• Visual Studio Express Editions Parenting a form?

  Hi all ~ am trying to dynamically create a form and display it "inside" a panel on my main form. Am coming from Delphi where similar code would work - what do I need to do in C# TIA, Kai private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { Form f = new Form(); f.Parent = panel2; f.ShowDialog(this); } I'm not sure that you can house a form inside a form. The way to do this would be to create a user control that is used both by the form, and can be shown inside your form. To add a control dynamically, it needs to be added to the parent forms controls collection ( t ...Show All

• Visual Basic VB Express Edition Tool - How to find?

  A few years back, I bought the developer's edition of Sql Server 2000. This software had a tool called "Query Analyzer". You could create all kinds of DML (data manipulation) and DDL (data definition language) statements and test them out. I recently bought VB 2005 Express Edition. I am looking for the tool that would give me the same or similar support without having to modify the application I am developing. For one, I would like to query specific system tables. While I have used and appreciate the "Database Explorer", it seems to be limited in functionality. i.e. there is no sandbox to play in like Query Analy ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Accessing work item history from API

  How do I access the work item history from the API I want to traverse the history of the work item by entry if possible. If it is not possible, a string with all the history will help too. Thanks Hello You can fetch the work item of a particular revision from Work Item Store and then access the History Field to get the History. A sample code is here: WorkItem wi1 = WIStore.GetWorkItem(wi.Id); wi1.Open(); wi1.Title = testTitle + "Random Text"; wi1.Description = testDesc + "Random Text"; wi1.History = "Random Text"; int revisionNumber = wi1.Revision; wi1 ...Show All

• Visual C# C# and VS.net components - very basic question...

  This is a no-brainer, but...OK...I've developed components in COM/COM+ for a long while...I am new to developing components in C# and VS.NET...the question is this: in COM/COM+, I'm used to having to go through and INTERFACE(such as IUnKnown, etc...)...IN C# you just ADD A COMPONENT within the IDE...the question is simple: do these C# components NEED to implement any type of interface, or do they communicate without a defined interface...and 2) can I add a C# INTERFACE or ABSTRACT CLASS to the C# component to emulate the type of interface I am used to in COM/COM+.... ......Thanks......

• SQL Server Load assembly from Stored Procedure

  Hi, Is it possible to load an assembly either from a byte array or from the disk at runtime from a CLR stored procedure. I have created a stored procedure that needs to load different assemblies depending on a query and then invokes a method (called execute() passing a string query as a parameter). From debugging the CLR stored procedure in .NET I have found that it is this line that creates an error:     Assembly myAssembly= Assembly .Load()   It doesnt matter if I attempt to load the assembly from it's byte array or from a ...Show All

• Visual J# Rebuild Issue with Object Test Bench

  I am able to create an instance of a class in the Object Test Bench.  But everytime I attempt to invoke a method (even an empty void method) of the class, the tool asks me to rebuild it, after which it resets the class and does not execute the method.  It does this even though I have not modified the code in any way.  I try to execute the method right after I create the instance. This seems to happen if you have multiple projects in a solution.  Is there a workaround Help! :) Steven Just for your information. I was having the same problem and changing the settings in the optio ...Show All

• Visual Studio Sharing files across projects?

  I read that sharing of files across projects is no longer supported in Source Control. In the EnterpriseLibrary beta 2 solution they are sharing the GlobalAssemblyInfo.cs file located in the Solution Files area across multiple of the individual application blocks. These shared files have a special icon with the little link arrow on them like a short cut icon. Does anyone know how to establish these shares in VS.Net 2005 Thanks. Hi, I think you are confusing the LinkToFile feature in VisualStudio (that displays the arrow overlapping the file's glyphs) with the SourceSafe's Share feature. The Shared source ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. MDX, where do I put the symbol files?

  Sorry for the newbie question, but where do I put the Symbol files I am using April 2006 release, VS2003, MDX, x86. Thank you. Well I didn't have that directory, but after a little hunting I discovered that its a separate download. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx familyid=562D72FC-61C8-41A3-8BFF-509466F3D6AA I always assumed these were for C++ only but you are correct that there are symbols for the managed assemblies too. I believe that you don't have to copy them anywhere - you just have to tell Visual Studio where to look for them. Tool/Options/Debugging/Symbols.
