• Visual Studio Express Editions ListView sorting question

  Hi I have a ListView control called HSlist on a form which has 3 columns. The adding data seems to work OK, but the sorting is weird to say the least. Initially, I thought that the list would be sorted on the contents in the first column, so I added to the ListView with the Item containing the data that I wanted the list to be sorted on (numerical). Then I found that the list was being sorted on the second column (strings), so I swapped the adding routine so that the numerical data was now in the second column - the list now was being sorted on the first column (strings). What I want, is either to be able to dictate which column the ...Show All

• Visual Basic VB. Net Form does not refresh

  Hi, I have created a simple VB.NET application with one form and a few modules. When a user clicks on a run button of the form the application starts and goes through differet cycle, while updating the user on status bar, runs for less than four hours. The application works fine, it gives desired result. However, it is not able to refresh the user form, meaning status bar remains same after some time (it suppose to increment). Even when I take mouse on the form it shows timer symbole instead of default one. My application commands another device using GPIB. Basically, PC running my application commands the device. If I look the disp ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Connecting to AS400 database in Smart Device Application

  Hi, I'm developing a smart device application and want to connect to AS400 database. Is there anyway to do so Thank you, Niki If you mean DB2 database running on AS/400, I don't believe there's ADO.Net provider for NETCF.

  Hi, I was wondering if there is an easy wasy to obtain a hard copy of the standard rules set. Information like Name, Description, etc. TIA There's no easy way, currently.

• Visual C++ VC2005 %50 Slower then VC2003

  I just migrated a graphics application from VC2003 to VC2005.  After building it, I ran a small benchmark & found that VC2005 code was about %50 slower. The Application does a great deal of floating point and integer calculations.  It also converts doubles to int quite a bit (the VC2003 version used SSE to handle this). The VC2003 version used /G7 and /Ow (which are not available in VC2005) Compiler Switches Used: (vc2003)/arch:SSE2 /c /EHa /FD /GF /GL /Gs8192 /Gy /MT /nologo /O2 /Ob2 /Og /Oi /Ot /Ow /Oy /TP /W3 /WX /Zi (vc2005)/arch:SSE2 /c /EHa /FD /G7 /GF /GL /GS- /Gs8192 /Gy /MT /nologo /O2 /Ob2 /Og /Oi /Ot /Oy /TP ...Show All
