• Windows Forms .Net: Using VB to bind controls to a dataset row/column

  I am creating a VB form for which I use the control name to identify the table and column of a single row dataset. I bind the controls when the form is loaded and the data is correctly displayed as I expect.  However when I update the control (say a Textbox) the change is not reflected in the dataset.  This has been confirmed by stepping through the statements in debug mode.  I was wondering if I had missed something in my configuration or if there was an additional activity I need to perform to get the changed control property (Text) back to the recordset.  I have tried assigning a BindingManager but have had no success. ...Show All

• SQL Server Exporting Report Builder Tabular Report to CSV

  A simple tabular Report Builder report was written to feed another system that requires quoted CSV. I have two issues when exported: 1) I can't get control over the exported column names. Currently, they are exported as "FIELDNAME_Value". When I try to change the column headings in the designer, it has no effect on the exported column names When I create a New Field and specify my desired column name (e.g., COMPANY), the export appears as COMPANY_Value. How do I control these names for the CSV export 2) The spec calls for quoted text. In my export, only values with special characters are quoted. Thanks in adva ...Show All

• Visual C++ WM_KEYDOWN

  Hello, I am looking for some help on making a program that will give me the number for each key. I known that I need to hook the keyboard first, and I have that code. Now, from there I am oblivious as to what I need to do next. Any refrences or sample codes would be great. Thanks. Note: Win32 API is what was writing this in. If I can possibly stick to that, it would be great. Thank you. (This is NOT for a homework assignment, instead I was curious about the keyboard's numbering, for all combinations) ctimko ctimko wrote: Hello, I am looking for some help on making a program that will give me the number for each key.

• .NET Development Web Service and Application Security

  My application software is deployed across two tiers; a WinForms workstation client and a Web Services layer. My application will require authentication, however I'm not keen on building my own authentication services into the application. Rather, I'd like to leverage Windows domain security. I can think of three scenarios: 1. The user is logged in to the domain. In this case, I'm assuming that the user's credentials will be used automatically when calling secured web services. 2. The user is not logged in to the internal network. When accessing the secured web service without credentials, will the user be automatically prompted for credenti ...Show All

• Visual C++ LNK2019 problems

  I'm currently migrating a DLL which compiles and links fine on Visual Studio .NET 2003 over to Visual Studio 2005. Its using a couple of custom libraries provided by a thrid party (but source included). I've recompiled the external libraries without a problem, and the linker can find them fine. I have to specifically tell the linker to ignore libcmt.lib and libcpmt.lib, as for some reason it tries to link them in (I'm compiling as a multi-threaded DLL), but that's not a big issue. The problem is that when it links, it gets a linker error LNK2019 for each of the external libraries I'm using. The error messages are as follows: error LNK2019: ...Show All
