• Visual C++ Is it possible to put a mixed assembly in GAC?

  I have a CLR class library project which links to a .lib file to use the classes and methods of an old library (MFC 6.0 DLL). When I put the .NET assembly in the GAC and run my application I got a System.IO.FileNotFoundException . It seems that when the .net assembly is loaded from GAC it can not load the old DLL anymore. What should I do (I need the .net assembly as a global assembly.)

• .NET Development Best DB for future ?

  Just a quick question... (I'm a newbie to all of this) Right now if you create an application with SQL express, a user has to install SQL to use the app. But I was wondering, with Vista coming up is SQL going to be installed by default, or will a user still have to install it Being new to it all, I just figured I would concentrate on learning what will be most used in the future. If the mdb's are going away, I won't spend my time on them. Thanks... Hi, I do not think that sql dbs will be installed with vista by default. You can deploy them with your application setup. Wether to use access or sql I canno ...Show All

• SQL Server No grouping?

  Hi to all! To count(something), it is usually required to use a group by function, however, that is not applicable in this case: I would like to select records that have similar values for 'col2' and 'col3', given a certain 'col1', and how many records each 'col1' returns. The following example hopefully makes it clear. The table: Col1 Col2 Col3 ------------------------ s1 A B s1 C D s2 A B s2 C D The result should be: col1 col2 col3 Expr --------------------------------- s2 A B 2 s2 C D 2 I had figured out the not-working-query: SELECT *, count(col1) FROM table as t1 INNER JOIN table as t2 ...Show All

• SQL Server How do I update multiple base table view?

  I got a view from multiple tables. All tables have a primary key column which are linked in a diagram as relationship. So I have no problem to update this view from a direct editing environment such as 'Enterprise Manager' or 'MS Access'.  I wrote a stored procedure for UPDATE to use it from a client application (Visual Basic .NET) but when I executed this stored procedure from Query Analyzer I get error message :   "View or function 'PartsFab' is not updatable because the modification affects multiple base tables" But what I tried was changing just one column and actually it does not affect mutiple tables.

• Visual Basic VS2005 - Localization problems

  Hi, It seems impossible to localize forms in VS2005 (as well as in VB2005 express). What I did : - Set the localizable property of the form to true - Select a language for the form (english, for example) - Enter the appropriate controls texts in english - Select another language for the form (french, for example) - Enter the appropriate controls texts in french - etc. When I switch back to english, half of the text has disappeared ! Is it a known problem in these beat version For test purposes, I tried to do the same things in Visual Studio 2003 and it works perfectly. Thanks for your help. Patrick ...Show All

• Visual C# Auto Generated Settings Class

  Hi there, I was looking for some help/advice regarding the auto generated class that wraps an assemblies settings. We are currently building an application using VS 2005 but are using MSBee to build a 1.1 version assembly. We have hit a problem in that any Web References added through the IDE have cause this Settings class to be generated. As this class is a partial class this cannot be compiled sucessfully under framework 1.1 Is there any way to avoid the use of this code and still add the Web References via the IDE or will we have to go down some other more manual route to add our web references Thanks Andy ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions I really need a piece of advice...

  Hello again. I am really wavering. I am a developer, windows applications, not web. Until now I used VB6 to build client side user friendly applications. Server side usually are DCOM VC++6 applications (we develop laboratories and quality systems for manufacture). Now I have to develop a new client application, and I would like to try VB2005: I downloaded the express edition to evaluate it. Of coarse I have a lot of code, and tested user interface modules developed in VB6: MDI & treeview interface, graphs and statistics with National Instruments components, reports with excel library, etc. I tried the wizard to convert it to VB2005, but ...Show All

• Visual Basic Sharing classes between solution projects

  I have created a VB.NET project (Project1) in a solution and I would like to share some of its classes with a new project (Project2) I am adding to that solution. If I right click on the target project, Project2, and add existing items, and then use 'link file', I am able to add a link to the desired class files residing in Project1. However when building the solution I find that I get errors because Project1 refers to the classes with "Imports Project1.MyClass", and Project2 when reading the linked file does not understand what Project1 is. I want to keep the code for each project encapsulated in one exe ...Show All

• .NET Development Terminating Processes from a Windows Service Cleanly (c#).

  Hi, Recently, I have created a Windows Service in C#; that calls a process (writen previously in c). It starts fine, however im unable to terminate the process cleanly, when the Onstop() is called.   Process.Kill() works, but prevents my process from shutting down cleanly (loses data - that I need). Ideally I need to use the CloseMainWindow() method... but this does not seem to work within a service (as a service does not run an interactive GUI... and does not take advantage of the WM_CLOSE message)... Is there a way to send the process a signal; to enable a clean termination Any ideas Best Regards Rober ...Show All
