• Visual Basic VB express conecting array and table

  I would like some general info on connecting an array and a table. Specific code examples that work and that I can play with would be VERY helpful. Also my Visual Basic for Dummies book talks about an Arraylist as being very good but I have found very little on using it with multiple columns. In fact there is one help page that indicates that it can only be one dimensional. I have created and connected a database to a table and am tying to find the best way to display calculations done on the database values. I do not see any choice to bind an array in the "properties:right-click-on-column:edit columns" area where I bound the ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office VSTO 2005 Word Bookmarks

  On the client side I created a Word Document Project using "add the datasource to the project, add the bookmark controls and then databind the bookmark controls to the fields in the datasource" and "you should be able to simply drag and drop a field from the datasource to the document to create a bound bookmark control." (thanks to Ken Laws 24 June 2005). I used the DataSet Wizard to create a strongly typed dataset connected to the DB. The drag and drop worked fine. On the server side I used a trigger to indicate added DB records and cached the record in a copy of the client side word document. On the client side I ...Show All

• Visual Studio VSIP/Visual Studio 2005 SDK and open source language services?

  In the near future I would like to attempt a language services plug-in using the Visual Studio 2005 SDK (formerly called VSIP I believe); the free version, to be specific. However, since I may or may not have much time in the future to work on it, I was wondering if a non-viral open source license - something like MIT or BSD that does not propogate up the chain - would be OK. I do not care much about the particulars of whatever licenses are acceptable; anything that lets me share the source so other people can hack on it is fine by me. Any-one know the answer to this C'mon now. There's no need to be afra ...Show All
