• Visual Studio Express Editions Showing "1 000" instead of "1000" in textbox.

  OIkai, this might be very simple, but I have a textbox with "1000000" in it. And I want it to be shown as "1 000 000". There must be a way to get the data out and change it, and then put it back in the textbox again. Anyone know how And question 2, I found a old vb6 code: If KeyAscii > 26 Then If InStr("0123456789", Chr(KeyAscii)) = 0 Then KeyAscii = 0 Its for making a texbox accept numbers only, but it keeps giving me error on KeyAscii. How can I make it work in vb exp bankbalanse.Text = Trim(Format(CLng(bankbalanse.Text), "# ### ### ### ###")) It made this error: System.StackOverflowException was unhandled But the strange thing is, it only make that error when I add more than one of those codelines.

• .NET Development SqlConnection Problem

  I have a program that connects to a SQL database. The program works fine when run on the same machine that has the database, it also works when run under the debugger (Visual Studio 2005) on a different machine.

• Visual Studio How to change value for %RecursiveDir ?

  When deploying our solution we have to copy different folders into a deploy folder. As the application runs on compact framework too, we have special directories for net and netcf within the source directory. Directories only needed for net have the suffix .pc whereas directories needed for netcf have the suffix .mobil e.g: C:\Test\A\config.pc\*.* C:\Test\A\forall\*.* C:\Test\device.pc\*.* C:\Test\interface.mobile\*.* In the deploy folder i do not need the suffix anmore. The example above should be deployed that way for net: C:\Deploy\A\config\*.* C:\Deploy\A\forall\*.* C:\Deploy\device\*.* This is what I do in my msbuild file ($(Suffix) holds pc or mobile): <!-- Create Item --> <CreateItem Include="$(MSBuildProjectDirectory ...Show All

• SQL Server Msg 3910 Transaction context in use by another session.

  We are testing SQL 2005 SP1 in a multi-server environment. Stored Procedure 'A' is executed on server.database 'A'. It calls SP 'B' on server.database 'B'. SP 'B' in turn calls SP 'C' which is back on server.database 'A'. So in essence A calls an SP on B, which calls an SP back on A. Linked servers are present on both servers to enable these cross-server calls. This scenario works in our SQL 2000 environment. In the SQL 2005 environment, we get the Msg 3910 message stated in the subject. Is this truly a 'loopback server' situation and if so, why does it work in SQL 2000 Did this functionality change in SQL 2005 In SQL 2005 SP1 This may seem to be a klugy way to do things but unfortunately, it is a core part of our application securi ...Show All

  Hello All, Each pushpin I map has a custom image and that image shows up fine in 2D mode but is replaced with an orange thumbtack or something in 3D mode. Has enyone seen this before is there a solution TIA Andrew You need to use a full path, not a relative path for your image URI.  The 3D control doesn't know the base URI to add to relative paths.  This should be documented in the SDK. Also, the 3D control does not have access to any local files (security restriction). ...Show All

I am installing Visual Studio 2005 and MSDN from a network share and I keep getting "You have inserted the incorrect disk. Please insert MSDN disk 1."

It is the MSDN that keeps failing..) Thanks..
