• Visual Basic Tabbed Browser - How to add new tabs?

  Hey, I'm trying to create a simple web browser that supports tabbed browsing. (That is, using to tabs to open multiple windows without launching the program multiple times.) I have everything except the actual tab part complete. I need to know how to add a tab and assign a web browser to it. I can get it to add the tab but assignning the browser as a child is beyond my knowledge. If at all possible a full example of a tabbed browser would be most effective for not only completing the task but also for me to learn how to do it. It that is not available any help would be just as highly appreciated. I am using a TabControl and a WebBrowser for controls and both seem to work correctly. Other than that there a ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro converting xml to foxpro table

  Hi, I own an insurance and investment company and just play around with some foxpro applications for my business. I have developed several helpful database programs for such things as tracking insurance quote requests that come in, etc. in VFP ver 5.0. I just purchased VFP 9.0. I am pretty much clueless as to what xml does or how it works (i don't even know what it stands for); however, I am now in need of being able to suck data that is currently in xml format into a vfp database and vice versa. I tried playing around with the smltocursor and related commands, but they are way over my head. Is there a simple program code someone has that will just convert this for me Or is there one of you folks out there that I could hire for a small ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums CSV Report returning as binary data

  Prior to this week, I was able to retrieve reports without any problem. After getting the API back up today, I noticed that the data being returned from the report that I requested was coming back all jumbled. I believe it's coming back as a binary file and not text as it was previously. I am setting the format using report.setFormat(APIResultFileType.CSV) in Java. Is this expected behavior Should I be doing something different to read the result Is there encryption going on Thanks, Luke The issue seems to be zipping-related -- our support staff is working on this currently.

• SQL Server problem with analysis server connection string

  i have just installed a new version of analysis services 2000 on a test machine. when i try to connect to the local host i get the error "Datasource name is too long". I have set the datasource string to Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=\\serverName\MsOLAPRepository$\msmdrep.mdb This is the same string as i have on other analysis servers, bar the server name, but it still does not work. any ideas The olap service is running correctly, just in case its a detail you need to know. I assume you use Analysis Manager or DSO program to connect, and you change the "Repository Connection String" property from Analysis Manager. Can you check whether you can open msmdr ...Show All

• SQL Server Looping through source connections

  I am trying to build a package that loops through different SQL Server connections and puts the result set in a single SQL Server connection. I have looked at the Flat File example but this does not help. How do I loop through a list of SQL Servers (can be in a table, or file) make the connection to that SQL Server, run a script against Master to gather DB names (have this part) and write it to a reporting server (have this part). I have tried the For Loop and For Each Loop, but can't get either to work with SQL connections. I have seen this question a lot, with no real answers. (Everyone who answers just points back to the Flat File example) Thanks, Pete Peter Cwik wrote: Jamie, The ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Loading in new textures at runtime

  Hey guys, I have an issue. My program works like a player, and takes xml scripts which detail 2d graphics to load and display. The graphic is represented by a path that is loaded into a texture2d object and drawn. Prior to beta 2 I simply used Texture2d.fromfile to do this, and it worked fine. Now however that function is prohibitively slow and so I have been advised to use the content manager. Unfortunately the content manager wont load my images, claiming it cant find them even when given an absolute path. I am guessing this is because the images need to be included in the solution prior to building, but this is impossible in this instance as the user has full control over what images they wish to display So, any ideas on how I can e ...Show All

• Windows Forms Treeview automatically collapsing when placed in an Mdi Child

  I have a Treeview inside of a form that is set to be an Mdi child (ie, MdiParent = someFormReference). The form has been changed such that clicking on the X does not close the form but hides it, instead. When one clicks the X, the form hides, as expected, but all nodes on the Treeview collapse and don't trigger any collapsing events (OnBeforeCollapse or OnAfterCollapse). If I don't set the MdiParent property, clicking the X doesn't collapse the tree, so showing the form still has the previously expanded nodes in their correct state. Does anyone have any ideas as to why this might be happening and how to work around it I could reproduce your problem by setting the Visible property to false and e.Cancel ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Game.Tick

  Rather than using Game.Run, I need to manually handle the game loop. Sort of like this equivalent scenario using winforms: someForm.Show(); while(someForm.Created) { //Insert rendering stuff here Application.DoEvents(); } So, how would I use Game.Tick() to accomplish the same thing I see that there's a Game.IsActive property, but it returns false when I try the following: while(myGame.IsActive) { //Insert rendering stuff here myGame.Tick(); } This of course exits immediately. I assume I need to get the game active before calling Tick; can I do that without Game.Run() As it is, Game.IsActive is based on the "activeness" (is that a word ) of the window that the Game created for you.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Security Authentication Approach

  Hi, Is it possible to do an authentication in a security session (tcp) and leave it after authenticated, but continue connected without any security I want only to secure the 'username' and 'password' and no more, so I need only to create a secure session, authenticate and leave it...but continue using the same connection ( PerSession ) without security. Many web site does it for user authentication.
