• Smart Device Development DomainUpDown

  Hi all, do i have to override this Control if I need to make use of the up and down buttons Thanks Tryst wrote: do i have to override this Control if I need to make use of the up and down buttons Depends on what you mean by "make use of the up and down buttons". Handling the SelectedItemChanged event will make use of those buttons. If you want to do something specific to your control when the up or the down button is pressed, yes, you have to derive from this class and override the UpButton and DownButton methods. ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Synchronous and asynchronous support under one service

  Hi, I have a question. From the thread http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=290651&SiteID=1 I understand that WCF supports both synchronous and asynchrnous under one proxy. There was a reference to http://windowssdk.msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp url=/library/en-us/cpref19/html/P_System_ServiceModel_OperationContractAttribute_AsyncPattern.asp for more details but I think that page is gone or something, all I can find is the first page introducing windows sdk. So here's my problem. I'd like to make a service that supports both synchronous and asynchronous but have no idea as to how to get around to it. If anyone knows a good tutorial or material for this issue, please tell me how I can accompli ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions BindingManagerBase Position_Changed Problem

  Hey Everyone, I have a program that has several textboxes bound to 1 dataset which contains only one table. When the form loads, the data is displayed in the textboxes allowing the user to add, edit, delete, etc., as well as navigate through previously entered records. However, when trying to navigate through the records, it doesn't do anything. The recordCountLabel, which keeps track of the record number that is displayed, changes, but the first record stays on the screen. Here is a little of my code.

• Visual Studio Express Editions Set two methods to the same button_click

  I have a problem to set two methods to the same button_click: One method is called 'grabber' and grab a picture from a video stream and display it to a picture box. The other method simply save the picture from the picture box. They both work if i use two buttons. If a click to grab the picture and then click to save it...no problem . If I use 1 button to do both methods (first grab and then save) it doesnt work , and visual shuts the window form and a yellow arrow appears on line saving command line. If someone had this problem before or just know the answer to my problem, a little help would be great.

• .NET Development Calculated column

  Hi Folks, I have a calculated column in a dataset in my VB 2005 app (added to data set, but not in database) that uses values from 2 other columns multiplyed, and displays that number for the user. Quantity(dec, 18) * Rate(dec,18) = caluculated column 'Total' (dec,18) When ever the user places a decimal number in the quantity column, the value rounds up to the next whole number -- I do not want the number round to the next whole, and also need to limit the results to 2 decimal places. I first thought this was a control problem in a data grid -- it wasn't; I tried seperate text box controls, but with the same results - numbers round up to the next whole. The only other place I could have this problem is in the data set calculate ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. 360 Boat game with source

  Hello I was playing about again the last 4 days and come up with a little boat game for the 360. The source code is very untidy but there might be something of use in there for some people. It was written for use on the 360, it might work ok for the PC. You can have 1 to 4 players and it uses some ai for the others. There's only 1 track at the moment - I may get around to fixing it all up into a proper game if there's enough interest or if an artist wants to help out. It plays a different sound effect when you cross the line and beat your own best score. My best lap is 8.07 (no down to a 7.96) seconds.   Best to use a 360 pad but here's some keys if you feel the need.   Q and E change the number of players ...Show All
