• SQL Server Unexpected Exceptions in SQL/COM+ Since Converting to VS 2005

  We are running a COM+ DLL that handles transactions and security with a SQL Server back-end.  This project was started in VS 2003, but we just converted it to VS 2005.  Since the conversion, creating a number of transactions in a row generates errors at consistent, but moving, locations in the code (i.e. the location where the failure occurs changes when I do things such as add additional try/catch statements, so it is not random ...Show All

• Visual C# But customErrors-mode IS "Off"!!!

  This is not the first times this happened... I am developing and debugging a website. I can run the site from Visual Web Developer without problems, there are no errors. However, whenever I want to see the result from a "remote computer" (or simply through another browser using the URL), I get a "censored" error message. On this page I am requested to set the CustomErrors-mode to "Off" in the web.config file if I want the error message to be vi ...Show All

• Visual J# Why is these text comparisons not working

  In my little program I have a richtextbox and a button. When clicking the button this code is run and when I debug I see that my in the richtextbox entered text is indeed in the txt variable. But when I for example enters 'hej' the first if statement is skipped, why txt = hej so txt=="hej" ought to be true! But isn't. private void Button_Click( Object sender, System . EventArgs e) { String txt = new String (); tx ...Show All

• Smart Device Development how to subclass??

  I need to intercept some messages sent to my VB form and I learned that subclassing was the solution to this. I also heard that it is much easier to subclass in VB.NET because you can simply override WndProc. does this work in Smart Device VB because there appears to be no "Message" type... how can I subclass my form should I use the old VB6 way or can I do it the "pure .NET way" as shown in this tutorial Thank you, please help. ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro RSA Public/Private Key Encryption in VFP 9.0

  Hi, I need to be able to decrypt data pulled from a MySQL table encrypted with RSA public/private key encryption within a FoxPro application.  I am currently using the FoxPro Foundation Class known as _cryptapi as a wrapper to the CryptoAPI interface.  The problem I'm having is that I can't seem to figure out how to decrypt a RSA encrypted string of data.  I know that the _cryptapi class provided by Microsoft uses the Microsoft B ...Show All

• Visual Basic Value list for a combo box

  I want to make a simple value list hard-coded as the selection for a combo box in VB.NET 2.0. Where do I enter the values I think your problem was probably that you were binding to the access database. Without the databindings in place its as simple as setting the items property for the control at design time. You had the databindings set which means that at runtime this will overwrite the items colle ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Coexistence of VSS and TFS

  Hi, Could you please confirm if co-existence of both TFS and VSS is possible and there is no impact on each other. By this what I mean is that both VSS and TFS are installed on the same box and some projects are using VSS and some are using TFS SCM. I am worried because I saw a link http://www.eggheadcafe.com/ng/microsoft.public.vsnet.vss/Jul2005/post23030072.asp which states that there is a issue with this (thought he is trying with ...Show All

• Visual Basic Use ViewState easier...

  I'm sure many of you have used ViewState in your controls. I see it all the time in walkthroughs and examples. The thing is that each time someone uses it they put in all the code nessesary to check if there is a value and set it to a default if there is not one... (There are a few variations of doing so) Public Property Text() As String Get If ViewState( "Text" ) Is Nothing Then ViewState( "Text ...Show All

• .NET Development Remoting doesn't pass Exception

  I have written a small excercise programme to use .NET Remoting, which works quite fine, but it stops when passing Exceptions from the server to the client come into play. VS2005 stops the server pointing to a line where an exception was thrown (derived by ApplicationException, marked as Serializable) and says that exception isn't handled by user code, which is wrong because on the client side there's a try/catch block that would catch the excep ...Show All
