• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Using ContextMenuOpening to populate ContextMenu?

  It seems that it's not possible to use ContextMenuOpening event to populate the ContextMenu. Because it will open before the ContextMenu is filled Best regards, Thomas Andersen You can modify a context menu already on an element but you can not provide a new context menu. This is because context menu opening is fired after the check to see if the element has a context menu. If the element doesn't have a menu at the time of the check, it is not opened on that element even if you add one in the ContextMenuOpening event. A workaround is to add a placeholder context menu to the element and then do what ever processing you need to on it (or even replace with another menu): <Button ContextM ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Answer for How do I bring the animation in my form, to front of the controls?

  (Because the question is in an old post with a lot of 'first try' code. I decided to put this answer with much better code in a separate thread.) The following example is a modified version of a program by Bob Powell that was written in an older version of Visual basic. (Uses shapes instead of circles.) When the conversion wizard upgraded the older program, it retained the old style of not using partial classes. For form1 of the example program we will follow suit and do the same thing. So, CUTTING AND PASTING OF THIS PROGRAM WILL BE SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT THAN YOU ARE NORMALLY USED TO. The code below is clearly divided into three blocks; (block1, block2, and block3), which we will refer to in the following instructions: 1. Open ...Show All

  I read in another post here that SetChannelVolume is not supported on Windows. Is this still the case with June SDK The method always returns S_OK. Sorry - we'll be sure to document this issue and make the API return an error. You might want to look into the IXACTCue::SetMatrixCoefficients call instead - perhaps it will do what you need.

• .NET Development Is there a Groups property that can be used to iterate Named captures

  Hello all, If you define a pattern with named captures (eg ( <Name>^\w+ \w+) you can then reference the group directly using Groups("Name"). I would like to be able to iterate the groups by name something like this: For Each group As Group In Match.Groups If group.Name = "Name" Then ' Do something End If Next I have not been able to find a property that exposes the named capture.

  We recently upgraded our web application to VS.Net 2005 and CR XIr2 from VS.Net 2003 & CR 9.2. We load a report using the ReportDoument class from a UNC path and call the PrintToPrinter method.

• Windows Forms Proper way to invalidate using a Region

  Hello, I have a user control that uses a graphic path to draw itself. The control just draws a line with two points. The user can grab on of the points and move it around to change its location. While the user is moving the point, the control is supposed to re-draw itself so the endpoint of the line will be attached to the mouse. This works fine when I do an Invalidate() on the control, but it flickers, so I want to only invalidate a specific part of the control. I'm doing a Invalidate(new Region(_InvalidatePath)); Where _InvalidatePath is is the the combination of the path I just drew and the new path that I want to draw. I get left over garbage on the screen and I don't get a line between the two points. I'm certain I'm ...Show All

• .NET Development Try refreshing the table adapter

  It is my understanding that when using a TableAdapter and selecting the proper options, Insert, Delete and Update statements are generated. The Update statement should work just using the following: myTableAdapter.Update(changes); Where changes is the DataSet containing the modified data. This logic works great for one of the tables in the DB but not for another. Learning this new stuff is Confusing at best - Frustrating at worst.
