• Windows Forms CollectionTypeConverter / ArrayTypeConverter with PropertyGrid

  I have a class which has a string[] property. When I plug it into a PropertyGrid without any attribute it shows up as an ellipsis, which opens a string collection editor dialog (multiline edit, one string per line). This is all well and good except that I want to be able to choose from a list of given values for that collection. I tried deriving from StringConverter and overriding GetStandardValues(). This caused the property to appear as a combo box instead of a collection (ellipsis). I've also tried to derive from CollectionConverter and ArrayConverter, but as soon as I override ConvertTo() or any other method the same thing happens. Any suggestions I need to be able to choose multiple values (a collection). For each item in the c ...Show All

• Audio and Video Development Best way to start play of a title and play all?

  The functional demo I'm making has a list of several titles. Each title is played by selecting a button. These are the two methods I have tried for kicking off a title: Player.playlist.titles["videoFoo"].chapters[0].top(); Player.playlist.titles["videoFoo"].jump("00:00:00:00", false); First question: is one method better/more appropriate than the other I ask because it seems like the iHD simulator has trouble with the second method - sometimes the video is blank/black while you can hear the audio. If you select a specific title I want that title to play and then end. However I want the option to select 'Play All' and go through all the titles from start to finish. Second question: what is the best way to d ...Show All

• SQL Server Results To Text File: Always Unicode

  Hi I have been using the 'Results To' to write out query results to a csv file.  I have found that it always encodes the output as a Unicode. This causes problems with other import utilities that read this file and doubles the size of the file compared to a ANSI encoded file How can I change the way the file is encoded i.e ANSI   I can't see anything in the Query Options and outputting files in UNICODE isn't a workable option. For small files I can open them in notepad and change the encoding to ANSI and save AS.  This isn't an option for files that are around 500m-1GB Can anyone shed some light on this. Thanks for your help   That's a pity. Luckily, I su ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Using iterations in MS Project

  I have a project that we have recently migrated into TFS. I am trying to use MS Project to schedule/track my work items, and I am having a problem with the iterations. It seems to me that an iteration, in Project, should be a rollup of a number of subtasks, but I can't seem to get them to show up this way. Is there some way of doing this, or am I not understanding how iterations should be used TIA Ron L Randy Thanks for the response. I tried doing that, but Project doesn't seem to get all of the tasks under the proper iteration. The overall idea seems to be what I am looking for, but the implementation seems to miss something.

• Visual Studio Team System Problems displaying newly created & renamed iterations

  I am able to create & rename iterations when right-clicking the project & selecting Areas & Iterations, but the changes I make aren't apparent in the Classification frame when creating or modifying a bug/task etc. We are developing our TFS structure and it was working fine, but I needed to delete all projects and recreate them in a parent/child structure, then import all of the existing work items back into the new project. - Greg The problem can be the cache, TFS caches information to work faster, so try close everything and check if you see the newly created data, there has been a lot of posts about cache you can find in this forums. ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL Agent Step Notification

  I have several SQL Agent jobs that each contain multiple steps. I want the job to continue, even if one step fails, as they are not dependent on each other. However, if I set it up so that the goes to the next step on failure, it appears that I have no way of being notified of the failure, since the job ends successfully. Am I missing something Is there a notification that can be sent if a step fails Thanks Bob So, rather than having a step failure action for send mail, I will have to setup a second step for every step that I have... I was afraid of that. I have 22 steps now, making this solution a maintenance nightmare. To be honest, that's what I thought. MSFT- any chance of getting more granular on the notifi ...Show All
