• Smart Device Development drawing a target

  Hi, i wrote a program in vb6.net that uses graphics paths to create a target. each ring of the target has a value and by clicking on the target i retrieve the score for that position. my question is how can i draw a circle on top of another circle in cf which does not use graphics paths any ideas would be appreciated cheers Draw your circles one by one, that would create the picture. Click on that picture would give you X/Y coordinates. Next step is to use simple math to determine which circle was hit by determining if this X/Y is within particular radius. Another approach would be to get pixel from that coordinate and see ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Difficulties in testing webservices

  Dear All, I am using vs2005 beta 2. I write a webservice that inherits some class and overrides one of its protected method. Now I want to test the methods written in that web service. By Right Clicking on code and clicking on 'Create Tests' I created a test project that contains test class of that webservice.

Check that Visual Studio Team Test tools are installed on the web server. How can I move forward by removing this error ...Show All

• SQL Server Filter Records returned on report builder based on User LogOn

  Dear Anyone, Is there a way to filter the records returned by a report model in report builder depending on the actual user that is logged on the report If so, how do we go about this Thanks, Joseph Yes, this can be done either by building a regular filter of using security filters.

• Visual Studio Team System NUnit or VSTS Team Test

  Discuss.... We have mstest.exe for running tests from the command line (in case you're not using MSBuild.exe) and we also work with msbuild's "tasks" where you can specify which tests you'd like to run.  These are authored from the UI when you're creating a new "build type" as part of VSTS.

• SQL Server Executing ETL packages programatically from .NET apps

  Is there a way to execute ETL packages programatically Specifically, is it possible to manually invoke the ETL package to execute from, say, an ASP.NET application If so, how do you do that I've been searching MSDN regarding this but all I see are examples on programatically building packages. There are various ways depending on your needs: If you want to execute package in process, using object model - just load and then execute package using Application.LoadPackage and Package.Execute methods. But you'll probably want to start package out-of-process, as this method offers process isolation and thus better reliability. ...Show All

• .NET Development Get the Webservice from my local machine to the production server (I am using Visual Web Developer 2005 express)

    Hello, I finished a webservice-project with several methods on my local System. Now I want to publish it on the production server. My Development Environment is Visual Web Developer 2005. I have read that simply uploading the files ist not the solution (code-behind model). The file "Service.asmx", which points to the real Code (and is - so far as I have read - only from interest for the development environment) contains code as follows (in brackets and percent symbols): @WebService Language="C#" CodeBehind="~/App_Code/Service.cs" Class="Service" All other files, like service.cs and data classes xx ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions What would cause every item in my Form1.vb [Design] to SUPERSIZE?

  What would cause every item in my Form1.vb [Design] to SUPERSIZE I had to go through and change the size and location of every item on the form back to the way I had it! I would suspect that you changed the font on the form. Controls on a form inherit from the form's font setting unless they are explicitly overridden. Controls are sized based on the font setting as well. Jim Wooley http://devauthority.com/blogs/jwooley ...Show All
