• Windows Forms ClickOnce Fails with "Value does not fall within the expected range."

  I have a ClickOnce-deployed application installed in offline mode across a range of Windows 2000/XP machines on my network. I now receive an 'Application cannot be started. Contact the application vendor.' error message when I attempt to run the application on my development machine. (It works still on the production machines.) I've run mage -cc, and renamed the '2.0' directory to '2.0x' to ignore its presence. Add/Remove Programs still shows it, and clicking Change/Remove pops up a window for a moment, but otherwise does nothing apparent. I've changed the installation path to be a network path instead of a website, and it still fails. The following is the error log: PLATFORM VERSION INFO Windows : 5.1.2600.131072 (Win32NT) Comm ...Show All

• .NET Development DataColumn.Expression Property

  Below is an example from the .NET Class Lib. My question is about the lines of code using expression = "   " They always reference another column in the table. How do you reference another variable in your code. For example: I want to call my function mySUM(x,y) that sums two numbers instead of using the line below that I marked. DataTable table = new DataTable ();     // Create the first column.     DataColumn priceColumn = new DataColumn();     priceColumn.DataType = System.Type.GetType("System.Decimal");     priceColumn.ColumnName = "price";     priceColumn.DefaultValue = 50;          // Create the second, calculate ...Show All

• SQL Server Currency formatting: how to change to use another locale... or is US format hard coded?

  How to I change the formatting of my currency based members according to the actual currency that they are defined in rather than the default US format (in my case GBP). FYI: Direct link to answer: http://sqljunkies.com/WebLog/mosha/archive/2005/10/13/mdx_format_currency.aspx Am I right in thinking that I should create a Script Command in the Calculuations tab to set the appropriate languages for my measures eg: Language ([Measures].[GBPEQUIV-SENSITIVIES]) = 2057; Language ([Measures].[GBPEQUIV-STRESS]) = 2057;   BTW: I also changed the server locale to English-UK to get a default setting. ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. How similar is this to DirectX?

  I started Windows programing two days ago...but I'm used to programming on other systems. Anyways, the lack of docunation for the xna framework sucks and I was wondering how similar it is to another doc so I can work with that Could I be able to read tutorials online dealing with DirectX and apply them to XNA Managed DirectX wasn't always quite as .Net like as some of us would have liked but thsi actually helped becuase the API was very similar in places to native DirectX so it wasn't too hard to follow c++ code. However XNA has made big changes to simplify and and make more .Net like which means that, though the priciples are the same, the APIs look very different in places. So there may be confusion ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Initial call to web service is slow

  Hello, I have a WSE 3.0 ASMX Web service that runs on the same machine as the clients. When the client calls a method in the web service for the very first time, the response time is very slow. Almost 7 seconds. Subsequent calls to the web service are extremely fast. Just under a 1/2 second. I feel as though this is because the web service is getting initialized in IIS What actually is occuring here Would there be a way to, perhaps, waken the web service while the computer is booting, or shortly thereafter Any help would be greatly appreciated! -Mat we try to JIT compile managed code on very first request,we may be taking more time for JIT compilation,after first request,we will try to use ...Show All
