find a way to get rid of this workspace. TF /delete return with error: TF30076: The server name TestServer provided does not correspond to a server URI that can be found.... I need to delete this workspace because I want to map the Production server to this workspace. Please help. You need to remove the workspace information from your local cache. Then you can delete the local files. Buck has a recent blog post that covers the details: http://blogs.msdn.com/buckh/archive/2006/09/12/path_is_ ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Can not read downloaded 6.0.5536.0.2.WindowsSDK_Vista_RC1.DVD.Rel.img

  Running XP2 I burned 6.0.5536.0.2.WindowsSDK_Vista_RC1.DVD.Rel.img as an .iso onto a DVD but under Vista RC1 (5600.16384 o6-08-29 22:30) all I can see is one file ReadMe.T which says This disc contains a "UDF" file system and requires an operating system that supports the ISO-13346 "UDF" file system specification. Tried to load Nero 6.0 onto Vista; but Nero won't load onto Vista and Ahead still does not have Vista drivers. Tried WinImage to read the downloaded .img renamed to .iso directly and, as above, all that is visible is the ReadMe.T file. Same results with ISOBuster. Tried to check the CRC of the downloaded .img with the suggested tool on the SDK download page. The instructions are <quote> To ...Show All
