• Visual Basic How to clear browser history

  Hello I am trying to figure out a way to clear browser history from my dektop application, ideally for both FF and IE. Anone know of a resource or some code to help me out Thanks! It's actually in C# and won't be of any use to you, it was just a question like yours on how to delete the history and was pretty much concluded that nothing much can be done about it http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=799879&SiteID=1 pretty much severe Windows hacking on trying to do what you want would be done which is of course not recommended especially when distributing your application to clients ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Converting from VS6.0?

  Hello, I have an application that was made in Visual Studio 6.0. I have recently downloaded VS2005Express C++ Edition, and I am trying to compile the application in the newer version. However, I have two problems. 1) The old application uses the MFC library. Now, I have it set up to use the files in the MFC includes directory on my computer. However, apparently, the standards for the newer compiler are more strict, and it picks up errors in the MFC library. Is there A) a new version to use with VS2005Express, or B) are there replacement functions for the MFC library that I should be using instead 2) None of the forms show up. The source code is all there, but the Windows forms that they used are somewhere that I can't find. How do I get ...Show All

• SQL Server Set maxtransfersize for a DB Maintenance Job Log Dump

  My SQL 2000 installation has been running along very well for many months now with SP4 installed, but I've begun to have the "insufficient system memory to run this query" error outlined in KB904804 ( http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/904804 ). I can add the maxtransfersize parameter and get it to work in QA, but I have all of my log dumps configured under Database Maintenance Plans. Is there any way I can force the maxtransfersize to be applied within a database maintenance plan If the script will do the job I would choose that than to MP, anyway the other KB refers on that link http://support.microsoft.com/kb/873482/ talks about it, might check/test and apply. ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Vista IIS7 WCF - Has anyone got it working?

  I can't get the simplest WFC app created by the VS2005 to work on the local machine! Two - I have read and tried just about everything mentioned in any post about WFC and IIS. This is NOT supposed to be this difficult I am sure. My installation: Vista Beta 2 (build 5384), IIS 7 enabled, VS2005 with extensions (WF RC2, Orcas), Vista Windows SDK 5383.1.1 I ran the serviceModelReg.exe -i (no errors). I have copied other web services from IIS 6 to the IIS 7 and they work nominally. I can create, compile and execute aspx sites on the machine. A step by step setup procedure would be helpfull. I hope someone at Microsoft actually has a configuration working... If not please say so. Been beating my head against the now bloody rock for ...Show All

• SQL Server BCN service questions

  Hi some questions about BCN service : - WE have several remote clients and we don’t know their addresses. - We create a BCN Service for dynamic routes configuration. - Each time we send a message to a specific user message is sent to BCN asking for a route - Messages for a specific user can have specific conversation group id ( Question : if we send several message to the client with no route does it mean that there will be several messages to BCN . My guess that “missing route” message is sent to BCN for every new conversation but not for several messages inside one conversation. ) - BCN service doesn’t answer immediately because it doesn’t know the address ...Show All

• .NET Development GridView

  I created an editable gridview  but I have a problem which is I want a certain coloumn to be  uneditable meaining I want the user to update in all the coloumns except this certain coloumn what should I do  also I want the Grid to change back to uneditable mode after the user updates what he needs. Thanks in advance, Sara, Sara, I think your question should be in forums.asp.net ... anyways.... You can acheive what you need using a template column in the GridView and changing the "edit" template so it has a simple label binded to the property you need to show. By default you should have a textbox in the "edit" template... but you can easily change it to a label or any other read-only control ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Setting foreground and background to be the same when a control is disabled

  Can someone suggest XAML code that would set the foreground and background of a control (say a TextBox) to be the same when it is disabled as it was when it was enabled. I mean if the Background was white and Foreground was Black when the TextBox was enabled, if the TextBox is disabled, the Background and Foreground should remain the same and not be grayed out. I would like to add something here, I think this can be accomplished by Data Binding. But the Foreground and the Bacjground property just give the current status of themselves. When the control is disabled is there a way to find out what the Foreground would be when it would be enabled without actually enabling the control Hope this makes sense ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Pay to play a friends game?

  Ok srry if this has been asked or adressed already, I did not see it, so if I DL the launcher on the 360, and a friend of mine has the membership and all that other stuff and makes a game, I have to have a membership as well just to play Because I find it kinda dumb if I have to pay $100 to play a friends game, (If I were not to be making games and such and just wanted to play others games). It seems a bit much for me if i wanted to do that. BTW I plan on getting it and trying to make a game anyway I just want to know if this is the case. Srry if this is posted in the wrong area. Currently, yes, you need a membership in the Creator's Club to play XNA games. This is not the permanent implementation however ...Show All
