• Visual Studio Express Editions Visual Studio 2005 Express - how do i add and use active X controls?

  What I need to do is add an active x control to my project and use the methods from that active x control. I know how to use the object browser, add a COM component (although the one I need is missing from the list) and see it's methods. How do I add it to a form There's no Object Container control in VB2005. The help file says the Web control can be substituted 'in some cases'. I can use that and point the URL to the active x file I want to use, but then I have no way accessing its methods.

• Visual Basic Better ways for Reading And Writing to .txt files

  I am trying to create a bunch of records, there will be a limited number of "Codes", about 50. Each "Code" is associated with a name from a textbox, I was trying to have it save each one when you click a button, to a .txt file. So, from the start the record will be blank, the person will go through the form, choose a number from a numerical up and down box, pick a name associated with it (both of these are mandatory and not implied). When they click the button, it will save the contents I talked about into a .txt file, say the number is #2, and the name is "Bob", the next time they try to change that value for #2, it will overwrite "Bob". I am very unexperienced when it comes to file I\O. ...Show All

• SQL Server Integration Services Designer (Visual Studio) is very very slow

  Hi all I have some performance issues when developing Integration Service Package ... It is very very slow for example when I try to add new connection in Connection Manages, it takes about 2 minutes just to open the property window. On another pc in the same environment (Domain etc.) it works ok. In the past I have doing a lot of SSIS Packages ... Is there any cache to empty Thanks for any comments Best regards Frank Uray Do you have the SSIS service running That can sometimes speed things up because it caches information about tasks and components. Other than that - its more likely this can be attributed to hardware or network issues. I suppose it could be a million and one things. ...Show All

• SQL Server MDX Performance Issue with TOPCOUNT Using Calculated/Derived by Time Specific Members

  I am new at The MDX game and need some help. I have the following MDX that executes a wee bit to slow when I specify one of the following members (See MDX below) [Measures].[Prio Shp Unt], [Measures].[Unit Variance], [Measures].[Prio Cst Ttl], [Measures].[Prio Awp Ttl], [Measures].[BM Variance] in the TOPCOUNT statement. I have arrived at the conclusion that the problem is because I speicfy a period at the member selection that is different to the period on my where clause. Now the problem is that both the periods are user driven and can be anything from current back for the last three years. In other words the users have the option to specify which two periods they want to compare. Also the TOPCOUNT measure is user driven and can be ...Show All

• Windows Forms WebBrowser doesn't have a "find" method?

  Hey, I'm a novice here and I've been looking though the MSDN documentation on the WebBrowser control and noticed there was no method for finding text in a document. This is a pretty serious omission. Is there a way of getting this functionality you can make your own find method by searching through text in the documentText property perhaps. Remember, the webbrowser control is just a core functionality of IE, no extra fancy bits like favorites/IE options/Search box etc... ...Show All

• Visual Studio Subreport, business objects, VB, Local report

  I've been looking at the Orders example (from GotReportViewer.com) and some of the other examples, trying to figure out how to get a subreport to work using business objects. I seem to have it all correct but I get: Error Subreport could not be shown. I'm using AddHandler for the LocalReport.SubReportProcessing call and it seems to work because the Subroutine gets called for each master record in the report. I have the parameter to tie the main report to the subreport; my key field is text instead of the example's integer but that should be ok. My datasource for the subreport is a List (of ) detail records. Is there any way to find out just what the ReportViewer is objecting to Is there a walkthrough showing how the Orders app was created ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Handling events generated by Contents of ContentControl in a parent of ContentControl

  Hi, I have a control inheritted from ItemsControl which contains a number of specialized ContentControls. I would like to handle all the events (say, the MouseButtonDown events) generated by the Content of the ContentControls at the level of the parent ItemsControl. Obviously I can override the OnMouseButtonDown method in the ItemsControl, and, thanks to RoutedEvents, I will recieve all the events generated within a ContentControl. The problem is that the RoutedEventArgs.Source property is usually an item within the ContentControl rather than the ContentControl itself. What is the best approach for amalgamating events generated by the ContentControl and its contents I don't really want to define new RoutedEvents just for this purpose ...Show All
