• Visual Basic Numericupdown in VB 2005 Express

  I'm a new user so be nice! When using the Numericupdown how do you determine if the up arrow or down arrow has been pressed. When you press the Up arrow the displayed number goes up and when you press the Down arrow the displayed number goes down I'm sure that's not what you meant. If you want to check in code which arrow has been pressed then you need to remember what the previous value was and then compare it to the current value. A convenient way of storing the previous value is to assign it to the control's tag property. Something along the following lines should do what you want. Private Su ...Show All

• SQL Server Change request: Parameter mapping

  In some places in the SSIS enviroment, you can use parameters in queries, for examples in the query part of the OLE DB Command component. You do this by specifying placeholders using question marks. The question marks result in parameters on the Column Mappings tab of the Advanced Editor named Param_0, Param_1, etc. When adding question marks to the query later on, new parameters are created named Param_<x>, where ‘x’ is the next higher index number, no matter where the question mark appears in the query. If, for example, your initial query contains two parameters and later on you add a third one that appears as the first para ...Show All

• .NET Development Typed Dataset [newbie]

  Hi, I have a problem with typed dataset. I have created a typed dataset according to a microsoft article. This part seems to work fine. The dataset is available in the object browser and intellisense (which is nice), but in the object browser, there's a C# icon and the description of the methods seem to be C# syntax.. I use VB. And when I try to use the dataset in my program intellisense display myDataSet.myTableDataTable, myDataSet.myTableRow, myDataSet.myTableRowChange etc... But no columns. I tried this to access the content the int in the first row, column "No_": Dim strID As Integer = dsPmsItem.tablePmsItemRow(0).N ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Dynamic forms

  I'm creating a form for passing information between shifts in my department. Somedays there is little to pass along, other days, ALOT. As of now, I can print the form for minimal information days just fine by directly formating where the labels and textbox informatio0n prints on the page. I'd like to be able to have the labels and textboxes "drop down" the page as they fill in with more information. Right now, they just overwrite the label next in line. I hope this makes sense. If I can figure out how to attach the code, I 'll send it to whomever can help. Hi, You can use TableLayoutPanel control for this p ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Basic Profile assertion fails (BP1212)

  Hi! I'm experiencing a problem with WS-I compliance and the January CTP. I'm using the WS-I testing tools to monitor and analyze the data sent between the client and the service. In the analysis report, I find that the assertion BP1212 (R2212) fails. The description of this error is: "The content of the soap:Body element is inconsistent with its description. The envelope does not contain exactly one part accessor element for each of the wsdl:part elements bound to the envelope's corresponding soapbind:body element." I've checked the generated WSDL and the messages passing through the testing tool monitor and I can't see why ...Show All

• .NET Development internallyprotected access modifier? (not internal protected!)

  Hi forum! I'm currently developing a library type project with a bunch of internal types responsible for internal logic. My problem: i can't use these types in protected methods of  public library types! The compiler quits with an "inconsistent access modifier" error. So my question is, are there any plans to add an "internalprotected" access modifier (i.e. protected -- but only internally) to future c# specs The only solution i can come up with is to make the mentioned protected members internal accessible, but this would break my class design. Example: public class PublicType {     protected void ProcessData(Inter ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Smart Devices, future development

  Does anyone have any ideas what the next generation of smart devices will be like Is there going to be more memory Can we develop applications bigger than 32mb Will we have more than 32 program slots Will there be a hard disk Will smartphones have a touch-screen What extra will WindowsMobile 6.0 give us We're developing for PocketPC 2003/WindowsMobile 5.0, and having to restrict functionality to fit hardware restrictions. Obviously we have half an eye on future enhancements, and are coding flexibly.

• .NET Development Detecting if code executes after exception

  Hi, I'm wondering if there is a uniform way to detect whether code is running after an exception is raised (within the .NET framework 2.0), transparent to the possible environment the code is running in (ASP.NET, Forms application etc). I have a Dispose method that that must behave differently when it's executed after an exception has been raised. This disposable class will be placed in a library that will be used by different types of applications. In ASP.NET you can check the HttpContext.Current.Server.GetLastError() method, but this only works for a web application. So how do I know for sure an exception has been raised independent of the ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Redistributing static libraries?

  I have a static library which is currently available on Win32, Win64, Mac OSX and Linux. However I'm interested in a qualified opinion if it's realistic to create static libraries on Windows CE My library is written in C++ but exports a C frontend. However I'm in doubt. There exist atleast 4 different processor types (x86, mips, sh and arm) and on top of that lots of different SDKs. I mostly only use CRT functions, STL and a few Windows specific functions but I sense I could be in big trouble as far as compatibility goes. As I found out ( http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=111412&SiteID=1 ), there are problems when m ...Show All
