• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) What happened to the ADO.NET 3.0 May CTP?

  It was announced here http://bloggingabout.net/blogs/erwyn/archive/2006/05/11/12167.aspx and then within a few days was so completely removed from MSDN ...it was like it never existed. Why was all of the documentation for ADO.NET 3.0 removed from MSDN (...in fact, it's odd that this HTML forum continues to exist) Vidya, are you saying the LINQ will be one of the features in ADO.NET 3.0 Has anyone heard when ADO.NET 3.0 will re-appear ...I had hoped that MS would use TechEd to re-release ADO.NET 3.0 Michael. ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Store wav into sql mobile using c#

  Hi, I am developing an application, where i would like to store wave file into sql mobile database using c#2.0. Anybody has the idea, how to do this You could use 'image' data type to store any binary data regardless of it's nature. You would need to load file (does not matter what’s inside) into byte array (e.g. via FileStream class) and pass this byte array to SQL CE. On select you would get it back. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System After adding a new work item / task - project_checklist.xls is not updated with new row

  It does however correctly update an existing task when I simply change the Dicipline. - The newly added task is still not in the spreadsheet.  Something is obviously broken.  The new task does show up in the Work Items REPORT. Using VS05 RC and TFS Beta 3 Never mind - I found it:  In the details the EXIT CRITERIA must be set to Yes or the Project Checklist Query (which is the source for the .xls) does not include the new item.  Its a bit elusive because the filter is buried in the Project Checklist query. ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Switch recognizer languages in InkPicture control in EXCEL?

  I made a Excel 2003 spreadsheet that contains a InkPicture control. I would like it to be able to switch the language so it can recognize Chinese or Japanese handwriting. The code below does only seem to work for English, when using "DEFAULT" as the factoid. I had no luck getting the VB6 examples from the tablet SDK to work in Excel's VBA. From the SDK examples it seems C# is a better language for tablet development, but is it possible to create a CONTROL in C#-Express and then use it in Excel, ActiveX style I read .NET doesn't really support this anymore. What's the way to go for what I'm trying to do ----------- ...Show All

• SQL Server 2005 64 bit : Client Tools for 32 bit.

  We installed 64 bit version of sql server. Now we need to install the client side 'SQL Server Management Studio' on 32 bit box. The 64 bit software does not support for the installation on 32 bit box ... what is the work around for this Thanks KM All client tools in SQL 2005 can be installed on a 64bit system also however (which is different from SQL 2000, where the client tools were not 64bit compatible), so you can install the 64bit client tools on your 64bit machines. As Jeffrey mentioned above however, you do need the 32bit tools to install on your 32bit machines, which you can get from any of the 32bit edition cd's/bui ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Getting Started Is Hard

  [rant] Ok I know I want to learn DirectX and be able to write my own DirectX wrapper in a high level, like Plotting a point would be as simple as calling: ClassName2d.PlotPoint(var,var,var); Then use that to write a 3d game engine including physics, sound, input, networking, graphics etc. Then use the engines to start making games. Now I know that this will take a ton of time to be able to do this, especially for one programmer. Even if my goals are really out there, and probably un attainable for 1 person, I am still finding it VERY hard to get started. I already have experience with making games in "Darkbasic" and using the "DarkGameS ...Show All

  I have a small windows test application that I'm attempting to deploy. I can deploy it to my hard drive, transfer it to a memory stick, and successfully install it on another computer.
