• Visual Basic Future of Visual Basic in India

  Visual Basic 6 is still alive and kicking in India despite the emerger of Visual Studio.Net. I think it will take atleast two more years for Visual Basic 6.0 to be completely flushed out of india. I think pockets of VB6 will remain all over, not just India, as some systems will simply never be upgraded. ...Show All

• SQL Server Major Problems with Calculated Fields

  Is anyone else having problems with Calculated Members Everything was working fine with viewing the cubes in the browser, in Reporting Services, and via Pivot tables...but once I put in some simple calculated members (simple parallel period functions), query times are extremely slow, everything locks up,unexpected Visual Studio crashes occur...SSAS pretty much becomes unusable. Anyone with similar experiences You should see some performance improvements in SP1. In limited number of cases you can use NON_EMPTY_BEHAVIOR when defining you calculated member. You got to be careful with it for parallel ...Show All

• Visual Basic Datagrid row selection in 2005

  I need the data out of a specific row when clicked or when I press the enter key (on that row).  What is the process to do this in VB.net 2005 Thanks, Jeff V. Hi, You can get row data by accessing the DataGridView.CurrentRow property. If you get the cell values from the current row in the DataGridView's CellClick and KeyDown events then you can get the behavior you're looking for. Below is an example that uses a DataGridView named CustomersDataGridView. This example puts all the row data into a semicolon delimited string and displays it in a messagebox but it should be simple to modify it to do something more intere ...Show All

And then you have the option to either "Load project for Browsing" or "Load project normally", and then a checkbox "Show this dialog for sub projects" or something like that. Can anyone please tell me how I can disable the dialog Thank you. The easiest will be if I could send you a picture, but I am not able because this does not allow for it. Can I maybe email you a screenshot So that you can have better context of the problem ...Show All

• Visual Basic Bluetooth Serial Ports

  I am currently working on a software program in VB 2005 that requires input from several external sensors that are connected via Bluetooth RS-232 serial ports. I am upgrading from vb 2003 in which i used the MSComm control with no problems. However, in visual basic 2005, the my.computer.serialportnames function does not seem to be returning the correct names of the serialports. It will append various characters to the end of the com port name, for example "COM18c" or "COM18u". This code seems to work with standard serial ports. Also, I am also having problems with mutual authentication. After I add the new bluetooth de ...Show All

• SQL Server ReportServer as a separate component

  Can the ReportServer web services application be installed without installing SQL Server Let me explain a little further what I'm trying to do and if I need to take a different path, I'm open to suggestions. I am going to be using XML files for data input and RDL files to describe the reports themselves.  That being said, I am not in need of a database of any kind (and don't want to be required to use one), but I want to take advantage of Microsoft's rendering capabilities.  I have looked into the ReportViewer control, but that control doesn't support all of the rendering extensions that ReportServer does (mostly HTML).  ...Show All

• .NET Development How do I stop Firewall blocking my app?

  Hello! How do I stop firewall blocking my app Mateusz I have a blog that has some C# classes that you can use to do this.  http://blogs.msdn.com/joncole/archive/2005/12/06/500770.aspx The classes are basically just wrappers around COM objects that are already present on the machine.  You can use the code I have in that blog or you can create a COM interop assembly (reference to a COM dll) using visual studio.  Keep in mind that the code I posted is not 100% tested and so you should do some testing of your own to make sure it meets your reliability constraints. ...Show All
