• Visual Basic Add New Data Source for My SQL doesn't work

  I have tried also installing and using the ODBC driver version 3.51 and the My SQL driver 3.1.8.  None of these work. What do I have to do to add a new MY SQL data source Michael I was told by two different Microsoft employees that Visual Studio 2005 Express Edition was the right version of Visual Studio 2005 for me to use for all of my needs including access to ODBC and MySQL data. They emailed me a link with a comparison of all of the different variations and features of the different versions of Visual Studio 2005.  I am trying to remember now, but I think it included a chart with bullets or check marks and comment ...Show All

• Visual Basic Loops

  Hello, I am trying to create a program that generates the fibonacci series numbers between 2 and 1,000,000,000 (1 billion). The user enters in an number in to a textbox (between 2 and 1 billion), and the program then outputs the Fibonacci series up to that number in a list. The program is also supposed to output the number of numbers found up to that specific number and the sum of all those numbers found. It would be easy if the task was to, lets say generate odd numbers up to a specific number. You would just use a loop and keep on adding "2" until you get up to that number or 1 less than that number. But I can not figure out how would ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Using context variables from one webtest into another webtest

  Is it possible to use a context variable from one webtest in another webtest I realize context variables, when extracted, are scoped for just that webtest. Is there a way around this If so, please explain in detail how to do this. Thank you! I was able to accomplish this by using a 'master' webtest to call several other (calling and called webtests must be coded) webtests. Nothing needs to be done to the webtests being called. Here is an example of what needs to be done in the 'master' or calling webtest: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=433653&SiteID=1 . Then to pass the context, ...Show All

• Visual Studio Load a new source control plugin error

  Hi Gurus, I am writing a source control plugin(add-in) for vs.net 2003. This add-in works fine when I put all dlls at the local machine that vs.net is installed on.

• Visual Studio i want to use domain/user to login into vss 6.0d

   i want to use domain/user existing on the server where vss is installed. where can i configure it Hi Artur, When you create VSS users to match domain/user accounts you can assign random passwords to them, too (there's no need to have empty passwords). When you're using "Use network name for automatic user log in" VSS will not prompt users to enter their passwords. Setting some random passwords will make it less likely that users will be able to use other users' VSS names when opening the VSS database.

• Visual Studio Express Editions Searching for Text

  How can I search for Text in TextBox or in Rich TextBox like that Find button in notepad and Wordpad Please help in this and tell me if it just code or if there is a tool to do that. Thanks. Use the 'Contains' or the 'IndexOf' methods of the Text property of the textbox or rich textbox to search for strings. 'Contains' will return a boolean value indicating whether a string contains a particular substring. 'IndexOf' is more versatile & returns the index of the substring. ...Show All

• Windows Forms RichTextBox does not resize inside TableLayoutPanel Cell

  Hey all, having a very strange issue with a RichTextBox where its not resizing when the form is resized with its Dock property set to Fill. The RTB sits inside a cell of a TableLayoutPanel which is also set to Fill (as are all other parent objects). The RTB sizes correct when it is first drawn and then doesn't size again after that. I've compared this to existing VB code (with a RTB in a SplitContainer) and its just not working. pStep2.BackColor = Color .FromArgb(0, Color .White); pStep2.Dock = DockStyle .Fill; pStep2.Padding = new Padding (10); pStep2.ColumnCount = 3; pStep2.RowCount = 4; pStep2.ColumnStyles ...Show All
