• SQL Server Trouble With Inserting Record into SQL Server 2005 Express via Visual Studio

  I'm hoping someone can help me with inserting records into the DB (SQL Server 2005 Express Edition) for my app.  Below is the code that I used to establish an OK button to insert records into the database.  When the user click on the OK button, a message box opens confirming the user wants to save the changes.  When the user clicks on the "Yes" button in the message box, the record is supposed to save to the database.  The table I'm trying to save to is called "Training" and the corresponding table adapter is called "TrainingTableAdapter2."  The data set is called FIRMDataSet1. I first tried the update command i ...Show All

• Smart Device Development MFC 3.0 and VS2005

  I have an MFC base project (main app , 5 dlls and 3 static libraries and several external (third party ) dlls) that has progressed from PPC 2000 to wm2003 without major problems, until now. I've encountered all of the problems outlined on this forum (and more). Originally all I wanted to do was debug the app to see why it didn't run on WM2005, I then found out that a major rewrite was necessary to just get it to compile , much less link with the third party dlls. While I'm willing (not happy) to make the changes to my application that are necessary to move to WM 2005 , I don't want to have to distribute the MFC/ATL 8.0 dlls to WM2003 devices ...Show All

• SQL Server How to get a row committed

  I have a package loading up rows of employees from an excel file. An employee may be in the file multiple times. The package does a lookup and if not found it inserts the employee. When the employee is found it does an update. So in my file employee A gets added on the first occurrence in the file. On the second occurrence, the lookup does not find the employee and tries to insert a second time and I get a unique constraint. How do I make the first insert Commit so that it is seen by the lookup on the second occurrence. thanks I assume you are using the OLE-DB Destination. Open the component UI, and ensure you have select ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Custom "FxCop" rules in VS 2005 Code Analysis?

  I've written several custom FxCop rules that I want to use with VS2005's Code Analysis engine, but I can't find any way to add-in my custom rules assembly. I know Beta 2 doesn't have all the documentation yet, but can someone tell me how to build a custom rules assembly for VS2005 and get it installed for use in a project Thanks! Hello, Thanks for the reply Michael, that solved my problem. If the xyz.xml file is embedded into a project in the namespace a.b.xyz then "a.b.xyz.xyz" (notice 2 xyz's) needs to be passed into the base class constructor. Thanks, Sunil Chiluveru. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Starter Kit Documentation Pages

  When creating a new project from a starter kit, the starter kit documentation page is displayed when the project is created. After I close VS Express and re-open the project, the documentation page is displayed as HTML source. Is there an option somewhere in the IDE that can force starter kit doc pages to be displayed as rendered HTML and not as source The starter kit documentation is very helpful when creating a project, but decidely less so when displayed as HTML source. Unfortunately there is no way for this to come up again automatically, but you can bring it up yourself by right-cllicking the .html f ...Show All

• Visual C++ Errors when linking Managed C++ DLLs

  I'm getting some strange output when I compile (or more accurately when linking) Managed C++ projects in Visual Studio 2005. I had started with a large project that was converted from the previous .NET (2003/1.1) MC++ syntax. However, I've been able to create the same effect with a few simple steps. So, if I create a new C++ "CLR Empty Project" in VS 2005; add some simple code (example shown below); change the "Configuration Type" to "Dynamic Library (.dll)" and compile I get a bunch of errors when linking (also shown below). Any ideas what this is and more importantly, how to solve it Code Example ...Show All

• Visual Studio Manual creation of msbuild files hard using Microsoft provided schema

  Hi, msbuild appears to be quite a nice tool and a decent replacement for nant. However, some things are a bit weird and/or hard to do. A few things that bother me at the moment are: it's hard/impossible to delete file(s) using wildcards - the "Delete" task will always blindly interpret the contents of "Files" attribute as exact file name; it appears that this could be solved by using "FindUnderFolder" task, but if that's the way to go it is unnecessary (IMHO) complicated "Files" attribute of "Delete" task is supposed to accept an array of Strings, but I am unable to make this work - only one file name is accepted and interpreted corr ...Show All
