• Visual Studio Printing CrystalReports

  I want to print a report from CrystalReportViewer directly, like in ReportDocument method PrintToPrinter, whitout showing any PrintDialog. Any suggestions I thought so.. I didn't want to use ReportDocument because I had problems with passing parameters to my report with subreports connected to DataSet . Since ReportDocument.ParameterFields is ReadOnly i tried the method ReportDocument.SetParameterValue("id", 4525) but still I was asked to pass all parameters... I used CrystalReportViewer: ParameterFields myParams = new ParameterFields(); ParameterField myParam = new ParameterField(); ParameterDiscreteValue myDiscreteValue = new ParameterDiscreteValue(); myParam.ParameterFieldName ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Writing only selected frames in AVI?

  Greetings, I'm trying to pass to file writer filter only selected frames from a stream. I have written a transform-in-place filter that passes through only those frames that I need, but file writer writes the same frame several times (instead of writing it only once and waiting for the new frame to arrive). How can I invalidate frame once it has been written so that it won't be written again Thank you in advance, Murom Hi Michel, I have tried to specify AvgTimePerFrame in my GetMediaType() (I have a transform-in-place filter), but for some reason GetMediaType() is not being called at all... How could that be I thought that in the process of negotiations this must be called for sure. Please - any ideas ... Mur ...Show All

• .NET Development Accented Characters

  Hi, I have a question for accented characters. For example, when I am doing regular expression match, how can I match "A" against all accented characters "AAAAaaaaaaa" I have tried all possible options in RegexOption enum, but nothing works so far. I know in SQL Server full-text search you can setup accent insensitive, so I guess I can do the same thing .NET. Could someone please tell me how. Thanks, Ning Ning wrote: This is a funny answer, but seems no way around this. I have grab an exhaustive list for accented characters and litereally match again things like this.

• Visual Studio Help With Installing Visual Studio 2005 Professional

  Could someone please tell me step by step what I need to do in order to install Visual Studio 2005 Professional. I have downloaded the En_vs_2005_Pro_90_Trial.img file but from here I am completely lost. I am looking for some way to install this program into my computer without having to purchase the ISOBuster software or possibly any other software for that matter. I am a total newbie to any sort of file like this (.img) and just about everything I have read concerning it confuses me. I do have a CD burner but I don't even know how to use it, so when I read about burning the VS2005 file to a CD I am lost here also. If someone could explain in laymen's terms how I can install this file into my machine I would greatly appreciate it ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) PeerChannel PNRP LinkLocal IPv6

  That's a lot of topics for one subject line, but then I have a lot of questions. :) I notice that when I use a net.p2p address with PeerChannel that it uses the Global cloud. If I want to register a mesh as LinkLocal only, is this possible with WCF If not, then it seems a possible solution (depending on the application) would be to publish a global cloud name that only a local subnet would be likely to derive. Not being an IPv6 guru myself, is there something I can use on a given link that every member of the link would agree upon without first having communicated with each other Perhaps a custom resolver would be a better solution Finally, is it possible to use a secure PNRP name with the PeerChannel or does it always prepend &qu ...Show All
