• Smart Device Development screen resolution

  Hi, we work on small app for Pocket PC 2003 (c++/MFC). I code DLL which creates forms and workmate calls it from main app. Problem is that my forms are four times bigger and not all controls are visible when called from his app. When I test that DLL using my test app all is ok. I tried to add this call to DLL: int cxscreen=GetSystemMetrics(SM_CXSCREEN); Now DLL returns 480 when called from my test app and 240 when called from his app. We suppose that problem can be in that he started his project in eVC4 and lately converted it to VS 2005. I am using VS 2005 from start. We both has same iPAQs for tetsing. We probably miss some project setting or something similar, thx for any t ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Managed version of lineDrop in Windows Mobile 5.0?

  I'm trying to write an application that drops calls from known telemarker numbers. The SystemState class in the Windows Mobile 5 SDK makes it easy to detect incoming calls and determine the number. However the matter of dropping the call is a whole other issue. AFAIK, there is no facility in the Compact Framework for this (correct ). I've looked at OpenNETCF and Alex Feinman's TAPI wrapper (which I don't believe works on Windows Mobile 5). Am I missing something or is there simply no way to do this Thanks, Matt Correct, there's no facility in NETCF to do it, so use TAPI. Alex's TAPI wrapper should work on WM 5.0 just fine. If you have a specific issue with it, please post a message and describe ...Show All

• .NET Development Change the background color on individual cells within the .Net 2003 datagrid

  Peoples... In VB6 you can specify a range of cells (or an idividual cell) in a datagrid and set it's background color to display whatever color you want. I haven't seen a way to do this in the .Net 2003 Datagrid. You can change it when you click on it or you can change a row or column but what I want to be able to do is change the color at the cell level. In other words, I may only want to "highlight" a few cells within a column. Does anyone know how to do this or is this a known limitation Also, has this been addressed in .Net 2005 And, lastly, if the answers are NO and NO to the last 2 question above, I can't help but wonder who worked on the .Net datagrid for MS It seems to me that this is a step backward considering that ...Show All

• Smart Device Development problems with VS2005 and IE7

  Hi, if running VS2005 with IE7 (the beta, the final or the WinVista RC1 included one) it is not possible to create a new C++ "Smart Device" project. If I choose to create a "Win32 Smart Device Project" with Visual C++, enter a name for the project in the "New Project" dialog i'll get the "blub" sound, wich also appears if internet explorer blocks a pop up or an addon, and Visual Studio falls back to the "New Project" dialog instead of showing the details for creating the new application. i guess this has something to do with the internet explorer security settings and so I tried to disable them all or setting them to the lowest possible level... has anybody an idea how to get VS ...Show All

• Visual C# Quick Find in visual studio 2005 disappeared

  I used to be able to hit control key and F key, it pops up the Quick Find window, now this does not work anymore. All the options listed under pulldown menu Edit and Find and Replace do not display any window. it just did nothing. could anyone please let me know how to get those functions back. I'm glad I found this thread. I just had the same problem with VS2005. After uninstalling VS and reinstalling, the Find dialog still would not appear. I thought this might have something to do with having VS2003 and VS2005 installed--but seemed unlikely. After reading this thread I looked closely and found the dialog hidden off screen at the bottom right edge of my screen, just enough to put my mouse over ...Show All
