  Hello, When I click an element on my form, it doesn't lose it's focus by leave the element.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Service Host Endpoint Addressing

  I have my wcf service created and hosted in my Windows service. When I created my service host instance I had to provide a Uri to the constructor. I would rather that the service host use the address specified in the app.config file that I generated. It seems, though that the service host address is not being set by what is provided in the app.config file. The behaviors and bindings appear to be taking from the app.config file. How do you force the wcf service to use the address in app.config even though you have to provide a uri to its constructor I'm passing a singleton object (rather than a type) as well for event handling. Does this have ramifications to how the address is established Would you normally not create the service ho ...Show All

• Visual C++ Unexpected namespace pollution in VC8 (bug?)

  Running Visual Studio 2005 Professional, no service pack applied. Here is a code snippet distilled from some code that fails due to unexpected namespace conflicts: namespace ns1 { typedef unsigned long ns_t; struct base { ~base() {} }; } namespace ns2 { using namespace ns1; struct dummy : public base { }; } namespace ns3 { struct dummy2 { dummy2() {} ns2::dummy m_dummy; }; } ns_t ns_check; //compilation should fail here!! The above code compiles fine on my machine. The problem is that , for some reason, ns_t is visible at the global namespace when it shouldn't be. Strangely, removing base::~base will cause the behavior I expect (compilation error). I'm not sure exactly where the bug is and what a workaround ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Persisting type 'object'

  Hi again, has anyone tried (or discovered) how we can use Linq to Sql (notice I've used the new name there ) to persist objects into VARBINARY columns I know its not a nice requirement, but I want to be able to do it. Regards, D Hi Matt,      even better would be the ability to persist generic types, that way I would be able to strongly type the return value to T. I really wanted to have a generic class, which i could then define as CustomProperty<T>, where T is a known interface, unfortunately I can't then seem to define a Table<CustomProperty<T>> in my datacontext derived class. i have however found the solution to the original problem, a sample is below; &nbs ...Show All

• Windows Forms Sending email in vb.net 2005(using vb) not with smtp but the users outlook (mapi)??

  I have an application that I need to send mulitiple emails from. There are about 10 users who will have permission. However my IT Group has locked down the smtp server and will not allow "Applications" use the smtp method. I remember in vb6 I used mapi to send emails using outlook that was on the users computer thus giving my IT folks traceability of who is sending what and not having to set up 10 people on the smtp permissions. Can this still be done using outlook(mapi) they are only allowing server to relay email, no desktops will be allowed to send relay email. I did a project a few years ago where I used mapi in vb6 to send email and it was using their outlook not the smtp ser ...Show All

• SharePoint Products and Technologies Switching Web Applicaiton Ports

  Is it possible to switch the port of a web application after it is created For instance, I have a web app that is currently on port 82. I would like to switch it over to port 80 and add a host header in IIS to access that particular site. It seems that you just can't reconfigure IIS to do this. Sharepoint is still wants to see the web app on the port that it was created under. If it is not possible I suppose I can just take care of it with DNS. http://blog.henryong.com/2007/01/17/alternate-access-mapping-in-sharepoint/ ...Show All
