• Visual Basic IDE says OK but compilation fails

  I am developing a web site/system using VS2005, ASP.NET and VB.NET. Suddenly I ran into a problem where I cannot build my site any more. The message is: ..path../UserOwner.aspx.vb(1278,0): error BC30451: Name 'a3333' is not declared. BUT the (in this case) label a3333 is declared. When I edit the behind code there is also no "bubble lines" telling me there is a problem. But as soon as I hit Run - I get this message in this code. It look's like I have hit a "limit" as all objects created "before" in this page works perfect, but all objects "after" fails in the compilation. This happens around the 180th object on this page. If I as example drop a new button object on the page - set's the ID ...Show All

• Visual Studio Source control issues when converting 2003 solution to 2005 (ClearCase)

  I'm trying to convert a Visual Studio 2003 solution to 2005. The project is a Windows Application and I'm using ClearCase for source control. I made it through the conversion process after getting through a few hickups, but now I'm stuck. VS2005 treats most of the converted projects and the files contained within those projects as though they're not under source control, even though they actually are. Within my solution, there are 12 projects. When viewing the Solution Explorer, only one project and its contents are recognized as being under source control. Check in/out, etc. commands work as expected for these files. For the 11 other projects, the files can be editted without first checking out through VS, but attempts to save fail since ...Show All

• SQL Server Combining multiple subreports into a single report

  The goal is to produce a single PDF consisting of a number of subreports. Some are landscape, others are portrait. The subreports may also be run as independent reports. The master report that contains them defaults to the width of the widest subreport, which is landscape. This causes all portrait subreports to spill over producing blank pages. Are there any work-arounds to concatenate multiple, single report PDFs into a single PDF and have page numbering too Thanks! The code sample above should have a subscript in brackets but I guess that is also the symbol for an idea. How funny! ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL Service Broker : "Task Scheduler"

  Hi, I'm looking to run a "job" on a SQL database regularly (like scheduled by a "task scheduler") to updated my database. It appears I can use SQL Service broker to run such a job.

• Visual Studio Find dialogs do not show up anymore but still function

  I was working in VS today, and everything was working fine for quite some time. But then at one point I tried to access the Find dialog by pressing Ctrl-F, but no dialog popped up. The main window still grayed out like it was being pushed to the back, but nothing came up on top (or in the task bar). I could still type in a word to search for and hit enter and it would search, but that can only get you so far. I closed the app and restarted multiple times, but no change. I checked in regedit for some kind of key that would affect this, but nothing sprung out at me. (There was even a "Find" subdirectory in the VisualStudio registry, but nothing interesting in it) Has anyone ever seen this Any suggestions Thanks in advance. ...Show All

• Visual C++ loading dynamically a DLL built with VC++ 6.0 by an an exe file built with Visual Studio 2005

  Hi guys Is it possible to load dynamically a dll that has been compiled and linked with VC6.0 by an exe file built by Visual studio 2005 nota: This dll exports only "C" style functions ( no class ) During the tests I've made, it seems that the GetProcAddress function fails to find the exported functions when the exefile and the library where not built with the same VC. any idea Regards Be sure to declare the exported DLL methods 'extern "C"' so the names don't get mangled. If you're not sure what those names might look like, use Dumpbin /exports on the DLL. GetProcAddress has to use the exact same name as appears in the Dumpbin output. They'll have a leading underscore if the method was ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Compatibility

  I am a student taking a Visual Basic.Net class at my school. So in order to be able to work on it at home, I downloaded and installed the Visual Basic Express Edition 2005. However, my school has the standard version of Visual Basic 2003 installed on all the computers. Whenever, I save a program in the 2005 edition, and then try to switch back to the older version, the code has not many, but a few small errors that prevent the application from debugging correctly. Is there any way where I can freely switch back and forth between the two versions Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. 2003 / 2005 had language changes and project file format changes. 2005 uses partial classes to split the UI Gene ...Show All
