• Windows Forms Refreshing a combo box value...

• SQL Server Handling a double or float value for inserting into DataTime field.

  Hi, I was trying to enter the non-normalised exponential format of double or float value into the DataTime field in my data base. It is allowing to store any kind of data passed to this field. If the same non-normalised exponential value for eg: 4.235E-329 is passed to float or double field we are getting a TDS error but when same thing is used to store in DateTime field it is simply inserting the value. Now my concern is that SQL Server 2005 should give me such kind of exception when I am trying to insert in-valid double or float value to DateTime field. Is this a bug in SQL Server 2005 Please kindly help me how to implement this one. Than ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. in managed directx, Materials are black if I create more than one mesh

  I'm using the cool example from the managed directx wiki. http://pluralsight.com/wiki/default.aspx/Craig.DirectX/MeshBasicsTutorial.html I created an object that took the mesh name and the device as arguments and have their own render methods. It works perfectly if I only make and render one Mesh but if I render two the materials seem to disapear, every surface of the mesh is totally black except for where there are textures, those parts render fine. What gives Here's the bit of the constructor which has to do with the mesh: ExtendedMaterial[] exMaterials; mesh = Mesh.FromFile(Path.Combine(artPath, name), MeshFlags.SystemMemory, device, out ...Show All

• Windows Forms problem restoring focus to main window

  hi, i have a panel with 2 radiobuttons, besides the radiobuttons i'm controlling the keyboard input for the arrows to change other parameters in the panel such as a counter, the problem is that if i click the radiobuttons and then hit an arrow i cannot control my counter anymore but i switch between the radiobuttons, i've thought of simply calling this.Focus(); on the CheckedChanged Event of the RadioButtons but that doesn't seem to restore the focus on the main form, also, tryed calling Invoke with a delegate wich is bound to a method that calls invoke, as well as doing this last approach on the gotfocus event of the radiobuttons., wich ult ...Show All

• Windows Forms unhandled Exception thrown when user enters value in a new row in datagridView

  I have a datagridView in my screen which is bounded to a dataSource which has been generated through DataSource Wizard.DataError event is added for handling invalid data. Consider, if user enters invalid data in very first row of datagridview and tabs out from the invalid data column, then dataerror message is displayed. Now if user hits Esc key to clear invalid contents, system throws an exception which is what we cannot figure out.   This is particular only if datagridview is empty when form loads else if there is any saved row(s)..no issues as such.

• Windows Forms DataGrid

  There is a windows DataGrid on a form which is populated with a DataSet. When a row is selected, it can then be deleted by hitting the delete key on the keyboard. I would like to be able to give a confirmation messagebox (i.e. Are you sure to delete...Yes/No) in that event before the actual Delete takes place. Then I would like to be able to do the same thing using a Delete button on the form. Thanks I believe the only way to do this is by creating a separate class which inherits from the DataGrid. And then use that class to draw the grid on the form. But the main issue is that the delete key stroke is not ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System TFSDeleteProject Doesn't Remove Project From Source Control

  I ran the TFSDeleteProject. This appears to finish succesfully. The only thing that isn't deleted is the Project in Source Control. I selected the 'show deleted items' in my VS2005 and can see the deleted files under the Source Control project. Is there a way to totally remove the project from Source Control We want to re-create the Team Project with the same name we used before, but it can't because of the existing Project in Source Control. I see many entries in the Forum that had this same problem, but they were using the beta version. We are using the TFS released version, not the Beta. Is there a way to do this yet In vers ...Show All
