• SQL Server SQL Server Express fails to install

  I'm experiencing a problem installing SQL Server Express 2005. I thought I had the same problem as Tom from a recent thread but his error file is quite different from mine. The Visual Basic Express package properly installed everything except SQL Server. I've run it many times, but the service fails to start. I also downloaded the separate installation package for SQL Server Express and ran it several times, which also failed. It gets to a point where the services are installed, but when I try to manually start the SQL service it says that the service started and then stopped. The event viewer shows this error: Product: Microsoft S ...Show All

• Visual C# Special characters in identifiers

  Hi, I've noticed that it's now possible to use special characters in identifiers (diacritical marks). I was wondering is this now a supported feature or is it just by accident of some sort (and should be avoided). For example: int irklis = 3; // compiles without problem (notice the ' ' and ' ') private void par d t(int .....) { ... } // notice the ' ' and ' ' Thanks in advance! Thanks for that link. Now that explains everything. Cool. Maybe I can convince my boss and the rest of the team to take advantage of this feature. Thanks for your time, Jon! ...Show All

• Visual C++ How to call unmanaged C++ DLL with a CString reference

  I am building a managed C++ wrapper DLL around an unmanaged C++ DLL that uses MFC CStrings in its public interface. The unmanaged C++ DLL contains a class that I need to access. My problem is that this class contains methods using CString references, such as: void SetName(const CString& name); How can I call this method from my managed C++ code I have tried this in my wrapper code: void CMfcDllWrapper::SetName(System::String^ str) { CString s(str); m_pUnmanaged->SetName(s); } where m_pUnmanaged points to the C++ object in the unmanaged DLL.

• .NET Development Short key to my band object

  Hi I am developing a special search bar to be placed on the toolbar. It consists of a text box. The thing is that I want to activate it (put the cursor on it) just by pressing Alt + q or something. I've searched but havn't found anything usefull. Please help me and I might share my creation =) As far as I know, the only build in way is to set the keypreview property of of the form that hosts the toolbar to true and use the keydown event to trap the alt-q keycombo and set the focus to the control.
