But when I add the toolbox, it is located in the bottom. Can you provide me an example of this or tell me what I'm doing wrong This is the code I’m writing: … _toolWindow = windows2.CreateToolWindow2(_addInInstance, asm.Location, "MyAddin.ToolBox" , "Content" , guidstr, ref programmableObject); _toolWindow.Visible = true ; _toolWindow.AutoHides = false ; _toolWindow.IsFloating = false ; _toolWindow.Linkable = true ; _toolWindow.SetKind( vsWindowType .vsWindowTypeToolWindow); _applicationObject.MainWindow.LinkedW ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office CommandBarButton not getting deleted in MS Word

  I am developing an Add-In for Word/Excel/PowerPoint applications. I am using Office 2003. In the OnBeginShutDown method, I am trying to delete the existing button.

In addition to that I am getting a confirmation message saying that "Do you want to save changes made to temp.dot" which is irritative to the end user. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Sorting by Rank sorts incorrectly

  Rank is an integer field - but when you sort it and you have say 13 items ranked from 1 to 13. When you try and sort it in the UI by Rank it will rank them 1, 10, 11, 12, 13, 2, 3,4,5... Since the UI only allows integers in this field - sorting it like a string isn't right - I am using the RC version. Is there a work around for this besides entering numbers like: 0000000001 0000000002 etc... Is there a way to change the sort behavior ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Game completed and posted online. Have a look...

  I recently developed a 3D game using XNA and have posted the binary and source on www.threesixbox.com . The game's name is Snake and it can be found at http://www.threesixbox.com/project/ id=f580fc1536 I've been developing games since the early 80's but just downloaded XNA last week. During the course of the project I went through several iterations of optimizations and learned quite a bit about XNA.  I know that whenever I'm learning a new development language or library, working examples are very helpful to me.  If nothing else, this project can be used as another source of information for anyone interested in XNA development. Let me know what you think...   I just finish ...Show All

  Hi, I would like to have the option of merging all the changesets that are linked to my WI as one unit and not allways to take some specific changeset and merge it. what is the best way to implement it Thanks in advance, Shmulik. You can write a bit of OM code to automate things, but you'll still need to merge each changeset individually in the general case. Merge only works on contiguous ranges. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Can one item hold more events ?

  Can, lets say a button handle two events. I need this Private sub btnStart () handles btnStart.MouseEnter btnStart.Image = (" somewhere ") End Sub Private Sub btnStart () handles btnStart.MouseLeave btnStart.Image = ("somewhere") End Sub Yes a function can be used to handle more than one event.  Just list all the events separated by commas after the 'handles' keyword Private sub btnStart () handles btnStart.MouseEnter, btnStart.MouseLeave Obviously the signature of the function has to match the signature of both the event's handlers.  For example, one function can't handle both MouseEnter and MouseDown because MouseEnter requires an EventHandler function while MouseDown requ ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Trying to __debugbreak() in a service

  On XP I just stick a __debugbreak() in the code and start the service and when it's hit I get a Debug button in the fault dialog which attaches to VS2005 and I can then start debugging from that point. On Vista I get the fault, but no option to debug. Is it possible to debug in this way on Vista If not, how does one debug a service on Vista It has a manifest set for "asInvoker". It currently runs fine on XP, and it runs on Vista, but behaves differently on Vista and I need to investigate.

• Audio and Video Development Taking Screen Snapshots

  Is anyone aware of a way to take screen captures of the video and save those to the player storage for later viewing Jacco - Once you've taken the screen shot, its in the filecache and ready to use - you don't need to copy it to the p-stor and then copy it back to use it.  Putting the screenshot in p-stor is for when you want to access it later.  You only need to copy from p-stor back to the filecache after your app restarts (ie,  you've ejected the disc) and the screenshot is removed from the filecache (or if the screenshot is removed from your filecache during your app due to garbage collection). Xavier - FileIO is its own object, it is not a member of application (use FileIO.copy).  Once you've finishe ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Samples, link error while building x86 version of GraphChat : p2pgraph.lib

  Hi-- I'm trying to build the sample project: GraphChat using MSVS2005 TeamSuite on a x64 Vista install using the default win32 config (I also created and unsuccessfully tried an x64 config).
