• Visual Studio SKU011.CAB solution

  Go into Registry Editor (Start, Run, "regedit"). Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, Software, Microsoft, Office, 11.0, Delivery. There should be only 1 directory under Delivery, which is your DownloadCode (mine was 90000409-6000-11D3-8CFE-0150048383C9). Select that directory. On the right side of the screen, right-click on CDCache. Change the value to 0. honestly works with out a hitch. Can't thank you enough, Inkhand, for the solution to the SKU011.CAB messages. Worked first time just as you described. I think I "caught" this ailment when I simply went to the MS Office update site about a month ago and downloaded the latest update. Either that, or the Norton Registry cleaner that ran about that time might have ca ...Show All

• Visual C++ Project does not detect code changes in referenced project

  Hi, I have a C# application that has a reference to a managed C++ assembly/project, which contains some managed and some unmanaged C++. At one of my computers, suddenly the C# project no longer detects code-changes in the C++ project, meaning that the dll-files copied to the bin-folder of the C# application is out of date. Facts: Set "Copy Local = true" on the referenced assembly I tested on a different computer, and there this was not a problem - the C++ assembly was properly copied to the target bin-folder of the C# application. If I do "Rebuild solution", the C++ assembly is properly updated in the target bin folder. Visual Studio detects that code changes has been performed, but the "parent" project does not. ...Show All

• SQL Server Multiple Datasets but needs to be tied together

  I am needing to take data from one data set that consists of a list of parts and their stock information. Then I am needing to show any transactions that the individual parts may have had during the time that user defined through the filters. This requires me to have two data sets since I can't do a join between the stocking information and the transactions due to the fact that it is very possible that every part won't have a transaction for each month of each year. Doing a left join still filters down the data too much so thus the need for two data sets. I have these parameters: Vendor, Year, Month, Type of request Vendor and Type of Request is handled through StockInfoDataset. I then need to update the table showing 0 or tra ...Show All
