• Visual C++ Basic ifstream problem

  Hi, one of my C++ aplication I use an ifstream to read a file. I used to open it like this : ifstream myfile("C:\\Documents and Settings\\devj4\\Desktop\\CH_12\\ColorLinks.ini"); And read a line like this: myfile >> line; And that worked fine. But now I want to use a string variable that contains the path an file name so I have a variable like this : string Path = "C:\\Documents and Settings\\devj4\\Desktop\\CH_12\\ColorLinks.ini"; So it contains "C:\Documents and Settings\devj4\Desktop\CH_12\ColorLinks.ini" And I open my ifstream like this: ifstream myfile(Path); or like this : myfile.open(Path); Bu ...Show All

• Windows Forms DataGridView - SortCompare event not firing!

  Hi all, I have a Winforms 2.0 app in which I have a DataGridView which is populated from my own data objects (ie: from my own classes, not from a database or strongly typed dataset). The DGV is readonly so no editing or adding new rows can be done. Since some of the columns need to have a custom sort I set the SortMode property on those columns to "Programmatic" and then added the following event handler to the code: Private Sub dgvMeetings_SortCompare(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As DataGridViewSortCompareEventArgs) Handles dgvMeetings.SortCompare 'Try to sort based on the columns in the current column. ...Show All

• SQL Server setting default values

  Pardon the newbie question...but I'm trying to load a dimension table in a small data mart that has columns in it that are unique to the dimension and not sourced from any source table. Two of those columns are date columns that I want to default to the system date and the other column I want to load with a default value. I can't figure out how to do this within a data flow task. The source columns flow from the input db source into a scd transform but I can't seem to edit the columns in the target table table if they don't actually come from a data source. There doesn't seem to be a data transform object to handle this. Thanks. ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro Cancel Button Does not work--A known bug?

  I have no idea if it is a known bug. The important fact for me is that it is a bug. It occurs in _VFP.StartMode = 4 as well as in interactive session (_VFP.StartMode = 0). It caused me to lose numerous error records before I realized what was going on. In exe environment when one error follows another there is no way to quit because the Cancel button does not do what it is supposed to be doing. You crush the system and no records are saved of course. Anyway, this is a stamp of one of the session errors: An error has occured "feature is not available" (1001) ADDPROPTOFORM 2998 ....

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Select worksheet explicitly

  I currently have an excel vsto solution that has an action pane consisting of link labels. There is code behind the link label click event to select a particular range in the worksheet. When you click the link label, it selects the range on the worksheet correctly, but if I start typing immediately, I realize the focus is on the action pane, not on the excel worksheet. Is there a method in excel that will explicitly pass the focus to the worksheet range This may not be the "preferred" method, but it works.

  As I understand things, the application manifest contains 2 <installFrom> tags: * The first of these tags is required and appears in the <dependency> element. The codebase attribute points to the customization assembly. Any environment variables (i.e., %windir%, %appdata%, etc) in the path will be expand by the VSTO runtime. * The second of these tags is not required and appears before the closing <assembly> element. The codebase attribute in this tag points back to the deployment manifest file.
