• Visual C# Application.ProductVersion

  Hi I am trying to display productversion in my winform application What i want is to display version information as major.minor.build (1.0.14).  Everytime I recompile I want build to increase by one / or when something changes in the code base and recompile - do not mind which. I have looked at AssemblyVersion and AssemblyFileVersion and have set those as 1.0.* however it seems to have no effect on application.ProductVersion. All I get with productversion is 1.0.2131.56354 - does not seem to make a difference what I do but this number stays the same.  I have tried this with a simple hello world app. I am sure I am doing something s ...Show All

• Windows Forms Very strange ComboBox databinding problem

  Hi, this problem really drives me nuts. I have a custom ComboBox, which derives from the normal ComboBox control. I'm setting the DataSource of the ComboBox in my code to a DataTable and also set DisplayMember and ValueMember. So, the binding in general works fine, but here's the odd part: Depending on what is selected I color the background of the ComboBox differently. To achieve this effect when the DataSource changed i overwrite the OnDataSourceChanged method:             protected override void OnDataSourceChanged(EventArgs e)         {   ...Show All

  CPU Utiliization reaches 100% when using ExcelPivot Table to browse AS 2005 Cube. Only one user is using the cube. Its a single CPU with SQL Server running on the same box. Is there any configuration parameters I should be changing Thanks Selva Hi Selva, This is nothing to do with your question.  But I was wondering if you have been able to drill down hierarchy levels from your cube in your excel pivot table   Because I can't.  Have you tried that.  Also, I will say, that I had similar issue browsing a cube from the pivot table, but I had to filter my pivot table, so I wouldn't be pulling so many rows (3 million).&n ...Show All

  I'll be getting my copy of vs 2005 this week and had a question about EnableVisualStyles and how that will work. I just recently learned about enablevisualstyles and have started to apply this to my app. However, vs 2005 has this turned on by defualt and draws the controls to correctly include this be default. Does anyone know what happens to visual styles when bringing an app from vb.net 2003 into vs 2005 I'm hoping that it will apply the correct visual style settings automatically, however I'm a bit optimistic about this. I have a copy of my app that does not have any of the visual style stuff turned on so maybe this one would work bett ...Show All
