• Visual Studio Crystal report Viewer Not Showing Control Bar Button Icons in Windows XP

  Dear Friends, I am using Crystal report along with VB.net 2003 in windows application. While executing, the project in windows 2003, its not showing any errors, but when we run it on Windows XP, in some forms, the control bar buttons(print, export, next page last page, previous page, first page, etc ) are showing without there icons. These invisible buttons can be found by placing the mouse over the specified area, then it shows the tool tip like print etc. Hope you good people will reply soon Regards Simjith Only time i have ever heard of this type of issue is when someone was using the RDC, not the .NET sdk. It was caused because of the hardware. Either very little memory(RAM), ...Show All

• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums Count and display in cell

  Ok I have an Excel workbook that contains a schedule (51 worksheets total). Each cell has intials in it and if that person has taken a day off the cell is highlighted a certain color (yellow, rose, or red). What I need to do is have something that goes through and counts what intials have what color and then display in a cell the number. So: If cell contains "initials" and cell color is "color" Then count and display in "cell" Example: If cell contains "JJ" and cell color is "Yellow" Then count and display in "A2" I know it is possible to do this but I'm not sure how.

• Visual Studio Express Editions Question on Form1.Load event

  Hi, This has to be a simple problem; tonight I'm unusually dense. I have a simple application that has a Start button. The Start button calls a subroutine DoIt(). I'd also like the DoIt() subroutine to be called when Form1 loads. The Form1.Load eventhandler has a single statement; DoIt(). The Start button works fine; DoIt() is called, but the Load event handler does not DoIt()! I have tried to DoIt() from different Form1 eventhandlers i.e., Activated and Shown, but they don't DoIt() either. DoIt() reads default data from two Form1 textbox controls, does some calculations, and writes the answer to a textbox. How can I DoIt() when the Form1 loads Thanks. Hi GrandpaB, There's a series of short articles on devcity that walks ...Show All

• SQL Server MAJOR PROBLEM: New SQL2005 installation performance problem.

  We are experiencing a major issue since upgrading from SQL2000 to SQL2005 over the weekend. Starting today, it appears that the performance of SQLServer reaches a limit every 15 minutes. Our configuration is as follows: Window Server 2K3 x64 Enterprise SQLServer 2005 x64 Enterprise HP DL585 with 4 dual core Opterons 32 GB of RAM 2 TB EMC SAN At first, I thought there was a memory pressure problem, since I had the default max memory set. After changing the max memory to only 25 GB (out of 32 available), the issue went away temporarily. However, after 15-20 minutes, the number of batches/sec dropped in half, and remained after half until I changed the max memory setting again. Over the course of the day, I was able to fi ...Show All

• Windows Forms How do I refresh a Listbox after changing its item's properties?

  Hi. First I add objects to a Listbox. These objects override the toString method so that the string is displayed in the Listbox. My problem arises when I change this string in one of the objects. The value of the string changes in the object, but it does not change in the Listbox's display. How do I refresh the Listbox to reflect the change of its objects Also I have sorting enabled for the Listbox, so I would like it to sort as well. Thank you very much. u could register an event handler for the object that fires whenever its name is changed. in there, u simply update the items in the listbox to reflect the change that u have made ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Packaging: "[Content_Types].xml" part?

  I'm messing around with the packaging APIs (my eventual intent is to figure out how to add my own custom parts to an existing XPS file, since MS isn't telling). I started with the PackageRead sample, and made some adjustments to basically take a .XPS input and dump it to a flat-file structure. I'll know when I have it right when I can take any of the sample XPS files, dump to a folder tree, manually re-Zip that back to a .XPS and get a faithful reproduction. It's mostly working, except some sample XPS files have a [Content_Types].xml file in the package root. But for whatever reason, none of the Package collections (Parts & Relationships) seem to recognize the existence of this. So I have two questions: 1) Anybody know how to get at th ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Rehydrating instances persisted in previous execution

  Hello, My project is similar to expense reporting. Someone sends an order, it is stored into a list in memory, and then the workflow waits for an event (Reviewed). I've just added the default SQL persistence service and it works fine. I've subscrived to the idled, unloaded, persisted and loaded events and I see that once it receives the order and it starts waiting for the reviewed event, the instance is unloaded, and once the event arrives it is rehydrated and completed successfully. What I want to do now is: say I start the host, and I receive 2 orders. One is reviewed and accepted, so its removed from the persistence database. The other isnt, so its still kept inside the DB. Then the host closes. Later, the host is re-opened a ...Show All

• Visual C++ MFC documentation

  I have Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Professional installed on my machine. So far, this product has been an incredible hassle and ridiculously difficult to use. I have the task for writing a simple application for Microsoft Windows, and the MSDN library is installed, but I can't search for MFC functions at all. The MSDN library keeps trying to give me totally inpertinent results. I have used Visual Studio in the past, and the older versions were a lot better. I ONLY want to see information about MFC. Is there a way to set this Thank you. If you choose to install the whole MSDN Library in your system when installing Visual Studio 2005, all help documents will be installed in your local hard disk.

  I have 3 identical Access databases in 3 subdirectories in my SQL Server 2000. I have created a linked server to each of this databases.

• SQL Server SQL Exception: Login Failed for "SQLServername/username"

  Hello Everyone, I developed an application using c# that accesses MS SQL server 2000 for records. It works perfectly well on my development machine. However, when I tested it on another machine, I get the Error "Login Failed for SQLServername/username". When I started developing this app, I got this same error on my development machine and I solved the problem by making the 'aspnet' account an administrator in control panel - user accounts in Windows XP. This however doesn't work on the other machines i've tested on, and i get this same error. Here's my connection string: "data source=SERVER\\VSDOTNET;initial catalog=MedicalCenterDB;integrated security=SSPI;persist security info=False;workstation id=SERVER"; Pl ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista MenuStrip is still missing from UISpy

  Hi! My problem is that MenuStrip does not appear in UISpy. I generated a simple WinForms application (not using WinFx), then put a menu strip at the bottom of the Form. The menu lookes like this: | File | Help | . Clicking on the File, a drop-down menu appears with Exit1 and Exit2 items in it. There is nothing else on the Form. Running this sample application, in UISpy the menu does net appear, just this AutomationElement: "pane" "menuStrip1", but no control pattern is allowed on this pane. If I click on the item File (with the CTRL key), a new element appears in the UISpy treeview: "window" "FileDropDown". Since it is window, only the window control pattern is allowed. There are ...Show All
