• Visual Studio Express Editions How do I: Modify Published Project

  I can't figure out how to design / make changes to the code / form after I've published it. How can I go back and make changes I can't "view" the form any more. I can't add any objects or modify any of my code. I've saved the project using the "Save All" feature and published my application to CD. Now I want to go back and make cosmetic changes and code changes - however, I can't figure out how to bring up the de ...Show All

• .NET Development Null is returned for GetManifestResourceStream

  I posted this in the web services and XML serialization group first, because I thought someone may have seen the error in relation to web services with types that implement IXmlSerializable. However, upon further reflection I believe the issue is really a Reflection issue (pun intended). The link to the original post (including example code) is: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=470391&SiteID=1 The scenario simply p ...Show All

• Visual Basic Improve this code (for fun)

  Hi all, Just thought if it's allowed, i'd make a 'improve this code' type post.  No real point, just to see how it ends up. The code is for making 'flying text' on a form. All you need it to make a new project, and replace the form's code with this code.  No adding of controls needed. The code is not commented, i figure it's pretty self-explanitory. Basically right now, the animation is triggered by a created timer, and text is draw ...Show All

• SQL Server Incompatible Data Types question

  Hi, I've got a dimension table with an Int32 primary key.  I have a few fact tables that have an Int16 field, which is acting as a foreign key to the dimension table.  I can't actually change the data types of these tables in the SQL database, but I'd still like to create a cube that uses those 32 bit dimension tables with the 16 bit field entries.  Unfortunately, the cube designer won't let me specify a relationshop between the t ...Show All

• Visual C# How to change the color of the app's title bar?

  Hello, How do I change the color of the app's title bar (where you have the Close, Minimize and Maximize buttons) in C# Mateusz   I personally wouldn't create a user control for the borders. The non-client area is built for these situations. The correct way to do this is to create a form with your own borders. How to do so is described here .

This is pretty easy to replicate, create a new Addin, register for applicationObject.Events.BuildEvents.OnBuildDone in the OnConnection() method. In the event handler, trace out the value of the parameters passed in.  When the addin is registered, start another VS05 session and use a different solution an ...Show All
