• Windows Forms New Row Creation Problem

  Why dosent this code create a row in the database CookBookDataSet . CookBookRow row = cookBookDataSet.CookBook.NewCookBookRow(); row.Titlu = txtbxTitlu.ToString(); row.Reteta = txtbxReteta.ToString(); row.Ingrendiente = txtbxIngrendiente.ToString(); this .cookBookDataSet.CookBook.Rows.Add(row); this .cookBookTableAdapter.Update( this .cookBookDataSet.CookBook); row.AcceptChanges(); In case Gavin's code does not help.

• Visual Studio Team System Dynamic loading of import files

  Is it possible to store some build configuration info into my project file (.csproj) when using Team Build The problem is that the import statements are evaluated before any targets and my .csproj file is naturally not present at that time. So, is it possible to load (import) my .csproj file later at, say, in AfterGet target Or are there some other options. No. It's configuration, that is needed in many scripts and build files etc. The project file is the best place to store that information as I don't want replicate that data into many places. (And using the tfsbuild.proj as a host for this data is much more difficult that creating a custom task that reads the project file) ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Play Wave Properties

  I'm trying to change the Play Wave property 'LoopEvent' to 'Yes' but I get the error "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I have a cue and track setup, with a Play Wave event, and it contains a sound. What am I missing All I want to do is setup a sound which just continuously loops. Thanks.

• Windows Forms What installer phase are registry values written?

  I have a VB.NET project with a deployment project. The local admin will have a separate INF file to customize a few parameters, and that INF file will reside somewhere on the network, where users will install from. Upon user installation, I want parameters to be read from that file and written into the registry. I wrote a custom action to do this, but am running into difficulty ..... I would look for the INF file at [SourceDir]\<INF filename>. However, I don't know how to get that value at install time. So in the deployment project, registry editor, I have a registry string set to [SourceDir]. Then my custom action just reads that from the registry, opens the INF file, and writes those values into the r ...Show All

• Architecture Localication - Numbers/dates - Responsibility of UI Tier or Business Tier?

  Hi forum I'm developing a business tier/layer for a web based UI. I would like the UI to be able to run in any culture but I'm guessing that I need to store dates and numbers one way. My business tier can be located on another server. (via remoting). I understand that it is the CurrentCulture on the thread that affects for formatting of dates and numbers. I would like to make it possible for both dates and numbers to be formatted when displayed in the browser - based on the browser language setting. How do I store these numbers and dates Should the UI do some handling before sending the dates or numbers to the business tier or is it the responsability of the business tier Should I just make sure that the thread on the b ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System <ALLOWEXISTINGVALUE> not valid for System.Reason

  Can anyone explain why <ALLOWEXISTINGVALUE> is not allowed for System.Reason. I would think this is just an ordinary string field. Thanks. Robert, So what is the trick to creating new fields My attempts at creating new fields end up with TF26201: This work item has unsupported fields, or user does not have permissions. I am suspicious that Microsoft.VSTS... or System... are sacred places you can not add fields to, so I have tried creating them in MPRI.mynewname.  But still no dice.  It may be because I still have one field Microsoft.VSTS.Scheduling.EstimateOfWork that I haven't changed to MPRI.EstimateOfWork. But there doesn't seem to be any way to det ...Show All
