• Visual Studio Express Editions SImple Calculator problems

  can anyone help me on how to make decimal point and to also perform the order of operations .. doing more then one problem at once such as 2+3*4 thank you SCott Rewrite your button code to concatenate the digit to the current Textbox display. For example: Private Sub btn1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btn1.Click Txt1.Text = Txt1.Text & "1" End Sub You can do the same for the Decimal button, but you will have to check that the Textbox doesn't already contain a decimal point. ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Rehosting Designer and name change through properties grid

  I have rehosted the designer and attached a property grid to it. I use the Name of the root activity as the name of the assembly when I compile. However, when changing the name of the root activity through the properties grid, the Metadata value for Name does not get updated. So when I compile, it compiles under the old name. The workflow does however get serialized with the correct name Is there something I missing with this or is this just a bug in WWF Original Name - CustomWorkflow New Name - SampleWorkflow Compile - Assembly Name = CustomWorkflow.dll Serialize to xoml. Deserialize xoml and Compile - Assembly Name = SampleWorkflow.dll Hi Nate, Are you still having this issue on t ...Show All

• Visual C# Does 'foreach' contain an accessable index?

  Hello, Just to understand C#. Can I use the 'foreach' loop to get an index back from an array //Example foreach ( Citizen citizen in MyTown ) { if ( citizen.firstName == mySearchedFirstName ) { return citizen.lastName; //<=== here I would like to get the index back === } return null; } regards, Henk Just so you know: The reason "foreach" cannot give you an index is because it can be used to iterate over collections that do not provide and indexing operator. For example, the elements of a Linked List cannot be accessed via an index, but it can be iterated over via "foreach". ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Event procedure changes name when I cut and paste control to different area

  If I cut and paste the control I get a number added to the event procedure: First it was: Private Sub btnGetList_Click( ByVal sender.. If I cut and paste once, it is: Private Sub btnGetList_Click_1( ByVal sender... And again: Private Sub btnGetList_Click_2( ByVal sender... But all my code remains in the first instance of the procedure. Is this normal It sure seems annoying. Actually it's a good thing. The control you paste is a new control. If you desire the same code for each control: There will be a handles clause at the end Handles ControlName.Click This can be extended thusly: Handles ControlName.Click, ControlName2.Click, ControlName3.Click ...Show All

• Visual Studio VSS Server 6.0 & 2005 Side By Side

  Can I install VSS 2005 Server on a machine thats running the VSS 6.0 server process Will there be conflicts in the registry, databases etc What surprise!!! I was thinking VSS server was kind of service or so. But, looking closer, it's ok, there is no service under this, just a file structures. So..

• SQL Server OK to use one stored procedure for inserts and updates?

  I have seen a couple examples where the person used ONE stored procedure (call it SaveOrder ) was used for both Inserts and Updates. This would be opposed to having a InsertOrder and UpdateOrder . I'm assuming there was some branching code in there to determine whether the record already existed or not. My question is this: Is this a good practice It seems like it might save some duplicate coding. Just looking for some opinions- Thanks, Jim Hi, I would alway prefer a more granular solution rather than a monolithic approach. Otherwise procedure could get (depending on your code) hard to read and debug. HTH, Jens K. Suessmeyer. --- http://www.sqlserver2005.de --- ...Show All
