• .NET Development MSHTML problems.

  I wrote a program that crawls a particular webpage using mshtml.dll and interop.shdocvw.dll. It creates a web browser object and then navigates through a couple pages. It works on my computer and most other newer computers that I try it on, but on some computers it crashes near where it uses the web browser object. It crashes on a computer that is running XP, .NET 2.0, and IE 6.029. All of those specs are the same as on my dev computer (which it works on). I also include the shdocvw.dll with the program when I give it to people to try. Does anyone have any idea what is missing which is causing it to crash Copy the mshtml.dll in same location where exe resides. In your machine the dll is GAC, but not in al ...Show All

• Visual Basic Saving Decimal Values from Text Boxes

  I would like to 'save' a decimal value, entered by the user in a text box, to a field in the binary file. So I thought that's easy, just enter an statement like the following: Prod.W_Condition = CDec (Condition.Text.ToString) And that should do the trick. But apparently nothing is straight forward in Visual Basic. When entering a value such as 1234.56 in the text box, I have the value 123456 (without the decimal notation) being saved in W_Condition structure element. I tried a variety of type convertion such as declaring W_Condition as double and then using Cdbl as convertion function or using Parse.Decimal instead of CDec, but the program just seems to ignore the decimal point in the textbox (e.g Condition.Text) and I end u ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Goal based testing for generic target machine

  I just recently noticed that using goal based testing in a load tests creates a test that is not very portable. Specifically the counter that is stored in the loadtest file is the computername %proc. However the computername is specific, are there some alias/macros available without VS that could represent the local machine so that these tests are a bit more portable Dan Danaucpe ...

• Visual Studio Team System FxCop confusion

  Hi, I'm a bit confused between FxCop 1.35 and and the "managed code analysis" : 1. Do I need VSTS for Software Developers for the VS code analysis to work 2. If not then how do I enable the built-in code analysis I noticed I've got the fxcop folder and rules under "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Team Tools\Static Analysis Tools" - does this help me 3.

• Windows Forms exception during axhost.dispose

  when I create an activeX control at runtime which in fact is a .net control exposed as a com object, the hosting axhost class gets the following exception during its dispose: The object's type must be __ComObject or derived from __ComObject. Parameter name: o When the activeX control is created by other means (e.g. visual basic 6.0) the dispose works fine. The control is created by calling new AxHost(CLSID_OF_THE_CONTROL) Is the .net control missing any necessary interface implementation to work with axhost That would explain it. Make a wrapper: Project + Add Reference, COM tab, select your component. That will automatically create two wrappers for the component, one of which is an AxH ...Show All

• Visual Basic How. to handle multiple pages of graphics in VS2005.

  Hi, I'm working on a graphics program which permits the user to select a drawing from a table, add required dimensions and other information, save the data in Sql tables, then produce a PDF file, and/or print out the page. Usually only one page is required with each page having a max of 6 drawings, however, on occasions there may be more than six, so a number of pages would be needed. So far I have reached the point where I am satisfied with the result, if drawings are <= 6, however, I am completely at a loss as to how to handle multiple pages. At present I am using the Paint Event to allow the user to see the result prior to saving or printing. However the print out takes about 15 seconds. Using Print Page Event, I believe ...Show All
