• Visual Basic Tabbed Browsing in VB .Net

  Hi, I have a question regarding tabbed browsing. I am writing my own custom web browser in vb .net studio 2005. I can create, dynamically at runtime, additonal tabs on a tab control, which will - in each - have a dedicated webbrowser control. So what will happen is 5 search engines will be searched and the results be placed in seperate webbrowsers under 5 dynamically-created tabs. The user can then tab throw each set of results. The problem is, I cannot crack for the life of me the creation of the dynamic webbrowser controls in line with creating the tabs. I will need to send a URL to each webbrowser too, to show the resulting searc ...Show All

• Visual Studio VS 2005/VSS 2005 - Error while checking (HTTP)

  I read thru this forum and finally had the Internet access setup. The server is not in the same LAN as the client computer.

• Windows Forms .msi file created under Visual Studio 2003 does not run under .NET 2.0

  My applicaton and its installation package was created under Visual Studio 2003 for .NET 1.1. Unfortunately, my customer upgraded all their w/s to .NET 2.0. Now, each time the .msi file runs, this is the error message I see: "This setup requires the .NET Framework version 1.1.4322. Please install the .NET Framework and run this setup again. ...." I've tried to edited the setup.ini file to set SupportedRuntimes and the Property VSDSuppported Runtimes (using orca) in the msi file to 2.0.50727. Well, no luck. My understanding from what I read is that appl that runs under 1.1 should have no problem to run under 2.0. Where do I go wro ...Show All

• Visual Basic Object Test Bench

  in VS2005 Standard, when I right click a class in class view, select create instance, and say OK, I get "create instance failed", with details = 0x80004005. I've tried this with several different classes...which have warnings but no compile errors, and which I don't think are "generic" (because I don't know what that is and didn't try to make them that.) Any suggestions Thanks! The Object Test Bench is available in Standard (I have standard, and I have Object Test Bench). The only thing mentioned as being only available to Professional and Enterprise is the Class Designer. I had ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Customization of test conditions?

  Hello everybody, IMHO list of test conditions for a Database Unit Test is too restricted, and of course I'd like to customize both list itself, and parameters in existing conditions. Is there any way to do it Sorry, you cannot add test conditions to the drop-down list. However, you can add custom verification code to the C# or VB files behind the designer. Below is an example where I compare the first value in the first table of the first result set to an expected value of "expected" (not very realistic but I hope it helps). :) Thanks! -Jon // Execute the test script // if ((testData.Tes ...Show All

• Windows Forms Design-Time binding custom control to GridView

  I have a custom control in .NET 2.0 that is wrapping a strongly typed dataset. In .NET 1.1 I was able to implement ICollection and expose the DataSet, such that people could bind to the control as if it was a DataSet itself. I was able to bind it to a DataGrid and the columns would show up in design time. However, this functionality isn't working for the new GridView control in .NET 2.0. I would like it to show bindable columns in design time, just as the SqlDataSource does to the GridView control. I've been trying to reverse-engineer SqlDataSource to figure out how it is done, but have not had any luck just yet. Is anyone here awar ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Feature request: Class name filters

  It would be very useful if we could create regexp-based filters that would tell whether a particular class should be analyzed. Here's an example: I don't want FxCop to analyze third-party code that is a part of my assembly (PowerCollections), nor do I want to analyze auto-generated xml serializers code that also resides in that assembly. If only I could set up couple of filters like "skip classes whose full name starts with "Wintellect.PowerCollection" and "skip classes whose full name ends with "Serializer"...
