• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums VB Script Crashes Access When Exporting to Excel

  I am trying to solve a minor problem for a small school running Access 2000 on a network. The program runs well with several forms and reports. The problem is that one of the reports is exported to Excel. This works fine except when the database is moved off the network, the export process either produces an error message or crashes Access. The database filename is AA92603.MDB. When it is copied to the C: drive on a computer off the network, the export process produces a message box stating: Run-Time Error ‘-2147467259(80004005) ‘H:\Applications\AA92603.MDB’ is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is sp ...Show All

• Windows Forms Autoscroll

  When I use AutoScroll, scrollbars never show up if the controls are outside of the container to the left or top of it, only to the right or bottom. How do I fix this Yes you can access autoscrollbars by using p/invokes to the Windows Shell functions. Check this link: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp url=/library/en-us/shellcc/platform/commctls/scrollbars/scrollbarreference/scrollbarfunctions/setscrollinfo.asp But this is not something you need to do know. Still you might want to check my post on richtextbox & autoscrollbars to see a sample on how it works: http://forums.microsof ...Show All

• Visual C++ Browsing in global objects

  I need to create an application that will simulate the operation of a larger, native application for the purpose of creating a managed application that will communicate with it. Anyway, I have started a Windows Forms project and I need to add an unmanaged class to it. I could not instantiate an unmanaged class within a managed class (the compiler gave me an error) so I created a global instance. So far the problem with that is that when debugging I cannot browse the unmanaged instance - the watch thinks the object is out of scope. Is there any way around that Thanks! Kamen Maybe I am not being very clear. Let me provide some code. ...Show All

• SQL Server XML Datatype Usage & Performance

  I'm interested in hearing any feedback on the following idea for utilizing the XML datatype in SQL 2005. I am building a customer profiling engine for use by multiple clients. The database is shared. Clients do not have their own seperate databases or schema's. The purpose of the system is to store, record, and transmit customer profile information. Such information would likely include attributes such as: name, email, phone, various demographic attributes. The system has to accomodate different profile attribute requirements across different clients. For example, a valid profile for one client may be nothing more than a unique id and an add ...Show All

However, when the Forms application starts, it attempts to instantiate the const string in the native library and a _CrtIsValidHeapPointer assertion fails.
