• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) TextBox input validation

  How can I validate input for my textboxes For example I have an application where I want to input several numbers in the textboxes. The primary validation constraint is that I want the user to be able to input only valid real numbers. Some of the textboxes should contain only positive real numbers. Also I want to be able to do comparisons between the different values (for example I have a minimum speed textbox, and maximum speed textbox, so there's one more rule here: min <= max). Also, if the user is currently editing a textbox, he should be able to cancel the modifications, by pressing escape. How can I do all these with Avalon/WPF Tha ...Show All

  I've recently noticed the availability of SQL Server Mobile, and would like to take advantage of some of the new features, however, I'm currently using Visual Studio 2003. The requirements state that Visual Studio 2005 is required, but I was wondering if anyone has had any success getting it to work with VS 2003 I hope that I can do this with VS 2003, but if VS 2005 will be required, I'd like to clear up a few issues before asking my workplace to fork out more money for the upgrade: What have your experiences been like in getting clients to upgrade from SQL Server CE to SQL Server Mobile I've seen some postings regarding p ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Shipping Beta 2

  There's been a rash of speculation  as of late that Beta 2 has "slipped" to April [ Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 beta 2 delayed ]. As you can read in this post from the Developer Division Release Team [ In the Home Stretch... ], we still plan to ship Beta 2 by the end of March. That has been the plan-of-record for months. Because it takes time to move from shipped bits to downloadable bits , Beta 2 will probably be available for download during the first week or so of April. The Beta Experience is a campaign being run by the local Microsoft subsidiaries in EMEA. Expect to see Beta 2 released on MSDN and available for o ...Show All

  If I try and complile the following on Vista it complains that it can't find msxml.dll. #include <windows.h> #import <msxml.dll> int main(int, char*[]) { return 0; } Has msxml.dll been deprecated in Vista and should we now use msxml3.dll as our lowest common denominator Cheers, tom Hi yes, thanks for that.

• Software Development for Windows Vista Delay Activity in the StateMachineWorkflow

  How dow we introduce the delay activity in the StateMachineWorkflow. when I do that along with EventDrivenActivity it gives the error saying only one can exist. How do I go about this Regards Define an event driven in the state, then put a delay in as the first item in the event driven. If you have another event that you are also waiting for, then add another eventdriven to the state and add your HandleExternalEvent activity as the first item. After the first event/delay in an event driven in the state, you cannot have another blocking activity (delay/event) during that set of actions. If you ...Show All

• .NET Development ftp 502 error

  I have an ftpclient that was written in .net 2.0 and it works fine for one ftp site, but not for another. I get 502 command not implemented when I try to login and download a file. I am afraid that this might be an issue with the ftp server, but I am able to ftp successfully using good old command line ftp inside a dos window.

I'll answer my own question in case anyone else runs across this problem. The ftp server in question was built-in to a small device and was very limited in ...Show All
