• SQL Server Failure to run when using DTC

  Does anyone hany any experience of using SSIS with MS DTC I have a package that runs successfully. When I switch it to using transactions (i.e. TransactionOption= Required ) it fails. I get the following messages in the log: -Starting distributed transaction for this container.  -Failed to acquire connection " <connection-manager-name> ". Connection may not be configured correctly or you may not have the right permissions on this connection.  -Aborting the current distributed transaction.  So - it seems it is having trouble enlisting that connection manager in a distributed transaction.

• .NET Development Generic types and the property grid

  Hi, I'm struggling with generic data types and the display of properties of that type in the property grid (C#, VS 2005). My requirement is to have certain properties which can either get a constant value at design time, or, alternatively, a "rule" assigned to them (basically a declarative expression) which will be evaluated at run-time and set the property value. However, I want to avoid creating appropriate rule-bearing types for every required base type (e.g. RuledBool, RuledInt, RuledString etc.) So I created a generic class RuledType<T> which holds a reference to the rule, along with a type conversion operator for the t ...Show All

• Visual C# Using a C# dll in VB6

  Hi, I would like to know if it is possible to use a dll that has been created in C#, in Visual Basic 6.0. If so it would be great if you could let me know how I can make this possible. Thanks & Regards, Frenz Yep! it's possible... You just have to create your C# class and compile it to a dll, then use regasm.exe for assembly registration and typelib generation... regasm YourAssembly.dll /tlb:YourAssembly.tlb This command makes the appropriate registry entries and generates a typelib (.tlb) from the .NET assembly so that it can be referenced from VB 6 and just use the referenced library just as y ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Tiny app consumes lots of RAM

  I just created a small app for my contacts and it uses a small database with one table and single Windows Form. IN the Vb IDE, all I did was a simple drag and drop from the data sources panel onto the form. I let the ide create the controls, on the form, to interact with the database. Other then the binding navigator, no other controls are used. No menus......nothing. I compiled and published the project and installed it on my pc and ran it. I was surprised when I looked in task manager and saw that it was consuming 29 megs of ram. That seems really high for an app so small. Especially when VB Express (as big as the app is) was shown as ...Show All

• Visual C# Readonly attribute

  How to remove the readonly attribute in a project code file display The more information you give in your question, the easier it is for people to answer it , so if you could be a little more specific If your problem is that you can't edit a file in Visual Studio because it says it's read-only, that's on the file level, so right click on the file in solution explorer, select 'Properties'. Under 'Full Path' in the properties window you'll see the path to the file. Open windows explorer and go to where the file is on disk, right-click on the file and select 'Properties'.

• Visual Studio Team System How can I make VS understand that a project is a test project?

  I have a project that was not created as a test project. But it was running tests in a very unit test like way, so I added using Microsoft.VisualStudio.TestTools.UnitTesting; to each source file along with the apropos [Test*] attributes so that I could run the unit tests from VS. However, VS doesn't recognize the tests. If I choose Test.Windows.TestView, my tests are not showing up there.

• Visual C# ListViewItem checked status change

  All I need to do is enable a few buttons whenever at least one item in my ListView is checked. I tried using ItemCheck event but it seems to execute my code before it actually changes the Checked property of the item I change. That might be just fine if it weren't that if I have a ListView with only one item in, and that item is checked, trying to uncheck it results in enabling of those buttons too, when I really want them to be disabled. Question is, what event and what kind of code do I need to exploit The ItemCheckEventArgs contains both the old and new check state values.  Use the NewValue property ...Show All
