• Visual Basic Class Structuring

  I have a set of routines and functions I wish to group together under a class.  I have spent some time looking around the Internet and have figured out how to set and use a basic class.  However, I need to do more than what I have seen and without training or access to books to tell me, I'm stuffed. If somebody could give me the basic structure for the following, I'll hopefuly be able to take a look and expand upon it to cover my needs. The class accesses a sql database and returns useful information to any applications which will inherit the class.  As the database may move to a different server in the medium term, I want t ...Show All

• Visual C++ Newline in TextBox.Text property

  I am programatically changing the value of a TextBox's Text property, and I need to be able to create newlines in the text for it to be readable.  I can use the /n escape character when I'm creating a command line tool, but when I try to use it in the value of TextBox's Text property, it won't work.  It just displays a little line.  Any help is appreciated! ok actually the other guy was right you need both exactly like he posted, you need "/r/n" at the end of the string, this makes it go to a new line in a text box something like this might be what people are looking ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Reports contain no data (Possible internationalisation error?)

  TFS is working fine and our team has started using it in earnest now as we move our first big project over to it. However, the reports, even the Work Items report remains totally blank of data which is puzzling to say the least. I've been following the suggestions on here about checking the last time the cube was updated and I've refreshed that and all seems ok. One observation I do have, is the line on the report which says: "Report Generated: 12/9/2005 2:32:39 PM by <domain account>; Last Warehouse Update: 09/12/2005 14:05:56" You will notice that the two dates are in different formats: Reporting Services is in US form ...Show All

• Visual C++ debugging issue

  If anyone can clue me in it would be appreciated!!!! I have written an application in VC++.Net 2005. I get different results when I run "Start Debugging" from when I run "Start Without Debugging". How can this possibly be What are some possible causes hoosierboy There may be a race condition that is only apparent in one of the cases. We run the same binary in both cases so it's not an optimization issue I imagine. Can you add some extra detail as to what is behaving differently Ideally, a short code snippet would be ideal.

• Visual Studio Team System Generate Application Diagram from the project

  Hello, from the application diagram I can generate the project. How can I do the viceversa (from the project to the diagram)   Thanks, Pierre Hi Pierre, Yes you can do this for application prototypes supported on the application diagram (ASP.NET Web services, Web apps, Windows apps). We call this reverse engineering and to do it, right-click your solution node and add a new Distributed System Diagram to the solution (application diagram). You can find more information about doing this out here at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/library/ms181830(en-us,vs.80).aspx Please let me know if you have more questions. ...Show All

• Visual C++ I'm going to fall for the test

  I need to write to a text file that has Unix linefeeds, but my Std C++-based console app is writing Dos linefeeds.  For example, If I do something like: std::ofstream test( "test.txt" ); test << "Hello\nWorld" ; test.close(); The resulting file has \r\n in it (0x0d 0x0a when viewed with binary editor). The same thing occurs when I do fopen( "test.txt", "w") followed by fwrite, which sets the mode to text (the default).  Only when I do fopen( "test.txt", "wb"), I get Unix LF (i.e. 0x0a only). But I would rather not have to dive this deep with my I/O code.  Am I missing something Thanks, Brian ...Show All

• Visual Studio Help still broken

  Just installed the release version of VS2005 standard. Alas, F1 help is still broken. If I position the cursor over a word (for example HANDLE) and hit F1, the following happens: 1. If MSDN is set to use local help only, it always displays the topic-not-found page, even though on the left hand side, the topic is not only present, but selected. A single click on the highlighted item displays the correct information. 2. If MSDN is set to use online help first, then pressing F1 takes up to a minute (looks like multiple redirections happening), then either displays the topic-not-found page or displays something only vaguely related to the select ...Show All

• Visual Studio Auto Print a Crystal Reports Report

  I have a WebForm with a CrystalReports Viewer and is working fine, when I click the print button it works fine as expected. The question is that I need to make this Click in an automatic way, something like all.form1.PrinButton.click(), aimed to fire the event that prints the document, or someway to fire this event from the vb code. I've alrady checked the documents explaining how to print from the server, and with window.print(), but they don't work for what I need. Any Sugestions Thanks. Alex Reyes. I thought there was a way to grab the report name from solution explorer, in fact I know there is. Instead of the hard path  with ...Show All

• Visual Basic Photo Matching Database

  User selects a picture and querys the database for a match. How do I write the Code for this SELECT id, image, description FROM pictures [database] WHERE image EQUALS picturebox1.image I am concerned that the "image" format stored in the db will not match  picturebox1.image and that I probably will have to convert picturebox1 into a binary array to match the format already in the database.  Furthermore, I might have to compare byte for byte for both image.  This would be too slow. I need the best (speed) way to match an picturebox with a stored image in the database.  Thanks. ...Show All

• Visual Basic Multiple Icons In An Assembly

My problem is that i want a seperate icon for the .fol file other than the one my assembly has. What i want is to be able to somehow put more than one icon into the assembly - other than the assemby's icon - and link the default icon for the .fol file type with the second or third icon in my assembly, so that i don't have to include a seperate icon files.
