• Visual Studio Team System Source Control Toolbar issues

  I have both "Source Control" and "Source Control - Team Foundation" toolbars enabled, when I open a .cs file under source control (so it's the active document I'm looking at) the "compare" button stays disabled. How can I enable this button or compare the current document to the latest version at a click of a button You are opening it from the source explorer I understand, don't you the most probable cause you can't compare it, is becouse you need to download the file to your workspace, and then use the compare option ...Show All

• Visual Basic Printing Problems

  When i take printouts directly from the forms with the MSFlex Grid in it.... Printer never prints the MS-Flex grid box neatly... The Grid box in the hard copy is totally printed with a dark gray color... and no text will be seen... Even if i change the background coor of the grid box ... it is printed with a dark gray color.... Can any one please help me what to do to get it prinet properly....... Hi Siddarth, You don't say, but since this is the Power Packs forum I assume you are using the PrintForm component. Have you tried using different PrintOption settings (CompatibleModeClientAreaOnly vs ClientAreaOnly) The two settings use different implementations to cature the form, so sometimes one will give better results than the other ...Show All

• SQL Server BI Portal connected to analysis services 2005

  Anyone has connected the bi portal with analisys services 2005 I have a security problem. Thanks I don't think http access will change much. The fact that Excel works, proves that You can authenticate to the AS server using your Windows credentials The OLEDB provider for Analysis Services 9.0 is setup and working correctly The cubes are processed and are available for querying. Just to double check, when you sat that you have "the last owc" I assume you mean that you have OWC 11.0 that comes with Excel 2003. I am also assuming from your earlier posts that you can actually see the OWC control and that the errors are appearing where the data is normally displayed. Do you have access to any oth ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions how to change color of titlebar

  How do i change the color of the title bar in vb express 2005.i want to change it from the xp blue to the vista grey.how do i do it I played around with implementing the WM_NCPAINT message to paint a custom window frame. It used to work back in the good old days, but no longer. The code below is semi-functional but missing a lot of functionality. I kinda gave up when I saw the original XP themed frame show up when I Alt+Tabbed away from the window and restored it. Maybe you can make it work...

• Visual Basic Export VB3.0 data?

  No, that's not a typo, I'm talking VB3.0. I'm working on something for a client of mine. He has a database stored in VB3.0 running on Windows 3.11. I am upgrading him to two XP POS systems and a 2003 server. We are going to be using some other kind of database software, but would like to save the data from the old VB3.0 database. I'm sure the answer is yes, but I have to make sure of it. Microsoft didn't have an answer for me so they referred me here. The question is can Visual Basic 3.0 data be exported, and if so what kind of format can it be exported to CSV, etc I know this software is very old, but any kind of support would be GREATLY appreciated! Thank you, Brian I am not sure ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums VE 3, MS Ajax beta 2 and IE7 weirdness

  I just updating a site to use MS Ajax beta 2, from beta 1. Everything was fine under beta 1, but code that used to work under beta 1, is throwing an error under beta 2. Oddly enough it all works great under IE6, but not 7. I have just spent some considerable time examining the data, and everything looks fine. The problem seems to be with drawing a poly line, i.e. simply commenting out the line which adds the polyline to the map stops the problem happening: map.AddPolyline(poly); The array of lat/long looks fine, there are no nulls or anything odd, and doing ' map.SetMapView' on the array of points is fine too. To make the problem even more maddening, the problem is intermittant, and only on IE7, so for the moment I'm giving up ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Declarative creation of DependencyProperties

  (split from this thread ) I was wondering if it was possible to create simple DependencyProperties declaratively using Xaml I haven't found any way to do so, but it seems logical that there should be, given all the other things that can be done declaratively. I was expecting something like: <UserControl x:Class="WPFTest.Test" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml" DataContext="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource Self}}">     <DependencyProperty Name="Color" Type="{x:Type System.Windows.Media.Color}"/>     <TextBlock Text="{Binding Path=Color}">         <Tex ...Show All

• SQL Server Simple summation

  Dear all, I am attempting to do a simple summation statistics calculation with T-SQL to count rows based on an int column FK relationship to another table. I have two tables: (1) document, and (2) filespec. Both tables have an int primary key column and some miscellaneous columns. Filespec has an int field which is keyed to the primary key of document (FK constraint), thus, each document can have zero-to-many file specifications. Example: Document Table: DocID Name 1 Approved Plan 2 Photo Gallery Filespec Table: FileID DocumentID Name 1 2 First Photo 2 2 Second Photo Expected Result: DocID FileCount 1 0 2 2 How to generate this result Thanks in advance for advice. ...Show All
