• Smart Device Development Uppercase, lowercase and numeric InputPanel

  I'm writing a VB 2005 form that will have to accept several user inputs in several textboxes. The InputMethod of the InputPanel (SIP) that users will use will be the keyboard (99% of the users ) I'm enabling the SIP when the user clicks on a text box. I would like to directly show the SIP in the numeric keyboard option when I know that users will have to enter numeric values, or to the uppercase keyboard when I know that users will have to enter only uppercase values. I've not been able to find a way to do it I can change the InputMethod from keyboard to character recognizer, but I'm not able to switch from the "normal" keyboard to the "uppercase" keyboard or the "numeric" keyboard, like when the ...Show All

• Gadgets Bug #25: Flyout will only show if Sidebar has focus.

  Bug #25: Flyout will only show if Sidebar has focus. If you show the Flyout via "System.Gadget.Flyout.show = true" and Sidebar doesn't have focus, the "System.Gadget.Flyout.onHide" event immediately fires. Added to the known bugs list with a Repro. I expect it's by design, but there's no mention of it in the MSDN documentation so I'm classing it as a bug. Firing the onHide event immediately could cause code issues, as any code relying on the Flyout body would fail. To catch onHide event misfires, check if the Flyout body is null: function onHideEvent() { //did the Flyout actually open if (System.Gadget.Flyout.document.parentWindow.body == null) return; //the Flyout was open. } ...Show All

• Windows Forms Best way to capture changes made by PropertyGrid?

  Hi all, I'm writing an application in C# where I use PropertyGrids to modify collections of objects. Some of the properties of the objects are also displayed by other controls. What I'd like to know is how best to intercept the changes made by the PropertyGrid so I can update the other controls. Right now I've written my own container that has events for when items in the collection are modified. I handle these events and update the other controls. This seems to work fine but I'm wondering if there is a better/easier way to do this. Also, this method could become cumbersome and difficult to maintain if I have to write lots of different containers. You could write an handler for the PG' ...Show All

• Visual Studio Visual SourceSafe on Cluster environment

  Hi, Can you please let me know whether Visual SourceSafe can be configured to be on a Cluster environment If yes, please let me know how it could be done.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Farfetched?

  To create a non-XNA game do people use a graphics engine, or do they create everything from scratch. To me, creating a game, out of nothing, just seems impossible to me. I know it has been done, but does the majority of the community use graphics engines There won't really be one single answer to this - it'll vary from project to project and from developer to developer. In general, software re-use is a big part of the development process. Using a pre-made engine, or re-using technology from previous projects is usually a good thing - you get the advantage of a tested and understood platform but the disadvantage of having to work within the constraints defined by the existing technology (e.g. making a r ...Show All

• SQL Server Report Delivery problem with Data Driven Subscription

  I created a data driven subscription for a report that will email a copy of the report based on a parameter passed from a table. The report runs successfully as indicated in Report Manager but the email is not delivered. I checked the ReportServerService log file and a message states that the report was sent to the proper email address. There is another log, ReportServerWebApp, that shows the message "The extension Report Server Email does not have a LocalizedNameAttribute" . I created a regular subscription and it emails the report successfully so it can't be the SMTP server. Any ideas how I can fix this problem with the Data Driven Subscription Thank you.

• Visual C# Wierd error : Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt

  Ok I have a project that runs fine from the IDE, the problem is if I install the app or run it from the bin\release folder then I get this error on one of my method calls. I have tried this on a test machine and on my development machine and the results are the same. I have spent hours trying to figure this one out....... The crazy thing is, the method shows up in the stack trace but there is not code at all executed in that method. Thank you for your suggestion, however this didn't help me in my case. I'm seeing this exception when calling an extern method on a COM DLL. It's still early-days for my debugging, but it's quite frustrating. This worked fine with VS 2003, and I'm only seeing it now I try to upg ...Show All
