• Visual Basic accessing dataset fields

  Hi, I can not get this for the life of me. I want to get a list (array) of all the values in a certain column in a dataset, how can I go about doing this Also, what is the format for getting the value in a certain field from a dataset Like "Row x, Column y" where x and y are specified by a unique row value and unique column name. If you know of a good tutorial for Visual Basic & using SQL (Binding sources, datasets, etc), please let me know as I think I'm having a more difficult time grasping it than other aspects. Thanks!

• Software Development for Windows Vista State Machine Workflow Fault & Cancel Handling issues

  Dear all, I have written a state machine workflow, hosted by an asp.net 2.0 web site using WinWF Beta 2.2. Having got this up and running successfully, I have been working on fault handlers for it and seem to be having trouble with them: 1) It is a major irritation that I cannot apparently define a fault handler for the whole state machine workflow (which can be done in a sequential workflow). Is there any way to provide such a global fault handler, which can then be overridden by local ones inside the states 2) My workflow has ended up with two types of state, which can be thought of as "doing" states, implemented with a state initialization activity which simply carries out activities then sets the next state, and & ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Is it possible to get the uncoerced value of a coerced dependency property

  Hello, I would like to know whether it is possible to find out what the underlying uncoerced value is for a coerced value. Is the possible at all, even for the DependencyObject which owns the coerced DependencyProperty, or is the only solution to maintain a separate internal variable set whenever the CoerceValue callback is called Thanks, Alex In at least one circumstance there is. If you call .GetLocalValue(yourDPIDField) on the relevant instance, that method will return the local value as set before coercion. The rub with that is that GetLocalValue does what it says: it returns a value only if the value was specifically set through .SetValue by some means. That could include XAML attribute, in co ...Show All

• Visual Basic printing Chart control

  I have a form with a Chart control ( AxMSChart20Lib.AxMSChart ) on it. I wish to click on a button on the form and print out the chart control picture (the graph shown in the chart control). I have looked everywhere for an answer and have come up with nothing can anyone help I am using VB.NET 2005 The old chart control doesn't support printing nor tricks like Control.DrawToBitmap(). You could capture the image off the screen but it is error prone and is going to look awful on paper. You'll need to move to a commercial product, the Dundas chart control supports printing and looks pretty and capable. ...Show All

• Visual C# Managed Code Vs Unmanaged Code?

  I have read a lot on managed code and unmanaged code,now what I could understand is that any code that targets the .net framework is Managed code (right ),which inturn means its under the control of the CLR @ runtime. Assuming the above as true, I suppose unmanaged code does not target the framework or it does not come under the control of CLR @ runtime Can somebody explain this if possible with code example so that I can undersand the difference...thx. Can you give a small example on how this is implemented And is it possible to find out if the code your currently executing is running as managed or un-managed (Some method in System.Reflection perhaps ) thanks, ...Show All

• .NET Development Visual Studio does not recognize .Net 3.0 or WPF

  I have Visual Studio 2005, and have downloaded and installed the .Net 3.0 framework and the WPF extensions for Visual Studio. However, VS is still running 2.0, and not recognizing that the framework is upgraded. I see no changes in my control or project options indicating that WPF is installed, though control panel says both are present. This happens at work (VS Pro) and at home (VS Standard) under XP SP2. Any suggestions Lisa Morgan I have already downloaded and installed both the .Net 3.0 framework and the extensions for Visual Studio. But VS still tells me (in help, about) that I am running on 2.0, and I see nothing in the IDE to indicate additional functionality of WPF or WCF. I DO see new WW ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Microsoft.DirectX.AudioVideoPlayback.Audio - File LOCK

  This is interesting and I really need some help please. While using this namespace to play an mp3 file, one might call this method. audioPlayer = Microsoft.DirectX.AudioVideoPlayback. Audio .FromFile(fileToPlay); You would then just call audioPlayer.Play(); Here's the problem: This object does not support playing a file from a memoryStream, but a physical file. So if your media is in a database for example, you must write the file to the hard drive and then play it. So far so good. However, once that file has played through this object and you direct it to play the "next sound", you CANNOT delete the first one! DirectX seems to keep a handle on the file you created. Thus, in a multi-sound application the temporary files ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. CDXUTDialogResourceManager cannot be deleted and recreated.

  This bug took three days to track down. It's nasty! The sympthom was that every time I moved the D3D window from my primary monitor to my secondary monitor or vice-versa, D3DXCreateFont() would have a protection fault. Eliminating all of the fonts in my code reveals that other D3D functions were also throwing protection faults. It turns out that the fault has nothing to do with D3D, but is instead in ~CDXUTDialogResourceManager() of all places! What happens is that the destructor calls two obscene little functions: CUniBuffer::Unitialize() and CDXUTIMEEditBox::Unitialize() which unloads some .dlls !!! These uninitializers are not mirrors of functions that were in the constructor. The dlls were loaded by the CUniBuffer constructor and ...Show All
