• .NET Development Creating a new table in SQL Server from ADO.NET DataTable

  I have some C# code which is dynamically creating a DataTable, using ADO.NET. I would like to be able to create a new table in an SQL Server database, matching the schema of my DataTable object. Is there any ADO.NET functionality that I can leverage to do this Or should I just go to plan B - construct and execute a CREATE TABLE command, using the properties of my DataTable to build the command - seems a bit clunky, with all the flash capability of ADO.NET. Thanks! Nick Tompson You can use SQL Server Management Objects to create tables in SQL Server using SMO. Here is an example I wrote particular ...Show All

• .NET Development Security questions

  Hi! At the moment I’am trying to figure out a concept for my company to create a "secure" client-server application.

• Visual C++ control Parameter info by ctrl+up/ctrl+down

  Unfortunately parameter info now is controlled by simple up/down if there are multiple entries. I'd really prefer if I could switch it back to ctrl+pageup ctrl+pagedown as it was in VS6. I looked for keyboard assignment, but didn't find something suitable. Another downgrade is that parameter info is not displayed anymore when the cursor is on the function name, only if the cursor is between the parameter. Does anyone know how to change this Harald Hi Harald, I haven't found a way to change the shortcut for cycling through the overloads, but given that this is something common to all languages hosted in VS, I think the best place to ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Cannot change TFS from Team Explorer - Team Explorer Bug?

  I've Team Explorer installed on a mobile PC on which I've registered my internal TFS Beta 3 Refresh. Then I've published my TFS to the WAN, the TFS publishing works great, but from outside the LAN, when I try to register my TFS using the public published name, Team Explorer shows  a Messagge box  telling it cannot  find  the  Internal TFS. Of course that it will never find my TFS server using the internal private server name. I just want to tell Team Explorer that now TFS is on another public pubished name, but theres no way to get to the "Connect to Team Foundation Server" form to add the new Server. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Error When Deploying Application

  Hi, When I deploy my win app which includes a reportViewer control I get the following message. Unable to install or run this application. The application requires your system to be updated to Microsoft.ReportViewer.WinForms Version 8.0.0.0. Any idea what this error means Terry, that didn't work for my problem of using a ReportViewer in a webform in local mode at a hosted website.

• .NET Development How to access objects from another thread...

  I modified this example to output to a textbox on a windows form. So instead of Console.WriteLine I used Textbox1.AppendText. Unfortuantely this won't work being that async sockets work in a seperate thread and I get an exception stating the control "textbox1" cannot be accessed from a thread other than the one it was created on. How do I take the data from the receive event and move it to another object created on another thread Interesting, i tried shaka's technique a few month's ago and it didn't work for me.

• Windows Forms Sluggish performance 2005 final release - Us or MS?

  We have a windows application, originally developed in VS 2003, now in VS 2005 final release, using Visual Basic.  It has become painfully sluggish to design in, though the speed when running the app is fine.  My PC is a Pentium 4, 2.5 ghz with one meg ram. I can not tell if the problem is with us and the way we designed the solution, or if it has something to do with Microsoft and Visual Studio as a whole.  I realize that you are capable of having a field day on my ignorance but hope you will resist the temptation. When opening the app it takes 3 minutes before we can actually get anything done. The Solution Explor ...Show All
