• Audio and Video Development Unsetting an 'actioned' button

  Below is my js and markup. This is a basic button test with three states: normal, focused and selected/actioned. The test works, but I want a slightly different behavior. Right now when a button is pressed/selected, it stays actioned (in appearance) until I focus on another button. What I'd like is for the button to revert back to focused. I've tried setting it to that state in the js, immediately after I jump in the title, but what happens then is I never see the action state. I'd like the button to stay actioned for like a second. To give it that pushed look/animation. markup ##################### < xml version="1.0" > <root xml:lang="en" xmlns="http://www.dvdforum.org/2005/ihd" xmlns:style=&q ...Show All

• Windows Forms this.Size = MdiParent.ClientSize don't work?

  I have a mdi parent, and a mdi child window. In the load event from the mdi child window I want resize it to fill all the parent window client area (i don't want to maximize the window). I have tried these code: this .Size = MdiParent.ClientSize   The problem is that the child window size is a little greater than the real client size, and on the parent window will apear scrollbars. Any solution You'll need to account for the border of the MDI client area.  This is done by multiplying the SystemInformation.Border3DSize by 2. private void MDIParentForm_Load( object sender, System.EventArgs e) { // "this" is the MDIParent form this .IsMdiContainer = true ; // create MDI ...Show All

• SQL Server Error Description differs when logged with Redirect Rows compared with Debug mode

  Hi, Can any one please tell me how to get the complete error description for example when i dont Redirect Row for Error in OLEDB Source i get a detailed error message with column name as [RCheck [385]] Error: There was an error with input column "CHECK_STATUS" (456) on input "OLE DB Destination Input" (398). The column status returned was: "The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data.". But when I set Redirect Row for error and use the Script component to log them into a Table with ErrorDescription based on ErrorColumnID it only gives me this. The data value cannot be converted for reasons other than sign mismatch or data overflow. Thanks Sat ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Power icon problem

  Hello, I've just installed the Windows Vista Beta 2 (Build 5384) and so far so good, except for one thing: somehow i can't activate the option to show the power icon on the "notification are" of the "taskbar".

Do you know what can i do to fix this problem Because of this problem, i never know when the battery is low. Thanks for your help!!

• .NET Development Dictionary Dilemma

  On the following site: http://www.devx.com/codemag/Article/32647/0/page/3 ...I'm told about the Dictionary template, and then the article gives this caveat: "If you need to sort the dictionary entries by key, you'll be better off using the new SortedDictionary class, which maintains a sort order on key." Well MAJOR DUH!!!! My whole point in reading that article was to determine why I would ever want to use the Dictionary template instead of SortedDictionary. And so I'm still wondering, when would anyone EVER have a need for a non-sorted dictionary Regarding this plain "Dictionary," there must be some esoteric piece of knowledge I'm missing. Help! My weapon of choice for implementing sets and lookup tab ...Show All

• Visual C++ Repainting Windows Form

  New to Visual C++ 2005 Express from Visual Studio 6 (MFC). I have created a Windows Form application that does a long calculation. It has a progress bar and works well as long as it does not lose focus and is not minimized. It it is, it continues to function (the window indicates "Not Responding" as does the task manager) but the display is frozen, including the progress bar, when the window is normalized. It stays that way until the calculation is complete, then displays the result normally. I have included a call to the Form Activate event wherein I have calls to Invalidate and Update the form, but that does not help. Suggestions Thanks. Thomas Because you are per ...Show All

• SQL Server Multi language for Parameter Prompt within SSRS

  I need to generate a multi language report. So I was able to create everything depending on the global variable User!Language except the prompt of the parameters of the report. The prompt seams only to be a text and is not customizable by a expression ore something else. So over all is there an option/way to show to the user the prompt in his language without creating a report for each language Thanks ...Show All

• Visual C# Intellisence Doesn't Remember Last Session

  I have visual studio 2003 installed on my computer. The intellisense was working just fine until I installed VS 2005. I don't know what happened but now everytime I start VS 2003 it doesn't remember any of the recent intellisense commands. Ex: If I type "System." it should come up as "System.Diagnostics " instead it selects the first item in the list. If I repeat the process in the same session it goes right to "System.Diagnostics". Is there anyway to fix this I found the option at Tools => Options => Text Editor => C# => Formatting. It was already checked so I unchecked it, cleared the history and rechecked it. I will see if that solves the issue ...Show All
