However, if you update stuff in 1 project, it won't automatically update the other project. It will help to know more details on your specific scenario. ...Show All

• SQL Server Can I use the foreach loop to obtain the sub folder names within a folder?

  I have a set of folders with the following structure: MainFolder 1999 SpreadsheetA.xls SpreadsheetB.xls SpreadsheetC.xls 2000 SpreadsheetA.xls SpreadsheetB.xls SpreadsheetC.xls etc. Is there a way that I can use the foreach loop container to loop the sub folders My plan was to get the folder name and path into a variable, use this to build the connection string for each file in this folder, carry out the upload for that folder, then move onto the next folder and do the same thing, but I cannot see a way to do this. Thanks, Sam If the list of folders is known and finite then you can just type them into the ForEac ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Raising an Event from a Workflow

  Hi, I have a very simple question. I have a WinFX Browser Application. Through this I start a Workflow and add a Service into this. The Browser Application Registers for Events in the Service. This event is raised by the Workflow itself when a certain condition is met. For some reason the Workflow raises the event but the code on the Browser Application never gets executed. I have searched everywhere for an example of this kind but could not find any. Could someone tell me how to get this done. Thanks I'm trying to do the same thing as you mentionned, but this time, passing parameters to the event. Is there a way to do that What I mean is to call the service directly in the code behind file insead of ...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 How do I add projects to my solution

  In VS 2003 I just created a blank solution, then right click on it and choose add project. I could do this several times to set up my projects within my solution before I started coding. Now in 2005 when I create a blank solution and right click on it in solution explorer and add new project, the solution disappears and is replaced by the project. The only way I can find to add projects is to first add folders to the solution (seriously tedious when you consider the old version did this for me) Is there some menu I missed, or did they really take 10 steps back on this version Go to Tools/Projects and Solutions/General and make sure that "Always show solution" is checked. This should keep the solution icon visibl ...Show All

I trid to code the overloading method: istream& operator >> (istream& is, const Location& addLocationObject) { return is >> addLocationObject; } The compiler does not complain, but there is a error at runtime when the >> operator is called: "Unhandled exception at 0x00414219 in C++Project.exe: 0xC00000FD: Stack overflow." and it's pointing at the second line of the method above.
