• Visual Studio Express Editions The name 'txtPlayerMove' does not exist in the current context

  Hi, I'm very new to C# and I'm trying to insert a text string into a text box that sits on a form in the same project. The class that is trying to send the string to the text box is in a different file than the form code. I get this error: "The name 'txtPlayerMove' does not exist in the current context" from this code: public bool throwSnow(int range) { //calculates likeliness of a hit at a given range //returns true if snowball hit bool hit = false; int myRoll; Random roller = new Random(); if (snowballs <= 0) { txtPlayerMove.Text = Convert.ToString(name + " is out of snowballs!"); } ...

• SQL Server Can I Debug Remote SQL Server 2000 Stored Procedure in Visual Studio 2005

  I can debug an SQL Server 2005 stored procedure in Visual Studio 2005 from a local database (e.g. AdventureWorks). However, when I try to debug a stored procedure on a remote server running SQL Server 2000 the debug process is not accessible (i.e. I can choose 'Step Into Stored Procedure' and it seems to run but I cannot debug it). Am I trying to do something that just can't be done Is this a compatibility issue between Visual Studio 2005 and SQL Server 2000 Or am I missing something Thanks for any advice on this. Richard As far as I can see, Server Explorer in Visual Studio does not give me a 'Modify' option. It gives me a 'Step into Stored Procedure' option that does not seem work fo ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista How to cancel a sequential workflow with cleanup in advance

  Hello, I want to cancel a sequential workflow, but doing some cleanup in advance. The terminateActivity just aborts the workflow and I 'll have to do some cleaning just before getting to the terminateactivity all the time(because it does not go into faulthandler or cancellation handler). But the cleanup procedure is always the same. Furthermore I have to do this very often in serveral branches in the workflow erverytime I want to abort the workflow, so this is no solution. If I raise an exception somewhere in the workflow I 'll get to the FaultHandler. The activities in there are then being executed and then the workflow continues. But it has to be aborted! So I could throw some exception again inside the faulthandler...ugly! But I nee ...Show All

• .NET Development Dynamic Webservice reference

  Hi there, I have a visual studio solution that has 2 projects 1) is an ASP.NET Web application (the frontend) 2) a C# class library. let's say MYDLL.DLL When I compile the MYDLL.DLL its in copied to the BIN directory of the ASP.NET project. And when I deploy I'm simply copying the folder of teh ASP.NET project to the remote server. That's to set the scene The Class library has a web reference to a Web service. When I'm developing I set this to a particular url. When I deploy MYDLL.DLL, I want the web reference to be read from a config file.

• Software Development for Windows Vista Using the new EVR in DirectShow mode to replace VMR9

  Starting using my player application under Vista, I managed to add the EVR support (DirectShow mode). So I followed the msdn instructions (settings the clipping window, handling WM_PAINT & WM_SIZE), but here are a lot of differences compared to VMR9 that cause me troubles: 1° The events throwed by EVR are very minimalists! For example, I miss the VMRRenderDeviceSet (or equivalent) that provides a way to get the real AspectRatio of the video.    As shown bellow, the VMR9 can send it 2x or 3x, and the last one is the right one. So after each DeviceSet event, it is easy to query the filter for the VideoSize.    (Bellow are shown the received graph notifications sent by the VideoRenderer after starting the Graph) ...Show All
