• Visual Studio Using an object as input to the CR Designer and runtime

  I just succeeded in getting my first CR .rpt file built with the ADO.Net Dataset designer resulting in a nice tabular report at runtime (passing an ADO.Net dataset, rendering it as a PDF report, etc). Now I need to find out how to fill out the Report Header and Page Header sections. At runtime, most all of the information I need for these sections is available to me in the Request.Form object. Are there any good examples of how to model report sections at design time when the "data" for will not be available till runtime in some .Net object Replace the single quote with double quote. string= ...Show All

• Visual C# Help me : Recognise a word by press Ctrl+ right mouse click

  I make an dictionary application , i want to make a function : user can Ctrl + right click on the word ( Inside my own application , not other application ) and i show the meaning of word. How can I recognise a word by press Ctrl+ right mouse click Can you help me with some demo or can you give me an advice. Thank you very much. Hi! All depends on how you show words in your app. If you use TextBox or RichTextBox - use GetCharIndexFromPosition() to find the right character in right mouse down event. When you have index inside text - it's easy to find word by scanning forward and backward. If you render words by yourself ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System How to view labels for a file in Team Foundation?

  I am using VSTS 2005 Team Suite June CTP. I add a label to a file, but the History command doesn't seem to show the labels that are assigned to a file.  I don't see any way to view the labels assigned to a file in Team Foundation. Am I missing something obvious or is this truly not supported While it's not exposed in our clients, there is an overload of QueryLabels that lets you see which labels are associated with a filespec. Example here: http://blogs.msdn.com/buckh/archive/2005/10/25/484854.aspx I don't believe we store the timestamp when a label was applied/modified. ...Show All

• Visual C# classes best practices

  Hey guys, I am still new at this and was wondering what the best practices for creating and handling classes were. Is it better to build my classes inside one major C# file or do I need to create an individual file for each individual class or is it just better to have my classes embedded in the particular form I am working on Which is the best approach and best practice for classes Thanks, ~zero In my opinion it does not really matter at all how you orginize your code files, just do whatever seems to be reasonable... It is even valid to split one class over multiple files (partial class) if it makes sense to organize your ...Show All

• .NET Development WS-SecureConversation and UsernameToken

  Hello, I've posted this on the Channel 9 Techoff forums but it doesn't seem to be getting any responses there so I thought I would try it here: I've tried searching for online material and looking through some code samples but am still in doubt as to the easiest way to do the following:  I want to initiate a SecureConversation using a UsernameToken, and do it in a secure manner.  Now, sending UsernameTokens securely seems to be a hot topic but none of the examples I've looked at seem to be any good.  Two methtods seem like good solutions but they really aren't that great (in terms of elegance) and I really think there is a ...Show All

• SQL Server How to implement split and merge?

  I need to implement following flow: [Source] - > [Split] -  [IF TRUE] -> [DO SOMETHING] - [OUTPUT TO C] -  [IF FALSE] -> [DO SOMETHING ELSE] - [OUTPUT TO C] The issue is to come back to the same destination after conditional split. In other words, is there something opposite to "Multicast" I looked at Union and Merge - but it looks like it's not for this kind of things. Thanks. There is no requirement for both inputs into a UNION ALL component to both have data. It will work perfectly well if no rows at all are passed through it - which is of course true for ...Show All
