• SQL Server PInvokeStackImbalance when exporting report to PDF with chinese chars

  Is there a way around this This is a blocking issue for me. The generated pdf contains ' ' instead of the chinese chars. I use Reporting Services in local mode. Thanks for your help.

• Visual Studio Team System Team Server security and VPN

  I'm the administrator on our TFS system. I have a user who is connecting to our network through VPN. I want them to be able to check in and check out files, basically he is a member of the Contributors group for the project. He can see the project and the solutions in the project, but he can't check anything out. He can't even right click on the project and get a popup menu. Is there a setting for VPN users If it's security, why can he see them, but not do anything with them We were running under workgroup, but now we've upgraded. Thanks.

• Visual Studio Messagebox shifting the focus

  Hi, I am developing a plugin for visual studio.net 2003 . In that i am saving a file explicitly which is my active document with ExecuteCommand .I am flashing a MessageBox before executing save command. It changes the inherent behaviourof visual studio .Inspite of saving the file first it starts saving either .sln file or .vcproj file.After then only it saves the file.If i remove the messagebox it works fine (Save the file only). As per my understanding , the flashed messageBox is shifting focus from active document to some other. Kindly let me know why it is happening. I want the messagebox but do not want to save solution or project files. Thanks in advance, Ruhina Hi Ruhina, I suspect your analysis ...Show All

• Windows Forms Resource Files and Databinding

  Hope some can help me here... I am in the process of internationalizing my app and as a result I am creating a resource file called localstrings.resx. I now want to bind the text of controls like labels etc to these values. I can do it in the forms .designer.vb file by setting the text property to the value of the caption ie me.lblFile.text = My.Resources.LocalStrings.CAP_FILE but each time I use the designer is overwrites this code and replaces it with the string value rather than keeping the pointer How exactly are you supposed to bind the properties to the resx file because when I tried using the databinding property on the control, it wouldn't allow me to bind to the localstrings class Any clues Cheers Mark ...Show All

• Visual C++ How to set file archive bit in C?

  I thought it should be easy to set the file archive bit in C. In C++ with MFC I think I could use CFile::SetStatus. In VB you can set and clear the Attributes property. But with plain C, not .Net, I can read the attribute bit with _A_ARCH from _findfirst but there's no way I can see to set it. I can't just do system("attrib -A...") because that would be too slow for my application. So who knows a good way to set/reset the archive bit in plain C with VS6 Thanks for all hints and help. Thanks. I had to add an "s" but once I found documentation for SetFileAttributes, it worked fine. (and so fast after I posted too, wow :-). ...Show All

• SQL Server Is this considered scale-out?

  I picked back up an effort to get our reporting services DR scenario in place and am having some issues. Our corporate approach for production databases is to back-up the database to the local server disk, copy the back-up files to a remote office and restore the databases on remote DR servers. This process is scripted to run overnight so in the case of failure of the production environment we lose at most one day of work. Now, I would like to set up a parallel scenario for Reporting Services and started with reading a bit of documentation. I read "Moving a Report Server Database to Another Computer" and "Backing Up and Restoring Encryption Keys" and then set to work. I have two instances of SQL Server 2005 Standa ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista How to record from 'Wave' or 'Stereo Mix' in Vista?

  Hi all, I wrote the following question in other forum space but some MSFT guy told me to try this forum for my question. I hope I could get right answer as soon as possible here. On Windows XP or earlier, I could capture the audio stream to the speacker not from the external device (maybe endpoint device in Vista) like the microphone. In other words, D irectSoundCapture was able to capture from the selected recording device/source line in the Windows record control utility or mixerXXX APIs. And if "Wave Out Mix" or "Stereo Mix" or something similar was selected as recording source line, D irectSoundCapture was able to record the audio stream to the speacker. However, I could not find the way to do tha ...Show All
