• Windows Forms Drag Drop Selected Text

  Ok I have an issue, it seems that it's not easy. Ok I know how to drag and drop text, that's fine. Though I have a problem with being able to select the text and then dragging it. If I select it and try to drag it will unselect. I've done up a work around where I store the selected text on mouse up and then when I drag I&n ...Show All

• Visual C# Interop, COM and Office Automation Question

  - Background: I write a lot of software/scripts that automate repeated tasks around our office. My speciality is integrating applications that interface with SolidWorks, AutoCAD and various databases. When I want to integrate with AutoCAD, I have to add a reference thru the Add Reference Dialog. I select COM then select AutoCAD 2000 Type Library. I go thru a simular step when I need to automate SolidWorks. After I have completed and tested my application on my own computer I want to create an install package for distribution. The computers that I am using this on already have SolidWorks and AutoCAD installed. Do I need to include the r ...Show All

• Visual Basic MsgBox does not show text, OK button does not display letters "O" and "K"

  Studying Visual Basic step for step I entered a very simple program that has to display three MsgBox objects in succession. The program code works, the boxes are displayed, they even have the appropriate width for the text they contain, but the text is not shown. More, the OK-button which comes standard with the MsgBox works, but does not show the characters "O" and "K". Running Visual Studio.Net 2003 under Windows XP All security updates installed.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Pixel width "Thickness" for shapes

  Is it possible to draw shapes with a single pixel width I am working on an engineering program in WPF and need to scale drawings. The current thickness of 1 is more than one pixel (presumably anti-aliased) and is very "fuzzy" - that's an engineering term! The same drawing drawn with GDI looks much crisper - another engineering term. Ideally there would be a special thickness, say 0, which would always draw at one pixel width no matter what scale transform was applied. excerpt: As I was saying earlier, to accommodate the high-resolution displays, we need to get developers to stop specifyin ...Show All

• SQL Server Setting permissions programmatically

  All, I'm wondering if there are any methods to set the permissions for a specific user on a specific report within SQL Server Reporting Services.

• .NET Development Create virtual com port in C#?

  I'm working on a project where I am reading from a com port to receive data from a GPS receiver. I can do this without any problems except for one. There is also another application that wants to read from the com port at the same time. I know there are com port splitters that I could use but I'd rather not have to use any 3rd party software. Is anyone aware of any way of emulating a com port so that I can point the other application to this port and have it read the data that I am spitting it Thanks, Brady I don’t believe that this is possible to emulate a com port through the SerialPort class.

• SQL Server External columns from Sybase stored procedures

  I need to execute several stored procedures on a Sybase server and copy the results to SQL Server 2005 tables. While using an ad-hoc sql statement the "Available External Columns" list is correct, however when using a stored procedure the list is empty. I've tried to work around this a couple of ways without success. 1) DelayedValidation. I ran the sql from the stored procedure body in the OLE DB Source to set the column list, then turned on DelayValidation for the Data Flow component. When I switch to using a stored procedure it still connects to the Sybase database and removes the column list. Still does this even after turning on DelayedV ...Show All

• .NET Development How can I sort selected elements into a nodelist?

  I have a XML document already loaded in memory.  I would like to select certain elements from the document, sort them, and end up with them in a nodelist.  Is that possible   And if so, can someone point to some documentation/examples on how to do it My initial thought was to use the following XSLT on the XmlDocument:     <xsl:apply-templates select="//section[@key='books']/book">         <xsl:sort select="@isbn" />     </xsl:apply-templates> First problem is that the XSLT was being created dynamically, not read from a file.  Yet, I don't ...Show All
