• Visual Basic Beginners question

  Hi, when I use the HelloWorld example from the interop forms toolkit, everything is fine except if I try to add a new Public Sub. 1) E.g. I add the following code (while VB6 IDE is closed): in class HelloWorldForm after # Region "Public Methods" : <InteropFormMethod()> _ Public Sub newPosition( ByVal x As Integer , ByVal y As Integer ) Me .Left = x Me .Top = y End Sub 2) I open the vb6 IDE and start the main app. I press the "launch .NET form" button and see a modified .NET form, because I modified the form earlier in the .NET environment. 3) But if I edit the vb6 code re browse the objects in the object browser, I can not see the new Public Sub. What is the reason that ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions interested in programming

  I am interested in learning programming. First, I need to find a dictionary of keywords. Rules for using keywords. How to express ideas in computer language must be learned. Then some hard work learning and using knowledge. Microsoft encourages people to use resources to develope programs I believe. C++ combined with visual studio to make Visual c++ Express 2005 with Windows xp in my computer. VOS, I looked at your link and was initally impressed. Then I looked at your topics, and noticed that they have a login and an "Add to cart". For the life of me it looks as if you are advertising and profitting off this this board which is against the gudelines of this board. ...Show All

• Smart Device Development how do i read a file

  hi how do i read file in vc++ for smartphones You read a file on a smartphone the same way you do it anyway. E.g. /* FREAD.C: This program opens a file named FREAD.OUT and * writes 25 characters to the file. It then tries to open * FREAD.OUT and read in 25 characters. If the attempt succeeds, * the program displays the number of actual items read. */ #include <stdio.h> void main( void ) { FILE *stream; char list[30]; int i, numread, numwritten; /* Open file in text mode: */ if( (stream = fopen( "fread.out", "w+t" )) != NULL ) { for ( i = 0; i < 25; i++ ) list = (char)('z' - i); /* Write 25 characters to stream */ numwritten = fwrite( list, sizeof( char ), 25, stream ); ...Show All

• SQL Server Variables and ForEach container

  Is there a way to set a variable as a substring of the enumerator in a Foreach File Enumerator type The Variable Mappings tab in the Foreach Loop Editor does not allow you to enter an expression. Fred Var1 has the enumerated value. You want Var2 to be a substring of Var1. Select Var2, then hit F4, or select the Properties grid. Set the EvaluateAsExpression property to true. Set the Expression property to do the manipulation, e.g. SUBSTRING(@Var1, 1,1) There is an expression builder behind the elipsis button in the Propery grid, when you have selected the Expression property. If there is no elipsis, then you should upgrade your workstation to SP1 for SQL 2005. I'd also recomend th ...Show All

• SQL Server Need example of a "Hash" function.....

  Many articles on sql server security make reference to Hash functions. Do you know of a simple example of a hash function that I could show to others For example, would taking the first eight bytes of the mathematical "sin" of a number be a good function I don't know. Or is a hash "function" actually an involved algorithm, so the "simple" formula I was looking for really doesn't exist. TIA, Barkingdog In SQL Server 2005 we have a new builtin to calculate hash functions: HashBytes. For more details on this builtin I recommend consulting BOL ( http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms174415.aspx ), but here is a short example: SELECT HashBytes ...Show All

  I’m trying to convert this XAML code to C# code, to be able to add my animations at runtime. What happens is that the C# code is semantically correct, but the “c# animation” does not begin.

  We have just started using TFS and have encountered a problem where the button graphics/text and the cursor graphics are missing from the Difference and Merge tools. I am attaching 3 screenshots - all from VS 2005. The first shows the lack of button graphics on the diff tool. The icons are there and are functional, you can figure out what they are when you hover over them you just can't see the graphics. http://www.koinos.com/content/binary/DiffToolNoIcons.JPG The second is the message window that appears when there are no differences.
