• Visual Basic Checking a running time in minutes and seconds against a standard time.

  I am trying to create a way to check a time placed in two text boxes against a standard time in minutes and seconds. Then display whether the user met that standard or not in a label. I can set everything up, and figure out the logic, but I am having a tough time with the syntax for setting the string values from the text boxes to time values of minutes and seconds.  This is for VB.net 2005 Help Scott Hi, It is not very clear as to what you are trying to set the values for - Is it the DateTime class Regards, Vikram ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Basic questions: Save state, users control, hold task...

  Hi. I have some experience in workflow and .Net. I worked with W4 (a workflow suite) and asp.Net for nearly 7 month and now i'm planing on developing a new workflow aplication using Windows Workflow Foundation. The problem is the only experience I have in workflow is about W4, so I'm loosing myself becouse I still have some kind of "W4 approach" to the project. I will try to make my question as clear as posible: -How do i manage users of the workflow In W4 I can set roles and asign a task to a role so only members of that role will recieve that task. But I'm completely lost when trying to do that in Windows Wor ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Append to XML file

  I'm trying to make an application to keep track of recipes, but I can't figure out how to append to an XML file.  I've searched online, but I'm not coming up with the answer.  Someone suggested a dataset, but I can't figure out how to use that to append to an XML file.  I'll show an example of the code and what the XML file currently looks like.

• Visual Basic Build Complete Notification Sounds

  I just upgraded to Visual Studio 2005 from VS6.0  and I cannot find any documentation for Visual Studio sounds schemes.  In VS6.0 I could have seperate sounds for "BuildComplete", "BuildError", and "BuildWarning".  In Visual Studio I can only create a sound for VS_BreakpointHit  Are any of the others available The three I mentioned in my post BuildComplete, BuildWarrning, and BuildError.  I found I didn't need notification for every warning or error durning the build, but an all done sound was very usefull.  Some sounds when doing a "Find in Files" would be nice as well. &nb ...Show All

• Visual C# 'Couldn't find specified module.', 'FileNotFoundException' when declaring class

  When I declare a class from a referenced DLL (TrueVision3D.dll), Visual C# (2005 Express) throws a FileNotFoundException, containing the description: ' Couldn't find specified module. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E) '. The strange thing is this source code and DLL worked before, but after I reinstalled Windows XP it doesn't work anymore. All required dependencies are there in the right place -already checked that. Also: it only appears when debugging. When I run the Release executable, it just runs. Little sample code: static void Main(string[] args) { TrueVision3D.TVEngine engine; << this line throws the actual error. Sy ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Anonymous Structs

  Is c# 3.0 going to support anonymous structs ever. like: struct { int ; int ;} bgHome = new {42,21}; If not why not It seems like a great alternative to always goin the var route. If you are going to support it, will you also provide support for using them as return types. Giving us this ability allows us to expicitly define our anonymous types upfront, hence we can pass them and arguments and return them from methods unlike var. I guess I dont understand why this was not provided before var, since this approach is much more inline with strong typing that var is. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Several issues with TeamBuild, July CTP

  I'm using the July CTP and have setup the application tier to be the build server. During the configuration of TeamBuild, I ran across the following: Since Visual Studio also guards the Bin folder in Web projects, any assemblies in that directory are added to Source Control. When these assemblies are actually project references, TeamBuild fails (MSB4126) to copy the output of these projects to the Bin directory (Access denied, files are read-only). I had to override the BeforeCompile target to remove the write-protection from these files to work around this.

• Visual Studio Express Editions GetDirectories problem/error

  I get the following error: The CLR has been unable to transition from COM context 0x1a01d0 to COM context 0x1a0340 for 60 seconds. The thread that owns the destination context/apartment is most likely either doing a non pumping wait or processing a very long running operation without pumping Windows messages. This situation generally has a negative performance impact and may even lead to the application becoming non responsive or memory usage accumulating continually over time. To avoid this problem, all single threaded apartment (STA) threads should use pumping wait primitives (such as CoWaitForMultipleHandles) and routinely pump message ...Show All
