• Visual C++ Need help converting strings

  I'm using C++/CLI. Can anyone help me out with some code to convert the String "2006/07/13 12:00:00 PM" in to the String "20060713T1120000Z" To parse the input, I would read into regular expression pattern matching.

• Visual Studio Tools for Office VSTO 2005 SE Word 2003 addin won't load

  I have been reading through everybody else's questions about why their addin won't load and I've tried everything I've come across but my Word 2003 addin will not load on anyone's computer but mine. These are the things I have done so far: I used the VSTO project template for Word 2003 to create the addin project. I added the SetSecurity project. I included output from both SetSecurity and my addin project to the setup. I installed the interop assemblies for Office 2003 on the target machine. (.Net Framework 2.0 was already installed.) I installed the VSTO SE runtime. In stalled my addin. No addin appears when Word is run. I did some more digging and discovered that the LoadBehavior value in the registry had to b ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Access to build results over http

  Is there any way to configure the build result reports such that they don't contain links in the UNC format Right now, if you want to either access the build or look of any of the logs, you get a UNC path. It is fine that the build server transfers files via SMB, so I don't mind that the DropLocation needs an UNC path. But I would like to configure a http address for the reports that clients see. That way I could point an IIS on the file server that holds the builds to the drop directory and enable access via http. If this is not supported in V1, will it be part of the extranet support coming for SP1 This seems quite key... Best, David You could use something like WebDAV to do it. http://ww ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Schema compare adds existing role memberships

  Hi, We've got a recurring problem with Schema Compare. I can do a schema compare which picks up a new role membership, click 'Write Updates' and then click Refresh and it offers up the same new role membership. As such my RoleMemberships.sql file now looks like this: 1 2 EXEC sp_addrolemember N 'db_owner' , N 'ct\sysminerva-deploy' 3 GO 4 EXEC sp_addrolemember N 'db_etl' , N 'ct\sysminerva-etl' 5 GO 6 EXEC sp_addrolemember N 'db_svc' , N 'CT\svc-ifdsql-ppdm' 7 GO 8 9 10 EXEC sp_addrolemember N 'db_owner' , N 'db_etl' 11 12 GO 13 14 EXEC sp_addrolemember N 'db_owner' , N 'db_etl' 15 16 GO 17 18 EXEC sp_addrolemember N 'db_owner' , N ...Show All

• Visual Basic can't edit stored procedure from vs.net 2003

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Cannot compile my first DirectSound app. Help!

  Hello everyone, I'm new here. I'm trying to write my first DirectSound app and am having a bit of difficulty...I'm hoping the gurus around here can help (I've been trying for days to get this to work and I think it's just something stupid I'm doing). I'm using VS2005 (C++) and have installed the DirectX SDK June 2006. Here's what I've done so far: 1) Selected "Project -> MyProject properties -> C/C++ -> General" and added "C:\Program files\Microsoft DirectX SDK (June 2006)\Include" to "Additional Include Directories" field. 2) Selected "Project -> MyProject properties -> Linker -> General" and added "C:\Program files\Microsoft DirectX SDK (June 2006)\Lib\x86" to "Addi ...Show All

• Windows Forms Usercontrol inheritance stopped working in designer (VS 2005)

  Hi all.. I am creating an application that uses UserControl inheritance. I declared the base UserControl as abstract and derived from it 5 forms exist. When I used the designer, I could see visually all of the inherited controls. Until now. I don't know what happened but when I try to see any inherited control in the designer, the following error is shown : The designer must create an instance of type 'Gama.Tablas.Maestras' but it cannot because the type is declared as abstract. I haven't done any code change to the inherited forms. I tried by exiting VS and running it again, and the same happens. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I think it is unuseful to post the code, because it is the same code VS creates when a new ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Setting up the database for SqlWorkflowPersistenceService

  Hello, I used the Hands-on Labs Beta 2 for an introduction to the WWF. There were added special SQL scripts to create the database for the persistence service. Though I have read in a paper by Dino Esposito that there are some dialog-based utilities for download to easily create the target database. My question is : Where can I find these utilities Thank you very much in advance! Iris Stern Hi Tom, I am developing a workflow application using ASP.NET. It would be of great help, if you can provide some sql db creation scripts with the required tables. Even, if it is a database diagram..too its ok.

• Architecture Windows Installer -> How to make patch or upgrade

  Hi to all, I'm reading "The Definitive Guide to Windows Installer" to make upgrade or patch to my app. But all the procedure explained in the book is too much expensive for a programmer, and manual edit ORCA db is not a friendly procedure.

• .NET Development metaclass/class references

  Hi, I'm in the process of learning c#, but i'm getting the hang of it pretty fast. The problem is documentation. I've read up on C# reflection, and i'm already using it, but there are certain things which aren't stated. For instance, my issue is that of class references. How do you do such in C#. Like for instance, delphi: <code> {* class reference declaration *} TDBObjectClass = class of TDBObject; {* Method returns the remotable object for a given class type...the method here is a class funciton *} TDBObject.GetRemotableClass(aClass: TDBObjectClass):TRemotable; begin ..... end; </code> What is most IMPORTANT about my question is the fact that I am not concerned with the Dynamic creation of the class us ...Show All
