  After setting up a subscription in reporting services you send an email and it reports that it sent it successfully, but no email is sent. It will send to a file share.

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Assembly '[project name].DLL' must have a shared name to be installed globally

  I am trying to complete a setup package for my excel project in VSTO. I posted here, my project works great.

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Unable to cast object of type 'System.__ComObject' to type 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.ApplicationClass'.

  Hi, I am trying to create an add-in for Outlook 2003, using VS2005, C#2.0, O2003PIA and VSTO. Outlook SP2 is installed.

• Visual C# Convert a byte array to a short array?

  I have the following code that reads a number of bytes into an array then copies them into an array of shorts. // nInt16 is the number of 16 bit integers in being read in the form of bytes // br is a BinaryReader byte[] data = br.ReadBytes(nInt16 * 2); short[] arrInt16 = new short[nInt16]; Buffer.BlockCopy(data, 0, arrInt16, 0, nInt16 * 2); Is there a way, in C#, to read the data into a byte array and then "point" an array of short to it instead of copying the data Similar to what can be done in C++. (I realize that arrays in C# and C++ are totally different data structrures) Thanks. David Have you tried: BitConverter.ToInt16(); function Best Regards, Rizw ...Show All
