• Visual C# Toolbars for Windows Taskbar in C#

  Hi all. Does anyone know how to make a Toolbar that would be located at Windows Taskbar (like language bar etc) Is there any tools for this in .NET, or do i have to take a deep dive in Win API I'd like to do a simple battery meter or something like that. I could of course use NotifyButtons, but a larger toolbar object would be cool looking. Thanks for any advice, AK I tried to look from codeproject but I had no idea that I had to look for "Desk Band". So thank you very much for info :) ...Show All

• .NET Development Ping timeout < 500 ms

  Hi, I have to connect to many machines defined in IP addresses ranges at startup. In these ranges, it is possible that some IP addresses does not exist or some machines are not started so I Ping (using System.Net.NetworkInformation.Ping) each IP address before trying to connect to it to prevent big Tcp timeout. It seems that, whatever timeout I specified < 500 ms, a Ping timeout is always at least 500 ms ! As I have to ping a lot of machines, I would like to specify a timeout of about 100 or 200 ms. To avoid too many threads, I send the ping sequentially in 1 dedicated thread. Thanks in advance, Droopy. Have you tried overloaded, Ping.Send() or Ping.Async() which takes second argument as TimeOut But i ...Show All

• .NET Development system menu doesn't display

  Hi, In a certain application it's required that I can make use of the system menu. I mean the menu which usually pops up after a right mouse click on the top bar of a window and which lists options as: minimize, maximize, close etc. However on a certain form I don't get this system menu after right clicking on the top bar. Just nothing happens. I haven't made any click events or other events that could interfere. I also see no difference with other forms in which the menu DOES show show up after right clicking on the top bar. Any ideas They would be greatly appreciated!! Well thanks but that property is true. The system menu DOES show I now found out when left clicking with my mouse in the icon in the le ...Show All

• Windows Live Developer Forums Altitude?

  Hi, I've noticed in 3D view that the browser status bar displays the current Altitude at the cursor/map position. How can I retrieve this value programmatically Say...when the user clicks on the map. Can't seem to find anything in the docs or in forums... thanks for any help alan Hi, thanks for your replies The GetAltitude() method isn't the same thing. From what I can tell, it returns the altitude of the camera (the current height of the view position). I'm talking about the altitude of land above sea level. For example, if you go into 3D mode and run the cursor over sea, the altitude will be "0 feet". Run it towards a shore and it will increase. I need to retrieve that value.

• SQL Server Transactional Push Distribution Agent Slow

  We have quite a lot of Transactional replication, and over the past few weeks it had become quite slow. I spent the last few days trying to resolve the problem and found that a Push subscription was delivering transactions at about 50/sec and a Pull subscription was delivering at around 700/sec. This test was run on the Same publication, same subscriber so hardware and links are all the same, the only difference was the type of subscription. I've since changed a few of our subscriptions for the larger publications and have found they run quicker than previously. Has anyone else seen this behavour and is there a valid reason why this would occur. The distributor and subscriber are both running SQL2005 SP1 and the publisher is SQL2000 ...Show All

• SQL Server Database engine tunning advisor and triggers

  Hi, I captured a trace using the profiler and provided the trace to the tunning advisor for analysis of the indexes. I am not convinced that it processes the triggers properly. I used the tunning template on the profiler and confirmed that the code from the triggers is captured. However, in the tunning advisor I am getting an error message like this: E000 INSERT INTO SP ( FkSID, FkRPID, FkSPStID, NPR ) SELECT SID, RPID, 0, NPR FROM INSERTED INNER JOIN RP ON INSERTED.FkCID = RP.FkCID WHERE 0 = INSERTED.IA 2 [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Invalid object name 'INSERTED'.

• Community Chat Need a Web-Based File Manager

  Does anyone know of a good web-based file manager It needs to act as an alternative to FTP. It should be able to create/modify/delete users through an administrator account. The administrator should be able to set rights on a folder to give certain users different levels of access (read/write). It will be used mostly for the admin to upload files and create a temporary account for the user to download from specified folders, but the possibility should exist for users to be able to upload files as well. I've looked at HTTP Commander , but it gives the administrator full access to the server. All of the activity of this software needs to be contained to one main folder of the server.
