• .NET Development How to block managed code being decompiled?

  After a lot of efforts, around 6 months of my development work on windows forms and components to bring a better application, I learnt that managed codes can be decompiled (Including Visual c++ 2003 in which I am developing - supposed to be stronger than C# and VB!). This looks like a setback, at least for initial start of my application in the market. I have made a trial run on my own code (95 % managed code with forms and windows compone ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions dynamically spawn checkboxes on a tabpage?

  Hi guys, I am trying to create checkboxes dynamically (based on number of records from a database) on a tabpage.

• Windows Forms Disappearing Controls Visual Studio 2005

  In my winform app, I have numerous .cs forms. One of the major forms (form1) has lost all of the controls in the form1.cs[Design]. Yet, in form1.cs[Desgin] all of the controls can be displayed in the properties display. I have reviewed form1.Designer.cs file and it seems to be set up the same as other forms which are working. I have reviewed the suspend/resume lines plus the Performlayout lines. They all seem to be there. The form1 did ...Show All

• .NET Development SmtpMail::Send Works Once then fails

  I am trying to send a list of reports to a list of ppl. I am using a simple managed C++ program, and SmtpMail::Send. This works fine for the first email I send, all calls there after to my SendMail function fail. I know "SmtpMail::Send" is considered obsolete, but we are currently still using VS:2003 with .net 1.1 (I think). I get this error on the second and all following calls: System.Web.HttpException: Could not access 'C ...Show All

• Visual Studio BrokenToolboxItem objects: where do they come from?

  Is there any way to figure out where a BrokenToolboxItem comes from I have one that keeps getting created. When I drop it on a Form I get an error message. When I catch the exception thrown, by attaching to the devenv.exe process with a debugger, I am able to examine the ToolboxItem that causes the problem -- but it gives no clues. It says its type is simply "Component" and its namespace is System, as if it were a toolbox item just for ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Enable/disable popups in main menu

  Hi; We have an Add-In where we need to enable/disable a couple of menu items based on the location of the caret in the document. As an example, think of the Cut menu item in Edit - it is only enabled if text is selected in the document. Is there any event or any other method where we can enable/disable the menu items just before the menu is displayed. Possibly an event that occurs when the user clicks on the main level menu that will cause it's ...Show All

• Visual Studio Document Explorer crashes

  Hi, It seems very obvious that this is a continuing problem. I followed some of the suggestions and finally re-installed VS2005. I am actually writing this from inside document explorer. The fix is a temporary thing, but I still get the "document explorer is closing" window error, but when I close out the error message, it leaves the help window. I decided to enter a search topic in the main window and voila, for some reason it d ...Show All

• Visual C# Checking if a specific handler exists

  I was wondering if there was a simple way that I can check to see if a specific handler exists for a control. I know I can simply create and set a boolean variable to true once I create the handler, but I was hoping that there was a simple way, without the use of additional variables, to check whether or not the handler has been created: My control is a TreeView, and is called tvRobot. I create the BeforeSelect handler, tvRobot_Always ...Show All
