• Visual C# smart card application in visual C# 2005

  Hello I started building an application which connects to an ORGA smart card reader to read the data stored in specific files with specific access rights, controlled with a PIN code. I found some tutorials on how to use the winscard api to conect to the smart card reader and I succeded connecting to it. I need a tutorial that goes a little bit further on this topic, in how to acces the files on the smart card reader, their content, how to change the PIN code and so forth. If you know anything about this or you can point for a link, or you have a document about this, please post a message here. Thank you for your help in advance! P.S ...Show All

• Visual Studio Another thead about VSS 2005 Internet Access

  I have the same issue described on http://forums.microsoft.com /msdn/ShowPost.aspx PostID =2774 . I have done all the steps I could find describe on the thread and online instructions and yet in IIS 6.0 under the SourceSafe application I see only the bin directory.  It is not providing an error in event log or any other place I know of, yet the virtual directories are not created for vssupload and vssdownload.  However if I run the VSS 2005 on IIS 5.1 on XP Pro Service Pack 2 the virtual directories are create just fine!  I also ran the December CTP on Windows Server 2003 and it worked.  The only difference I can& ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System SetLocaleForDataTypes

  I have found one variable in our code where it does not seem to want to set the locale. We have the following in the class itself rather than in a method in the class private DataTable Res = new DataTable ( "Results" ); What I would like to do is immediatly after that line in the class set the Locale ie Res.Locale = CultureInfo.InvarientCulture; Visual studio does not seem to allow this. I have tried to add the above line into methods where Res is used, while Visual Studio allows the line to be added doing so does not get rid of the item from FxCop. Does anyone have any suggestions   ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office VSTO 2005 Outlook Add-in - trying to understand security

  I'm developing an Outlook add-in that is supposed to run unattended and I'm having a difficult time determining the full story on the object model guard popups. I've been given the statement (by someone as MS) that an option is to: "Build and deploy your solution as a trusted in-process COM add-in to outlook. Signed and trusted components running within Outlook’s process do not prompt. Visual Studio 2005 has support for such components" I've granted my DLL FullTrust permission and have signed it but I still get the popups. It's the Exchange Server administrator that actually has to "trust" an add-in - isn't t ...Show All

• SQL Server Migrating SqlServer2000->2005 and classic ADO: problem with AddNew to recordset, related to adFldUnknownUpdatable attribute?

  The application is running ADO (MDAC) version 2.81.1117.0. The application gets an recordset created by SQLServer by an select statement. In this case the recordset is empty. The application adds a record to the recordset by AddNew(). Works fine. But when assigning the first field (smalldatetime in database) I get ADO error -2147217887. I have inspected the recordset and I found a difference between the working one from SQLServer2000 and the new one from SQLServer2005: The Attributes item for the fields in the recordset has the flag adFldUnknownUpdatable set in the working SQL2000 version but is not set from SQL2005. The database ...Show All

• Visual C# make drawing appear on tab control

  I drew some shape that i would like it to appear on the top of the tab control. Right it's just draw on to the form "behind" the tab. how should i do that thanks Hi, If I understood the question correctly - a shape that you added over a tab control on a windows form, gets hidden behind the tab when you run the application. To solve this issue, open the form in design mode. Place cursor over the tab control and click the right mouse button. On the context menu, select the option "send to back" This will bring the share behind the tab control to the front ...Show All
