• Visual Basic Vb2005 - ReleaseCapture

  Might anyone have working VB2005 code for ReleaseCapture After a lot of playing with this and looking at many different methods, I decided that following would work best for me. I did not use the vb2005 cursor.position because it's a shared method and requires a lot of agony. As much as I dislike it I resorted to an API routine GetCursorPos and a keydown sampling interval of 20 milliseconds. It works very well. For those of you familiar with api programming there are a couple of important notes here: 1.) The PointAPI structure has been redefined 2.) GetCursorPos returns an integer instead of a long. No Marshalling is required. Impo ...Show All

• SQL Server SQLServer Express 2005 and VS.NET 2003

  I would really like to be using SQLServer Express 2005 for some desktop database applications and replace MSDE. However, I am using VS.NET 2003 and so far I have not been able to discover if that combination will work. Thanks, Sid. Yes that will sure work. You can use the ADO 1.1 provider like you did before. If you want to use on of the new features like MARS, you have to use the SNAC client. If not, you should be fine will the old-fashioned provider.

• .NET Development server objects in web services

• Windows Forms How to set the tab order of columns w/in a DatagridView control

  How do you set the tab order for columns in a datagridview VS2005 B2 Columns in a DataGridView do not have tab order. Tabbing goes to the next column and at the end of the grid it wraps to the next row, first column.

• Visual C# Copy of a class

  Hi, i want to do a value copy of a class. Have i to implement my own valuy copy method or exists any method in c# that does it for me Thanks You can implement ICloneable interface. In the ICloneable.Clone Method implementation create new instance of class and fill it's fields equal to current instance fields. From MSDN: Clone can be implemented either as a deep copy or a shallow copy. In a deep copy, all objects are duplicated; whereas, in a shallow copy, only the top-level objects are duplicated and the lower levels contain references. You can decide what copy algorithm you need. ...Show All

• Visual Studio MS Access and VSS 2005

• Smart Device Development library with events that throws events

  So I think this is more of a general .NET question, but since it's for a compact product I figured I'd ask it here. I'm developing an app that will support multiple types of barcode scanners. I would like to modularize the bar code scanning so that I can have a single interface that is used and is just implemented differently for each piece of hardware. The key is that this interface needs to be able to handle events (hardware key presses, valid barcode scanned, etc), but also needs to be able to throw events to the parent (i.e. barcode scanned). I've looked all around but can't seem to find anything that shows how to do something like this. ...Show All
