• Visual Studio Team System DDL for which database?

  I know that only Visual Studio Architect Team edition generates SQL. My question is for which databases can DDL be generated. Specifically, is it generated for: o MySQL o MS Access o SQL Server other If, as Richard suggested, you're asking about which databases are supported by Team Edition for Database Professionals, the answer for our initial release is that we support SQL Server. As we look to the next release, one of the primary considerations is supporting additional databases. I don't believe that there's a list of what will be supported out of the box, and what won't, but I know there is discussion of allowing third parties to plug in their own providers. ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Camera woes

  Hi all. I'm having trouble with my camera class. All is well (walking, elevating, strafing) until I pitch up a bit and start yawing. What happens is, as I'm yawing, the camera seems to be rolling in the direction of the yaw on its own. This only happens when I have my camera type set to FPS, where I'm trying to limit to yawing on the world Y axis. The FREE type works as intended and yaws on it's own local Y (Up) axis. Any ideas Before: http://img435.imageshack.us/img435/2787/ss1ja1.jpg After pitching about 35 degrees up and then yawing to the left several times around: http://img282.imageshack.us/img282/4946/ss2aq7.jpg I pasted my Yaw, Pitch, and BuildView methods below.

• Internet Explorer Development IE7 and issue with TrackPopupMenu(Win32) within ActiveX-control

  Hello. I have a trouble with calling win32-function TrackPopupMenu from ActiveX in new Interner Explorer 7 (RC1 and all betas). The situation is: I have some ActiveX-control - "MyPopupMenu".

• Windows Forms Culture of DatePicker

  Hello Is it possible to change culture and language of DatePicker Thank you (Moderator: Thread moved to this forum for better responses) Hello All. worldhello: Um, OK, never mind. The short version is that if you want a DateTimePicker to be displayed in Hebrew, then the user must have Hebrew selected as the language choice for date and time formatting in Control Panel -> Regional and Language Settings -> Regional Options. The longer version is that DateTimePicker (and MonthCalendar) are Windows Common Controls. They use the user setting in Control Panel regardless of any assignment that you make to CurrentCulture or CurrentUICulture. See this article for more information. HTH. ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Avoid UserControl Initialization

  Hi I'm writing an application with a rule based view. For a admin-user 2 UserControl's will be shown, for a non-privileged user only 1 UserControl. Both of them will open the same Page / Window, which imports these 2 UserControl's. My question is: How could I avoid an initialization of the hidden / not shown UserControl directely in XAML without any "code behind" This is nessecary because these UserControl's will read data over the network during the initialization process. Thank you for reading my problem. Manuel you can try placing a contentcontrol on the window and do something like this <Window.Resources> <DataTemplate x:Key="dt1"> <local:UserControl1></local:UserContro ...Show All

• Visual C# How can I Instantiate a dynamic array and still be dynamic after?

  Hello, I have a program which pulls config information in from a file. The files length will vary depending on how many items are configured in the application. the application stores the config information in an array while reading the file. since the file's length varies the array must be dynamic after instantiated. From all the information I have found I know I can prep a dynamic array but I cannot find any info on instantiating it dynamically. All the info shows is instantanting the dynamic array to a static one. anyone have information on keeping the array dynamic Either that or is there a way to determine how many lines in the file are left from the current Stream position It would have to be in lines, not characters.

• Visual C# Help with a 'Delete' MessageBox

  Hi I am pretty new to C# and VS2005 so I am sorry if this sounds like a stupid question but; I am trying to create a messagebox like the one that appears when you attempt to delete something in windows. Form1 has fields for editing data into an SQL database which works fine from a control within Form1. I have created a new form (form2) and can get it to display no problem but what I can’t do is get the button on form2 to run the script for deleting the data on form1.
