• Visual C# Raising an event in C# that impliments a VB interface?

  Hi. I have an public interface class in VB that I'm trying to use in C# (I'm converting my ways to C# - like it!!). I'm getting the following error when trying to code for the event handler: C:\<path>\newDevice.cs(7,18): error CS0536: 'deviceInCsImplimentsEquipIL.newDevice' does not implement interface member 'EquipmentIL.EquipIC.Methods.ConnectionEstablished'. 'deviceInCsImplimentsEquipIL.newDevice.ConnectionEstablished' is either static, not public, or has the wrong return type.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Howto: make the Enter key work like the Tab key

  What's the best WPF way to have a custom/user control move to the next control in the tab sequence. I'm writing a control that shows a popup list and when the user selects an item and presses the Enter key, the keyboard focus should move to the next control in the tab sequence. Thanks, MikeS I guess you could add something like this to your main window: (Constructor) ...   this .PreviewKeyDown += new KeyEventHandler (MainPage_PreviewKeyDown); ... (/Constructor) void MainPage_PreviewKeyDown( object sender, KeyEventArgs e) {   if (e.Key == Key .Enter)   {     if ( Keyboard .FocusedElement is FrameworkElement )     {     ...Show All

• Windows Forms Adding ampersand to create hotkeys

  Hello all, I'm working on a form that contains several languages and therefore using unicode. The problem is that when I use ampersands on buttons in order to create hotkeys, the ampersand appears on the button text. Is there anyway to get around this Also, I wanted to know if there's a way just as simple to create hotkeys without having to use the button text This example here is the closest one I came up with, but it still looks rather complicated. I'm afraid Languages.Strings.LOGIN is not set to &Login, and when I do set it that way and leave out the "&" before, the ampersand still appears... Are you sure it doesn't have anything to do with the fact that my code is written in unicode Anyway, I've simply created ...Show All

Using the reporting services web service I have been able to assign permissions to objects in reporting services no problem. The issue is that each user needs to be added to the System User role to be able to use the report builder properly. I can't seem to find a way to do this programmatically. Any idea ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Size of .FBX models when exported in XNA.

  Hi, I was simply trying to create a cylinder in 3dsmax (v. 8) and import the mesh in a XNA project. I create a cylinder with a height of 70.0 (pointing up and with the base at axis origin). Then in XNA I want to create a sphere and put it at the top of the cylinder, but when I use 70.0 for y-coord, then it is below half the height of the cylinder. I've noticed that I have to put it at 175.0 (70 * 2.5) to have it at the top of the cylinder. However, I cannot see any scaling or so in my code. Any idea on what is wrong Thank you very much in advance! dvarrin 3dsmax saves scaling information in the .FBX file, which XNA will use by default. The simplest fix is to set scaling back to 1.0 when you create you world matrix for re ...Show All

• Visual Studio Retrieving "active" data connections

  Greetings everyone (or anyone), I am writing a little add-in and I am trying to figure out how to do something that I think should be simple: I want to retrieve the connections that are listed in the "Data Connections" in the Server Explorer. I can obviously access the UIHierarchy but what I really want is actually the connection(s) itself or the representation for the connection(s). Say the user has already defined a couple of data connections, I would like to get them and have access to the properties of the connection such as the connection string, and then access the field properties (isIdentity, etc). Essentially imagine that I am writing a custom properties form that shows the same information that the "Dat ...Show All

• Visual Basic Making a process modal

  Hi, hopefully a rather straight forward case: I have two programs that I wish to integrate such that the first one opens the second modally. How would I go about this I'm thinking there must be something you can do with handles, but I have no idea how to go about it and haven't been able to find any information to aid me. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks. Hoopla You can only make windows modal compared to other windows. If I remember correctly you cannot do this over process boundaries.
