• Visual C++ [setup-project] How to copy external Files (*.jpg)

  Hi ! My Application needs besides the executable file a huge amount of images (about 1500, 3 GB). Ok. Since these images change quiet often, I do not want to embed them into my setup project statically. What I would prefer is to make the installer copy a directory into the target directory. Something like "copy .\images\*.jpg [TARGET_DIR]\" where "." points to the location where setup.msi lies. How can this be realized BIG THANKS FOR YOUR HELP IN ADVANCE!!! Oliver Demetz Ok. But I think, this should also be possible with a setup project from Visual Studio. Please Help Me! Thanks in advance! Oliver De ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Access files on a Mobile Device

  I am currently having issues with my first Visual Studio program. I have written an application that selects a file using the openfiledialog class, it then copies the file to a backup folder, and then reads the same file and creates an edited copy for use in our office. The program is very simple, and works. EXCEPT, that i want the original file that is being selected via openfiledialog class, to come from a mobile device. When the open file dialog box appears in the program, 'Mobile Device\' does not show up, and i can't seem to navigate to it. When i run the program ActiveSync is running and connected to the device, and when i open My C ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Can I hide "standard" properties on the designer?

  Hi there Im working on an application based on WWF who lets user build  workflows graphically. They don't have to write a single line of code. They can't for example add handlers or code conditions etc. to their workflows. So on the hosted designer there are many "standard" properties on the worklfows and activities, like "Commented" or the different handlers, which should not be there. Is there a possibility to hide them I tried to override them in code, but that doesn't work with all of the properties or the handlers. Thanks!

• .NET Development Change source URL of webservice client

  Hi I have a webservice that i wish to call from a client app. This easily done in VS 2005, but my problem is that i want to programatically change the URL during runtime. I do not want add a web proxy and then change the URL in the config file. I want the user to be able to type in the URL and right after that call the webservice. I have tried to create my own webservice proxy (via VS 2005) and modifying the SomeSerivce.URL property but this does not seem to work. I think that I am looking for a solution that uses a TCPConnection, or something similar and manually builds up my calling string, invokes the webservice and then returns the ...Show All

• Visual Studio Extending VS2005

  Hi all, I have a custom tool pane to aid in the documenting of our source code, but i have no idea how to read the line where the cursor is at in the editor, i need this to see what Methode or type i have selected.. Could anyone point me in the right direction Greetings Well that makes sense because I put the interface name down wrong.  Try searching for IVsCompletionSetBuilder.  That will teach me to just toss out an interface name without actually verifying it is the correct one :-).  Sorry for the confusion, Dylan ...Show All

• SQL Server Calling user defined function from other server

• Visual C++ customize codepage used by "cl.exe"

  I'm using Visual Studio 2005, I'm wondering whether there's anyway to set the codepage used by "cl.exe" instead of the default system codepage. For example, the system default codepage (ACP) is 936, but I want the "cl.exe" to use code page 1252 instead. Any suggestions Thanks in advance! As you probably are aware, the compiler uses the codepage corresponding to the setting under the "Regional and Language Options" control panel.  I'm assuming that you do not want to change your entire system to English, but rather just use the English codepage for the compiler in particular. I'm not wholly sure how this w ...Show All

• Visual Studio Crystal Reports Service Pack message failed to create backup folder -110

  I have a C# app that using Crystal 9 Advanced. Every time a service pack is released the service pack installer gives the message "failed to create backup folder -110" many times. This is pretty embarrassing when I ask a customer to install the service pack to correct a problem. Also, I would like to deploy the service pack with my installer and since there are no merge modules that include any of the service packs I would have to launch the service pack installer in which case those messages would really confuse my users. Can anyone tell me what it is trying to create and/or why it is failing Perhaps I could create the fold ...Show All

• Windows Forms datagrid problem when accepting changes after deleting row

  I have a datagrid on a form in which the user can insert, edit and delete records. It seems that it is working fine but when I'm deleting a row and accept the changes in the linked datatable (dg.datasource), the grid shows an additional row with dbnull values if I insert a new row/value. For example: The grid shows 111111 222222 empty row I delete 222222 the grid shows 111111 empty row I add 333333 in the empty row and click somewhere in the grid the grid shows 111111 null null empty row What I'm doing in my code is handling the dg_CurrentCellChanged event: save the changes to the database, and accept the cha ...Show All
