• Windows Forms add image to listview subitem

  Hi, I am trying to add an image to a subitem of my listview , how can I do this if not possible, are there any other alternatives thanks in advance! By default only the root items have images. You should however be able to override this by drawing the subitems yourself. Handle the ListView.DrawSubItem event and add your custom drawing code. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Using CustomTask To Generate BuildNumber

  I've written a custom task to take the build number generated by Team Build and re-format it so there is no decimal between the ISO date and the build number. However, when I launch the build from Visual Studio every second one fails with the below error, if I simply start the build again a new build number gets allocated and it works...

• Windows Forms Default value

  Good Morning: I have a data entry application being developed. I have default values on the input screen whenever the users clicks on the '+' to add a new record. This is currently working now, my defaults are on the SQL Server table, when you add a new record the default values populate the fields on the screen, this is fine. I added another column to the table, set its default value on the SQL Server table side, but when I add a new record, the default does not populate to the table. I think there is another place to set the default value, but I can't remember where or what is involved. Any help appreciated.

• SQL Server Handling errors in SSIS

  When I have an alternet Data Flow in an event handler, caused by a record failing to be inserted due to a unique-key constraint violation, does this increment the number of errors, counting towards the MaximumErrorCount How can I NOT count it as an error The thing is, I need to insert 300,000+ records each day, and some may be duplicates from data already in the table. So I set a unique key constraint on the table, and if during the load, it fails, it will trigger an alernate data flow to load the error records into another table. But if someone tries to load a file that already has been loaded, for example, all the records would be duplicates, which would be equivelant to 300,000+ errors, and I don't want to keep setting the MaximumEr ...Show All

• SQL Server question about different query results with wildcard

  Hi, I'm working with a third party app on SQL Server 2000, and from what I can gather, programmed in C# & VisualFoxPro. When we search with Note contains 94949 we get 571 results, when we search with Note contains 94949* we get 575 results. There should be at least a hundred different entries that start with "94949-1" so I expected the query with the wildcard to return something like 680 results, not an additional four rows. Searching with Note contains 94949-1* got 483 results Note contains 94949-10* got 0 results Could someone explain or point me to more documentation on the difference results we get Thanks Hi Arnie, thanks for your response. My situation is more basic than wha ...Show All

• .NET Development C# to XSD using generics

  Does anyone know if there is a tool like XSD.exe that can be used to generate C# classes from XSD that actually generates generics like List<> in the C# I am trying to create a solution for the large amount of XML my company has, and we would really like the ability to use the features present in generics like ForAll etc. Thanks, John I think xsdobjectgen can generate generic List<>s from xsd. Otherwise you could always use the CodeDom from the generated classes and adjust them to use List<> s instead of arrays. Hope that helps, Christoph ...Show All
