• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) WBAs and web services

  I have read that WBA applications will not support integration with web services via WCF (Indigo), at least not for release 1. I've seen mention of using ASP.NET-based web services (ASMX) instead, but no references to examples of how to do this. Is anyone aware of a simple example that demonstrates how a WBA can talk to an ASMX-based SOAP web service I dont' have any samples however there is no difference between using ASMX in a WBA and using it in a Windows Forms application - open your project then add web reference etc. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Implementation for IVsMultiViewDocumentView interface for "Design" and "HTML" view

  Hi, [Visual Studio Integration/Extensibility in C# question this] I am looking for a sample implementation for IVsMultiViewDocumentView interface for "Design" and "HTML" view for my custom editor. Even your code instructions would be great, if not a sample. Point me in the right direction. I have an XML file which can be edited/managed using my "Design" view and "XML" view will show the current underlying XML file. I searched msdn forums, groups and so far I don't have a complete picture. To avoid receiving a similer reply, I am adding links (all google search results) here which talk about this, but ...Show All

• SQL Server Passing data between multiple Data Flows

  OK, it's the first of the month...that must mean it's time for another dumb question! I'm trying to "componentize" an SSIS package with multiple Data Flows, and I can't figure out how to get the output of the results from one Data Flow into another. So, for example, at the end of one Data Flow, I have a Recordset destination, and I'm storing that into a variable.  But I can't figure out how to access the contents of that variable in the following Data Flow.  Can this be done, or am I going about this the wrong way What is the scenario you are trying to enable, Artus The first post in this thr ...Show All

• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums Just curious (an Excel VBA question)

  Is it possible to have a userform on an excel workbook add information into the code itself Here is what I am looking at. I have a workbook that has a user form.

• SQL Server Excel Destination Number Conversion Error

  In my SSIS project I am populating an Excel spreadsheet with several worksheets. When I define a worksheet in Excel Destination Editor, I use Create Table SQL statement to create a worksheet. Most of the fields are defined as numbers, however when job runs my numeric fields appear as text in Excel with yellow warning sign - 'The number in this cell is formatted as text or preceeded by an apostrophe'. I need my numbers to appear as numbers. Is there a workaround for this Are you specifying Import Mode by using IMEX=1 in your connection string This forces all data to text.

• Visual C++ Writing a Specific CRC32 Signature on a File

  Just say I know the CRC32 Signature that I want to put on my file but I don't know how to specify it in my code so that when it signs the file it signs it using that specific signature that I specified, like if I open a file called "dune.map" and I know that the signature is supposed to be "DE545GHJ" how would I put that in my code so that when I click "sign" it signs the file using that specific signature, but then I want to open another file called "backwash.map" and I know that the signature for that file is "DDFGSFFG" how would I specify it in the code so that when I want to sign it i ...Show All

  I've got a report model I am trying to move from a development server to a production server.  I published it to my development RS, exported the SMDL file, then uploaded it to the production server.  At that point, I tried assigning the data source to the model and got the error: The value of parameter 'DataSources' is not valid in the browser.

• Visual C++ ActiveX control width and height

  I need to find out the width and the height of an ActiveX control. Once the control is drawn on the screen, getting the size is no problem. However, I need to know the size BEFORE the control is drawn, since I need to create a graphics backbuffer for off-screen drawing. (Ideally, in the constructor or the WM_CREATE message handler.) Theoretically, I would just want the values of the WIDTH and HEIGHT parameters of the HTML <object> tag that instantiates the control. Is there a way to achieve this I tried to get the control's extent using the m_sizeExtent member variable and convert that with the AtlHiMetricToPi ...Show All

   I share common source code with several other projects that compile in Studio 2003, Studio 6.0, Borland, or (gasp) an embedded Green Hills compiler. Is there a #define I can look for so that I can fix all the deprecated CRT functions when I use the code in Studio 2005 (and so I can leave the old unchanged version in place for all the other folks) Something like #ifdef STUDIO_2005     strcpy_s(DestString, sizeof(DestString), SourceString);     errno_t err = fopen_s(&fp, Filename, "r"); #else // for older compilers     strcpy_s(DestString, sizeof(DestString), SourceString);   &n ...Show All
