• Visual Studio Express Editions Writing text from textbox out to a file

  FYI: I'm new to VB. I made a VB program to run a bat file that is created when you select a file. 1. I have a textbox1 that displays the address of the file and writes out the full address and file name to a bat file. 2. A button labeled browse to find the file to display in the textbox1. 3. A button that runs the bat file that is created by the textbox1. My problem is that I want to append static text before the full address of the file and after too. So the bat file would look like this: "static text that never changes" "dynamic text that changes with info from textbox1" "static text that never changes" I'm using " My.Computer.Filesystem.WriteAllText" to write the contents of t ...Show All

• Windows Forms Publisher certificate not recognised when installed

  When we attempt to deploy our application to client machines using ClickOnce, we are prompted with the dialog asking if the application should be trusted even though the public portion of the digital certificate used to sign the manifests is installed in the Trusted Publishers store (with fully trust chain - CA is Thawte). Most importantly once our certificate is installed in the Trusted Publishers store, the dialog says the publisher is unknown. Without the certificate installed it states the correct publisher name. Why is this happening How can it be corrected ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Data Compare against a blank db or project

  Why is it that I can do a schema comparison against my project but I can't do a data comparison against the same project (The option isn't even available in the data comparison wizard.) I could easily be missing something since I'm quite new to this. Thanks for any info or help on this. Sincerely, Steve Mayhugh GweiloMacau - We don't store any data inside the database project, so any comparison would always result in a big set of insert statements. Let me back up a moment and try to better understand the problem you're trying to solve here. How would you use the ability to compare your database to a project thanks, ...Show All

• Windows Forms A real challenge!

  I have a real challenge. My software is basic a front-end for a database that I created in SQL 2005. That’s the challenge: I don’t want to use the "BindingNavigator", instead of this I want to put the code myself to go to next record, first, etc, in the new icons that I created. But this is not all. Here is the biggest difficult. I have "TabControls" too. So when I click, for examle, next record, the application need to show me the next record, not only in the form, but in the TabControl in the same form and at the same time Did I explained clearly Thanks for those how at least will read this.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) PerCall storage

  Hi, Can anyone tell me if there is someway of creating a per call storage area. What i have is and object that is passed using a message header on the operation call. On the service side the object decodes the message header to rehydrate it's and then become available for service code. What i want is for service code to be able to call MyClass.Current, what i had at first was upon access of the static property it checks to see if a static variable is null, if it is it then decodes from the message header and stores the decoded object in the static variable. The problem with this is that the static variable is shared across all services & operations. So if another client changes a property of the object that is passed across the m ...Show All

• Visual C# Multiple types in an array

  Hello! I'd like to put two different classes' instances into an array. (Both are child classes, derived from a base class.) The problem is, you have to specify a type for the array itself, but I don't know what to do if I have to store more then one type in it. Will it work if I use the base class as array type, and if yes, please give me an example. Probably it won't since the base class doesn't contain the child classes' fields and methods. I also would like to know if it's possible to store even more types, like "string", "int", "instance of a class" all in one array. I tried to understand structures, but I couldn't get closer to the solution. Anyway, I'm in college and we didn't learn anything about structures yet, so please don't p ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista How to succeed in getting Vista Startup?

  Hello everyone, I have a big problem that my program will be blocked of Windows Vista's Windows Defender.
