• Visual Basic problem with Net Framwork Optimization

  I was working on a project using vb.net express and all of a sudden my cursor started blinking. I went into task manager and I noted that mscorsvw.exe was appearing then disappearing. I did some research on the web and it was recommended that I disable the Net Framework Optimization service which I did and it corrected the problem. However, in vb.net express I can't create any new projects. Any solutions. My OS is Windows XP service pack 2 ...Show All

• Windows Forms Problems while navigating with a DataGridView

  I'm having trouble with a the behavior on a form I'm creating to edit a simple table in a Dataset. The form has a BindingNavigator at the top to which I've added a few comboboxes so the user can specify filters on a few key columns of the table. Right below the BindingNavigator is a DataGridView that shows several rows of the table (the filter columns as well as a few others). The grid is bound to a BindingSource that is itself bound to the specific table in the Dataset. And the rest of the form (the "details section") contains ALL the fields from the table. Essentially, about 25 textboxes (across a TabControl) where each Tex ...Show All

• Windows Forms Background image resources cause VS error

  I have a few buttons on a Windows Form that I am applying an image to (or a background image). Things look fine in the designer, until I close the tab for that Form or leave it and come back. Then I get the following error message and I cannot view the Form in the designer: One or more errors encountered while loading the designer. The errors are listed below. Some errors can be fixed by rebuilding your project, while others may require code changes. The designer then proceeds to give me an error for every image resource, along the lines of: MyProject.Properties.Resources has no property named ImageName Any idea what's wrong with ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Distorted texture after lost/reset device

  Hi, I'm drawing a textured mesh using DrawIndexedPrimitive, using an effect interface. After a windowed/full screen toggle the texture appears distorted. Interestingly when I draw another mesh in wireframe mode in the same render call the problem doesn't occur. Can somebody help Nico Depending on where you load the textures to, you need to release them and recreate them. Make sure that you are properly handling them. Look at the Samples in the DirectX SDK install directory and also under lost devices in the documentation. It explains clearly how you must handle a lost device and how to reset it. I hope thi ...Show All

• .NET Development Copy schema from data table to data source?

  DataAdaptor.FillSchema is handy for creating a data table and configuring it to match the schema of an existing table in a data source. But I need to do just the opposite. I have a table that I create progamatically. I create a new SQL database using t-SQL CREATE DATABASE. I want to add a new table to the database with schema matching that of my existing table. I can do it rather laboriously with t-SQL, but some sort of "DataAdaptor.SetSchema" would be a lot easier. Does such a thing exist Thanks, --Mable ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Not authorized to view page

  I followed the installation for workgroup on a single server on a brand new server and get the error: "Not authorized to view page - HTTP Error 403" when attempting to browse http://server:8080 . I checked the forums without any useful insights. In WSS adminstration I see that the Team Foundation Site is not extended. I thought TFS extends the site - the reason for not provisioning WSS during install. NTLM authentication is on the server. SQL Reporting services is working. I see the TFS entries in Windows Firewall. Any troubleshooting assistance will be greatly appreciated. I see several other people had a similar problem, but n ...Show All
