• .NET Development System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(). How do I stop leaking handles?

  I am launching an executable using Process.Start() and then closing it with CloseMainWindow.

• Visual Basic Intellisense Problems

  With the Microsoft's own Excel.com Object referenced in the VB 2005 project, I get irratic results on Excels objects, methods and properties from intellisense. Usually the item(s) are ommitted from intellisense. For example, Dim x as New Excel.Application x.columns("A:A").EntireColumn.Autofit () (intellisense stops after x.columns) Do I need addtional references for Excel If so which ones Thanks -Art Hi, Art, Intellisense works off the symbols which are made available to it.

• Smart Device Development VS 2005B2 remote app running problems

  Hi, I used to be able to run/debug applications on my AudioVox smt5600 using Visual Studio 2005 Beta 2, but now it has stopped working, and I'm stumped about how to fix it. VS reports that the deployment has succeeded. I get the little multicolored pie thingee, but it just goes on and on, and never runs the application. If I navigate to the app via file manager on the device, I can run my app without any problems. If I switch to the release configuration, it doesn't make any difference. I've tried power cycles, making sure the debugger is off, etc. Does anyone have any ideas about what I can do next TIA -- ...Show All

• .NET Development Some thoughts about default parameter for C#

  I've been troubled by this problem since I started to use C#. I always try to write classes that are easy to use. When I try to write some methods that takes several parameters, I found it was really troublesome to write different overloads. I had to give up some overloads, because there are just too many combinations, when the parameter list is long. And I thought, why not default parameters Anders Hejlsberg explained in an interfiew that they didn't include default parameter because they think it was not necessary. They think it's just feature that make programmer a bit easier, but not some feature that make the language more powerful. Wel ...Show All

• Windows Forms Visual Basic .NET 2003 Drawing Applications

  Hello whoever, I am making a basic drawing application for a class that consists of a simple form with a pnl for the drawing area and radio buttons to modify the object size or color. When I create the MouseEvents to draw with, generated handler is for the painter panel. For example, ....Handles pnlPainter.MouseMove The problem is that when I do move the mouse, the application draws on the for instead. Apparently, it does draw in the location respective to where I click on the panel, so 1,1 clicked on the panel draws at 1, 1 on the form. I can make it draw on the form in the location clicked by changing the event handler ...Show All
