• Software Development for Windows Vista Access violation errors

  Hi.   I'm trying to make a DirectShow app in C++. I'm using Visual Studio 2005 Express, and I don't want to use .NET for various uninteresting reasons. I can get programmes to compile fine, but every time I try to run them it comes up with access violation errors. I feel sure there's something fairly simple and probably fairly obvious I'm doing wrong, but I really don't know where to start figuring out what that thing is. In this example, the violation occurs when I try to call pGrab->SetOneShot( true );. The really strange thing is that calling pGrab->SetOneShot( false ); works perfectly, or appears to (or rather, ...Show All

• SQL Server Update existing columns

  I need to create an SSIS package that updates columns in a table from columns in another database where the keys match. What's the best way to do this As with most things in SSIS there is more than one way of achieving this but the default method here is to build a data flow that extracts data from the "other" database, then use an OLE DB Command transform to do the update. -Jamie ...Show All

• SQL Server DTS Legacy and SQL 2005

  I am in the process of migrating to a new SQL 2005 server. I have a number of DTS packages on my SQL2000 server, approximately 200, that are used on a daily basis. I used the migration wizard to migrate the packages from the 2000 server to the new 2005 server however there are issues with the way some were brought over. I would like to have all of the packages moved from the 2000 to the 2005 server and appear under Legacy DTS so that I can run them as 2000 DTS packages unitl I have a chance to correct the issues. Here is where my question lies. The migration wizard migrates upgrades all of the packages. How do I move them from the one ...Show All

• Visual Studio ReportViewer with inner join

  Hi, I'm trying to create a report with two tables in which I've created a inner join in the dataset desiner. I run the query and it works fine. When I am in the report designer I create a table and then pull the fields over from the data source into the details area. I have to select them from the two tables in the data source window. When I run the report the secondary fields do not synchronize. This is where I am confused, shouldn't those secondary fields I added to the SQL Select statement with a inner join, be available to add to my report Shouldn't I only need one ObjectDataSource for my report What am I missing ...Show All

• Visual Studio Security settings of WebBrowser controls hosted in Visual Studio

  Revisiting this post : I have also tried creating a tool window that hosts a WebBrowser control, but like this user points out, it appears to be inheriting the security settings of the VSBrowser and not honoring the security settings that I have specified through Internet Explorer settings. I have been doing some research, and from this documentation of the new security settings, it appears that the browser security might be per-process, therefore it looks like it is possible that a Web Browser control that I host inside Visual Studio might have no choice but to inherit the same security settings as the VSBrowser. Is it possible to ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Deploy different projects to different locations?

  Can one Build Type deploy different application projects to different locations (for example, deploy app A to \\server1\drop and app B to \\server2\drop ) Out of the box, this behavior is not supported. The easiest thing might be to create two different build types. Alternatively, you could override the CoreDropBuild target to force it to do what you want it to do. -Aaron ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro Visual Foxpro tables locked by aspnet_wp.exe process

  Hi! I'm currently using Visual Foxpro 9.0, .NET Framework 1.1, Visual Studio 2003 (VB) for web development. Everything's fine except this little 'quirk'. When i'm doing some testing, and try to open a table with VFP, i have the following message :File access is denied .... with the path of the table. The first solution i found (not very practical in a running environment) is to run a cmd-line and type iisreset to release any process or handle associate with the database. The second solution i found was to run Sysinternals Procexp, click on the aspnet_wp.exe process and close all the handles on the databases and ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Derived ComboBox Designer/Component Error

  I am using VS 2005 Beta 2 for a PocketPC 2003 VB project, developing with a physical device. I am trying to derive my own ComboBox control, and then drag it onto a form. My code for the derived ComboBox is simple so far, the class just inherits from ComboBox and provides a default constructor which calls MyBase.New(). My problem is in using the designer. I can see my new component in the toolbox, however when I drag it onto the form I get the following error: "Failed to create component 'ListCombo'. The error message follows:   'System.InvalidCastException: Unable to cast object of type 'Microsoft.CompactFramework.Design.UnsafeControl' ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Outlook Addin doesn't work

  I've tried to create a simple test application to prove that I can create an Outlook addin by using Visual Studio 2005 Team Suite, and Office 2003 Professional, but I can't get it to work. When I debug my application, it appears to run. Outlook starts up, but none of my addin logic is performed (to simply create a new e-mail message). In Outlook, when I check Tools > Options > Other > Advanced Options > COM Add-Ins , I can see my addin in the list, but it is not checked. If I check it and click OK, I would expect it to remain checked when I reopen the COM Add-Ins dialog box, but instead, it appears unchecked again! Is ...Show All
