• Windows Live Developer Forums Problem resizing Map

  Hi, I have created a web app using the Google maps API and am looking porting this to virtual earth, but I seem to be falling over at the first hurdle. It is to do with the resizing of the map. I have a page layout as follows :- <form id="form1" runat="server"> <div id="header"> Header !! </div> <div id="footer"> <label id="lbStatus"></label> </div> <div id="left" style="left: 0px; top: 0px"> <asp:Label ID="Label2" runat="server" Text="Search Address/Postcode"></asp:Label> <br /> <asp:TextBox ID="txtSearchAddress" runat="server" W ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Single Solution - Multiple Project configuration help

  I've done some looking around, here and through google, and I still can't seem to fix my problem. I wanted to make a single solution, which contained two project...each project was identical except one was targeted towards windows while the other was targeted to the 360. I can't get this to work, as sometimes my project will build and debug on windows, and sometimes it will build and deploy to the 360. Most of the time though, it just builds and gives me a 360 connection time-out message or just does nothing at all. I've been looking at the solution properties, and it seems feasible to set up GSE to have one solution, with two projects each targeted to different platforms, with the user able to pick which platform to build and debug before ...Show All

• SQL Server Performance comparison between Enterprise and Standard edition

  Dear all, I am considering for a new installation of Enterprise edition because of its OLAP semi-additive feature. Are there any other feature that is worth for Enterprise edition I am using it as a small size datawarehouse (<200 GB). Then, no need for scalability and availability. Are there any performance paper about ETL, OLAP creation, OLAP browsing,  reporting between enterprise and standard edition Both of them should use the same machine sizing , i.e. 2 CPU.

• Visual C# Wierd error : Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt

  Ok I have a project that runs fine from the IDE, the problem is if I install the app or run it from the bin\release folder then I get this error on one of my method calls. I have tried this on a test machine and on my development machine and the results are the same. I have spent hours trying to figure this one out....... The crazy thing is, the method shows up in the stack trace but there is not code at all executed in that method.   Mike Martin wrote: Ok I have a project that runs fine from the IDE, the problem is if I install the app or run it from the bin\release folder then I get this error on one of my method calls.

• SQL Server Weird results when printing a diagram in SQL Server 2005

  Hi all, I have a diagram that I'm trying to print. I'm getting a weird result on paper. I have 3 tables on the same paper. I use the standard view mode in order to see "column name", "condensed type" and "nullable" columns. When the print comes out, the first 5 rows of the "column name" column are masked by some sort of drawing. It's as if there was another table on top of the one I'm printing, like you can see the bottom right corner of it just hiding the 5 rows of the "column name" column. What is even more weird is that have the exact same problem on the 3 tables I'm printing. This "drawing" appears to be of fixed size because as I increase the width of the first c ...Show All

• SQL Server Rowversion as a history mechanism

  Hello, I have a requirement to maintain a 'history' table beside a products table. Any time a row is changed (added/removed/updated) in product table I need to add a new record to the history table. I would be using a rowversion column in the products table. And would want that rowversion to be preserved in the data on the history table ... So I'm thinking I'd use a trigger etc..thats no a problem, I can manage that... What I'm wondering about is what datatype the column to hold the rowversion in the history table should be I'm thinkin that it shouldn't be a rowversion because I don't want it to change value in any automatic way... or even get mod'ed by the action of actually inserting the record into the history table.... So, may ...Show All

• Windows Forms Setting the icon for a form

  I created an icon, then clicked on the form, then went to the form's properties and set the Icon property to point to the icon file. What I want is the icon to show up in the title bar of the form, and show up on the taskbar when the form is minimized. But, this isn't working. I'm puzzled because I thought that was what the Icon property was for. Oh, the form's ShowIcon property is set to true. I'm using Visual Studio 2005 and working in C#. Thanks for the help.  I'm going to document this for other people The icon has to be 16x16 in order for it to appear on the title bar of the app and then show up in the taskbar when the app is minimized.  If you then set the form's Icon property to ...Show All

• Visual Basic Passing variables between forms

  Hi, I'm having problems passing variables from form to form. My situation is that I launch an MDI form and within this the user can launch any number of child forms with names which can be derived by the user (I have no idea what these might be). These child forms can then launch modally a generic form which acts dependent on variables passed from the child form. I understand that within the child form I can set a shared/public variable but can't see how I can access this without knowing the form name. Any suggestion would be much appreciated. Cheers John You might want to try to use events to link your forms together. Make each parent form listen for events in each child form. As for kno ...Show All

• Community Chat IIS logging

  Hi all, I wasn't sure where to post this, so my apolagise I am trying to work out the what our customers are searching for on our website, using our search engine. The search code has been developed by another deveoper and it uses POST to submit the search query. I have looked at the IIS logs and used analog 6.0 to transalte the logs, but it show everything other than the search words. I'm thinking it might be to do with using POST rather than get.

I just have the .exe Can u help me Unless your really into working in IL which is a low level language more like assembler than VB - I think you may be in for a bit of a shock that modifying an EXE is not an easy task without the source. In future, keep a backup and another backup. Its so much easier to make modifications to the source and recompile. If its a simple application you may find its just quicker to rewrite it - if its a big application then that may not be possible. ...Show All
