• Software Development for Windows Vista Media Center

  I installed and validated Windows Vista 5270 today (Jan 2, 2006). When I tried to load Media Center I got the message "This trial version has expired and can no longer be used." If I reset the computer date to Dec 31, 2005 or earlier, Media Center loads OK. Seems like the expiry date for Media Center in CTP build 5270 has been set to 1/1/2006. Are there any other programs in 5270 that share this problem, and will we be getting updated versions with a more realistic expiry date Mike et all,   I too have the same issues, it appears the code for MCE is not activated   Anyone know how to activate this James ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro Enhancement Request: Ability to pass cursors as parameters

  The ability to pass a cursor to a method of an object belonging to another data session would be a great addition for a future versions of VFP. Today, we have to resort to arrays, which is kind of a kludge, or CursorToXML/XMLToCursor, which is way too slow for large data sets. If cursor could be passed between data sessions, n-tier apps would benefit greatly. Any thoughts Eyvind.   Craig Berntson wrote: It's actually very easy. Look at CURSORTOXML() and XMLTOCURSOR(). I have just done a quick test with that and it works very nicely. The OP stated it is slow with large data sets but I have nev ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Context-sensitive Actions pane: Odd update behavior

  I have an Excel workbook that contains two named Ranges: OrderDate and ShipDate. When I select either of these cells, I want the Actions pane to display a user control that contains a label and a DateTimePicker control. I want the user control to show up in the Actions pane only when one of these cells is selected, so I have code on the ranges' Selected and Deselected event handlers to add or remove the control (see code below--SetDate is the name of the user control). The solution works fine when I put my cursor on OrderDate and then move to ShipDate. It also works fine when I move from any other cell to either OrderDate or ShipDate. The so ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Anyone Have Success Installing Visual Studio 2005 Beta 2 Team Foundation Server?

  I've read through many of the postings here, but haven't seen a single posting from someone who has successfully installed this thing.  Regular pre-req thing, Windows 2003 Server SP1 32-bit, using VMware with 1Gig RAM assigned to this VM, attempting single-tier install.  Everything is done as specified in the instructions and everything works (and verified) until the last step -- the TFS itself. Same problems as others, at the very end (according to the progress bar), it fails on two different places (sometimes I can overcome the first): Error 32000: ServiceDefinition.aspx I thought I remedied this by allowing Active Server Pages i ...Show All

• Visual C# ListView with CheckBoxes checks unwanted checkboxes

  I'm using C# 2.0, and have a problem with a listview. I've turned on CheckBoxes and have my View set to List. The problem that I'm seeing is that the spacebar always checks an item, even if it's part of another items name. For example, if you create a new form, and drop a ListView called listview1 onto it, then put this code into the form Load event: private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { listView1.CheckBoxes = true; listView1.View = View.List; listView1.Items.Add("Apple"); listView1.Items.Add("Banana"); listView1.Items.Add("Bananas"); listView1.Items.Ad ...Show All

• Visual C++ Problem with WM_CHARTOITEM message for applications using a manifest

  Hi, I've a problem with the WM_CHARTOITEM message of a list box control. I'm writing a MFC application using Visual Studio 2005. The application use a manifest file. My listbox send a WM_CHARTOITEM message to the parent window but the parameters of the message seems to be wrong. In MSDN the parameters are described like: wParam The low-order word specifies the value of the key the user pressed. The high-order word specifies the current position of the caret. lParam Handle to the list box. In my application the lParam is correct (Handle to the listbox) but the wParam is corrupt. The low order word does contain the key in the low byt ...Show All

• Windows Forms Property DefaultValue of type Point or Size

  I have a usercontrol with many public properties and I want to set their default value.  For those that are int and string, I know how to do that ( [ Category ( "Layout" ), DefaultValue (10)] ), but how do I do it with type point or type size Thanks JGA Well you can do this for point: [DefaultValue(typeof(Point), "0, 0")] or you can not apply a DefaultValue attribute and instead use the ShouldSerialize*** pattern. For example, in Control, we have a  private bool ShouldSerializeSize() { ... return true   if size isn't the default ...  }   And the designer calls this method to decide if the Siz ...Show All

• Visual C++ \CLR Compilation woes!

  Iv compiled my current C++ project as \clr as i want to start putting in some specific C++\CLI code to serialize my MFC objects to .NET equivalents. The program crashes on startup, something to do with the stack frame being corrupted. My first concern is the program has ballooned in terms of the size of the executable image. When it attempts to run it fails and some report about stack frame corruption. Iv noticed any C files have to be converted to C++. The program links to a DLL and Libs that have been compiled as C. Is this a problem when compiling a program as /CLR that then links with C libs etc and on startup loads C Dlls How can ...Show All
