• Visual Studio Team System BuildStatusChangeEvent doesn't work.

  After many tries with BisSubscribe I managed to get BuildCompletionEvent working. BuildStatusChangeEvent still doesn't wotk for me. There is no information about it in tbl_notifications table in TfsIntegration database so I assume it isn't fired. BTW, what is the connection between BuildCompletionEvent name and that from tbl_event_type (which includes spaces) And one more thing. Why there are connections between connections between tbl_notification rows describing build completion and tbl_client_event containing XML description of check-in Marcin Your post is intresting have you thought about more filtering such as adding only builds that are marked with Build Quality tags Anyway, the pr ...Show All

  How do I import a library contained within a .DLL file at runtime, given its path Is this even possible in VB.Net 2005 Express Well you see I am making an MMORPG that will need to automatically update itself on the client's computer. To save bandwith, I am moduralizing the graphics library, etc. onto DLL files, so that they are only re-downloaded when they have been updated. Therefore, if I were to import the library at design time, then modify it later on, would the application still function, ot would I need to import it at run-time ...Show All

• Windows Forms app.application Publish file

  Hi, I know this has already been posted, but I need to get it clear in a simple way. The 'app'.application file is created when you publish an application to a web/ftp server, along with other files. The publish.htm page shows a button linking to the 'app'.application file and I can correctly install it, but a friend of mine (and maybe many more people too) get the 'app'.application file contents displayed in his browser. He has the .NET Framework 2.0 installed (installed automatically with VB 2005 Express), and I would like a simple solution to resolve this issue, without reinstalling .NET 2.0 (unless you are sure it resolves it). I also heard that it has to do with MIME types , but I'm not too familiar with this term to unders ...Show All

• Visual Basic Creating an Error Log

  Hello again, I have never done this but I thought it was a good ideal unless you can tell me differentlly. How do you create an error log. I know I will have to create a table for this, but I dont know how to catch the errors and put them in a file for observance at a later time. If someone can point me in a direction,code, article,etc. it would be appreciated Davids Learning do you mean to a db table or a file either way it's nothing hard, whenever you want to log something, either append it to a file, or insert a new row on your table.

• Visual Studio Express Editions clicking a picturebox

  I have about 200 little pictureboxes that start simply white. When they are clicked they turn black. I'm using picture boxes because they are the only thing that can get as small as I need them. I'm hoping for a way that I don't need to re-write the code that many times. I've tried using Private Sub PictureBox1_Click( ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles PictureBox1.Click Me .BackColor = Color.Black End Sub But that changes all the picture boxes and textboxes and forms backcolor to black. I'm hoping there is some simple solution that I'm missing. Thanks for any insight. your code snippet is showing that you are setting the back color of the FO ...Show All
