• Visual Studio Team System FxCop fails to locate a present assembly

  I have a web app that uses Innova Studio's WYSIWYG editor - the DLL is included in the BIN directory. Each time I run code analysis FxCop throws an error that it can't load the dll My guess is that this DLL is v1.1. FxCop does not currently permit a 3rd-party component that is versioned differently than the binaries under analysis. We're looking at resolving this in a tool update. ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Canvas, Shapes, and Events. What's happening here?

  I've noticed some interesting behaviour with events on a Canvas, and I was just wondering what is going on. I have a custom GridControl with a Canvas on it, that has a handler for the Canvas MouseDown event. uiElement.MouseDown += new System.Windows.Input. MouseButtonEventHandler (uiElement_MouseDown); I've added some PolyLines to the canvas, and I've noticed that if I click on the lines, then my event handler doesn't get called. So ok I add an event handler to the PreviewMouseDown event to see if I can get the event before it gets to the Shape, but that doesn't work. OK, I put a transparent Canvas over the top of it all, and I ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions serial port will not trigger data received event.

  Hello All, I have this problem that is driving me crazy. First I need to say that the test bed is a virtual null modem and another piece of software I have written that sends data serially.

  Why I can not add a function or a variable in class. I recommend reading the sticky post on how to ask questions. You should choose a subject that means something. I can't imagine why you can't add functions or variables. Given that you do this via the text editor, perhaps you need to read a book on C++ ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Warehouse not updating after upgrading to RC

  Everything except reports seem to be working fine after the upgrade. When I go to run a report there is no data in it. When I run the scripts in the Warehouse Troubleshooting guide the Last processed time is null. I try to go through the controller web service and it dies on the ProcessingOLAP step.

• Visual FoxPro Use Customer VB Functions with FoxPro

  Hi there, I have heard that you can create a custom Class Library DLL in Visual Basic to be included in FoxPro 9.0. I have custom code to manipulate PDF's and would like have access to the classes in a FoxPro interface. Does anyone know how to do include a DLL Thanks for the help. As far as I know the only requirements are that it must implement the IDispatch and IUnknown interfaces and that it must be compiled (and registered) as a Multi-Threaded COM+ DLL. Then the class can be instantiated in VFP using oObject = CREATEOBJECT( "DLL.CLASS" ) ...Show All

• Visual Basic Easy way to work with Time Zones

  Hello, I have a problem. How can I easily work with different time zone client of my asp.net 2.0 application live at different part of the states, and I like to write a vb class to handle there time. Help Alan, I'm not sure what your exactly asking for here. If you want to store the date/time in a value which can be used to ensure that you can determine the actual time of say a transaction on a coordinated basis then Universal time is what you would be looking at. Then you can convert between local and universal time with ease. So they see local time on there applications but you are actu ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System VSS Converter, Solution Files still reference VSS

  Hello, We have been trying to find an easy way to move our VSS source code into the Team Foundation Source control.  As a test, I created a sample SourceSafe database and added a skeleton solution for a Windows Application.  I realized that I had to manually create the Team Project before I could use the VSSConverter tool on the specific project in SourceSafe (that's the first question, in doing a bulk migrate, must there be a Team Project defined for every single project ).  After successfully migrating that single project, I tried opening it in Visual Studio 2005 Beta 2 (through the Source Control Explorer), and it errored o ...Show All
