• Windows Forms How to add Controls to ListView Control??/

  Hi Im trying to develop a calendar control that is similar to outlook. Initially I was planning to use a listview and add the controls on the listview whenever an appointment is created. But the control is exactly not added to the listview but to the form. When I change the size of the form then the controls obviously are out of place. I was wondering is there a way to add a control to ListView. Or is there any other control than listview that fulfills my requirments. Your help wil be appreciated. I'm using C# windows Forms. Maybe you can find something useful here: http://www.windowsforms.com/Default.asp ...Show All

• .NET Development Environment.TickCount not accurate in Net 2.0?

  I'm using two TickCounts to calculate the time in ms it takes for server queries to be answered. Now I'm experiencing the phenomenon that sometimes the difference is zero when querying servers on the other side of this big dirtball and using a slow modem connection to link to my provider. Adding a Thread.Sleep(0) or Thread.Sleep(1) seems to help most of the time, but I still get a zero difference sometimes despite successfully sending and receiving - which definitely takes more than a few ms even under the best circumstances. Here's my code (C++/CLI): int t1 = System::Environment::TickCount; S->Send(qarr,1); rarr = S->Receive(2000); S ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Running Without CLR

  Is there any way that we can compile our application (.NET) without CLR   So, it can work on the older Windows OS, without installing the CLR.   I don’t see any option in the build that allows me to compile without the CLR.   If someone could point me into right direction that would be great! Its still possible to build unmanaged applications, so applicatins that don't need the CLR. You can still use Win32 API CRT and other standard libraries. This programms run on any machine from Win98 on (maybe you have to ship some library DLL files). ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Vista December CTP Install Problem in Microsoft VPC

  I am trying to install the latest Vista December CTP build on a Microsoft VPC. I have the latest version of VPC with the latest SP. The Vista product key from MSDN works fine.

• Visual C# How can I group listview items under categories created at the design time?

  Hello, I am wondering how can I group listview items under categories created at the design time. Code: listview1.Items[X].Group = XXXXXXXXXX Please help. Thanks. Try the following code. You can't directly specify the listView1.Items[x].Group. The following code should work.

• Windows Live Developer Forums Launching an IM Window via JavaScript

  I'm attempting to create a "IM This Page" widget that website owners can place on their pages to let users send their pages over different IM clients.  AOL and Yahoo were pretty simplistic, as they register the aim: and ymsgr: protocols with the OS.  MSN Messenger on the other hand has been extremely difficult. With older version of MSN, one could create JavaScript objects using the progid's MSNMessenger.UIAutomation, MSNMessenger.MessengerApp, or MSNMessenger.MsgrObject.  With these objects, it was then possible to launch an MSN conversation window to a particular recipient. However, with newer versions of MSN, it seems ...Show All
