• Visual Studio Express Editions Quick question please help. Installing VWD2005 express on a clean machine

  Hi there, I wish to install Visual Web Developer 2005 Express on a completely clean machine. I intend to format my hard drive, install Windows XP and then install VWD2005 Express. On the MSDN website it says...... Uninstall beta versions Before installing, you MUST uninstall any previous versions of SQL Server 2005, Visual Studio 2005 and the .NET framework 2.0. Does this mean that after installing Windows and doing all the updates that I must then UNINSTALL .NET framework 2.0 before installing VWD2005 Express This doesn't sound right to me. Many thanks for any help, Graham Th ...Show All

• Visual C++ New STL debug iterator strategy assert fails on standard code

  The following peace of code makes the new stl port crashes (asserts) in debug mode. It happens both in Visual C++ 2005 & Express. vector<int> vs; vs.push_back(1); vector<int>::iterator i=vs.begin(); vs.pop_back(); if (i!=vs.end()) // assert here in != operator ; Obviously the code is stupid (useless) but this is standard, and there is many way to make a concrete (usefull) example crashes. The reason is simple. After pop_back the itterator previously pointing on the last element of the vector happens to point on its end. Thus i.Mycont is set to 0 by the new STL strategy. At least, when compar ...Show All

• Architecture Designing web apps in the enterprise

  Hi all, In my organization we have multiple web apps, each of them serving a different part of the organization. Because the vision is that all apps will be using the same infrastructure and might share information (pages and services), the original design of the web site was to declare a single web site (single virtual directory), and each of the apps will just be a folder in the site (meaning all apps will use the same iis application). Of course there is another option in which the infrastructure is built into usable assemblies (cache management, security utils ...) and each of the applications will have it's own virtual director ...Show All

• .NET Development Why is the VS 2005 DataAdapter documentation so misleading?

  If you read the first line in the help file for SQLDataAdapter, it says the following... Represents a set of data commands and a database connection that are used to fill the DataSet and update a SQL Server database. This class cannot be inherited That is about as far from the truth as possible. If a DataSet is a collection of 10 datatables, some of which are related, and some are not, then how in the world is the SQLDataAdapter supposed to fill all 10 tables in the dataset with only a single "InsertCommand" "DeleteCommand" "UpdateCommand" "SelectCommand" A DataAdapter is obviously onl ...Show All

• SQL Server JDBC Driver for J#

  Will there be a SQL Server 2005 JDBC Driver that can be used from J# I have code that must compile in both J# and Java so ADO.NET and System.Data are not an option. The normal JDBC driver is just a JAR file so not accessible from J# only Java. Thanks! Ted Ted: J# ships with an ODBC-JDBC bridge and it should be as easy as selecting SQL Native Client as your driver option when you add a System DSN -- see http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/9bbt582h(VS.80).aspx for more details. -shelby ...Show All

• Visual Basic Regions bug

  Every day after I’ve been working in the IDE for a while, the collapsed #regions will not open with a single click on the plus sign anymore. Instead it takes 5 to 10 clicks to open them. Actually in different source code files it takes a different number of clicks in order to un-collapse a #region . (but always the same number of clicks within the same source code file) I sure hope this will be fixed soon. It's been doing this all along since I switched in February. Any idea what's causing this Which versions on VB are you using.... VS Studio, VB Express Has it been doing this f ...Show All

• SQL Server Can Query Designer Handle Subqueries`

  When a subquery is part of an insert, update or just a from or where clause, it doesn't seem to have a way to structure it.  Is there a procedure for that Thanks, David Hi David,     One other alternative starting with the APril CTP is to use the query designer within the Query Editor to design each sub-query by selecting the text to design and then issuing the Design Query in Editor command. Thank you, Bill Ramos ...Show All

Both of these types cold not handle data between 1/1/0001 to 31/12/9999. But you can store these dates as a varchar and just pa ...Show All

• .NET Development C Style char array returned by an event from a DLL COM

  I am using a DLL (COM interop) in Visual Basic 2005 and can not get the correct values returned from an event. The last argument is a variable length array of char that is returned as a pointer to the first element in the array. The only thing I get is the first byte no matter how many characters are to be returned. For exampe, if the returned value is 257 in two bytes, my value I get is 1.
