• .NET Development Handling Exception in .NET 2.0 Async web service

  Hi, I have problem calling asynchronous web service via the "XXXAsync" method. In .NET 1.1 I can wrap the try...catch block around the "EndXXXX" method and catch any exception that could occur during asynchronous call (such as the internet connectivity problem, blah blah) But in .NET 2.0 there are no "BeginXXX" and "EndXXX" anymore.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) A New Windows Application, WPF or Forms?

  Hi I plan on starting a new Windows Desktop project soon and I will surely want some places to be WPF, but the majority of the forms will be Windows Forms 2.0. Is there any advantage / disadvantage for me using a WPF application type (template) instead of a Windows Forms Application template from VS 2005, or because the majority of the application will be windows forms am I better off using the current Windows Forms template for the project Cheers   miloush wrote: If you start the project in Windows Forms template, I cannot imagine how should you manage to compile the WPF stuff. Maybe it's also simple, but this is my point of view, hope it helps a little bit. ...Show All

• SQL Server Dropdown parameter in Report Builder

  Hi, Is it possible to create a dropdown parameter in Report Builder The result I want to get is (for example): The parameter is "Project". Next to the parameter should be a dropdown box from where I can select a project (for example: project1, project2, ...). Once the parameter is selected, and I click "view report", the report should only display data from the selected project. The only other options available in the Filter dialog screen are: "Field" is in list "Field" contains "Field" equals But none of these methods of creating a parameter generate a dropdownbox from where items can be selected, equal to those in the database. So ... is it even possible to create a dropdown p ...Show All

• Visual Basic Import, Export Access Database Files ???

  Hello! I am new to Windows Forms. I am using VB.NET as the language for an application I am writing. I have searched around trying to find some documentation on this and have not found a solution. ****************************************************************** The application that I am using, uses an Access database to track trainee data. Every now and then the database needs to be exported and sent to me. Also, users will need to have the ability to overwrite a previous database with a new one sent to them from me.

• Windows Forms TableAdapter Select Command

  Hi, I have a form  that shows room availabilty for a number of hotels. I'm using a tableadapter called AvailabilityTableAdapter to fill a datagrid view. Is it possible to change the select command of the tableadapter programaticly to a string that I create dynamically Thanks Mark And that's exactly my problem too. Now, my question is that, as we cannot modify the SelectCommand of the TableAdapter generated by the wizard, but the dataset generated provides a type-safe data binding, is it a good idea to use the same Dataset generated by the wizard but create a new adapter for selecting data dynamically ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. [C#] Problem with the SkinInformation.ConvertToIndexedBlendedMesh()

  Hi guys and girls :) Maybe anyone of you could help me with this, as I have no idea why this happens. The problem is as follows: I load textures into a ContainerMesh ( I created an array of textures in the derived class, where I can store the textures) and then use its MeshData, AdjacencyStream and NumberPaletteEntries in the ConvertToIndexedBlendedMesh() method to create an indexed blended mesh. The code is: MeshData data = _MeshContainer.MeshData; data.Mesh = _MeshContainer.SkinInformation.ConvertToIndexedBlendedMesh( data.Mesh, flags, _MeshContainer.GetAdjacencyStream(), _MeshContainer.NumberPaletteEntries, out influences, out bones); After this method executes, though, the texture in the texture array has been disposed and its Unman ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums remove endLocation flag for driving directions

  Hi, Is it possible to hide or remove the endLocation flag that appears at the destination for driving directions I have a custom icon that appears at the destination but is being drawn over by this flag. I am aware that there is a DeletePushpin(ID) method but I am unable to determine the ID of the flag I want to remove. Is there a consistent ID this flag is always created with or is there some way to determine the ID of the flag No the ID for the last flag is not consistant. The only way I can think about doing what you want is to call deleteallpins(), then re-adding them in (provided you stored them from the route itinerary). Finally stick the start flag pin on the start driving location to finish. ...Show All

• .NET Development sql question

  Would there be a way to make the c# connection string to the sql database universal, so that it can be passed from one computer to another It's for a school project, so security isn't an issue. Why you all don't use same DB engine, like SqlExpress. Connection string must be configurable, and defined in one place. You can also create one simple form that will be shown when connection to the database is not established, with fields for all properties of connection string. So you will change that first time when moving to new database. Moving database is best with database backup if you work on sql server, but you can also take mdf file which requires detaching database (preffered for SqlExpress), and last t ...Show All
