• Visual Studio VS 2005 he&&

  Hello All, Hopefully someone can steer me in the right direction:) I have installed VS 2005 with success. After about a week of using it I had issues with the IDE not accepting certain key input (eg. arrows and enter).

• .NET Development Is it possible to change the namespace of parts of a wse3wsdl.exe generated proxy?

  My web service uses typed DataSets quite a bit, and so the typed DataSet is part of the proxy file generated by the wse3wsdl.exe tool. The problem is that all the generated proxy code lives in one namespace. For most of the objects, this is fine, but for the DataSets, it doesn't make sense. Is there any web service attribute I can use that will change the namespace of certain classes in the proxy If not, this would be a very useful feature, a ...Show All

• .NET Development Sockets and Serialization

  Hi, I'm building a windows forms app that needs to connect to a server farm via the internet. Performance is of the essence. I'm thinking to use .NET remoting but I prefer sockets to avoid the complexity of remoting; the data I need to pass are small in size anyway. For larger data I'll use Web services. I know that sockets connection can pass array of bytes and not objects. Can I pass a serialized object from socket to socket There' ...Show All

• SQL Server Recursively Calling A Stored Procedure Problem

  I am writing a stored procedure that fetches the topmost value from a table, based on an ID parameter. If this value is a number the stored procedure should simply return it. If the value is an operator the stored proc needs to recursively call itself until it has two operands to use the operator on. Fairly simple logic. However I am running aground trying to get this into T-SQL. Basically I have this call in the sp: (CREATE PROC EvalFormula @b ...Show All

• Visual C# No clue about arrays, everything fails ...

  I want to fill an array in the constructor of my object, and then use it in in another method. But no matter what I try, I can't get this right. It is too different from how arrays used to be.

• Windows Forms What is that control? Like the Toolbox/Server Explorer in VS.IDE

  Hi, all! I want to find a sample of how to develop a control in my windows form that is pretty much like Toolbox/Server Explorer control in VS IDE. The one that will dock to one edge of the form, and will pop up a menu with icons when mouse hovers over it. Then users can launch other windows from there.
