• Visual Studio Tools for Office Need help on adding controls dynamically to Outlook.pages (LateBinding)

  Hi All, I'm having tough time figuring out how to add Controls such as textbox, etc as well as dock usercontrols to Outlook.pages. I know that Outlook allows you to add upto five custom forms. This can easily be done using outlook custom form designer but I need to generate it dynamically. I figured out how to add a page to the exiting Outlook.pages object but I don't know how to add controls to them. This is what I have right now.... _contactItem = (Outlook. ContactItem ) this .CreateItem(Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook. OlItemType .olContactItem); _pages = (Outlook. Pages )_contactItem.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages; _pages.Add( ...Show All

• SQL Server Full text indexing question

  All, I am using the standard edition of SQL Server 2005. I have a table I want to put a full text index on but it is greyed out. What are the reasons why it would be greyed out Thx jonp Jonp, Assuming you're using the standard edition of SQL Server 2005 RTM and that the SQL Server FullText Search (msftesql.exe) service is installed and running, there should be no reasong for the "defining full text index" content menu item to be grayed out. Could you post the full output of @@version from the server where this problem exists as well as confirm that the SQL Server FullText Search (msftes ...Show All

• Visual Studio "Start Debugging" vs "Start without Debugging" speed in VS2005

  I experienced extremely slow performance in VS2005, when I "Start Debugging" an application which uses System.Drawing.Bitmap (might be anything that uses interop, but that's just my wild guess). Everything is fast if I "Start withoug Debugging" and it does not matter if I compile a release or a debug version. Please check this little piece of code: namespace ConsoleApplication1 { class Program { static void Main( string [] args) { System.Drawing.Bitmap b = new System.Drawing.Bitmap(1000, 1000); int bla = 0; for ( int x = 0; x < 1000000; ++x) bla = bla + b.Width; } } }   It demonstrates the difference in speed nicely and ...Show All

• SQL Server Merge replication failing after recreating the publication

  I am having a problem with merge replication after recreating a publication. It is a simple two-way replication between two servers allowing applications to update data at both ends, i.e. 1 publisher, 1 subscriber for all tables except some junk ones. The problem started after I did the following: 1) I dropped and recreated the publication to allow for some changes to the database schema. These caused problems so I dropped the subscription and publication and restored the databases at each end from backups taken before we started. 2) When I created the publication again, it wouldn't let me use the same name as it thought the publicatio ...Show All

• .NET Development TCP Server Design Problem

  I am working on a TCP server that needs to be able to handle an average of 500 sustained connections, so having a thread for each client seems a bit crazy.  So I wrote one using Async Sockets, but it is raising a strange exception: "The Undo operation encountered a context that is different from what was applied in the corresponding Set operation. The possible cause is that a context was Set on the thread and not reverted(undone).". Google-ing it came up with only 4 hits, 2 from the same person, none with answers. My SocketConnection code can be seen here , and the TCP Listener class here . Any ideas on whats causing the exce ...Show All
