• Visual Basic vb 2005 Tab(n) Printing

  I an trying to set absolute positions when printing a schedule using Tab(n). which I have successfully used in vb6 i.e. (info(0,i); Tab(4) ; info(1,i); Tab(15);) an so on. I can print with Spaces and Format but each are text length sensitive which do not register correctly in the printed schedule. The numerous books do not seem to cover this point. Help would be appreciated. hemo If you are printing on the Console you may try positioning your cursor directly with SetCursorPosition: =============== Public Shared Sub SetCursorPosition (ByVal left As Integer , ByVal top As Integer ) Member of: System . Console Summary: Sets the position of the cursor. P ...Show All

• Visual C# Problem: The breakpoint will not currently be hit. No symbols have been loaded for this document

  Hi, I've run into a problem that seems to defy a solution. Bottom line: When I'm attempting to debug with VS 2005, I cannot set an effective breakpoint in one of the source files. The breakpoint is the hollowed-out reddish/yellow circle, and VS says that the breakpoint won't work because the symbols are not loaded. I've found several discussions in this forum about this type of problem, but there's no concensus that I could find on how to solve the problem. Some background might be in order. I have been developing a "data binder" for use in a forms UI application that has multiple threads. There are three projects/classes in the solution, one for a test mainline, using forms, one for a general-purpose "dump" routi ...Show All

• Visual C++ Zoom function

  HELLO. I am using vc 8.0 and I would like to write a program using MFC, where all the child windows are opengl windows, displaying different 3D objects. Is there any (simplified) project for that in the net Thanks a lot! STICK. This project runs under VC++ 8.0 after making few corrections. Replace #include <iostream.h> with #include <iostream> using namespace std; In one place there is the following code which is not compiled: for ( int c = 0; ... ) {     ... } c = 0; Replace with: int c; for ( c = 0; ... ) {     ... } c = 0; Change OpenGL library names for linker: Opengl32.lib Glu32.lib This is all.

• SQL Server Custom Data Mining Functions

  I would like to write a custom mining function, which takes a string, queries the database, and returns an answer based upon those queries. So the basic function is then: [MiningFunction("Performs Foo")] public string Foo(string param) { // process parameters // query database // calculate answer from query results // return query results } And is executed from the client using: SELECT Foo("X Y Z") FROM FooModel This arrangement is so that resource-intensive calculations are performed server-side. My question is: what is the preferrable method for executing the database query from within the custom mining function Custom mining functions are not actually ...Show All

• SQL Server Management Studio vs. Management Studio Express Edition

  I am back doing development after a three year hiatus. Previously I was working with SQL Server 2000 and Enterprise Manager and I need to get up to speed quickly on version 2005. The computer I am using already has Management Studio Express installed but we have full licensed copies of version 2005 enterprise edition available. I have two questions: Are there features available in the full version of Management Studio that would compel me to switch from the Express Edition If so, how in the heck do I make the switch. Is it as easy as uninstalling the Express Edition and then installing the full version from the 2005 enterprise edition CD I already tried installing from the enterprise CD and got the error message cited in ot ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) MSMQ? How many clients queues can connect to one server queue at one exact moment

  Whats the limitation. Client wants to know this to know how many MSMQ servers they need in a farm for any given scenario. For the PRO SKU, it’s hardcoded to 10. For all Server SKUs, the customer has to purchase them – that’s what guides the price of the OS (how many CAL licenses are purchased with it). ...Show All

• Visual Basic Iterating through a panel's control collection

  Greetings: I've got a panel (pnlExpenses) with several labels and textboxes on it. I want the program to go through the dollar amounts entered in the textboxes and put the subtotal in a class level variable (dcSumOfExpenses). However, when the debugger passes through this Sub, objControl always shows a value of Nothing, and the Count of pnlExpenses.Controls always shows a zero. What is my code missing The panel was added to a tabpage at design time, and the labels and textboxes were laid on top of the panel. Do I need to do something more to establish the panel's controls as a collection Private Sub SumExpenses() dcSumOfExpenses = 0 Dim objControl As Control For Each objControl In pnlExpenses.Controls ...Show All

• Silverlight (formerly WPF/E) rich User experience

  I guess we are at one of those times when there really is not a clear answer to a key problem and that is the delivery of rich ui experience in a browser. By this I do not mean animations and SVG but professional looking forms(input), trees, menus and dialogs. These are the artifacts that of course WinForms have and of course one can deliver much the same experience in a Web App but the energy to deliver it is tremendous. We write a lot of Javascript and CSS and then battle with the thankless and sometimes unsolvable cross browser issues. Recently we have started using controls from Telerik and I must say they are impressive. However they are just taking away some of the pain , what we really need is to have these capabilities in WPF/E as ...Show All
