Visual Basic VS 2005 IDE Unresponsive
We had originally installed Beta 2 of the product which ran better than expected. After using the tool from MS to uninstall the beta software we then installed VS2005 Final which we downloaded through our msdn subscription. The IDE becomes just about unusable. Not only that but it pretty much renders the computer useless while it eats up CPU cycles. This occurs during the following conditions: 1.) We make a small change in code and the editor hangs, the hour glass pops up and the cpu usage for the devenv.exe process is usually at 99%. The icon at the top of the VS IDE switches to the default exe icon. This unresponsive behavior usually ...Show All

Windows Forms winforms 2.0: how to create a template that contains an "about" form + splashScreen

Visual FoxPro How to play a Windows Media Audio format (WMA) in VFP?
Hi all, I am now trying to create a small program to play media audio files. I'm now using the MultiMedia ActiveX control (mci.ocx) to play these files but this ocx seems can not play WMA files while this type of file is getting more and more popular to music-lovers. Could anyone tell me how to play WMA files in VFP. Note:I want to play them directly in VFP with MCI control or with some API function that VFP can handle, do not have to use ActiveX of 3rd party (If have to use ActiveX of a third party to play , i can create one for my own in VB6). Do you have the latest codecs installed, right my two cents, ...Show All

Visual Studio Team System Team Build not setting "Integration Build"/"Resolved In Build" for associated work items
I apologize if this has been answered before, but my searching turned up nothing. For some reason when we run our builds they're not updating the "Integration Build" (for scenarios/tasks) or "Resolved In Build" (for bugs) fields. The build knows what work items were resolved between builds because they show up just fine in the reports, but it's not updating the actual work items. Any clues TIA, Drew Nevvvvvermind. No sooner do I ask than I figure out that the UpdateAssociatedWorkItems property is not being set by our TFSBuild.proj. *sigh* Well, hopefully this helps s ...Show All

Smart Device Development Using x86 emulator with DEM
Is it possible to use the x86 v5.3 emulator with the Device Emulator Manager (DEM) It only seems to populate the list with the images that support the new Arm based emulator. It's strange that I can see the platforms for all the SDKs I've installed, but there are no workable image entries for emulation. Not at this time. The existing X86 emulator does not have the proper drivers installed to support the user of the Device Emulator Manager, and we have no plans to add them at this time. ...Show All
