• Visual C++ MSBuild running from Local System

  Hi I've been executing msbuild.exe from the NT_AUTHORITY\SYSTEM account to build VS 2005 C# projects and the builds have been working as expected.

• Visual C# Button_Click Event

  Ok. I have a button that needs different click events at certain times. I think the code for that is button1.Click = new EventArgues or something like. Can someone please explain to me how to do that Hi, Instead of creating new Click events, why not just make a simple logic (if and then's) on your click event It would be much more simplier. But if you really want to do this, take a look on your designer code. In your Solution Explorer click the '+' sign. It would show two files. Open <formname>.Designer.cs. This shows on how the wizard creates the controls on your forms and how they attach an Event to a control... cheers, P ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Controlling D-Pad in the Today Screen (C#)

  hello, i'm very new to c++, but i'm getting there. i just need keywords as to where or for what i should be looking to make a program that would produce a mouseclick when the left button of the d-pad is clicked when i'm in the today screen. my device doesn't utilize the d-pad's right and left buttons when i'm in the today screen, so i thought that i could assign the left d-pad button to a mouseclick that would click on the start button. i'm using Visual Studio 2005 with Windows Mobile 5.0 SDK. thanks, msafi,  There's no need to refer to people as idiots; I'm sure that you make mistakes as well.

• Visual Studio Team System Connecting to a datasource that is a very, very large database with many tables

  In our setup we would like to connect to an IBM DB2 datasource. We do have an OleDB for DB2 installed and we can connect just fine. But then the datasource connection tool goes after the DB2 datadictionary to show all the tables and it dies after having been busy with this for a really long time. The problem is that our data dictionary contains all the tables in all the databases and we have easily several thousand tables per database. So this is not working. I know my database name and I know my database table, but I have no way of setting this up through the "Add Data Source" facility. Is there another way I can do this ...Show All

• .NET Development Adding CDOSys.dll reference to project does not generate Interop.ADODB.dll???

  Hello All I have written an application to send emails. For this, I am using "Microsoft CDO for Windows 2000 Library" which points to CDOsys.dll COM file. When I add a reference to this file in my project, it creates Interop.ADODB.dll and Interop.CDO.dll, however, when one of my colleagues tries to do the same thing, it generates ADODB.dll and Interop.CDO.dll We are both using Microsoft Windows VS.Net 2003 and are having same version of CDOSys.dll (6.1.3940.33). When I right click on the actual Interop.ADODB.dll file and go to version it shows me 2.7.0.0 however, from .Net when I right click on the reference and go to properties, it sho ...Show All

• Smart Device Development making a web service call

  folks, i'm attempting to make a web service call in evc++ application for PPC. actually, i am back-porting the code from VS2005 and finding that "atlsoap.h" does not exist under evc++ 4. is there an equivalent or work-around I doubt there is an equivalent, but for a workaround, if your web service allows POST requests, I would suggest using XMLHTTP object. It provides a (more) convenient way of sending requests and receiving XML-formatted responses. Techinically, you could even build SOAP requests and receive SOAP responses this way, but of course it's more work ...Show All
