• Visual C++ Cannot run in debug mode

  Hi, I am a person with a very basic knowledge of C++. I'm using Visual C++ 2005 express edition and installed Microsoft PSDK on top of it. My programs are running fine but when I try to debug, there are errrors. The same is happening with all the projects. Here is a simple code example: #include<iostream> #include<conio.h> using namespace std; int main() { cout<<"Hello World!!!"<<endl; cout<<"This is a test program..."<<endl; //Breakpoint here cout<<"Goodbye..."<<endl; _getch(); return 0; } After setting a breakpoint, when I run the code in debug mode (F5), then the breakpoint is not hit and execution of program goes on. The breakpoint b ...Show All

• SQL Server Do I need multiple versions of Northwind?

  I am learning SQL Server 2005 Express, and want to use the Northwind data base as used in many code examples. I wanted to attach the Northwind data base via SQL Management Studio, but cannot find a Northwind.mdf file. When I do a search using 'Northwind', I see there are already a couple of different versions of Northwind already loaded. One appears to be associated with SQL Server Mobile Edition (Samples folder) and another seems to be associated with Visual Studio 8\SDK\v2.0\Quickstart. Can I use one of these existing Northwind databases (none have .mdf extention) for SQL Server 2005 or do I need to download yet another version Here are links to the Northwind, Pubs, and AdventureWorks sample dat ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Error While Coding!!

  I am following a book's direction to code, but when i entered this startment ' For intForLoopCtr = 1 To CInt (txtNoPics.Text) ' <<<<<<<< then it said 'intForLoopCtr" is not decared....... so anyone have any idea to make it decleared OK I'll lay this out clearly. You are using variables such as blnFullSetComplete before you have declared them. You need to use a statement like dim blnFullSetComplete as Boolean beforehand to specifically declare the variable and type prior to using it. This is probably because you have used option explicit on. It doesnt matter the variable name, type or construct you are using it in - the same thing applies - you need to declar ...Show All

• Windows Forms discarding user actions on a form while in busy state

  Hi, I can't seem to figure out a decent way to do this. I have a small window, and I need to discard user input while performing some lenghty task. For example, if the user wants to sync the app with a server, and this takes time. The proper behavior would be to change the cursor to a busy cursor, and prevent the user from touching any control on the form. Of course, painting should still be done, and the form should be able to move and resize (user actions like move, resize, maximize, minimize). When the job is done, the cursor changes back to the default one, and the user is able to interact with the received data. I've seen various sugestions: - disable the controls (or the whole form): not good, as the appearance of the c ...Show All

• SQL Server Mix Relative and strict dates

  I am trying to write a report where I can have a drop down with values like yesterday,today,lastweek. But I also want the user to be able to select a specific range, say 7/1/2006 to 7/5/2006. Also why can't i update the value of a parameter through to an expression Like set the value to =Today(). It throws an error about the type. Can someone point me in the right direction here I am trying to get the user be able to select either the relative dates, yesterday, lastweek... OR select a strict date range in a linked report. Also do you know if there is a control which only displays the parameters of the report, which can be used to display them. ...Show All

• SQL Server Combining multiple subreports into a single report

  The goal is to produce a single PDF consisting of a number of subreports. Some are landscape, others are portrait. The subreports may also be run as independent reports. The master report that contains them defaults to the width of the widest subreport, which is landscape. This causes all portrait subreports to spill over producing blank pages. Are there any work-arounds to concatenate multiple, single report PDFs into a single PDF and have page numbering too Thanks! The code sample above should have a subscript in brackets but I guess that is also the symbol for an idea. How funny! ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista SetOutputFileName for GraphBuilder

  Hello, SetOutputFileName is used for a CaptureGraphBuilder. What is the equivalent for a simple GraphBuilder Thank you, Christophe, ICaptureGraphBuilder is deprecated in favor of ICaptureGraphBuilder2. ICaptureGraphBuilder2 needs a call to SetFiltergraph() in order to know what GraphBuilder object to work with. SetOutputFileName automates the process of building the graph. However, you can always build the graph manually by using IFilterGraph::AddFilter to add the filters you prefer, and connecting the pins of the filters. ...Show All
