• Visual C# Published VC# 'setup.exe' fails.

  My project runs with no errors when started from the IDE with or without debug. I am publishing it to the desktop, and is intended to run from cd, with no upgrades. It publishes with no errors, however, when I execute 'setup.exe ' I get the following error message: "project name" has encountered a problem and has to close. publish to another folder, not the desktop. see if that helps. It also looks like your project does not have a name, you should name it something useful so your users know what it is (once you get it working). mcm ...Show All

• SQL Server replication system stored procedures parameter defaults ?

  Hi there This is a pretty straight forward question. When using sp_droparticle or sp_changepublication etc, basically any replication system stored procedure. There are many parameters for these sp's basically all i want to know is if i provide the relavant paramaters,that is publication name, subscriber name , specific parameter i wish to change etc, are all the other paramters defaulted to the current publication/subscriber properties. In other words sometimes i really dont know what to provide for all the parameters i am pretty sure as long as i provide the necessary ones the other ones are defaulted correctly, BOL is not 100% clear on al ...Show All

• .NET Development Problem with portmapper to localport 3389

  Hi,   I've made a portmapper in VB.NET that listens on localhost port 5100 (on PC1). If a connection has been established it sends all incoming data to 127.0.0.2 port 3389 (RDP port) and all data comming back from 3389 is send back to the other side (PC2). If i use 'Remote Desktop' (mstsc.exe) on PC2 and connect to port 5100 on PC1 i get the Windows logon screen from PC2.   This means the portmapper actually works untill now. BUT when i login on the RDP session (enter username + password -> OK), PC1 freezes (black sreen) and after 30 seconds i get a timeout on the 'Remote Desktop' client on PC2. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Support for WSS Form Libraries in Team Explorer

  Hello - the Team Explorer seems to only list WSS "Document Libraries" under the "Documents" node. Is there a way to get TFS to display "Form Libraries" as well. I would like to use Infopath Forms in my TFS project documentation. TIA, Cheers, Adam. Hi Adam, The Team Explorer only only supports document libraries at this point. I don't know if there are plans to extend this in a later version, but it's something that we will look into. -Dennis ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Required software to install on Web Server for VSTO?

  Greetings, I know there are a number of posts that discuss deployment issues, but I was not able to find one that explicitly addresses this question. It is stated in the Microsoft Documentation that there are a number of required software prerequisites (.net 2.0, vsto runtime, interop, etc) that the end-user machine needs to run a VSTO 2005 application (regardless of whether it was deployed locally or through network). My question does not pertain to the end user but rather the server, assuming a pure network based model, where the end user is accessing a web server. So my question is: Are there any software prerequisites that are required ...Show All

• .NET Development Bool write with Interlocked ? (dispose pattern)

  In my application I frequently encounter situation where I would like to use the Interlocked class with bool objects. The most common case that I am encountering is the IDisposable implementation. As pointed out, Dispose is not threadsafe . Therefore, the common dispose implementation pattern is public void Dispose() {     lock (disposeLock)     {        if (!isDisposed)        {           isDisposed = true ;           // snipped        }     } } & ...Show All

• Visual C# Typedef-equivalent in C#?

  I pass integer IDs to a variety of functions. I want to create a type for each ID so the compiler can check I am passing the right type. In C I would do this with typedefs. E.g.: typedef int personID; typedef int addressID; void DoSomething(personID p, addressID a) { ... } How can I do this in C# Creating an entire class seems like a lot of overhead. Truthfully, wrapping primitive types just to reimplement the same functionality IMHO would be a waste of time. However, if you still want to go ahead with this, then you can overload operators to enable this. Although it is valid to overload opera ...Show All

• Windows Forms How to resize controls on my windows form with changing form size

  Hi, In my windows form I have a tab control with a few tab pages. Each tab page has some user controls and some .net controls such as datagrid, labels e.t.c When I resize the windows forms the controls dont change their size and position. So if I reduce the size of window it hides half of the controls on my application. How do I make my application or controls such that they relocate and resize themselves when size of the window changes. Thanks, You have to DOCK them on your form to top, bottom, or center depending on ur requirement. ...Show All

• Windows Forms Keyboard input in Form

  I'd like a Form to handle keyboard input.  However, I do not want it to clash with other controls that use keyboard input, such as ComboBox, PropertyGrid, etc. Is there a way I can find the Control that has the keyboard focus and query it to see if it (is one of the known ) text entry Controls.  This way I could prevent multiple controls from handling the same input.  This particular application needs global level input due to its UI requirements. If there is a better way to handle input at the form level, please comment also. Thank you once again for your input (pun not intended).  I hav ...Show All
