• Visual Studio Go to Definition

  I recently had to reinstall VS2005, and now in my right click menu I no longer have the option 'Go to Definition' I've been searching all of the options and customizations, but could not find out how to edit the right-click menu. You can reset the toolbars by unloading all add-ins and then going to Tools, Customize menu, Toolbars tab, select the desired toolbar and click the Reset button. You can also use the Tools, Import and Export Settings menu to reset to a desired environment Finally you can also open a VS 2005 DOS command prompt and type: devenv.exe /setup At least with VS.NET that resets the IDE too. ...Show All

• SQL Server Newb question

  If I am using Ado.Net from a .Net Class library hosted outside SqlServer to do Sends and Receives do I have to use anything else other than queues The reason I am asking is because I already have an abstraction layer for a couple of our queueing systems and I was hoping to put SSB in there as well but the abstraction layers' primitive is the Queue not Conversation/Dialog/Service, etc. Thanks Costas Uncomment the begin dialog lines. Use the @service parameter as the to service in that statement. That will allow you to begin a dialog and send a message in your stored proc. This proc can be called from ADO.Net. ...Show All

• Visual Basic "Language neutral" property in file Version Tab

  How do I set the language property on a DLL I go into the Project Properties -> Assembly Information... button -> Neutral Language dropdown box and set it to English (United States). After I build the project/solution, when I right-click on my DLL and go to the Version Tab, the Language property always says "Language Neutral." Please help, I'm getting frustrated with this. :( I also look forward to find a solution to this problem. I just tried that C# behaves in the same way, language is always neutral. Dropdown list in Assembly information has no effect. Sometimes I've opened my EXE with hex editor and changed language code manually. This is the only solution I know. Hopefully somebody k ...Show All

• Smart Device Development MainMenu

  Hi there, i have a form with a MainMenu, and i'm trying to solve 2 problems: 1) if i show a MessageBox, closing the message box, the menu disappears. Solution: whenever i close the MessageBox, i do a kind of a "reset" to the menu: - this .Menu.Dispose(); - this .Menu = this .mainMenu; Well, it works, but is it a good solution 2) i click on the menu, it opens the menu items, and then when i click one of the items, i have a event handler that makes something. What i need is to close the menu immediatly after i click on a item. Solution: (i've tried doing the same thing i did above, including those lines in the beginning of the event handler, but it doesn't work.) Any ideas Thanks in advanc ...Show All

• Visual C# PlaceHolder Image

  I've created a byte array: byte[] bytePic = (byte[]) chartSpaceName.GetPicture("gif", 600, 300); I'm wondering how to put this on my webpage without having to save it as a .gif file. The byte array is created dynamically so it will always be different so I made a placeholder. I'm not really sure what to do from there on... I know I could do: PlaceHolder.Controls.Add(new LiteralControl(strPath)); but that involves saving the gif file. Any ideas Welcome to the MSDN Forums, this forum is not reserved for ASP.NET related question. We've got forums.asp.net for those question. Unfortunatly I'll give it a try to help you.

• Commerce Server Root Category Ranking Issue

  Hello, I'm having an issue with the .GetRootCategory method call. Here's the situation. Before I call the .GetRootCategory I set a where clause and pass it along. The method doesn't return me any results. But when I don't include the where clause I get expected results. Here's what I did (The where clause is included): 1. The current catalog has ranks for all root categories. So I created a new category with no rank and boom that new category was returned. If I set a rank to that category; it is not returned anymore. I've traced the issue in the ctlg_FillCategoryDescendants sproc: Here's the code. IF @oid = -1 BEGIN if (@fVirtualCatalog <> 0) BEGIN -- Insert the Categorys first-level descendents in the #Desc_Oids ...Show All

  Anyone else seen this problem starting up XACT It worked in the past but I haven't used it for a few weeks. In the interim, I've installed the Vista SDK, .NET Framework 3.0, WF and WCF extensions for Visual Studio etc. I've uninstalled all these components and reinstalled GSE and Visual Studio Express but still get the same exception on start-up.

• Visual Basic VB & Office 2003/2007 References

I'll start by saying I'm new to Visual Studio 2005 and in many ways,VB programming altogether so if I'm way off base here, please let me know.

• .NET Development Problems with SMTP Mail on Port 25

  This is a very strange problem... I have a Windows 2003 Server hosting a C# application, which is scheduled to run on a semi-frequent basis. I want the application to automatically send out emails, containing data collected by the C# application. So I set up the standard IIS SMTP server on the same machine. I use the System.Net.Mail namespace, and the following code to send an email: MailMessage message = new MailMessage(from, to, subject, body); SmptClient client = new SmtpClient("localhost"); client.Send(message); Only it doesn't work. An exception is thrown, with inner exception saying "Unable to connect to the remote server." To simplify matters, I deactivated Windows firewall - and have no other personal firewal ...Show All
