• Visual Basic COM Interop, Property Get,Let,Set Interface Attribute?

  Hello, We are in the middle of a rather large piecemeal upgrade of our VB6 system to .NET 2.0.  We started in 1.1 and have sence migrated that code to 2.0.  We have done a few of our libraries to this point, and are gearing up to upgrade a lot more of them in the next month or so.  We ran into a problem in our first library that required a rather nasty fix and I was hoping someone could point us to a better solution. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Paging in toolbar off-by-one

  I'm using the ReportViewer control in a WinForms project, using Local processing mode.  On the report itself, it always correctly shows the current page and total number of pages in the report using Globals!PageNumber and Globals!TotalPages.  However, in the toolbar page navigator, the total number of pages is always initially shown as one less than the actual number of total pages.

• Visual Studio Team System Coexistence of VSS and TFS

  Hi, Could you please confirm if co-existence of both TFS and VSS is possible and there is no impact on each other.

However, when I try to do the same thing in C# with Managed DirectX, it doesn't work. I am not sure if the issue is on the C# (.Net) side or with the Managed DirectX code.
