• Smart Device Development Device Emulator stopped working after uninstalling Platform Builder

  Hello I am using VS 2005. I was recently working on one problem and had to install evaluation edition of Platform Builder. After I uninstall that, I can no longer use the Device Emulator from VS 2005.

• Visual Studio Tools for Office how to add xml markup to a range

  Could somebody give me some reference links with samples on how to add xml tags to ranges. I need to add those at runtime, have them not show up to the user, and be saved with a document. Is it possible I guess I'm a little unclear as to what you're trying to do here. The simplest way to do what you describe is do use databinding to the ranges I think. If you could describe your problem a bit more I'll be happy to help. Thanks, Ade ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System No effect of "define _CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE 1"

  For the moment I want to suppress all the deprecated insecure functions during static code analysis.  I've added this line in two separate files that get included in all source files: #define _CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE 1 to no effect -- the output still contains warning of these functions.  A colleague has resorted to #pragma to supress these warnings.  I'm curious as to why this doesn't work as documented in the help. Thanks. Sample warning: foo.cpp foo.cpp(18035) : warning C4996: '_wfopen' was declared deprecated c:\program files\microsoft visual studio 8\vc\include\wchar.h(827) : see declaration of '_wfopen' Message: ' ...Show All

• SQL Server Order converted dates in union query

  I have the following as part of a union query: CONVERT(CHAR(8), r.RRDate, 1) AS [Date] I also want to order by date but when I do that it doesn't order correctly because of the conversion to char data type (for example, it puts 6/15/05 before 9/22/04 because it only looks at the first number(s) and not the year). If I try to cast it back to smalldatetime in the order by clause it tells me that ORDER BY items must appear in the select list if the statement contains a UNION operator. I get the same message if I try putting just "r.RRDate" in the ORDER BY clause. It's not that big of a deal - I can lose the formatting on the dat ...Show All

• SQL Server New SQL Express Installation

  I just installed SQL Express in my workstation but when I try to create and ODBC connection, the new server does not show in the drop down. Do you have any tips... Thanks. If you are using down-level clients through MDAC, you'll need to enable TCP/IP in order to connect to SQL Express, even on the local computer. If you're additionally trying to connect from a remote computer, you'll need to consider turning on SQL Browser and open up your Firewall.

• Visual C++ problem in explicit linking of DLL

  I have made a sample Win32 DLL(not MFC) without using .DEF file(I do not have to include a header file thus).To test that i have made a sample application.It loads the DLL using explicit linking(using LoadLibrary() and GetProcAddress()).To make it work I copied the dll to the folder of the exe.Now, the dll is being loaded(the handle returnd by LoadLibrary() is not null).But the GetProcAddress() is returning a null pointer.I have run the dumpbin utility also to check things.It seems to work fine.So no prob in DLL i guess.

• Visual Studio Team System Unit test generation and multiple solutions.

  Hi all, I would really like to separate my development projects from my test projects by putting them in different solutions. The problem with this is that I am not able to automatically generate unit test code as the test project can not be seen by Studio (as it is in a different solution than the current one). Anyone knows a way to solve this issue Thanks, Patrick THere is no way to directly do this. My recommendation would be to generate the tests, and then remove the the test projects from the solutions into the test solutions. ...Show All

• Visual C++ Tips for speeding up debugging (stepping through code)?

  I've got one particular large C++ project that, in VC 2005, when stepping through code in the debugger, it takes approximately 2 seconds for each hit of the F10 key (i.e. each line of code) to be executed. I've tried many things to attempt to speed it up: disable intellisense, renaming feacp.dll, removing all additional output windows, watch, breakpoints, etc, removing navigation bar from text editor window, disabling anti-virus on the machine, closing all other apps. It's always the same speed. Running on a dual P4 2.8 gig with 1 gig of memory, and hyperthreading enabled. Are there any other tips for speeding up debugging in the ...Show All
