• Visual Basic Disappearing Data Sources

  I just installed the VS2005 RC and now my Data Sources window loses its contents whenever I open a form or user control.  I have 2 data sources defined, and they show up fine if I don't have a form as the active window in the IDE.  As soon as I click on a form or usercontrol window, the data sources disappear and the data sources toolbar becomes grayed out.  It's slightly different than when there are no data sources in the project, because I don't get the hyperlink "click here to add a data source". I followed all instructions for loading the RC, including uninstalling all programs in the correct order. Any ideas would b ...Show All

• Windows Forms TextChanged event for DataGridViewTextBoxColumn?

  I have a DataGridView with four textbox columns. When the user is entering data in one of the columns, I want to handle the TextChanged event. The CellValueChanged event of the grid only occurs when the user has finished typing and leaves the cell, but I need to capture every keystroke. How would I do that Hi Daniel, Great work! I also had the similar query where I needed to trap DataGridTextBoxColumn's keypress event to allow only numeric values. You have solved the mystery    ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Team Foundation - what data "lives" on the App Tier machine?

  The subject says it all - Exactly what data (if any) lives on the App Tier machine Obviously source control and work items live on the data tier.  Formerly, the database used by Sharepoint lived on the app tier, but with Beta 3 that's been remedied. Does any data live on the app tier, or is it now strictly a functional layer with no persistent storage The reason I'm asking is for recoverability - if the App Tier machine goes down, can I just point another App Tier at the data tier and have everything work, or will I have lost something important In V1 there can only be 1 active AT talking to a DT. As others have mentioned there ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Work Item tracking through web parts?

  Hi, Is it possible to perform work item tracking through web parts in project website Could we use Microsoft share point service to make it possible to add requirements/bug through web client (w/o installing VS 2005 in client machine) Thanks, Saurabh The link I provided above was a 3rd party tool that provides a web interface for workitem tracking. Its not a web part to include in the sharepoint portal, but to be honest a web part probably would not provide enough screen size to begin with. The tool is a website that you can install on the team foundation server. Its currently in Beta, but I would g ...Show All

• Visual Basic RichTextBox Caret

  How would I go about changing the actual shape of the RichTextBox caret I have tried using the CreateCaret and ShowCaret API calls, but they only seem to work with normal text boxes. Is there any way to modify them so they work with RichTextBoxes I got the caret to change by calling CreateCaret/ShowCaret but it immediately returns to a regular caret once you click or type in the control. Looks to me like the RichTextBox control recreates the caret itself. Try handling all keyboard and mouse events and recreate the caret Declare Function CreateCaret Lib "user32.dll" (ByVal hwnd As I ...Show All

• SQL Server Can't update table using mysql

  Hello. I use VS2005 and I was trying to make a little program able to connect to a MySQL 5.0.18 database through MyODBC 3.51.12. I can connect to the database and I can load a table in the Datagridview control, but I can't update the table: the wizard didn't generate the Update method. Even if I configure again the tableAdapter, the wizard generates only: SELECT statement table mappings Fill method Get method The table is a very simple table: it has 3 columns and the first is a primary key. If I create an identical table using Access database and make a program that connects through ODBC, I don't have the problem: the wizard generates also ...Show All

• Visual Studio Debugger temporarily hangs before not loading the PDB for CppCodeProvider.dll

  I'm running XP Professional and VS 2005 Professional and I have a two project solution (one web project, one class library). When I hit F5 to start debugging, the IDE will intermittently "hang" with the following message in the status bar: "Loading symbols for c:\windows\assembly\......\CppCodeProvider.dll". After about 30 seconds the IDE responds and the debug session starts. Watching the Modules window (Ctrl-D, Ctrl-M) shows me that the IDE is trying to load symbols for CppCodeProvider.dll and reports "No symbols loaded" in the Symbol Status column. When the debug session finally starts the Symbol ...Show All

• Visual C++ import 3rd-party DLL

  I know that there are many threads about DLLs already, but they all cover the case that you want to import a dll you created yourself first. I'm trying to get the sqlite3.dll working with my programm.
