• Visual Basic Arrays Visual Basic and fortran via DLL

   Hi! I have an application that was originally written in VB6. This application uses some routines written in Fortran. These routines are available via dll to the VB application. I am now trying to convert the same application to vb 2005 express edition and it seems that the arrays are passed to Fortran in a different way. My guess is that in Fortran and VB6 the arrays are passed by columns and in VB2005 by rows. Is this possible Is there any way to change this Here you have something that doesn't work Help please!

• .NET Development Sending signed chars instead of bytes using TCP

  Dear all: Thanks for taking a look at this question, I'm new to c++.net and frustrated in my managed c++ implementation of Async TCP/IP server client communication. Basically I'm using ascii encoding and trying to direct the signed characters from a com port through the net to another com port device, however my working code is using byte array for the tcp/ip send/receive, which turns out to produce different char code(or byte code in integer), Which I believe is caused by I converted signed char to byte array during the net transmission. I googled but found nothing yet how to send signed char array through TCP/IP. ...Show All

• Visual C# SQL lookup

  I am a new user to Visual Studio and SQL Server. This is probably a question that has been asked before but I can't seem to find it anywhere. I have an SQL database with two tables. One has a primary key and the second has a primary key with a foreign key referring back to the first table. I display the fields that are of interest in about 9 text boxes. My question is how do I use the text box containing the key for the second table and derive the rest of the information to display in the other text boxes I type in the number and should be able to get the rest of the information but I'm just plain stuck. I know that I can use the views and ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System VSTS Unit Testing For Win CE

  I have built a Win CE app in VSTS. When I attempt to create a test project on that app, it provides the System.dll associated with normal Windows instead of the one compatible with Compact Framework library. I tried re-referencing the Win CE System.dll in the test project and corrected the resulting compilation errors as best I could. However, when I attempted to build the test project, VSTS reported that there were build errors which were not present in the Error List pane. As a result, I could not run any tests. Does anyone have a similar situation and know of the solution TIA. dlausch Can you ...Show All
