• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Knowntypes from configuration

  Hi I have been trying to setup known types using the app.config file. According to the intellisense I'm not suppose to use the 'declaredtype' element, which is contrary to the winfx help.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Anybody managed to find a workaround for the "Black Window" bug in the Nov CTP?

  I think I'll create this post as a checkpoint where people can post any info on this bug. For a background, some of us using the November CTP for WPF and either Visual Studio 2005 or C# Express, are experiencing a black window when running the simplest of WPF apps (i.e an app that does nothing but window.Show()). Other people experience it intermitently in XamlPad itself. A few links to the problem... [1] [2] Apparently the January 2006 CTP contains the same bits for WPF (Avalon) as the December 2006 CTP, so the same bug will be present. The Microsoft product feedback centre states that the fix will be ...Show All

• SQL Server Multi-line annotation?

  Is it not possible to have a multi-line annotation OR my ENTER key is stuck ;-) thanks, Nitesh Personally, I wonder why the annotation object doesn't have word-wrapping enabled, like the tesxt in visio. That would certainly (imho) be the simplest answer. I do wish enter worked as well (again, a la visio), but at least now I can takes those 8 annotations I had, and re-merge them into 1, having found this answer. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Passing Parameters to subreport in ASP.Net

  My main report has a detail section that contains a subreport.  We are wanting to see all parts for a given customer with a good bit of detail for each part (hence the subreport instead of a list).  I need to find a way to pass the part number from a dataset in the main report as a parameter to the subreport.  I am using ObjectDataSources, because I am having to get my data from an Informix database using stored procedures (Informix stored procs do not return column names and this blows RS's mind).  Are there any examples of what I am trying to accomplish   Below is the code from my SubReportProcessing Event.  A ...Show All

• Visual C# Hey I have a totally embarrasing, probably really simple question...

  Why the hell would the next line not work in c# but the next line work ! ! ! I went to show someone this really simple C to F and vice versa convertor and it only printed out 0 I was totally embarassed sry but I picked c# cause i thought the example would be easy to understand for them but I guess I should've went with c++ cause that's what i use, and know that would've worked in c++ result = (((9/5)*number) + 32); result = ((1.8*number) + 32); TOMDX wrote: Why the hell would the next line not work in c# but the next line work ! ! !

• Visual C++ Merge IDEs

  I find the MSVC .NET GUI just awfull... (no offence :P). Is it possible to use the .NET linker and compiler with MSVC 6 Thanks. Speaking of moving folders.  Moving/reordering folders at least manually in the project (text) file worked well before 2005 and is broken in 2005 (now all folders are sorted alphabetically no matter what you do - maybe the C# team pressured them for this, but we C++ guys get this now too and any resolution has been delayed until Orcas) This has been mentioned in a bug at the product feedback center - you can vote on it here: http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com ...Show All
