• Visual C++ .net 2005 beta 2 corrupts MBCS strings in resource files

  I'm having trouble with a multi-project solution with several Asian Language resources.  I've ported this from VC6. It appears that VC8 and the dev studio have fundamental problems with handling MBCS resource text.  Here are the easy steps to duplicate this problem: Create an MFC dialog based project in VC8.  Use all the defaults Add some new strings to the English String table Create a copy of the English string table, select the Japanese language for the new resource. edit the .rc file, and replace some of the strings in the Japanese resource section with MBCS Japanese text.  I've been doing this step with MSVC6, s ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Project Delete Problem

  I am trying to delete project using deleteteamproject.exe utility with /force switch. Project disappears from Team Projects list in IDE, but then attempt to create project with the same name fails.  Log states: "Project ABC already exists on server ts" . After some investigation I found out that project data was removed from BisDB, but still exists in BisDWDB database. I guess it is some kind of synchronization problem. Any help will be greatly appreciated! In beta 2, reusing the names of deleted team projects will cause problems.  For beta 2, you must always enter a name that has not been used on that server.

• Visual C++ Accurate Timer (ON_WM_TIMER) / Pending Timer Queue

  Hi, When using SetTimer and KillTimer, the MSDN reference for KillTimer says this, "Pending WM_TIMER messages associated with the timer are not removed from the message queue." How could I flush pending WM_TIMER messages associated with the timer There is no way to remove them from the queue Thanks, Jason You can use PeekMessage with the PM_REMOVE to search for specific WM_TIMER messages for a window, but with this function you have to chance to test the timer id if you have more timer. Why do you need to remove previously posted timer events. When you set a new timer interval, the current just got trigered. Why shouldn' ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office KB 907417 & 908002

  Hi; Asking new because I think this got lost in the message it was a reply to... Just to confirm, if I have run the latest windows update and it shows no updates for Word, then the fixes in KB907417 should be on my machine - correct I have never run the fix in KB907417 and on my dev machine it has version 7.10.5077.0 but my test system, which shows no pending office updates, has 7.10.3191.0. So it looks like I do have to install it. Do we run this same update for Word 2002 and Word 2000 Or is there a different update in their cases And for our customers, I assume we have to point them at this fix Or will it be included ...Show All
