• Software Development for Windows Vista Missing data after passing an object into a workflow instance

  Hi, I have encountered a very strange problem. I am developing a workflow with web service activities, I am passing an object from my client through my workflow exposed web service and saving the object into the database. When I debug and look at the state of the object within the workflow it is missing data. I have checked the state of the object from within the web service (by overriding the workflow web services methed in a derived class) and the state is complete at that point. So it is just the trip into the workflow instance that is causing the problem. I understand that passing objects into a workflow instance uses a queue and that the object is serialized / deserialized using binary serialization during this process. With thi ...Show All

• Internet Explorer Development reproducible Access Violation closing x86 version of IE7 on XP Pro x64

  There is a reproducible 0xC0000005 Access Violation in IE7. Simply launch the x86 (32-bit) version of IE7 on Windows XP Pro x64 Edition, then close it by clicking the X in the upper right corner to induce the crash. This problem doesn't occur with the x64 version of IE7, or the x86 (32-bit) version of IE7 when run on x86 (32-bit) versions of Windows XP.

• Visual Studio All Breakpoints are being marked as question mark '?'

  I wrote an addin which compiles and had worked fine. When trying to debug my ms-word addin (in unmanaged Cpp), breakpoints are being marked as question mark ( i.e. ' ') and the ms-word app loads without hitting the break points and without loading the addin. I verified that Project/Properties/C++/General/"Debug Information Format" --> is set to "Program Database for Edit & Continue (/ZI)". As it seems to me the dll is not being loaded by the hosting application (ms-word). Thus, it may be the reason for not hitting the breakpoints. Does any one have any idea Best regards.

• Visual Basic Interop Forms Toolkit 1.0 | Wrapper

  Hello Everybody here, Interop Forms Toolkit 1.0 seems to be very nice. Unfortunately the VB Express Edition has no Addin in the Tools menu for generating InteropForm Wrapper Classes. To do it manual seems not to be so easy... Any other possibilities With greetings from Germany Josef Hi Josef, I'm surprised that VB6 is shutting down on you...if you see an error message please let us know. The fact that you're seeing mscoree.dll is expected behavior: this is the file the .NET Framework uses to load the CLR into memory when called by COM. Basically it's the file that handles creating your .NET object for VB6. Hope that helps, Jonathan ...Show All

• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums precisely position embedded charts in worksheet

  I am embedding 4 charts into a worksheet and would like to position them into a nice 4 quadrant view. However, when recording a macro, the position of the chart at the end of Chart.Add, etc routine is arbitrary. Similarly, when I record manually repositioning the chart and then replay the macro, the results differ. Here is the code for creating 2 of the 4 charts. The recorder uses the ActiveSheet.Shaped("chart 1").IncrementLeft nnnn and .IncrementTop nnn statements to perform the repositioning. Any suggestions for predicatably positioning embedded charts within a sheet KC Charts.Add ActiveChart.ChartType = xlLineMarkers ActiveChart.SetSourceData Source:=Sheets("Cancellation - Swap Analysis"). _ Range(&q ...Show All

• SQL Server How to stop PAD_INDEX dein being scripted

  Our team checks SQL scripts into version control. On my machine, however, the generated script always differs slightly. When I generate a create table script, the primary key part always has PAD_INDEX = OFF. Nobody else's server generates this. Does anyone know what option or setting I need to change to prevent PAD_INDEX = OFF from being output WITH ( PAD_INDEX = OFF , IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF ) ON [PRIMARY] Thank you for taking the time to copy and paste. However, I don't see how your post is relevant. I am asking what determines whether the PAD_INDEX option is included in scripted CREATE TABLE statements. ...Show All

• Windows Forms vb.net form...linking listbox and label problem

  I have created a database for a little wrestling game I'm making. In the table, Wrestlers, are the firlds WrestlerName and Morale. I have a listbox which displays the Wrestlers Name into a label at the top in huge font but I can't get the Morale label (lblMorale) to update with the selected item in the listbox. Can anyone help me please Your code looks fine and works well when I tried it with my own database and query. You might just want to preselect an item so the label is set after the form displays.

• SQL Server Insert to a Linked Server possible via Service Broker?
