• Visual Studio Express Editions Publishing to a free webserver?

  i just finished making a program and now i want to publish it to a free bravenet webserver... i keep getting errors and i dont know what is wrong.. could someone please try this for me and give me directions on how to make it work... or let me know if this is even possable...

I hope you are able to edit that file if need be.   I think I was wrong in tems of what I said about execution. If you get the pieces up there along with the web page, you should be OK. ...Show All

• SharePoint Products and Technologies Can't search within PDF files

  I've installed the Adobe Ifilter 6.0 and can now search to list posted pdf files in multiple sites by querying the pdf name. I can search content within Word files, but still cannot search content within these pdf files. Is there something else I need to configure to see content within these pdf files I can't seem to find any clues to what needs to be tweaked. Thanks. I'm having the same issue. My Operating System is Windows 2003 R2 x64 with SQL Server 2005 and WSS 3.0. I'm running the latest iFilter version -- 6.0 and have verified all registry settings. Some of the pdf files are indexing properly, but I believe that the ones created with Adobe 8.0 are not indexing content at all. I assume this is a ...Show All

• Windows Forms Uninstall Online-Only Click-Once

  I am deploying a click-once windows app as online-only. It works fine for most clients but one client keeps getting an old version of the click-once windows app. When he hits the url to install/launch the app, it never downloads the newest version. I searched his pc for the previous versions and he has more than 6 old versions. I thought at most only two versions of click-once app will be kept on client pc at any time. Is there a way to completely uninstall the click-once from his pc Since this is online-only, the app is not showing up in Add/Remove Programs. ...Show All

• SQL Server Displaying Report in Web Application

  I am trying to develop a web application that shows several reports on the same page. I am using VS.NET 2005 for my dev environment, and am using the Report Viewer control. Because I want to display several reports on the same page at the same time, the space allocated to each report is very small. In the report I only want to display charts. The problem I'm having is the in the 200px by 200px space for the report, the quality of the chart in the report is very poor (I know 200 by 200px is not very big and OF COURSE the quality is going to be poor). I've tried readjusting the size of the report, the change, etc; but with no luck. Do any of you know a way in which to change the quality, maybe the dpi, of the image being rendered by th ...Show All

• Visual C++ Can you share global variables between a DLL and a calling program?

  Can you share global variables between a DLL and a calling program If so I would appreciate any tips. I tried putting the global variables in the DLL but it crashed when the VB porgram tried to call it. Ted. wrote: Not entirely accurate - a global variable can be per process, not necessarily per module, i.e. it can be shared between a DLL and EXE (both built in C++) simply using the __declspec(dllexport) and __declspec(dllimport) keywords (or by using a DEF file). Create a DLL, and export a variable from it, and you can access it from any other DLL within the process, or the EXE that links to the DLL. It depends on terminology. The term global is used to refer to variables made global using "extern". Actually, ...Show All

• SQL Server how to configure TCP port for unattended install

  I've looked through every source of material on SQL Server Express unattended installs that I could get my hands on, but so far, I've come up with nothing that shows how to set the server engine's TCP port to 1433 . Since the SQL Server setup is part of a (considerably) larger install, requiring the customer to set this by hand is not really acceptable. Is there a way to do this with a command-line parameter (etc) Thanks in advance Josh Sorry for not getting here sooner, there is no way to configure the TCP port during installation that is built in. You should be able to write a script that does it, and that script can be called once SQL Express has been installed. Check out the options av ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Loading PolicyActivity Rules At Runtime

  I'm looking for a way to load an XML ruleset for a workflow for a policy activity at runtime rather than compiling it into the assembly as a resource. Are there examples that show how this can be done The scenario I'm looking at is one where a Workflow has to read in arbitrary user defined rules (which may possibly pass through a filter first to format it for WF). Or perhaps I'm thinking about this in the wrong way Have you taken a look at the External Ruleset example found here ...Show All

• SQL Server How to transfer database to mobile device?

  Hi all, I'm new to mobile devices. I have a desktop application that uses SQL Server Compact Edition. I will soon have a mobile application that will use the same database. How can I (at runtime of the desktop app, say when the user clicks a button) transfer the sdf file to the mobile device I'm not necessarily interested in synchronizing the databases, simply overwriting the database on the mobile device with the one on the desktop would suffice. Is something like this possible Thanks! ...Show All

  The MRefBuilder command line option "/internal+" no longer works. Is this a bug or is there a new way to enable documentation of private and internal members Eric Eric, There is no change in functionality. The only thing we added was the ability in MrefBuilder.config to rip Namespace, Types and members. There is a sample provided under comments in MrefBuilder.config. I am checking on to find if this regressed in our CTP. We apologize for this and if this is a regression we will provide a hotfix. Anand.. ...Show All
