• Smart Device Development deployment

  Hi there. I am using cabwizsp (VS.NET 2003) to deploy project cab file for SPV's (ARM devices) I have noticed that not all the cab files will install/run on any MDA/PDA device because of the proc. Currently by default it works for ARM procs (v4). I noticed that there is a switch to specify what CPU type you wish to deploy the files to - I need to create a cab file for the t-mobile MDA platforms. I think it is an intel XScaler proc. How would I deploy it for that type of device using the cpu-type switch any guidance is much appreciated! Thanks! No, the problem is not because of processor. XScale is an ARM CPU. In fact, st ...Show All

• Windows Forms Does WebBrowser control in .net 2.0 support blocking pop-up windows?

  If yes, how to accomplish this Thanks in advance. Can't believe that it don't support that. if so, i don't think there'll be many people using that control since as of today the pop-up blocking has become a basic funtionality of web browser. anyway, hope the sp1 will be soon and resolve this:) ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Default implementation language for distributed system designers

  Is there any option to change the default implementation language for the distributed system designers Related question: will supoport for C++/CLI implementation be included in RTM I debated between the two and chose this one - 'course, if this was NNTP, I'd simply have cross-posted it to both places ;-)  (Yes, I hate web forums - so inefficient compared to NNTP). Thanks! ...Show All

• SQL Server Stored procedure issues...

  Hi, I have a table set up in SQL Server Express with the following columns: PartNumber (PK, smallint, not null) PartName (nchar(50), not null) Status (nchar(10), not null) Price (decimal(8,2), not null) What I want to do is create a simple .Net form where the user types in a search key and the key is matched against the PartName field to provide matches. This was easily done in the .aspx file itself: SELECT * FROM dbo.PartsTemplate WHERE PartName = @PartName ORDER BY PartName ASC It works exactly as it should. However, since I'm still learning my way around SQL Server Express (and to a degree SQL itself) I wanted to try creating it as a stor ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Outlook and ASP.NET

  Hello, I have read things about VSTO and have heard people say about cool things you can do with outlook using VSTO. I was wondering if there was a way to use the power of VSTO from within an ASP.NET application. I currently have a ASP.NET application that would like to set up appointments in outlook and such, but im finding it to be a pain. Can someone give me some ideas or guidance in this area Thanks Mark Mark, You can't really "use VSTO inside ASP.NET", especially in the way you describe. Working with Outlook data needs to happen either inside of Outlook using the Outlook OM or by access ...Show All

• SQL Server "Dynamic" relationship between one table and many other tables

  Hello all.  I'm hoping someone can help me with this problem. I have a lot of experience with sql server and as the years have progressed, I have gotten much picker about my relational design. I enforce referential integrity whenever possible.  However, I'm running into a pattern in my current project that seems to defy referential integrity, or at the least, cause me to have to write a lot of extra code to allow sql server to enforce it. For example, I have a comments table: ------------------------------------- CommentID int identity (the pk) UserID int (ID of the user who made the comments) DateCreated smalldatetime (date it was ...Show All

Make the visual designer faster. It should be as fast as VB6 was to open them and to move controls around. (i.e. It shouldn't take 45 seconds to display moderately complex forms in the designer (try duplicating the Outlook Edit Contact window, and you'll see what I mean)) 2. Fix the label control so that if it's right aligned and you type  ...Show All

• Visual Basic Output line numbers progamatically (for logging/debug purposes) to a text file

  Using MS Visual Studio .Net 2003 VB I'm trying to figure out how to output the line number of a line of code that is executing.  This would be used for logging/debugging purposes. MS VC++ has the 'built in macro' by which this can be done __LINE__ and I have been unsuccessful in finding a VB equivalent - if one even exists. Best example I can give is in C++ because I have none for VB. void Example (int test) {    if (!test)       printf ("test not set @ line %d", __LINE__); } All that to say I need to know if there is an equivalent to __LINE__ in VB.  Thanks in advance for the help. ...Show All

• Windows Forms Determining Application Startup Form at run time

  Anybody know of a pattern for determining the startup form of a .NET application at runtime Since the startup Main method is static, Template Method and other inheritance based patterns are problematic. Have not found any answers via Google either. I've seen the example using a derived class from the ApplicationContext class that allows setting of the MainForm property but that still leaves the "chicken and egg" problem of starting any kind of dynamic mechanism from a static method. Every scenario I've come up with seems to boil down to having to know some concrete class (builder, factory, etc) or the concrete form itself up fro ...Show All

• SQL Server Limit Report Server Access

  All, I'm looking at the possibility of allowing only certian tasks and reports to be available to users.  I want the user to only have so much control...but would like them to be able to run reports, subscribe to reports and be able to use the query builder.  We don't want the user to see all of the reports in the organization, just the reports for there specific department.  So I don't know that I want them to see the report server itself...but maybe be able to run certian features. Can this be done Local administrators on the report server machine will get read properties and read/set ...Show All
