• Windows Forms Showing Icons In A DataGridViewImageColumn

  First had this with the beta, but it's still there with the release MSVCS/framework. My main problem is that there is no background drawn in for the Icon. Hence when the control is first drawn whatever was there before remains around the Icon. If the icon changes, it overwrites the previous one. If the window is dragged the Icon and the (incorrect background) are moved. I tried converting the icons to bitmaps, but the bitmaps have alpha channels so the problem remains. I have tried setting ValuesAreIcons true on the column but to no avail. I have tried various background colours but they don't show either. It's ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office VSTO Deployment

  Hi all We have just started our work with VSTO enabled documents. We have made our first Proof-Of-Concept solution, which works in our development environment. So now we have come to the next level, deciding and implementing our deployment strategy. So I was wondering if any of you could provide some help, links to guides, or just general comments on "how-to". Our primary deployment strategy is to store both the actual templates and the managed code dll on the network. Currently we have only one dll pr template - but that may change when we get more and more templates, and are able to reuse some of the code. So in a deployment ...Show All

• Visual Basic Trim method is not working.

  Here is my code: For i As UInt64 = 132296 To 132303 tbName.Text += Convert.ToChar(b(i)) If tbName.Text.Contains(" ") Then Exit For : tbName.Text.Trim(" ") Next It is supposed to stop the loop when a space is encountered and then delete all spaces that crept in. It does stop the loop after a space is encountered but the space isn't deleted. I looked though help and it said the Unicode equivilant for a space is U+0020 . I put that as an argument and the code editor split it like so: U + 20 . Then it said that U wasn't declared. This is probably simple but I cannot get it. Any ideas Hi, tbName.Text ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions ; after every line in int main() {}

  I read in a tutorial that at the end of every line in the int main() {} . But then I had a bunch of problems coming up with this code and one of the main problems was the fact that I put semicolons at the end of every line in the int main function. Here is the code: #include <iostream> using namespace std; int main() { int choice; cout << "Enter the number 1 if you want the color blue \n"; cout << "Enter the number 2 if you want the color red \n"; cout << "Enter the number 3 if you want the color green \n"; cout << "Enter the number 4 if you want the color orange \n&qu ...Show All

• Visual Studio Merging auto-generated code with custom code?

  Let’s say you have a DSL combined with a set of wizard and recipes to generate code for a custom framework on which a customer would like to build all future .NET applications. As a developer I start the first iteration of the application development and generate supported implementation artifacts. Then I continue adding my business logic (e.g. code behind “click” events in a form or code in C# classes which skeletons were generated through recipes). In iteration #2 I figure that I messed up the framework code that was initially generated. For instance, I modified the caching mechanism of the framework which in consequence led to viol ...Show All

  Hi, I have got the problem connected with Send Mail Task in SSIS. The general idea was: sending email alert to different email users.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) No WinFX template in VS2005!?

  I have installed the Visual Studio 2005 Extensions, but there's no WinFX project template in Visual Studio. I'm using Vindows Vista Beta 2 Build 5384.4. When you installed Vista Beta 2, did you reformat the hard disk If not, I wonder if your problem could be caused by an old version of the Visual Studio extensions for WinFX on your disk. Also, you are using the Beta 2 version of the Visual Studio extensions, right Tom ...Show All
