  Hi, If i use a CRichEditCtrl to edit text, in particular justfying text to the left, right, center etc and doing this using the SetParaFormat method.

• SQL Server WCF Transport Channel for Service Broker

  I saw a posting or read a blog somewhere that mentioned custom WCF transport channels where created for interacting with ServiceBroker. Has anyone read or heard something similar If so, where can I get them Thanks. Phil There was a prototype of a WCF channel done a while back, but nothing production worthy has been built and shipped to-date. What is your specific interest here I'm interested to know what you would value most in this realm. For example, are you seeking a rich object model that exposes the Service Broker semantic; including features not found in other queuing systems Emphasis: ...Show All

• Windows Forms How to change control properties in Form1 from Form2?

  Hello, I have Form1 - the main form with some controls including a button. I have Form2 - the properties form with a combobox and button. The user can select the colors of a button in the combobox in Form2 and press "OK". What code should I add to "OK" so that the user can change the colors of a button in Form1 Mateusz Form2 should expose a property that gives you the color selected, then if the user pressed OK, Form1 should read this and set the color of the buttons with it. I hope your forms are not named Form1 and Form2 :-) ...Show All

In the conversation it was mentioned that writable bitmap support might be added in following months. Is this the case Will that functionality be added I do hope so! After considering all of the feedback from the forums, WriteableBitmaps were added. Please look for them in an upcoming release… ...Show All

• Visual Basic Playing a sound file

  This may have been answered before i am not sure, i am running Visual Studio 2005 beta, i would like to know how i can play a sound file in the background when someone opens a form. Any ideas I am using the my.computer.audio.play function to play an alert. The alert is the result of checking a database for new entries every 10 seconds. If there is a new entry that the software has not seen yet, it uses the VBPower Tools Notification Window to pop-up a message. What I want this to do is play the audio at that same time. My problem is, I am unable to get audio to play inside of a timer's tick event handler. Does anyone ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Why can't I see all .NET library classes?

  I've downloaded VB Express Edition just one week ago and all seems right. Now i'm trying to program a simple application, an UDP_Client. It would be easy making use of the system.net.sockets namespace and the UdpClient Class. But when I try to add the "system.net" reference to the project (double-clicking "my project" in solution explorer, in the references tab), only a few "system.xxx" namespaces appears ready to be added (and system.net is not there). I follow the next steps: Open the IDE, select "New Projet", "Windows application", double-click on "my project" in the solution explorer, select the references tab, click "add..." ...Show All

  Can SSIS detect the missing value and replace it with some reasonable value (e.g., maximum, median, average, etc.) thanks   Yanbing Hu wrote: Thanks. But if there is a way that SQL Server can automatically figure out a reasonable value used to fill in the missing value I mean I do not need to specify a value to replace the missing value, but SQL Server will figure out one Thanks Well surely that depends on your criteria for deciding what the missing value is.

• Visual C++ Bufferoverflowu.lib for amd64 is missing in whidbey beta 2

  Lets say you compile some code with the latest PSDK for AMD64 cpu. Then you compile your files into a library and expect users to use that library. However because of the security code there is a dependency for using bufferoverflowu.lib on the PSDK since it uses old CRT code. If you use #pragma comment(lib, "bufferoverflowu.lib") then the file must exist to be able to succesfully link. This is a problem if you compile your code with the PSDK and link with Visual Studio 2005. So to solve this: 1. Can I disable the need for the symbol __security_check_cookie which is the purpose of bufferoverflowu.lib (e.g. through a compiler flag) 2. Can we ...Show All
