• Visual C++ Error LNK2019 Unresolved External Symbol wWinMainCRTStartup

  I saw the previous posting relating to LNK2019, but the solutions did not work for me. I am migrating a eVC project to VS 2005. I have two LNK2019 errors.

• Windows Live Developer Forums Custom Pushpin Transparency Issue

  Hi, This may seem like a studpid question but does anyone know how to make certain parts of a pushpin image transparent. eg. If I draw a red circle pushpin on a white square how do I show just the red circle and make the remainder of the white square transparent Cheers, Scott. You don't have to use javascript to get png's to work.  You can use css: Pass in MyPushPin class as the image style when declaring a pushpin and pass in a 1x1 pixel transparent gif (so the default doesn't show up): new VELatLong(latitude, longitude),    "/VirtualEarth/images/blank.gif" ,    title ,    description ,    "MyPushPin" ,    null ,    null ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Set folder security permissions during installation

  This note from the Microsoft site mentioned below, suggests that application specific data should be placed in the location provided by the KnownFolder API (passing parameter :CSIDL_COMMON_APPDATA). CSIDL_COMMON_APPDATA This folder should be used for application data that is not user specific. For example, an application may store a spell check dictionary, a database of clip-art or a log file in the CSIDL_COMMON_APPDATA folder. This information will not roam and is available to anyone using the computer. By default, this location is read-only for normal (non-admin, non-power) Users. If an application requires normal Users to have write access to an application specific subdirectory of CSIDL_COMMON_APPDATA, then the application must explic ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Running client and host from different machines

  Hi, I've been struggling for past few days with trying to get my client (windows form application) and host to communicate with each other. Everything works great when the client and host exist in the same machine but once I move the host to a different server, it looks like the client never receives any reply from the host. I tried looking at the Event Viewer but the errors do not make any sense. Here is my client's app.config <system.serviceModel> <bindings> <wsDualHttpBinding> <binding name="WSDualHttpBinding_IPersistentSubscriptionService" closeTimeout="00:01:00" openTimeout="00:01:00" receiveTimeout="00:10:00" sendTimeout="00:01:00" bypass ...Show All

• SQL Server error log

  I am trying to send an email in case of SSIS package execution failure. i used the OnError event to send email but it send 10-15 emails in case of one error. Then I used OnTaskFailed event to send email, it does send one email. But the system varibale ErrorCode and errorDescription are unavailable for OnTaskFailed. Can you please suggest how to send errordescription using OnTaskFailed. You shouldn't double-post questions. It makes tracking the answers more difficult.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Creating popup panels like Blend

  What would be the best way to go about creating 'popup panels' like Blend does when you click on one of the tools on the left side In Blends case it looks like it's a Menu but I'd like to be able to have any Control magically appear, allow the user to interact with it, and then disappear. For example, I have a color rectangle in my app. If the user clicks on it, i'd like a color selector control to magically appear. The user can then interact with the control and then click anywhere outside of the control to close it. Is something like this built into WPF I've tried just manually creating a control but I'm having trouble with getting the popup to automatically close when the user clicks anywere else.

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Assembly Link Location Property

  I've created a VSTO Excel project and upon deployment get the "The assembly could not be found.." message. Both the Excel workbook and the assembly are deployed to a folder on the user's PC and authority has been granted to the assembly using caspol. I've looked at the two properties (_assemblyname0, _assemblylocation0) in the workbook. They are * and {06a83bbf-d91e-4ba6-a395-0c5b0ef0c77d} respectively. I thought I could solve the problem by explicitly setting these properties but cannot because I cannot locate the Assembly Link Location property.

• Visual C# Save my program for God's sake!!!!

  Just as I was getting some decent work done on my project, I set down my keyboard to make a bathroom run, and once i returned, I found my cat lying on my keyboard... When I tried to clean up the constaint garbage that was created by him, I tried running my program and found a ton of new errors. What makes it worse is that I have this bugged sucker saved...

• Visual Basic Drag and Drop Problem

  All, A simple problem I hope. I have a list and drag items from the list to another control starting the the drag and drop operation on the mousedown event of the list. However when the mousedown event fires the drag and drop operation begins but the list doesn't update until after the drag and drop has completed. Basically, I want to click on an item in the list, the list to update something with the selected item, some code to run to determine whether the item clicked is allowed to start a drag drop operation, and if so to begin a drag drop operation (all in the mousedown event) pheewwwww!! I ve currently got around this by using the hover selection option on the listview but I d rather click on an item to select it rather than hover ov ...Show All
