• Windows Forms memory leak in datagrid binding and unexpected behaviours

  I am using visual studio .net 2003 to create my vb.net win application. I noticed that when I add a table style to a datagrid’s table styles collection as below: DataGrid1.TableStyles.Clear() DataGrid1.TableStyles.Add(tableStyle) The datagrid1.controls collection keeps growing because there are datagridtextbox controls contained in DataGridTextBoxColumns object. This will cause memory leak. Do I need to handle this situation explicitly Also, I might need to add datagridtextbox control in datagridtextboxcolumn to form’s controls collection t o make events happended to those datagridtextbox controls also can be catched by parent ...Show All

  Every time I try to download the CursorMania it says you do not have ACTIVEX. Please help me. Per our support engineer: You need to allow the browser to download the ActiveX control.

• SQL Server ASP.Net Session has expired

  I created an app that uses the viewer supplied by Microsoft for 2005 SSRS. All works fine on staging machines and in production IF you open link to the app in a new window, but not when in frame container within existing site. Although if you do open in new window, then try to open in frame, it will work fine. What makes the production server different is that my viewer app is on a different machine, if run from local instance of reporting services, again all works fine. I have tried creating a forwarding page, which simple sets a bogus session value, then transfers to actual page with viewer control, that didn't help. The base ap ...Show All

• Visual C# break point not hitting in a particular form

• Software Development for Windows Vista Accessing DHCP Lease Table Remotely

  What we are actually looking to do is to have our program reach out onto the network and communicate with an electronic device we have manufactured. What we are looking for is to take a known Mac Address and find out the device's Dynamically Assigned IP Address. We would like to do this with minimal End User input. We know that every DHCP network has a DHCP server, and every DHCP server has a lease table. Every DHCP Lease table has a correlation of Mac to IP. We want to be able to access the information in the DHCP Lease Table without shutting down services. The Microsoft DHCP management console can do this, and the W2K3 admin pack (in ...Show All

  Hi all I have a wrapper to a driver and it is being used by multiple applications. Can somebody advise me what would be a standard design for a C# wrapper a .cs file or a shared dll. Thanks in advance Both ways have advantages and disadvantages. If you’re planning to share library, you can ship if with, say, new version of a driver so your applications can be updated without any changes. You might save some space as well. However, you would need to strong name sign that library and GAC it. Also it would expose your driver as its all public. Sharing source file makes it harder to upd ...Show All
