• Visual Studio Team System Difference with Database project

  Hello, There is a Database type of project in VS2005 in C# and also in Other Project types. What's the difference between these types and VSTE for DB Pro Thanks Well, I saw these webcasts, I knew features of DB Pro. But the question is the "principal" difference. From DB Pro developers' point of view. As far as I understand previous project types can handle database scripts, deploy etc. What are the key differences I didn't use previous types in my practice. I only view it when VS2005 was appeared. That's why I can't make the complex comparison. Thanks. ...Show All

• .NET Development Moving Chat sample from Http to Ipc channel...

  I'm trying to convert the "Remoted Events (Chat) Sample" ( http://support.microsoft.com/Default.aspx id=312114 ) from Http to Ipc channels in .net V2. Since everything is setup in config files, I have only changed the server and client app.config files (see below). Unfortunately I'm getting a RemotingException in the client with the message: "Failed to connect to an IPC Port: The system cannot find the file specified.". Is anybody able to shed any light on this I've used IpcChannel before, but never set them up from config files.

• Visual C++ Thread Problem

  Hi All, i am working on a dialer application. presently i am using one wait for event function. i am waiting for 500 milisecond for any event, after getting the event, i got the channel associated with the event and then take actions on that channel as per event and wait again for another event. e.g. for (;;) { ret = sr_waitevt(500); /* 1/2 second */ if (ret != -1) { /* i.e. not timeout */ process_event(); } now the same events are required on parallel 30 channels. but i have only this one function to get any event. after getting event, in process event function i can get the channel associated and take some actions on that channel. can u guide me the better way of doing this thing. i am a little bit confused in ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Question regarding creating, saving and emailing EXCEL document

  Hi, I am using C# and VSTO to populate an EXCEL document from a database. I then want to email this EXCEL document as an attachment to a specified number of users. Everything works except when I try to open the attachement. I receive the following error "The file could not be accessed. Try one of the following: Make sure the specified folder exists, Make sure the folder that contains the file is not read-only, Make sure the file name does not contain any of the following characters.......". I tried sending a file, .xls and .txt, that already exists and the attachment opens up correctly. I think VSTO is not properly closing excel before emailing it. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this Below is the code: ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Square-Screen support and still have Device Orientation Awareness ?!

  Hi there! I am trying to port an elder MFC C++ Application to Visual Studio 2005. In the process of doing this i added Device Orientation Awareness and DPI Awareness.. This all works fine, but now the catch is, square devices won't work anymore. I naturally had to add a horizontal and vertical layout for every single dialog form. I really don't want to have another layout for square devices and in most cases the number of controls on the layout won't fit on a square device anyhow. So i was wondering, whether there is an easy way to say: If square device, enable a horizontal or vertical scrollbar. As long as the program was not Device Orientation Aware and DPI Aware i got that scrollbar automatically. Now it's gone, but i would nee ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Newly add entities cannot be selected prior to SubmitChanges()

  I assume the answer to this is going to be the same answer as I received in this post: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=1106156&SiteID=1 But, I want to be sure. If I add an entity to a table, I can't retrieve that entity back out until I call SubmitChanges(). Here is an example: Northwind db = new Northwind(@"Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=Northwind;Integrated Security=SSPI;"); db.Customers.Add( new Customer { CustomerID = "LAWN", CompanyName = "Lawn Wranglers", ContactName = "Mr. Abe Henry", ContactTitle = "Owner", Address = "1017 Maple Leaf Way", ...Show All

• Visual C# getting data from rfid - reader

  hello! how can i get data from rfid reader, which is in rs232 - port when reader reads the tag, tags ID should get to Windows form. my code opens the serial port, but what then I have a similar question. Here is the scenario. On a client application ( C#) 1. I need to connect to an RFID reader thro IP Address and Port 2. Read data from the reader The frist part, I could do by creating a socket and connecting to the device thro' the IP Endpoint. The question is, do i need to have any hardware specific API's to get data from the reader or can i just read the buffers as specified above ( my_socket.Read(read_buff, 8)) I think i am missing some fundamental piece here.

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Get text from _WwG Class

  Hi, Can I get text from office word document window which has class name = _WwG. I can’t use VBA for this. I want to use windows API for this. And I am using VC++.NET for programming. Thanks Priyank Hello Priyank, You cannot access the contents of an office document using the Windows API. In order to get the text of a document, you must access it via the Office API. This can be done using VC++ and COM. If you are using [unmanaged] VC++, you will need to import the typelib for Word (MSWORD.OLB) and access the document via the exposed interfaces. You can use the GetActiveObject method to get an instance of the Word Application that is already running. However, I must strongly caution you th ...Show All
