• Visual C# C#'s answer to VB .NET's Inputbox?

  Hey howzit I am a VB programmer who is now learning C#, to my surprize there is no such thing as an inputbox in C#, is this correct, if yes, what should I use. Could you perhaps give me a code sample. Many Thanks! David I'm aware of no such thing.. Well, I've been only using C# for half a year, I may be wrong. But I never wanted to use something so limited like an inputbox. If you really want something like that, why not make one yourself - it's not that hard to do. You'd have much more control over the appearance and behaviour. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Missing references and the GAC

  When I run fxcop on a .dll that contains some NUnit tests and links against nunit.framework.dll, which is in the GAC, I get a missing reference to nunit.framework.dll. Running fxcopcmd with /searchgac doesn't make any difference. I'm using version 1.35.60331.0. Also, is there a way to ignore missing references with fxcopcmd like you can in the GUI without using a project file Hi Brad, when you use the /searchgac switch, FxCop should call out to the fusion API to retrieve the assembly from the GAC. Can you use the steps on http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/e74a18c4.aspx to use the fuslogvw to see i ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Windows sample and Kerberos

  Hi, I successfully worked through message security windows sample. The web.config file contains following: <binding name="Binding1"> <security mode="Message"> <message clientCredentialType="Windows"/> </security> </binding> Since the document says that if message/@clientCredentialType is Windows and message/@negotiateServiceCredential is set to false, the Kerberos security is used (and the requirement was that both client and server machines belong to same domain). Now I am only experimeting on one machine which has the AD setup. The logged in user is the domain ad ...Show All

• SQL Server Type 1 Dimension Insert/Update

  Hi I'm trying to put together a integration package that loads in type 1 dimensional data. If the item is new then the data is inserted if it already exists then it is overwritten. My approach has been to use the lookup operator to match the source values against a generic mappings table. The data that is matched goes off into the error flow and is inserted as new rows in the dimension table. The matched lookup rows are sent through into an update operator. the problem comes when there are no new rows for the lookup operator to find it still want to do the inserts and so exits with an error code. I tried to change the data flow so that ...Show All

• Windows Forms PropertyGrid Invalid Property Value

  Hi All, In my custom form designer, I have a property grid. I am having a problem while selecting multiple (>1) controls to change their common property. For example, if I select 2 labels at the same time, and change the size of them, I will get an error message saying "Invalid Property Value", and the details show "Specified cast is not valid." The property then got changed. But when I select only one control to change its property, it's fine. I can't debug where the error occurs. Really frustrated. Any idea Thanks a lot. Some properties are not "mergable", but the p ...Show All

• Visual C# How to pass a variable from a form to a user control

  Using VS 2005 c# I have a windows form and an assigned variable (string name = "test";) I have on this form a user control - i want to access the form1.name Can anyone show me how to do this - thanks in advance. All controls derived from Control should inherit (or override) a function called FindForm() that returns the form the control is on. The return type is 'Form' but you know your form is of type Form1 so you should be able to cast the result into the appropriate type. Form1 f = FindForm() as Form1 ; Console .WriteLine(f.name); ...Show All

  Hi, I'm building a card games windows forms app that will allow users to get together and play over the Internet. I would to like to include chat too. I prefer a smart client with auto update and SQL Server as back-end.
