• Visual Studio SubreportProcessing not firing, does it have to be an executable project?

  Summary: SubreportProcessing is not firing when the project output type is not executable. Hi , I am using LocalReport in my application. All the reports are located is inside a library and also all of them are embeded inside the assembly, so far everythings worked fine until I tried to use a subreport. I notice for some reason the SubreportProcessing event does not get fired, in order to test the application, I copied exactly the same files into an executable test project, and I noticed everything work properly there. Can you tell me what is the problem   And if my guess is correct, problem is related to the project output type, how can I achieve this without chaning the project output type Many Thank ...Show All

• Visual C# Restrict the size of a string

  This is more then likley going to be an easy fix, but at the moment I can not think straight. What I am tring to do is restrict the size of a string. I am in the process of migrating some data from one sql system to another and need to truncate some text in the process. I need to convert a text field to a varchar(7989), to do this I need to make sure that the data from the text filed is striped so that only the first 7989n characters are returned. I have a data reader that I am going through and am adding it to a genieric collection that I am then going to process and re insert into the new system... all I need is a way to restrict the text returned from the data reader... all the rest is fine. not at all :-) I take this as a ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Orcas December CTP Moved to First Week of January

  From Charlie Calvert via the OakLeaf blog: "The January CTP (formerly known as the December CTP) should be out shortly after the new year. We are sorry about the delay; it is due in part to the huge December 14 storm that knocked out the power for over a million residents here in the Seattle area." According to Charlie's updated " Community Convergence XV " post, the January 2007 CTP will drop "the first week of January." --rj Perhaps I'm missing something here...but the January CTP of Orcas will _STILL_ not have any LINQ to SQL features in it, which means those of us who have been building lots of code up on LINQ to SQL and the ADO.NET vNext Entity Framewo ...Show All

• Visual C++ error LNK2001

  Hi, (I saw the post on same subject but it seems to be a little different. so I'll use some word from that post!) There is a project earlier written in VC++ 6.0.  I opened the same project in VS.

• SQL Server displaying % in value

  Hi I am calculating percentage using expression. I want to display % at the end of the result. If I use P1 or P0 somehow it multiplies the result with 100 I guess.

So if i use a format expression #,# (not to display anything in the cell),the percentage field is getting disturbed and is not getting di ...Show All

• SQL Server ParallelPeriod, Subcubes, and SP2

  We're defining some KPIs that include trend expressions which use the ParallelPeriod function to calculate the change in a KPI value since a past time period. For example, we calculate the change in the KPI value When we use an MDX SELECT with a WHERE clause that specifies a time slice, the expression evaluates correctly. However, when we use CREATE SUBCUBE to do the filter, or use BI Studio (which creates a subcube), the result is incorrect. In particular, the there's an IsEmpty check for the parallel period of the KPI value, so we're not doing bogus math when there's no data for the previous period. With the WHERE clause, that works fine, but with the subcube, the ParallelPeriod always evaluates to empty. As a point of comparison, I t ...Show All

• Visual Studio Detect change to project properties

  Hi all, Hopefully a quick and easy question. I have a little add-in that I use to detect certain events in Visual Studio 2005. I now want to be able to detect when a project's properties have been changed (ie build path, application type, references). Does anyone know of such an event and how to hook into it. Thanks, Mark. You can detect reference changes casting EnvDTE.Project.Object to VSLangProj.VSProject and then using VSProject.Events.ReferencesEvents, but AFAIK there is no way to detect property changed events, maybe using some service from the SDK ...Show All
