• Software Development for Windows Vista Overlaying Simple Text on a video capture Application

  Hi All, I am a beginning programmer and this is my first time doing any DirectShow Application and was hoping that I could be provided with some help. Basically, I want to use the playcap.exe (packaged in the c++ samples folder) video capture application and overlay text on the video.

• Visual Studio Express Editions How to suppress radiobutton click or another approach?

  New user of VB 2005 Express. My application has a form that contains a few radiobutton groups. The user selects the desired buttons and eventually hits an OFF button and his selections are written to a file. The next time the application is executed, the form is opened and the file is read, setting the buttons to the values they had when the last execution terminated (this is done in the form Load event). All works well, but the click event for the radiobuttons is being executed as I set the "checked" . That causes some other program actions to occur which are undesirable at this time. Question is: how can I set the radiobuttons via the code without triggering the click event As an alternative, is there some way that I can ...Show All

  Hi all, I am a newbie on C# socket programming.

• .NET Development retrieving a UDT from a SqlServer Express 2005 function via C#

  I'm just learning about UDTs and SqlServer Express, and am trying to figure out what's possible and what's not using a simple example. I have created my own UDT (called EventDBEntity, not a very good name!) and registered it in my SqlServer Express 2005 database using Visual Studio 2005. I need to have a SqlServer Express function return a UDT to my C# code. In SqlServer, I created a scalar-valued function to return a UDT to me - in the function it queries data from a table and puts it in a new EventDBEntity and returns the new EventDBEntity. This is different from most of the MSDN examples I see in that I have no column of type EventDBEntity, instead I am trying to create the object on the fly and return it back. The function gives bac ...Show All

• Visual Basic coding charts with data in datagrid: is there a good way?

  I have actualy posted something like this before but i think i asked the wrong questions....here the scenario: i have managed to make my app draw out data from an access file based on user input. my lecuturer have ask me to make the app able to generate charts on that data based on further user input. I realised that the data is now in the datagrid and no longer in access. There were some suggestions from this forum (thanks guys ) that the best way to go ahead with making charts is using the pivot table (note: i fully intend to use/intergrate axcel or execel features with my app) with some input from the user. is there any way of doing this without any complications my vb.net skills are quite rudimentary at best.
