• Visual C++ "Users" app gets error: WSAEACCES "Administrators" do not

  I am attempting to port an application from windows NT to XP Pro.. When the app is ran as an administrator every thing works fine, However when I run as a User I get the error WSAEACCES on the call to sentto(..). Everything I find says the same thing, that I need to call setsockopt (SO_BROADCAST) first, well that does not change anything. I think there is some permission in windows I need to add to the Users group however I can't seem to find it. If any one has any ideas or knows a way around it in the code, I would greatly aprecate some advice. Thanks in advance Nick Hello Re: "Users" app gets error: WSAEACCES "Administrators" do not The right plac ...Show All

• Windows Forms Turn 1 ID column into two columns from another table.

  Here is my example. One table would hold transactions with a product ID. The ID comes from a product table where there are make and model columns. Ex. Transactions Table - Date, number, ..., product ID Product Table - ID, Make, Model Can I set up automatic databinding with this senario. I could easily set up the ID column on the datagridview to show make instead of ID, but then I would have repeats of all the makes depending on what is in the database and I wouldn't be able to select the model. Can I have two columns whos items in a combobox change based on the first column and databind that to an ID The first column would hold distinct makes and the second column would hold models within that make. Then the result would be ...Show All

• Windows Forms C# GUI Threading

  I'm really new to C# and am looking for some help regarding a threaded app. Basically, one thread handles messages as they arrive. Instead of trying to Invoke a delegate to update the main thread (the one with the GUI), I am trying to find a way to simply write the message to a buffer, and then force the GUI to check the buffer, updating as necessary. How can I go about forcing the main thread to do this I don't have any control over the messaging thread; it's loaded from a library for which I don't have the source. I can control what it does with a message, and that's about it. There are a couple of options available to you. The first option is to use a timer in the main UI. When messages co ...Show All

• Windows Forms How can extract an object from form.designer by string name? (for examble a buttton dropped on)

  i would estract an object from my form, for example a button by name. I drop a button in a form, named button1: and try: Dim o As Object = CallByName( Me , "Button1" , CallType.Get) but don't work because he said that error message: "Public member 'Button1' on type 'Form1' not found" someone have any solution thank's CommonGenius.com wrote: CallByName only works for public members. By default, controls that are added to a form using the VB form designer are added with Friend visibility. Also, I believe the CallByName method only works for properties and methods.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Determine which controller pressed first

  I've looked at the SpaceWars and various other samples but I can't seem to figure out how to accurately tell which controlled did something first. For instance, lets say I have four controllers and the first one to press the A button wins. Since everything happens in a loop, there's no accurate way to tell who exactly pressed the button first. I'd have to check each Players GamePadState one at a time and I can't derive from the GamePad class so that's out. Anyone out there have a solution or a similar problem Maybe I'm thinking too much like a event driven windows programmer to see the solution. Nah, that's no fun man.
