• Windows Forms How to resize controls on my windows form with changing form size

  Hi, In my windows form I have a tab control with a few tab pages. Each tab page has some user controls and some .net controls such as datagrid, labels e.t.c When I resize the windows forms the controls dont change their size and position. So if I reduce the size of window it hides half of the controls on my application. How do I make my application or controls such that they relocate and resize themselves when size of the window changes. Thanks, You have to DOCK them on your form to top, bottom, or center depending on ur requirement. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Is it possible to shell an application seamlessly?

  I need to be able to run an application such as notepad or calc in the same way that I can start a browser inside my VB app ie. make the spawned program appear to be just another window in my program. Has anyone done this before   This isn't what's happening. The Webrowser control has been supplied as a wrapper for the Active-X webbrowser and you are using that. There are no such analogs for the utilties you mentioned.     ...Show All

• Visual C++ How can I test if a gcroot<String^> has a String assigned to?

  There must be a way to test if my "gcroot<String^> m_aString" has been a real String assigned to (by executing "m_aString = gcnew String(L"")"), but I cannot find it. The compiler accepts my setting the variable to nilptr (m_aString=nilptr) but wouldn't allow asking "m_aString == nilptr". I tried countless other ways, but to no avail. Can anybody tell me how to do it -- Manfred Thanks, this works fine. But it's not quite clear to me that "!string" is equivalent to "nullptr == static_cast<String^>(string)", can you give me a hint that might enlighten me in this -- Manfred ...Show All

• Smart Device Development ngen on CF

• Visual Studio Team System Type definitions overwritten every night

  A small problem has come to light. I successfully exported and modified the Task.xml and Bug.xml type definitions. I then imported the changed template successfully. Subsequent changes to the templates were made and imported via witimport.exe. Any changes I made were reflected in any new bug or task added to the test project. We already had an existing project up and running, setup with the original basic MSFAgile template. When it came to use the new templates everything went well. Import was successful, no errors, and test work items could be created and pushed through the new process. However (there's always at least one "however") a p ...Show All

• .NET Development Setting Select Command Parameter Values at Design Time

  I am using VS 2005 and have created a new data source from a SQL Server 2005 stored procedure using the TableAdapter Configuration Wizard. The stored procedure has two parameters and I want to set a default value for these at design time. However, when I display the Parameters Collection Editor there is no Value property for me to set. Is there some way to provide a value for these parameters at design time so that I can preview data without having to enter values each time P.S. If you're wondering why I need to do this at design time, it's because I'm using a report designer from DevExpress that has a preview tab to display a print pr ...Show All
