• Visual Studio Express Editions I have registered, how do i get the free stuff?

Please can someone tell me how to download these packages. Thanks in advance, Uzzy I'm wondering the same thing. The welcome email I got for registering had a link, but it only took me to the registration for betas. ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista System image lists and sizes

  Is there a reliable way for an app to determine the size of the icons that Vista is displaying on the desktop I'm not sure if this is a bug or, more probably, an opportunity to learn something new. As a developer of icon software, it's frequently important to know the current size of the desktop icons. There are a couple of ways to check this. I like to get a handle to the system image list (SHGFI_LARGEICON) and then query the imagelist for the size of its images. I'm running under build 5308. Video is set to 32-bit color and 1280x1024 resolution. My method of querying the system image list (large) indicates 32x32 images. The ShellIcon ...Show All

• Visual Studio Controlling solution configuration/platform

  I'm trying to figure out whether it's possible to modify the active solution platform/configuration programmatically. Basically, what I'd like to do is to either rename or delete a solution platform. This would be the same as the user opening the Edit Solution Platforms dialog from the Configuration Manager and doing a remove or rename. Is this possible either through VS interfaces or the DTE Alternatively, is there any other way of manipulating the data in the .sln file The SDK documentation indicates that automating the solution configurations is limited so I'm not sure whether this is possible.

• Visual Studio Team System Bug? - Default Queries / Associating work item from one team project to a changeset in another team project

  Maybe this is by design (though some defaults should change) I have 2 team projects set up (Proj A, Proj B). Proj A had 3 bugs in it that needed to be worked on. I then started working on my solution (code) for Proj B and checked in some changes. When I checked in, I choose to associate a work item (love this kind of integration, just great). But the work items shown were from Proj A, not Proj B (recall that the solution is associated with Proj B, not A) And while it is possible to get to the 'queries' to return active bugs for Proj B, it is actually a ton more work than expected (separate dialog, lots of tree node clicking), and frankly ...Show All

• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums Problem with RecordCount by CrossTab

  Hi, i'm getting a problem with a CrossTab in Access 97. When I open the query by clicking twice it returns 4 records. Thats OK and correct. The problem is when I open the query with VBA code, it returns 1 record (property recordCont = 1) I'm opening the query this way: Dim DB As Database Dim MyQuery As Recordset Set DB = CurrentDb Set MyQuery = DB.OpenRecordset("CrossTAB_Compras") Anyone can help Thanks, Felipe Before you get the record count use the following statement Rs.MoveLast (If Rs is initialized as a record set) This will get you the correct record count Hope it works out Shasur ...Show All

• Windows Forms Need Better BindingSource Change Support

  This has been alluded to elsewhere but I would like to make the query/suggestion specific. There appears to be a huge hole in the logic for detecting changes to a BindingSource object. While BindingSource seems like a step in the right direction, the fact that it (seemingly) lacks the support necessary to detect and address users changes is a major drawback. For instance, from what I can tell, the recommended strategy for detecting changes is to listen for ListChanged events. However, in the case of a deleted row event, you no longer have the row that was deleted. How am I supposed to propagate this change back to my persistence layer In ano ...Show All

• .NET Development ADO.NET SQL query statement

  I seem to remember reading somewhere that ADO.NET Whidbey allows us to have a sort of parameterized text query.  In other words, I could use  CommandType.Text and say "SELECT * FROM myTable WHERE ID = ", but then have the paramater passed as a SqlParameter the way it would work if I had used CommandType.StoredProcedure instead of a text query. Am I hallucinating this   If not, can anyone point me to more info on it    This approach seems useful in some cases if it guards against SQL injection attacks the way that stored procs do.   I hate having 150 one-line stored procs for "delete by unique ID" opera ...Show All

• .NET Development File Watcher Service

  I created a file watcher window service using VisualStudio 2005. The service is looking for a new file. When a new file is created it grabs that file and sends out an email. The service seem to work, some of the time. I have noticed that the service seems to stop running and I have to go in a restart it. Other times it seems that the service cannot find the file, but it is there and it is in the right path. Below is some of the code used to create the service. I did have this service build VS 2003 and I didn't have any issues. The server is Windows 2003 with .NET 2.0 Framework. Other .NET 2.0 programs that I have written run just fine on th ...Show All
