  Hello, I'm a new guy in the world of VB and I'm trying to create a line control similar to the line controls that is in autocadd. Could anybody to get me started in the right direction Hi, Being able to click the line is quite complicated. But I guess you can do it using a Usercontrol.

• SQL Server merge agent not started - Start Synchronizing disabled

  i'm running a SQL Server 2000 SP42000.8.00.2039, developer. i'm trying to setup a merge replication between the default istance and a named one of the same machine, using the same domain account for both publisher and subscriber. when it comes to "start synchronizing" (right click on the subscriber merge agent), i found it disabled, just like it is running, but it is not (the icon shows a stop sign, even refreshing.) The state is "disactivated". When i stop sync and start it again things don't change. If i setup a "pull" subscription, i get a sequence of a message like "interface not supported" (a translation from italian "Interfaccia non supportata"): after 10 attempts, it stops. i cannot ...Show All

• SQL Server No more datatype TIME in SQL 2005...what to do???

  I understand that SQL 2005 doesn’t support TIME ( which is, for me, incredibly weird). Now, could anyone please help me solve my problem. I want to make it possible to insert into database a start-time for the first runner in a team. And when he finishes, a finish-time. This finish-time I will also use as a start-time for the second runner....a.s.o. Furthermore I want to be able to get the results from the database to present them in several ways. This also means I can't simply insert the time as a string since it won't change hour at every 60 minutes. I have read somewhere that it should be possible to create own datatypes, but I have absolutely no knowledge to that. Could anyone please help me ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. How do you implement Fog into a scene?

  Hi All, I have finally got some 3D up and running so things are whizzing about (which is always fun to watch... for a while, yeah I know, small things...) and I was wondering if anyone had any examples of putting fog into a scene. I tried last night and succeeded in turning all my meshes to white, not matter how far away they were from the camera. No matter what I did to the values, nothing changed. As always, any help is greatly appreciated. Cheers As well as setting those device renderstates, you also need to compute the amount of fog in your vertex shader. Typically that will just be the distance from the camera, which you output using the FOG shader semantic, but you could use some more sophisticated calculations to i ...Show All

• Visual C++ C2248 error

  Hello. I have read the other posts concerning the C2248 error, however could not find a solution.

Im hoping this is a simple setting on my part where if it errors on something as simple as a index to be dropped does not exist then it will continue to the next line in the script Thanks Scott What about first checking in your script if the index you want to drop already exists IF Object_ID('SomeIndexName') IS NOT NULL DROP INDEX BLAH HTH, jens Suessmeyer. --- http://www.sqlserver2005.de --- ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System What is "citizinship mindset" ?

  I have read this page: http://guides.brucejmack.biz/MSF%20Agile%20Beta%202%20PT/Wss/Process%20Guidance/Supporting%20Files/Mindsets.htm But still don't understand what "citizinship mindset" is.

• Windows Forms FillByParameter - using parameters with the Select Statement

  Hi, I want to open a new form (form2) and have it load only the data for an item chosen from a datagridview in form1. In the constructor, I'm passing the ID of the record chosen to the constructor of the form2 in the field mID. Form2's data is in a master-detail relationship. So I have created a dataset, dsSermons21, that contains the 4 other child tables. In dsSermons21, I have created a new parameterized Select query call FillBySermonID. Now, If I understand this correctly, I use the following to fill the Sermons table of the dataset: DsSermons21.Sermons.FindBySermonID(mID) I do not know where it got FindBySermonID from, then name of the new query is FillBySermonID, but that is what came up in intellisense.

• Smart Device Development UdpClient - Compact and Full Framework

  Hi, Please take a look at the code below. When compiled as a Windows application (.NET 2.0), the Send method will not succeed when there is no network connection. The System.Net.Sockets.SocketException (A socket operation was attempted to an unreachable host) is thrown. However, when the same code is compiled with Compact Framework 2.0, the Send method always succeeds! Is there a way to mimic the Full Framework behavior on Compact Framework My application is supposed to send GPS messages using UDP. If the sending fails (no connectivity for example), the message should be stored, and send later. Since the messages will be sent quite frequently, I don't want to manually check connectivity before each call of the Send method. ...Show All
