• .NET Development Any CPU and Managed C++

  I have a C# smart client built using “Any CPU”, the application references a managed C++ assembly that I’ve compiled into both x86 and x64 dlls.

• Windows Forms Unable to continue. The application is improperly formatted

  I have a big problem with installing a ClickOnce application. I publish the application on the share and I get following error message box if I want to install my ClickOnce application over Publish.htm or directly over setup.exe. Unable to continue. The application is improperly formatted If I open the detail file, I get a lot of descriptions. One description is maybe important: the manifest could be invalid or the file could not be opened.    Somethink is very interesting: I use two accounts. By first account I don’t have problem to install and run my ClickOnce application, but by second account I get this message! But it’s not only the share problem, if I publish the application on localhost (my C:), then I have the s ...Show All

• SQL Server Truncate Logfile

  Dear all, I am using SAP with MSSQl 2005. My transaction logfile is full. I took backup of transaction logfile and it should be truncated and shrink after the backup, but it did nothing. There is no error but the file size remain same. I tried from SQL server management studio selecting database--right click--shrink--file. Then i try to release unused space, shrink, but not worked. I also checked these steps while the SAP system was stopped. Can anyone guide me what to do now Thanks Imran Hasware Log truncation and shrink file are two different things. Truncating the log does not usually result in shrinking the log file, it will remain the same size. If you are really unable to truncate ...Show All

• SQL Server Pass value of report parameter from URL

  Hello I have an ASP.NET application where I can filter data from an SQL DB by certain criterias. Users are now also able to click on a link which redirects them directly to the SQL Server Reporting Services application. What I'd like to have is a possibility to pass an object (as string) from my ASP.NET app to the textbox of the search criteria from the Reporting Services app. Example: - ASP.NET appl.: The user selected a FileId=84 -> then he clicks on the hyperlink to the SQL RS - The SQL RS appl. opens and the textbox FileId is filled with "84" it of course isn't a problem to pass the FileId to the hyperlink the user clicks on, but is it possible that the SQL RS appl. can somehow read it from the URL and pass it to the textb ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Ignoring system tables and procedures

  Is there a way to not import system tables and procedures into a project I believe when the source database you are importing from has the option for system tables and procedures to not be viewed they don't import. Since we are trying to import from our production environment we don't have permissions to change these settings. Also going through and selecting all the system tables and procedures to be skipped is a pain, so maybe giving an option like Ctrl click to click mutiple objects to skip, or shift click to select most of a list, or just anything so you can skip multiple objects more easily. I am importing from a 2000 database into a 2005 project. I guess they look like tables and procedures that ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Wizard generated code running under a transaction.

  Hello people! Please I was wondering if is there any way to use transactions with the code generated by VB 2005 Express Edition Wizards. What I mean is, suppose I have a wizard generated data set called MyStoreSales and whithin it I have (an also wizard generated) table adapter called ClientsTableAdapter. I also created a very simple SQL command which removes an specific client from the table. I've created this SQL command with the wizard (right mouse button on table adapter -> Add Query...) then the wizard generated a new method for me (RemoveClient) into the ClientsTableAdapter. Now, is there any way to execute this method (RemoveClient) under a transaction I've tried the following: 1 Dim tx As Data.SqlClient.SqlTran ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Game Maker Studio .Net

  Howdy, It is time for me to show you all my little toy. Game Maker Studio .Net (GMS.net) is still in early development and I am doing most of the work myself of my days off. The aim of GMS.net is to build an Editor, Engine and Framework based on XNA, and .Net Framework that specializes in building 2d RPGs and RTSs. So why would you be interested in GMS.net … Well if you don’t like RPGs or RTS then you will not be interested. On the other hand this set of tools will greatly improve your productivity if you are interested in build this type of game. Think of it as GSE on steroids! You still use all the great features of XNA, the Content Pipeline, a Visual Studio friendly environment, support for C#.net or VB.net devel ...Show All
