• Visual Studio Express Editions Convert extremely simple VB app to a self-contained exe?

  Is it possible for me to take a one-form, very simple application I wrote in VB and make in completely self-sufficient All the application does is have a couple buttons and a text field. The buttons simply call shell programs on the local machine. Kinda bloated to require a MASSIVE .net 2.0 install for such a simple app... Thanks.

  I want to validate the values that are shown on a grid , based on the values that are selected on a Combo.(Herein internally, the grid gets filled, when the combo box value is changed.) I would also like to know the selected row from the grid, so as to try it... or else Manual testing has always been there at our help   You can do this with a validation rule.  If the value in the combo is displayed on the same page as the grid, then you could do it with one valistion rule.  If the value of the combo is on the previous page, then you would need to use an extraction rule to pull out t ...Show All

• SQL Server PDF files with images get unexpectedly large in SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services

  When using quite small JPEGS (~ 800 KB) in a report the exported PDF is a few megabytes of size. Am I missing something (e.g. some kind of compression) Can anyone give me a hint on this one Thanks, Neno There is a known bug in 2000 (which I know wasn't fixed in the SP2 beta -- don't know about SP2 RTM, though) in the PDF renderer -- It causes images of any type to be converted to bitmaps, then rendered. I bet this is what you're running into. ...Show All

• Visual C++ function return more than one value

  Hi Guys This is just a general question. I am not sure whether this is the right place to ask(as I am new to this forums). Well my doubt is, "can a function return more than one value(other than array)" for example:  return result1,result2; if so how would the function be called (supposing "value1,value2=function_()" ) It would be great if anybody can help me with this Well, the term 'function' has a mathematical background, and it maps an input to exactly one output.  You are asking for a relation, a many-to-many-sort of concept.  Sorry, programming languages don't generally do this kind of thing unless you don't mind m ...Show All
