• Visual C++ CString char/wchar_t conflict

  I'm encountering a strange issue that I have not seen before. I recently built a new MFC app with VS .Net 2003. I am using the MBCS character set - e.g. UNICODE is not defined. The problem is that when I step into CString code down into the CSimpleStringT level, in atlsimpstr.h, it thinks it has wchar_t traits. However in the CStringT code (in cstringt.h), it thinks it has char traits. So, for example, I step into CStringT::Left() and see char traits, then Left() calls GetLength(), which is defined in atrsimpstr.h. Then when I step into GetLength(), suddenly it thinks it's a wchar_t string and returns 0 as the length. I tried rebuilding from ...Show All

• SQL Server Help with auto printing reports using Report Services

  I'm at a breaking point, so I'm hoping someone can help me! I am new to Microsofts SQL Server suite, and from what I've used so far, I love it... except for the sheer complexity of it. I've only been tinkering for 2 weeks now, so excuse me if I'm a bit ignorant. I'm trying to develop an application, and part of that application is when data is submitted to the database, a report needs to be generated, and automatically printed. I thought that this would be quite easy using SQL 2005, but I've found that isn't the case. Before I continue, let me just say that I NEED the report to automatically print out; I've had a lot of people say to me 'Jus ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Unable to add existing unit tests to a solution

  We are using Visual Studio Team System for Developers. I have created a new solution from a number of existing projects, many of them class libraries and some of them webservices, but also existing projects that contain unit tests for each of the class libraries. In the Test View window, it says "Currently no tests are available to display in test view". I have two options: Create New Test or Open Existing Tests. Create New Tests will create a new solution item (a .vsmdi file) and a new test project - there is no option of creating a new test in an existing project. If I go that route, there is no way that I can see to includ ...Show All

• Smart Device Development .NET Studio 2005 and Windows Mobile for Smartphone 2003 SE

  I have been looking around a bit, and fiddling on Visual Studio 2005 and I have had no success yet. Is there a way to make an application that is solely compatible with Windows Mobile for Smartphone 2003 SE using VB .NET 2005 Just wondering since I know VB .NET 2005 is .NET 2.0 and I think Smartphone 2003SE is .NET 1.0 compatible. Any help on the matter would be greatly appreciated. (had none of these problems of .NET compatibility when I was back using embedded visual tools 3.0 back in the old days ) Yes, by choosing Smart Phone 2003 project type.

• Visual Studio Crystal reports XI R2 and Visual Studio 2005 issues

  Has anyone got this error after updating (fresh install) to Crystal Reports XI R2 with reports in Visual Studio 2005 I am posting here because I am not sure if it is a Crystal reports XI R2 bug or a Visual Studios 2005 problem. I thought it might be that my programming was wrong so I tried the samples that come with R2. If anything these should work since the people who developed the software wrote the examples. Even the examples gave me these same errors.
