• Visual Studio Problem Adding Web Project Solutons to Source Control

  Ok. So I am just getting started with VSS 2005 and am trying to correctly add a web project into Visual Source Safe. The project is called Events. The add goes fine. As with a regular project, I would have expected something like this: $/Events.root Events (solution folder - contains solution file and project folder) Events (project folder - contains source code, etc) However, I end up with something like this: $/Events.root Events (solution folder - contains solution file) Events_1 (project folder - contains source code, etc) Now, I assume that this is happening because I have the Events web project open ...Show All

• Visual C# using keywords

  Hi everyone, I have some doubts about the usage necessity of using keywords. Instead of using this keyword, it is enough to only add the packages into our Assembly(DLL files), so inspite of this, why do some programmer do both of them(add the packages into Assembly and also use using keywords for these packages). Thanks, Mert Regardless of your having added a package to your assembly, you need either a using statement, or a complete namespace every time you use an object.  You're free to type System.IO.File.Exists instead of a using System.IO and then have access to the File class directly, but generally speaking, if I use a packa ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Set the cursor's position

  How to set the cursor's position using VSTO in WORD Thanks very much! Yuhang You don't give us a lot of context to go on... Basically, you use the Select method of the object you want to select. Often, this will be a range. You can use Range.Find, for example, to search for something, then Range.Select to show that to the user. Note that you usually only want to move the cursor in order to position it for the user to continue. As a rule, you should manipulate Word's object directly, without moving the cursor. If you need help with this concept, it would be best to post to the word.progr ...Show All
