• Visual Studio Team System deleting a team build

  hello, Is there also a way to delete a team build (not a build type!) I always read about "deleting a team build type" but never about a team build.

  I've just noticed that the progress bar that comes with .NET doesn't have any colour properties. Either allow the progress bar to have some colour properties, or at least allow it to cascade/get the colour from the form. You can always create your own coloured progress bar using a few labels and some fancy footwork with borders and colours.&nbs ...Show All

• .NET Development sqlexception on null insert, but db has default value set on columns

  this should be dead easy but has got me pulling my hair out. i've dragged and dropped a table from my dataset onto my form to create a total RAD details view data entry form. so far so simple. the sql server table on the db isnt allowing nulls, but i've set defaults for all the columns, yet when i try and save a new row from my form im getting a sqlexception terminating the insert due to nulls not being allowed. why arent the defaults being used. if i run a simple insert in QA supplying values for only a couple of columns the insert works as expected with the remaining columns using the default values set for the column. i've even t ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Extract files from CAB

  Hello, I've a PocketPC applications build with VisualStudio 2003 and a PocketPC CAB. I need to extract one file from the CAB by C# code without extract all files. Is there a way to do this thanks for any suggestions... Andrea C. There's no API for that and WCELOAD expands all files. However, you can find CAB format description and implement extraction from the scratch. For example, WinZip knows how to extract files from CABs, you can do the same. ...Show All

• .NET Development .NET Framework and Windows User Profiles

  Problem: We developed a VB.NET application using Visual Studios 2005 and are using table adapters (via the wizard) to bind the data to the forms. The program is using a hidden textbox field on the form as the key (a SQL identity field) to run stored procedures on an SQL 2000 server. With the issue we are having, the application opens the main form and can access data from the SQL server just fine. However, when trying to run the stored procedure that uses the hidden textbox field, an error occures saying that the hidden field value of "" cannot be converted to a integer. Note: The txthiddentextbox.text is being converted to an i ...Show All

• Visual Basic How do I map a network drive in VB 2005?????

  Hello, I am making a small app and want to be able to perform some actions on a network drive based upon questions. I would like to be able to copy some files and folders, change the NTFS perms on them, and then open a specific text file, make some changes and save it. All of these things have NTFS permissions set for Administrator only. Since the application is to be ran by Non-Administrators I need to run the code with higher perms. I saw the impersonate command but the examples that I found were for asp.net and I didn't fully understand it. Below is a snippet of what I'm trying to run. Public Sub GetInc() Select C ...Show All

  To write and read a hundred sets of 1000 numbers, which way is the fastest way: - Binary file - XML file - Text file - ArrayList (run out of memory ) - Database Table Thanks Sorry for the uncleared question. Suppose I'm trying to get an optimal set of solution by doing the iteration for 100 times, so I have 100 sets of data. I'd like to be able to keep all data and then sort a number of each set to find which set is the best one. I don't need to show all of data, but just the best set of data, to the user. I'm not sure which way I should store all the data because obviously I'm dealing with a lot of DOU ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Correlation with nested custom activities

  (beta 2.2) I want to make a custom activity (1) that contains another custom activity (2). The innermost custom activity contains a CallExternalMethod activity that builds a message (in the MethodInvoking event), and sends this to an external application. On the ExternalDataExchange interface a "CorrelationParameter" is defined. My outermost custom activity (1) contains as its first step my custom activity (2), because the building and sending of the messages is something I'd like to share in multiple other custom activities.

  I have a report that displays an image in a table column that allows the user to drilldown into a detail report. The image has a tooltip associated with it. When I view the report in Report Manager it displays the tooltip. When I display the report in a ReportViewer control (in remote mode pointing at the same report) the tooltip does not display. Is this expected behaviour Report Manager is using the ReportViewer control, so there should be no difference. Can you post a simple repro rdl ...Show All
