• Visual FoxPro Creating an exe from the Control Panel

  Hello, I have finished my firs application and I have troubles with generating an exe to be installed in the customer’s PC. I’ve accomplished all the requirements seemingly for example to copy the dll that indicates the help of VFP, in same the directory where the application is executed, and to start up from an initial program that after calling to the form from this program, I`ve addedd the sentence of READ EVENTS at the end, I execute It and can’t see anything. The exe run like a process in memory (I do check it with the task Administrator of Windows XP). If I have an open sesion of VFP, it works, but if I close it, It does not (AND the client doesn't have installed VFP) Thank you for your support Regards, Alberto ...Show All

• Visual Basic Option Strict On disallows implicit conversions from 'Utilities.MessageBox.Products' to 'Utilities.MessageBox.Products'

  This error has me completely baffled. We have a property on one of our UserControls which takes something of type Utilities.MessageBox.Products (we wrote our own message box for the purposes of our program). Public Enum Products As Integer Prod1 = 1 Prod2 = 2 Prod3 = 3 End Enum It is all declared properly, everything has a unique type. The compiler tells me that I should cast it: Me.Sheet.Product = CType(Utilities.MessageBox.Products.Prod1, MessageBox.Products) Which gives me the exact same compiler error on the first argument into CType (how can you get a conversion type error inside a cast at compile time !). Anyway, this makes no sense, something is seriously wrong. Has anyone encountered this before I don't want to turn off ...Show All

• Audio and Video Development how to use the different controller events for animation ?

  Hi, Can anyone please tell how to use different controllers events to animate some image move using different controllers please give examples using controller Apis. Thanks in advance.. Basically you would register an event handler for controller_key_down and based on the value of the key property, use the animated property api to move the object around. You can also do it through markup if you like, but it would be a lot more complicated. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Sizing items in a web browser box

  My question, I have a web browser box accepting a RSS feed or any web information for that matter, is there anyway to size the incoming feed to fit in the size web browser box I place on a form. Thanks IrishWolf, Do you mean that you want to save the feedback from you websites Database is the best choice like SQL Server or some other DBMS.

• Visual Basic form access and memory leaks

  I have a class that when certain public members are called, opens a form that is nothing but a docked textbox. The class dumps output to this window. If the user clicks on the "X" in the upper right corner, the form is disposed. What I want to do, is to continue to append text to the text box the next time any public member of the class is called. If the form was disposed, I'd like to open a new copy of it and start with a clean slate. What I came up with is: If mdioOut Is Nothing Then mdioOut = New frmMDIOOutput ElseIf mdioOut.IsDisposed Then mdioOut = New frmMDIOOutput End If My concern is that the second New frmMDIOOutput will dereference the first one before it is finalized, leavin ...Show All

• SQL Server SSIS Import/Export flat file

  Firstly, I hope this question isn't asked too frequently but I found no existing reference to this situation.... I had a bunch of stored procedures in SQL 2k which imported and exported data to and from flat files using TEXTPTR, READTEXT, UPDATETEXT etc... The flat files were continuously changing so the filepath was a parameter for the sp. The reason I used the pointer to flat files is because I didn't want to load the files in memory before commiting them ie. with TEXTPTR and UPDATETEXT I can import a 1Gb binary file 80000 bytes at a time and keep (precious) memory usage down. I was accessing this procs from a C# application. Since these methods are going to be phased out by the guys at MS what is the best way of importing/exportin ...Show All
