• Visual Studio Formating Questions

  1) When I format my date fields, its always MM/DD/YYYY format. How do I change it to DD/MM/YYYY 2) I have a group header row, which has a blue background. txtGroupSales is one of the text boxes in the row. I've set txtGroupSales to toggle invisible when txtGroupName is clicked. Unfortunately, this also hides the blue background for the text box. So I have a white gap in the blue bar. Any ways around this 3) Is it possible to save that the report should always be printed in Landscape Thanks Vayse Hi, Vayse, for 3), set the PageSize property on design mode ( e.g. 11in, 8.5in ), that should give you a ...Show All

• Visual C# How do I move my records in one dataset into SQL database with field matching?

  I am working on a attendance application( base on SQL Express) for school, I figure out the way import the CSV files(Attendance Record) into a dataset but I cannt find any information regarding how to transfer the record into SQL Express Thanks Hi, Try using the sqlDataAdapter object. You need to set its select, insert, update, delete command. After doing that you can try doing something like: System.Data.SqlClient. SqlDataAdapter adapter = new System.Data.SqlClient. SqlDataAdapter (); //Set the commands.. adapter.Update(dataSet); The adapter will check the status of each row in the dataSet and will invoke the apropreat ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Rendering in pixel space

  There are certain types of visuals that must be rendered in pixel space such as a fractal or an audio waveform. These things can't be composed of the geometric primitives currently available in WPF. How would I go about making a custom control/visual that renders itself on the pixel level You need to use a bitmap to get control over pixels. You can then add the bitmap to a Visual tree, keeping in mind that the Visual tree may stretch the bitmap according to the screen's DPI settings, any transforms in the tree, and so on. You can use the RenderTargetBitmap class to rasterize Visuals to a bitmap, but if you ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Bound emulator like Palm ?

  I was wondering if I could create a bound emulator like I can with the Palm emulator so I can send it out with our salesmen and trainers.

• Visual C++ how to get errors for nonstandard ISO c++?

  As I understand it, "for each" (as opposed to for_each() from STL) is not allowed in standard ISO C++, it's part of the new C++/CLI standard instead. So if I take the program below, it doesn't compile in Cormeau's compiler. However, it compiles in VC2005 even if I use /Za and do not use /clr. My question is, how can I prevent the compiler allowing new constructs like this My friend's compiler doesn't compile them!

• Visual Studio Express Editions Newbie General Questions & Error on Non-Dev Machines

  Hello, I've just started programming C++ as of today, so yes I am a newbie, but I do have some experience in Java and GML so hopefully it will come in handy. First off I'd like to know if there is some kind of function list for standard C++ Libraries.. For Java and GML their is an obvious list of all the functions and parameters easily available to all programmers. From what I can see, even MSDN doesn't offer something like this. Secondly whenever I use, lets say, #include <windows.h> I get an error similar to: Error 1 fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'windows.h': No such file or directory c:\documents and settings\ ...Show All
