• .NET Development Where's the WinForm event for AFTER a form has finished loading?

  I need to fire an event AFTER a form has finished loading and is displayed to the user. Currently, I'm initializing my MapPoint control on my form in the form_load event. But, if the connection to the MapPoint server is down, the form never really finishes loading before an exception is thrown and it's very slow. I want to put my MapPoint initialize inside an event that fires AFTER the form has finished loading and is displayed to the user. How can I do this Hello All. _Quimbly_: You could use either Shown (as ahmedilyas said) or Activated, depending on your situation. Shown fires once when the form is first created, and never fires again. Activated fires each time the form is made the active form. Whichever one best fits your ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Bad Lines Appear with Sprite.Draw with Redist. but not with SDK

  Hello Everyone, I am working on an isometric game pseudo 3D but using Direct3D. Primarily I am using one call to draw everything... (Sprite.Draw). Infact I even use only one sprite to draw all the images to the screen and have written all other collision detection and transforms myself using surface level operations... The only real hardware accelerated feature I am taking advantage of is color and alpha blending. Everything has been going fantastic and I am getting ready for a preview release in a few weeks but then I decided to test it on two more machines to make sure everything worked. Almost everything did... but some images are not being drawn to the screen correctly they will have shaded lines under or around them that were no ...Show All

• Visual Studio Remote debugging over internet with SSH tunnel?

  Hi, I'm trying to debug our c++ application at a client's site over the internet using vs2005 and a secure shell (SSH) tunnel set up between two linux boxes in our respective intranets. I've sent msvsmon.exe to the customer and got him to set it up with "no authentication" and "allow any user". I have an SSH tunnel into their intranet, and have set up port forwarding from my local machine on port 4015 to the client windows machine on port 4015. In the "Attach to Process" dialog in VS2005, I have chosen the "Remote" transport, and entered my local endpoint in the form of server:4015 in the "Qualifier" box. When I hit enter, the customer sees that I have connected, but then nothing f ...Show All

• .NET Development XML saved as xls

  Can someone show me the steps, including references and namespaces required , to open an XML file and save it as an Excel spreadsheet WITH AN .XLS extension programatically using VB.net (VS 2003) The XML file I created is very large.

• Visual Basic GetObject & Access Strange Behaviour

  Hi all, We are automating the launch of a Microsoft Access project from within a VB.NET 2.0 app and have found a strange problem. The GetObject method is called and passed the correct path to the project. This in turn opens Access and opens the project. This all works fine except none of the non-dialog forms appear in the Access project. We have checked and all of the forms do open, but they don't all show up. When opening the project manually through Access, everything works fine. This problem also occurs when automating the launch via the Microsoft.Office.Interop.Access.Application reference. Thanks, Stephen. If you can duplicate this "bug" then please use the product feedback center to re ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL Way to Suppress Repeated Values

  This is a problem I usually solve with procedural code, but I am wondering how/if it could be done with SQL queries. A simple one to many query like: Select inv.invnbr, inv.freight, invline.quantity, invline.partnbr, invline.cost from inv inner join invline on inv.id = invline.InvID Returns something like: invnbr freight quantity partnbr cost 100 50 3 abc 50 100 50 6 def 65 100 50 10 ghi 70 Is there way I can rewrite the query, or add a subquery such that the result set would be: invnbr freight quantity partnbr cost 100 50 3 abc 50 100 0 6 def 65 100 0 10 ghi 70 Eg, the freight value, which comes from the one/header table, ...Show All

• SQL Server Ignoring NULL values in LOOKUP transformation.

  Hi, Can you please tell me the way to configure the LOOK UP transformation so that it will ignore all the null values I want to configure a Look up component for the column "Col1" as follows All the NULL values of Col1 should not be considered for look-up process. They should be passed to the downstream component as valid rows. All NOT NULL values of Col1 should be processed by the Look up component. If there is no matching value present for any NOT NULL value of Col1 then it should be directed to error output. Regards, Gopi If you pass the NULL Col1 records to the lookup, you would need an entry in the lookup table to handle the NULL. otherwise, it will fail the l ...Show All
