• Smart Device Development Using Pocket PC Phone as modem from within device application.

  I have a Pocket PC Phone running Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition (Sprint PCS PPC6601) and I would like to know if there is a way to access the modem functionality built into the phone from within a .Net Compact Framework application running on the phone. I would like to be able to dial out and receive regular data calls from this application. Notice that I am not trying to connect to the Internet or any other TCP/IP network. Any help would be greatly appreciated! You won't have much luck estabilishing this type of connection with your device. What you're after is something called a "circuit-switched ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System subscribe an event using the API

  Hi, Can any one please pass the code how to subscribe an event using the API. I couldnt find any example of this issue. Thanks in advance, Shmulik. The API you are looking for is in the Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Server namespace in the Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Common assembly. The interface that allows you to manipulate subscriptions is IEventService. You would do something like this: using System; using Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Client; using Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Server; namespace SubscriptionTest { class Program { static void Main( string [] ar ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro Need help Database trigger

  Hi    I have been tasked to convert an old Clipper app to Foxpro Ver 9.0. The old software has 2 fields in all the databases one called ChangedOn and one called DeletedOn. These fields hold the date,time,computer name, and login name of the machine and user. These fields were updated anytime a record was changed or marked for deletion.   I would like to use the database triggers to update these fields because of the numerous places in the app that modify or delete records. I have created a procedure to modify this field in the record but I get an error that the cursor is read only. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I would ...Show All

• Visual C# ?? What Does 'Strongly Typed' xxx Mean ???

  Hi again everyone, I'm sorry for two questions in one day but this has been on my mind for a long time. I understand what it means for C# to be a strongly typed language but I often read about one object or another being strongly typed. A good example is the documentation for System.Windows.Forms.Binding, which refers to: A strongly typed IList of strongly typed objects I have also heard this term ( strongly typed ) when referring to ADO.NET objects. What does it mean for an object to be strongly typed and also, what does it mean if an object is not strongly typed Thanks again. When ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Turn off NE2000 confirmation prompt

  Howdy all you experts! Listen, I got the device emulator set up on a stand alone machine (no VS), and also installed Virtual PC 2004. I am now getting full network connectivity (yeah!) but I do not like the prompt that comes up when I start my session. It says "Do you want to enable emulation of NE2000 network card This will allow code running inside the emulator to have access to this network." Nitpicky, huh :-) Is there any way to get it to not ask this question, or is there a switch I can add to my command line that will silently answer it Thanks! -RandyB Please use /nosecuritypromp ...Show All

• Visual Basic ActiveX Web Browser - Is this possible?

  I was wondering if someone could tell me if the following is possible, and perhaps set me on the right track: Create an ActiveX Web Browser on a form, navigate to a certain page, programatically click links on said page, programatically manipulate a drop-down box on the page, programatically click a button on the page, capture the pop-up web browser which comes up and parse the data from that browser. I would be most grateful for any help I might receive on this matter. Thank you for your attention.

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Outlook 2003 VSTO error

  I've been creating an Outlook 2003 Add-In using VS 2005 and VSTO 2005. I've recently come into a glitch that I cannot find any information about and was wondering if any of you had any information on it. The same error happens on the Visual Studio 2005 Tools for Office Sample: Outlook Business Contact Assistant Sample, so I know that it isn't just my code. (link at bottom) Problem: When I build and install the Add-In using the auto created setup file (msi) the dll gives an error and never loads. In fact you have to go to the COM Add-Ins and add it in to see the error. The error is "C:\Program Files\Microsoft\BusinessCon ...Show All

• .NET Development NullReferenceException from System.dll using Release rather than Debug

  I am having a problem obtaining a NullReferenceException in system.dll when I execute my program compiled in Release configuration rather than Debug configuration. The program runs fine when compiled in Debug, but issues the exception window and continues to execute when compiled in Release. I am using C++ 2005 Express with .NET 2.0 I wish I could, but the environemnt gave me little to go on but a full dump - not stack trace. Believe it or not, it stopped happening, so I guess there is no problem. I am unsure what I did to fix it. I guess it's just one of "those" kind of problems. ...Show All
