• Visual Studio Help still broken

  Just installed the release version of VS2005 standard. Alas, F1 help is still broken. If I position the cursor over a word (for example HANDLE) and hit F1, the following happens: 1. If MSDN is set to use local help only, it always displays the topic-not-found page, even though on the left hand side, the topic is not only present, but selected. A single click on the highlighted item displays the correct information. 2. If MSDN is set to use onlin ...Show All

• Windows Forms Help with clunky event handling

  Hi all. I come from a background of many many years of coding in Delphi using ADO to hook into SQL Server. Now I am coding in Visual Studio 2005 using the ADO.NET layer and .NET 2 components and it feels like I have taken 10 steps back. Typically, I used to have all sorts of events raised in my db componets (in Delphi). BeforeInsert, AfterInsert, BeforeDelete, AfterDelete, BeforePost, AfterPost etc... Simple and easy to use. How do I acces ...Show All

The way I test now is to bring up IE and then I have 10 minutes of testing     before the connection shuts down, ...Show All

• Visual J# Opening/Selecting Editors

  Hello, I am having a bit of trouble with what might be a fairly simple task. I am looking to open a rather large (12k lines/ 5M) log file. I was unable to simply insert it within my form in a rich text box ( it just hung). I decided what might be better would be allowing the user to open the file with whichever editor they prefer (WordPad,ConText,ect...) I was unable however to find a way of launching an application (and having it open the ...Show All

  I have an Access Query named "TestQuery".  The Query selects users with "678".  Condition is: Phone LIKE "678*". Any time the dataset that is used by GridView1 is assigned to "TestQuery" it doesn't return any records. (Even though in Access it does).
