• Windows Forms Login.Live.Com --> How to create a login dialog box?

  I need to create a web browser that shows a login box for login.live.com, and submits the user's e-mail and password to login. Is there a way to do this in C# Thanks, I am not sure if I got your doubt. Would you like to authenticate an user into the live.com server Maybe you can achieve this by logging into the MSN server. A tutorial in how to do this can be found at http://www.codeproject.com/cs/internet/connectingtomsn.asp ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Speech / Voice API?

  I'm sorry, I don't have the documentation in front of me at the moment, but if I recall correctly, XNA does not have any speech recognition capabilities at the moment. Will that be something that might be made available Since there is already a managed version of SAPI5 it seems like it could be done fairly easily. I suspect Managed SAPI is a wrapper over native code which means it won't run on the 360. Also XNA does not give any access to the microphone so the also won't work on the 360. On the PC you can use otehr APIs to get the microphone and yes you should be able to connect that to SAPI somehow. However XNA doesn't have anything built in to help you. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Problems with libraries being displayed on Quick Launch bar

  I have tried to change the doc libraries that are displayed on the Quick Launch on the TFS sharepoint but it is inconsistent at best. Checking/unchecking the button in "modify columns" does not work on built- in item. When a built-in item was removed through Visual Studio, all of the libraries disappeared from Quick Launch except Project Management. Has anyone had any luck sorting the reports not appearing problem I can't believe modifying the site from inside Visual Studio does this, because it means that I'll be constantly repairing the site whenever a user changes it. ...Show All

• SQL Server Multi-Server Jobs

  Why is it that when viewing Multi-Server Jobs on the MSX Server via Management Studio (Server\SQL Agent\Jobs\Multi-Server Jobs), only jobs that are in the default [Uncategorized (Multi-Server)] category appear Any other Multi-Server job that has been put into a different category is displayed under the Local Jobs folder. A master server distributes jobs to, and receives events from, target servers. A master server also stores the central copy of job definitions for jobs that are run on target servers. Target servers connect periodically to the master server to update their schedule of jobs. If a new job exists on the master server, the target server downloads the job. After the target server completes the job, it reconnects to the ma ...Show All

• Visual C# Using the JLCA in VS2005

  I can not find how to launch the JLCA in VS2005 Team Edition. I explictly installed it as that is one tool I use a lot. The help file tells me to use the Convert on the File MEnu, however it is not there and in fact the File menu terminolgy has changed a bit from VS2003, so I think the help file is just a recycle from that product no one checked. Any idea on how to launch the JLCA Kent Hi Kent Sorry for replying late. For JLCA related queries please mail to java-net@microsoft.com for quick reply. Please visit the blog entry here - https://blogs.msdn.com/gauravseth/archive/2006/02/16/533425.aspx for launching JLCA in VS2005. Hope this helps. Thanks Natarajan Arumugam. ...Show All

• Windows Forms 2 DataGridView Questions

  1. I am binding my data grid view to the results of a stored procedure. The user can then modify the data in the datagridview. (Add, remove, update). I want to display the updates in the data grid view as they are made but only commit the changes to the database when the user presses a save button. What is the best way to do this 2. My data is stored in the database in UTC time. How can I force the data to be displayed in the datagridview in local time. Thanks in advance. 1) Well, for this save button, ask them if they wish to save changes, if they select NO then reject the changes to the dataset (which has been bound to the datagridview). Example: theDataSet.RejectChanges(); this will then ...Show All

• Windows Forms Looking for best approach for MSMoney Look-A-Like [VB]

  If you're familiar with MS Money; I am developing an application that has the look and feel of Money but different functionality. How do they do it or what is the best approach. I've read several ideas, but before I start I wanted to get additional feedback: The concept: A Customer button that opens a customer "home" page with customer specific tasks located in the spine with the results displayed in the window to the right. A Reports button that opens a Reports "home" page, again functioning the same as above. There will be several of this "pages"... I've thought of using the MDI/Child approach but the number of panes used in each group became difficult to manage. I've thought of the SDI app ...Show All

• Windows Forms ListView Help

  Hello All, I need a little help with my listview. I have a list view with 5 columns that are being filled by 5 variables. I also have a while loop that updates the variables continuously and I want to update the listview at the same interval.... I know i can use : listView.Items.Clear(); (then re-add the item) listView.Items.Add(..) however i causes a severe flicker and will not allow the user to highlight a row... I have tried to use Update and Refresh, however this doesn't seem to update the row with the updated variables... Any Ideas Thanks, Andrew Maybe while you are trying to highlight a row, you are re-adding the items, so you can't highlight it. Do you really have to do refresh every moment ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System outside changes to solution don't make it into tfs

  OK We use an orm to create a data layer for our apps. This orm generates classes and modifies the project file from it's own ide. After a change, the vs.net ide says "hey you changed the project file, do you want to reload". I hit yes, and any new classes it generates are in my project now. The problem is that the new files don't make it into tfs like they used to with vss. Is there some way I can fix this Right now I have to remember to remove the new files with exclude from project and readd them back which is a royal pain. Even a right mouse click that had a add to tfs would be ok. Thanks. Richard Berg MSFT wrote: Like Steve said, you have to make sure TFS knows about the chan ...Show All

• SQL Server Sort component sets unknown state

  Hi Forum, I'm using several sort components in my dataflow task (for all now saying uuhh, in normal flow they are all not used, only in lookup failures). I know that the sort component is more than slow and deprecated. So when I find some rows with a foreign key not yet in my dimTable, I throw them in another branch and sort them / aggregate them for insertion. After that, I wanna lookup again. So I have to wait for all inserts to complete. So I use the sort component, which has to wait for all rows, and sort for my business key. All rows inserted and sorted I lookup again. This scenario worked for me in a lot of packages with a lot of rows. So why do I post :-) I now hav another package. As of processing the stream, 1796 ...Show All
