• .NET Development How to send and receive xml data via HttpWebRequest/HttpWebResponse in windows forms applications.

  I am having hard time to post xml data to my web site (or to aspx page) which is running on IIS server. I am trying to post the xml string from windows form application. I am using “HttpWebRequest” class and reading the response using “HttpWebResponse”.

• Visual C# Access Web Form member from it’s hosted windows user control

  Hi. I have a web app that uses a IE hosted windows user control. I would like that, somehow, lounch an external event from that hosted control that I could catch in my web form’s code behind or set a web form’s member value.

It needs to be visible to COM, so use the following as a template: [GuidAttribute("1F98211C-7A71-4588-8D4A-AD85CA80BAE7&q ...Show All

• SQL Server Graph Creation Question

  I am trying to port an entire report generation "system" from Excel to Reporting Services. There are a couple of graphs that I am having trouble setting up in Reporting Services. In particular I am trying to generate a stacked bar graph with 2 groups of stacks that are set directly next to each other.

• SQL Server Keeptogether Textfields is absurd

  Is there ANY way to definitely disable keeptogether for textfields I have two textfields side by side in a rect in the detail-area of a table. If one of the textarea contains a certain amount of text it is completely rendered on the next page.

Please give me a reply, I am going crazy with that keeptogether-stuff.. Will this be fixed in SP1 Best regards’ Benjamin ...Show All

• Visual C# Reading large .csv file loading is very slow.

  First let me state that I am very new to C#. I learned C++ in college but that was in 99 and have been coding mainly mainframe since then. So I am kind of new to the .Net platform as well. The problem that I am having is when I am loading in a .csv file it is taking a long time before the user can do anything because the program is busy loading my data into my array. Is there a better way for me to do a read then using StreamReader. Here is a snipet of code where I am doing the load. Any help would be greatly appreciated.   private void openFileDialog1_FileOk( object sender, System.ComponentModel.CancelEventArgs e) { st ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Issue with playing back Web Requests with Body set to XML (Querystring parameters fail also) fails

  I had to use Fiddler to record my scripts because Visual Studio didn't support recording ActiveX controls. Fiddler was placing query string parameters in the webtest file it creates in the StringBody element which loads into the Web Test Request Body property through an StringHTTPBody object in Visual Studio.  When this was executed the HTTP response code was successful (200) but the response XML told us the query string parameters where not passed correctly because it could not find a value from one of them.  Also I noticed there were 3 extra characters sent over in the request body: EF  BB  BF.  To fix this I ...Show All

• SQL Server Formatting the date on report

  Reporting Services 2005 (SQL Server 2005 CTP V 9.00.1187.00) I have a date field and I want to format it on a report like: January 9, 2006 Seems to me that should be pretty simple.  But I can't find the correct format code.  If I look at the textbox properties and go to the format tab, there is an option for Date, but there are only 3 choices: 1/9/2006 9:47 AM Monday, January 9, 2006 1/9/2006 If I choose custom I found that Y gives me: January 2006 and M gives me: January 09 This is rather frustrating.  I'm sure I could modify my source SQL to get each part of the date and past it together ...Show All

• SQL Server Bug or Feature?

    When upgrading a database from MSDE to Visual Studio 2005 Express, I've noticed that the system tables in the MSDB database don't get upgraded.  For example, the SYSSCHEDULES table doesn't get added.  Is this by design or a bug -Doug I did find a fix to this problem.

  I am working with Dark Basic Professional and want to check out XNA. I have visual studio.net I can't find if XNA will work with VS.NET or if I will be forced to upgrade to VS 2005.  Knowing Microsoft they will use XNA to drive sales of every new version of visual studio that gets released.
