• Visual Basic Timer Help?

  How do I make a timmer that will run code every 5 min drag and drop timer on form in designer view Set the timer interval property to 5 minutes (1 second = 1000 and the interval is calculated in milliseconds) in code, whereever you are going to start running the timer: Me.theTimer.Start() whenever you are going to stop the timer from running: Me.theTimer.Stop() then in the timer tick event (double click the timer control), place your code there - it will run when the time interval has elapsed ...Show All

• Windows Forms Prevent Control Button Draw

  Hi, I was wondering what is the best way to stop a button control redraw as the mouse cursor enters or leaves the button. It is a good thing to avoid the owner draw style as I am not sure how well it is supported by the managed code, and likely by intercepting the WM_DRAWITEM message, in order to be selective for the instances that a draw is desired. Any comments/ideas Best Regards, Reza Bemanian If you override the following methods and not call the base method versions of them, that will do: OnEnter(), OnMouseEnter(), OnGotFocus(), OnLostFocus(), OnLeave(), OnMouseLeave(), OnMouseMove() Each one you override and do not call the base version of it, will stop painting the control on ...Show All

• Windows Forms VB Font Selector Toolbar

  Hello, Is anyone aware of an easy way to add a Font Style and Size selector to an application toolbar Right now It would seem that I need to actually loop through all the system fonts and write them to the drop down via a loop. This seems over complex for something that is likely used in just about all text input applications. Any time saving tricks would be appreciated. For say, the FontFamilies, you can just databind them to a combobox for example for them to select from or however your control "binds" the items...the down side is that it has the strings displayed like: [FontFamily: Name=Courier New] this was using: Me.theComboBox.DataSource = FontFamily.Families as ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System SQL Server Version(s) Support

  It appears that for CTP6 only the Enterprise and Developer editions of SQL Server 2005 are supported. The Standard edition is not supported. When DB Pro is released, will it support the Standard Edition as well Thanks - Amos. The reason is that the VSTS4DBP project has to be able to serve all target databases with all their abilities. I can not develop a SQL 2005 database project with partitioning or parallel index operations (which I don't anyway - but others do) if the validation database is not able to cope with the terminoligy / validation of my objects. Wouldn't you scream if you had a project all finished and then determined that it only used part of the capabilities of the target system be ...Show All

• .NET Development Performance Counters for Http.sys ?

  Hi friends, As per this article, I can have a look at HTTP.SYS performance counters - http://www.microsoft.com/technet/network/evaluate/new_network.mspx I need to see "HTTP Service URL Groups" and "HTTP Service Request Queues" but I don't see them anywhere in the categories of objects (.NET CLR Networking does not have them). I started a log and added counters in .NET CLR Networking. Ran my server and the request generator. But I can't see any data being captured using the MMC snap-in. I'm concerned about the performance of my server vis-a-vis the no. of connections it is servicing per second, dropped or refused connections, connections waiting in queue, alive connections etc. So I need to see all this da ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Filtering in a master detail situation

  I have a listbox which is used to filter a listview. I would like to add two items manually after the listbox is databound. One to show ALL items (the attatched listview is not filtered at all), and one to show all items that are not in any of the items listed in the listview. How could i do that using the supported databinding features if the items in the list are just strings, you could probably add them before you bind. if they are some kind of objects then probably you can look at ' CompositeCollection', that way you can style them differently ...Show All

• SQL Server Notification services not installed

  We are upgrading a Windows 2003 system with SQL Server 2000 and we've been seeing the notification services .net dll fail to install. The error that is displayed has a internet lookup to Microsoft. When we lookup the error it mentions that MS DTC needs to be started for the notification services to be installed. We re-imaged the box and verified it was running prior to the install of SQL 2005. Anyone have any ideas why this error is occurring The first place to check for a failed install would be the SQL setup logs (in %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Setup Bootstrap\LOG). The notification services installation log should be one of *NS.log. ...Show All

• Visual C# Allocating memory throws exception when trieng to use native code dll

  Hi, I need to use a native code dll in my application. I am working on .NET2 env, written in c#. When I try to use the Init method in the native dll, it throws the following exception: "Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt." I know this method supposed to open a com port and allocate a block of memory. I wrote a .NET wrapper for this dll. The h. file of this native dll includes 2 structures: 1. typedef struct ALARMREC { int Flag; int AlarmType; int AlarmUnitNum; int AlarmUnitWing; int AlarmLocation; int AlarmDelayFlag; char AlarmTime[20]; }alarmRec; 2. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Unmodified files are asked to be checked out when checking in changes.

  I found this post which seems to be a similar if not identical issue: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=1115155&SiteID=1 The solution contains multiple projects. I started out from a clean state (get latest) and checked out one file, edited it, saved it. Then when I tried to check it in, a dialog pops up asking me to save changes to the solution and a host of other projects which I know are not dependent on the file I edited at all. This seems like an issue that is happening across multiple users of this product. I understand that it may not be a TFS specific issue but rather VS 2005 that is modifying these solution/project files - btw, diff tells me nothing has changed, so it might be that the ide is inappropriatel ...Show All
