• bmuraliusa HelpPlugin table in merge module for VS2005 doc

  Hi, I have been trying to add my documentation to the Visual Studio 2005 beta 2 and VSIP SDK. I want to do this through the merge module MSHelp2_RegTables__RTL_---_---.msm and HTML_Help_Registration__RTL_---_---.msm.

So what specifically should be entered in ...Show All

• Cleber Dantas Where's the MSBuild Project Type?

  There's a Makefile project in the VC project system which is handy for integrating old (non-VC) stuff into Visual Studio.  I would like to the MSBuild equivalent.  That way, I could move the old stuff over the MSBuild files.  I would then expect the integration with VS to be at least as good as it is with makefiles (if not somewhat better - files in item groups would just show up in the project). ...Show All

• Pranav ObjectDataProvider

  Hello all, I have a custom collection that inherits from ObservableCollection -- the collection constructor pulls data from a sql database and fills itself from the query. From what I've gleaned from MSDN and other documentation sources, if your collection constructor is set up to fill itself with data, and you declare an ObjectDataProvider in your window xaml file, the collection object will get instantiated and proceed to populate itself with ...Show All

• feilng EnvDTE80.TextDocumentKeyPressEvents.BeforeKeyPress functionality

  This is my first VS Addin, and I need to trap on keystrokes so I was happy to see TextDocumentKeyPressEvents.BeforeKeyPress in DTE80.  The problem is that I need to trap on keystrokes that are not necessarily alphanumeric, which according to my testing within the debugger and the fact that it passes in a string confirms this. So my question is there an event that will handle ALL keystrokes, and not just alphanumerics   Thanks P.S.&nbs ...Show All

• JRClark How to determine which part of a FlowDocument is visible in a FlowDocumentReader?

  I can't find any way to determine which part of a FlowDocument is currently visible in a FlowDocumentReader. Any ideas Thanks, I'll try that out. I've found a workaround for the FlowDocumentReader, by walking the visual tree upwards from an element that is on the current page until an instance of type MS.Internal.PtsHost.PageVisual is reached, and then iterating over all visual child nodes to determine all the other elements on ...Show All

• trehberg ToolboxItem attribute not honored by AutoToolboxService in VS 2005

  The service that automatically creates toolbox items is not using the correct class: it ignores the ToolboxItemAttribute on the component that specifies which ToolboxItem-derived class to use, and instead creates a ToolboxManagerToolboxItem. The result is a bunch of unusable Toolbox items. We have already logic to populate the toolbox with a correct ToolboxItem whenever the designed class is opened in our graphical root designer. So we h ...Show All

• SimDim Error: "data\rights.dat is already open"

  Hi, I've just installed Visual SourceSafe 2005 on a Windows XP Professional SP2 machine. I'm not sure right off the bat if that's the problem because scouring the web, I've not found any location that lists the system requirements for this software. In fact I can't even find the official Microsoft Page for this program!
