• Visual C# a bug in: ArrayList.Add()

  It seems there is a bug in ArrayList.Add(); i have created a loop that adds differents array's (string[]) in ArrayList property. ok, let say i call my ArrayList "something" then this is what happens in my code: if i use: something.Add(Array1); then it adds it normally. if i use it two times: something.Add(Array1); Array1[1] = "another value" something.Add(Array1); then it adds it AND overwrites the old value, so both 'something[0]' and 'something[1]' have the same values. If i use the method 3 times, like: something.Add(Array1); Array1[1] = "another value" something.Add(Array1); Array1[0] = "yet another value" something.Add(Array1); t ...Show All

• SQL Server Importing Tables with Identity properties (uisng Import wizard)

  I am using the Import wizard to import a SQL2000 database to SQL2005 and noticed 2 problems: 1. all tables and views were selected; the tables were imported correctly but the views were created as tables, ignoring the "Create view" syntax. The SQL generated contains "Create table" syntax instead of "Create View". 2. when a table contained a column with an "identity" property, the data was successfully imported, but the values for the "identity" column were not preserved, instead they were resquenced from 1 with an increment of 1 (the default values for an identity). When I opened the &q ...Show All

• Windows Forms Creating an Editable Label

  Need to write a custom control to allow in-place editing, similar to that in a word processor, but user could edit ONLY those underlined (or similar specially marked) words in sentences -- not to allow editing the whole sentence or page. Appearance should look like a hyperlinked label, but not to function as a hyperlink. As the user enters longer text than the original, all the text on the right side of it should shift accrodingly as in a word processor. Expected functionalities are: - By double clicking the underlined (or specially marked) words, user is allowed to edit that particular text. Existing t ...Show All

• Visual Studio Unable to add deployment project to Sourcesafe

  Hi, I am trying to add my solution to Sourcesafe. I am doing this by opening the solution in VS and clicking 'Add solution to source control' at the solution root. It works fine for all of the projects under the solution except the deployment (setup) project. The following error is returned: The project <setup project path> cannot be added to source control. In folder <folder> it overlaps a project that is already bound to source control at a lower root. To avoid this problem, add the project from a location below the binding root of the source controlled projects in the solution. I understand that this error often ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro MSGraph.Chart.8 control

  I need to make charts. I started with MSChart Control and so far I've accomplished almost all I wanted except for one thing which totally eludes me. I need a simple line chart, not columns or a pie. I need to display a row of data like DJIA or similar indices with no additional vertical bars or other embelishments. The curve comes out nice but a lot of space on the chart is wasted because the curve is being plotted too high on the chart in vertical direction. I have tried to manipulate MSChart.Object . Plot . Axis ( VtChAxisIDY , 1 ). ValueScale . Minimum value but it is not responsive at all. I do not know why: perhaps other paramete ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Snapped windows?

  Hello I was wondering if I could "snap" windows on edges. So if I have two windows, then I dragged first to the second window's bottom edge, it will snap together... Then if I move the second window, then the snapped first window will follow. Think of Lego pieces. I've seen some software do this. But I don't know how to make this effect. Does anyone know how to do this Thank You so much! Keehun Nam   Dim FormLoc as point = me.location Al references in windows are to the top lefthand corner.

  How do I compile my code   When I open a file, it won't let me debug or run the file.  And if I manage to get that, as soon as it runs, it just says: Press any key to continue... then it quits.  windows.h is part of the PSDK headers which is not installed with the VC 2005 Express SKU, you will need to install it separately.

• Visual Basic "hello world" won't run

  I am a newbie who just downloaded visual web developer 2005 express on my xp home system.  It installed without errors as far as I can tell.  Is express really stripped-down, and they don't tell you what is missing Like this "hello world" program example:  I can't paste the example page here, Right-click WON'T LET ME! Anyway, the page says "create visual basic console application project".  The closest I could find was a "create text template"  So I pasted the example code on that.  Then it says choose the appropriate "build command".  The choices I get are "build selection" or "build solution".  ...Show All
