• Software Development for Windows Vista Object Collection Editor comes up disabled for Dictionary parameter

  I am using a CallExternalMethod activity in my workflow. I have a interface defined one of whose methods takes a Dictionary<string, object> as one of the input parameters. I need this Dictionary<string, object> to be passed as a parameter to CreateWorkflow call which takes a type and input params. The trouble is, in the property grid, the ellipses that appear against this dictionary parameter throws up the Object Collection Editor but with Add and Remove buttons disabled. Only OK and Cancel are enabled. This means that I cannot practically add an entries to this Dictionary parameter using Object Collection Editor. Can you please point me to a solution where by I can use Object Collection Editor to add entries to the dictionary ...Show All

• Windows Forms DataGridView Rows reappearing

  Gday, I'm using VS2005 SP1 Vista Beta. In the designer, I have a datagridview which is bound to a binding source which in turn is bound to a table. I have a set of columns which I have customised for the user interface. Now in the designer there is 4 columns. When I click save, there are 4 columns. HOWEVER, when I build/rebuild the project, then the 4 rows I have defined remain, but every column in the table then appears in the gridview after the 4 I have defined (total of 10). What am I doin wrong On the contrary. I have a Normalised database where when viewing a record for a company, I need to see the staff for ONLY that company. Rather than have text, I store the ID in the table. The most intuitive UI f ...Show All

• .NET Development Why the difference between Access Query Configuration and Tableadapter Query Configuration Wizard

  I have found that I can run a query using Access query builder works fine but the same query does not work in the "TableAdapter Query Configuration Wizard". Why is this Example: SELECT * from Rental_Agreement WHERE DateSerial(year(end_date), month(end_date) , day(end_date) - 5) = Date() This works in Acess 2003 but not in the "TableAdapter Query Configuration Wizard". Are you getting an error If so, what is it The primary difference is that there is functionality that is available when executing a query in Access that is not available when using the Jet database engine. A little more detail might help identify what it is. ...Show All

• Windows Forms two related tables Parent and Child on the same data form, is it possible?

  I am stuck on this from some days now and i hope that someone here can help me in finding an answer to this simple question: why if i drag an instance of two tables (in detail view mode) that i have in a simple dataset i created on my main form (the two tables got a simple relation between them - ParentTblPK to ChildTblFK) i can actually browse delete and update records accordingly but i cannot add a new record to ChildTbl I can only add records to ChildTbl accordingly to its rtelation to ParentTbl if i drag a detail view instance of my ParentTbl on the form and a datagridview of my ChildTbl, that's weird, i do not want to have a datagridview of my ChildTbl, instead i'd like to have a single form handling two tables with labels and corres ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL 2000 : DROP TABLE : Logged fully

  In SQL Server 2000, is DROP TABLE fully logged operation. I have a table with 1 million records. Do I Truncate before dropping to reduce T-log size Would it make significant difference in log size. Hi, drop table will be fully logged. If you do truncate table first you will lower down the transaction volume. But you will have to keep in mind that the TRUNCATE TABLE will only work for table which are not related to other one. You will either have to break the relationship with dropping the PK_FK relation first. HTH, Jens K. Suessmeyer. --- http://www.sqlserver2005.de --- ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista What cool UI stuff should every app take advantage of in Vista?

  What cool stuff should every unmanaged desktop app take advantage of in Vista And still work well downlevel In XP it was themes, new common dialogs, for example. There does not seem to be the push by Microsoft for apps to exploit or take advantage of Vista UI features as there was around the Windows 2000/XP timeframe. People were making sure their apps looked and felt like XP long before it was released. Now with Vista just around the corner, we have huge COM based shell stuff that nobody is even looking at or caring about. Devreadiness doesn't have this type of info. What are the cool things to do in every app and also have a good downlevel fallback Some stuff I've found are: - IFileOpenDialog/IFileSaveDialog - very lar ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL Server Management Studio and Visual SourceSafe

  The develpment team where I work is using Visual Studio 2005, SQL Server 2005 and Team Fundation Server. We want to somehow track changes of the stored procedures. We could create a Solution/Project in the SQL Server Management Studio, add all stored procedures to it and add that Solution/Project to the SourceSafe but nothing will stop developers from directly altering stored procedures. Any ideas on how to prevent developers from making changes to the stored procedures directly Thanks. in SQL Server management studio, 1. right click on any specific stored procedures that you want to set restriction on. 2. Select property 3. Under "Select a page" pane, select "Permissions". And you can setup v ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. GPGPU: 1-to-1 pixel-to-texel mapping using Direct3D

  For a GPGPU application using shaders we need to map a given texture directly 1-to-1 to the render surface. The simplest way to do this (so we think) is to use a rectangular quad with coordinates from (-1, -1) to (1,1)) and to set the FOVY and the zoom such that the quad will exactly fill the whole render surface. Rendering a given texture to this quad should give the expected results, i.e. a direct mapping from each texture pixel to the corresponding screen (or any other render surface) pixel. But what happens is that the texture appears to be shifted one pixel down and right which will make the direct mapping impossible. The correct results are achieved if we use a slight correction for the viewing Matrix: (D3DXMatrixTranslation( &m ...Show All
