• Visual Studio Tools for Office Problem Installing VS 2005 Tools for the MS Office System

  I can't seem to install Visual Studio 2005 Tools for the MS Office System over a PC running Windows XP. I bought and installed MS Office Student and Teacher Edition 2003. During VS installation, it asks for MS Office 2003 SP1. So I downloaded the 75MB executable patch and install that. I re-run the installation CD and it still keeps asking me for MS Office 2003 SP1. Help. Hi Richi VSTO requires the Office 2003 PRO version. Other versions don't contain the necessary functionality (extended XML), so VSTO won't install. The requirements are listed here The following topic in the VSTO 2005 documentation lists the versions of Office that are supported on the development computer ("design time") ...Show All

• Visual C++ CListBox And GetText

  In my project(Visual studio 2005, MFC, Uincode character), I add some string to a CListBox, In the case no owner draw set, it work well; but if I use owner draw set variable, and in my MyListBox DrawItem function, I use GetText to get item string, it always get the Error data no I add to. Why How I can get the right string; I think besides the LBS_OWNERDRAWVARIABLE style, you have to specify the LBS_HASSTRINGS style too. In this case "the list box maintains the memory and addresses for the strings so that the application can use the LB_GETTEXT message to retrieve the text for a particular item" [MSDN]. For more information see MSDN. I hope it helps. ...Show All

• Visual Basic Need help exporting VB.Net variables/data to VBA macro

  Hi I'm using VBA AutoCAD for drawing, but instead of defining parameters in VBA, I would like to take those parameters from VB.Net codes. Here is an example Sub CreateCylinder() Dim CylinderObj As Acad3DSolid Dim center(0 To 2) As Double Dim radius As Double Dim height As Double ' Define the cylinder parameters center(0) = 5#: center(1) = 5#: center(2) = 0 radius = 10#: height = 20# ' Create the cylinder in model space Set CylinderObj = ThisDrawing.ModelSpace.AddCylinder(center, radius, height) End Sub This VBA code will create a cylinder at co-ordinates (5,5,0) with radius = 10 and height = 20.

• Visual Studio Express Editions Printing my project

  Hi there; I have done quite some programming recently in VBA for Excel, and now I am toying with VBA Express 2005. And I have a question. A silly one..... In VBA for Ecel, when I want to print all my code and forms, I just go to the print dialog, and then I am presented with the option to print both code and forms. Or just code, or just forms. Howver, in VBA espress 2005, with a form selected, the print/page setup option in the File has been grayed out. I seem to be able to only print selected modules (=text), not forms. Am I missing something Thymen The IDE doesn't support it. You are not the first to request this feature. Check out this Product Feedback entry and add your vote. ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista CBaseFilter::Notify

I may think wrong about this interface. I'll talk about what have I done. My purpose is send and custom notify from my input pin to my filter. I suppose my notify passing Graph after my filter.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Can I make a Resident Evil=type game with XNA?

  Hi all, Longtime gamer and complete noob when it comes to actually designing a game. Basically, I work in entertainment and have long wanted the chance to tell a strong narrative story in a game. When I heard about XNA I thought this might be a great way for me to learn and experiment with just how one designs a game. Now, I'm not expecting RE4 but I'm basically wanting to know if I could make something along the lines of the first RE or even simpler the first MYST. I don't care if all the backgrounds are pictures, etc. But I DO want to try my hands at level design, voice-acting for dialogue and simple generic baddies to kill, oh and an inventory of weapons! Anyways, looking forward to downloading the beta version tomorrow! ...Show All

• SQL Server accessing MS Access data from SQL 2005

  I have tried using stored procedures to create linked servers, which is fine, but when I launch the query I get the message that the Access database file is not found. Using OpenDataSource has the same behaviour. I need to make an SQL join from t-SQL between a table in Access and a table in SQL 2005. Who can help Double check when you create the linked server that you properly configure the security options. Typically you should set "Be made using the login's current security context" option if you are using integrated security. The problem is the security context needs to have read and write access to the folder where the Access database resides. ...Show All

• SQL Server Derived Column Transformations - DT_STR operand cannot be used with the conditional operation

  Hi all I am trying to convert the string "(null)" in the [PASSWORD] column of my table to an actual NULL value. I have tried to use two different forms of a conditional operator to achieve this end. However I am getting the below errors both can be summed up with the following statement. DT_STR operand cannot be used with the conditional operation. The expression directly below however is using a type DT_I4 in the conditional clause as this is what FINDSTRING returns. Hence the equivalencey test to the literal integer 0. So I must say I am somewhat confused by this. Does anyone know why neither of the below statements are working Also is there an easy way to accomplish what I am trying to do - convert the string "(n ...Show All
