Windows Forms Forms designer error when trying to display
I have a Windows Forms project in a VS 2005 solution along with a Class Library project. The class library contains a class with the following static method: public static void LogError(string strSource, string ErrMessage) { //write the log message to the log if ( !EventLog.SourceExists(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["ApplicationName"]) ) { EventLog.CreateEventSource(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["ApplicationName"], CommonConstants.ErrorLogName); } ...some more functionality } Now, in my forms project, which references the class library, I have an inherited form that ...Show All
Visual Basic FIleOpen Dialog - fileopendialog.showdialog() - Change default view from List to Details
In my app a user can mouse to File Menu - Open. The fileopendialog.showdialog() has default view of ListView. The user is alway going to have to sort the file list by Date in descending order in order to open the most recent file stored in the network location. How can I make the FileOpenDialog display in Detail View by default and not List View. Thanks, MIke Code Sample dlgOpenFile.InitialDirectory = sDefaultDir dlgOpenFile.FilterIndex = 0 dlgOpenFile.Filter = "All Files|*.*" dlgOpenFile.Title = "Open PO File" If dlgOpenFile.ShowDialog() = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then 'other ...Show All
Visual Basic Control Y !!!
What have you people done to Control-Y For the past 10 years that I've used Windows this meant REDO (opposite of UNDO). In VB2005 it deletes a line. SERIOUSLY!!! not funny. Control Y deleting a line pre-dates windows. (I remember it from wordstar back in 1983) That being said it is likely that you have chosen a profile which had these mappings. You can change them or pick a new profile. Tools -> Options -> Environment -> Keyboard Mapping scheme. Hope that helps... ...Show All

Is this possible to mark a segment in a word document read only Thanks very much! Yuhang Hi, Yes, you can mark portions of a Word document as read only using VSTO.

Software Development for Windows Vista Can I hide "standard" properties on the designer?
Hi there Im working on an application based on WWF who lets user build workflows graphically. They don't have to write a single line of code. They can't for example add handlers or code conditions etc. to their workflows. So on the hosted designer there are many "standard" properties on the worklfows and activities, like "Commented" or the different handlers, which should not be there. Is there a possibility to hide them I tried to override them in code, but that doesn't work with all of the properties or the handlers. Thanks! Thomas Thomas, A dev on the team told me that you can hide properties by ...Show All

SQL Server Switches or scenarios in a cube?
Hello, I try to find out a way to create switches or scenarios in a cube. Here are 2 examples of what I want to do: - Data on-off switch, by default the cube shows no data, the user has to flip the data switch to position ON. this allow the cube to evaluate the custom MDX access control formula for this user role membership and serve him only the data he is permissioned to see. this way I can publish a blank Excel pivot table. - Calculated Measures, The formula evaluate the status of a switch with an iif and perform one or the other calculation, example, Margin type switch drives the way Margin measure is calculated.

Visual Studio Tools for Office Range.get_Information() is causing Application.XMLAfterInsert to be fired
Hi, I am getting some strange behaviour which I am having a hard time reproducing in a new project. I know that without being able to reproduce it I am not being very helpful, but I am running out of options and time. I will keep trying to reproduce it, but in the meantime any suggestions you might have would be greatly appreciated. I have a Word Template project and I am using XML tags to mark certain parts of the document that interest me. I then subscribe to the Application.XMLAfterInsert and Application.XMLBeforeDelete events so that different parts of the application can be alerted of changes made to the document.

Visual Studio Size of pdf generated from crystal report...
I have a crystal report which I export to pdf-format using either the ExportToDisk or ExportToStream method of the ReportDocument class. The space required for the pdf-encoding in both cases (not surprisingly) is the same, but it seems the size is bigger than it needs to be. I already have some pdf-files looking almost the same as the ones I am making from the crystal report (actually the crystal report was designed based on the look of these pdfs), but these are only 25% of the size. These pdf-files contain more or less the same data that mine does and in addition contains a logo which I don't have. The resolution of the ...Show All

Visual Studio Undoing checkout
Hi everybody, I'm trying to implement a continuous integration process here, and I'm using the following article as a baseline: http://dougrohm.com/cs/articles/56.aspx There's one thing there that's giving me problems, though. In one of the steps on the process described on the article, a "version.txt" file gets checked out, modified, and then checked in when the process is done. If there's a problem and the build process fails, the file never gets checked back in. Then say the problem with the build got fixed. In theory, the next build should succeed. However, it's failing because it can't check the version.txt file out, ...Show All

Windows Forms Any problem with using nvarchar field as primary key for a small table?
Hi, i'm developing a Winform Application. There is a small table (which contains no more than 1000 records anyway) that I need to use string as primary key. Given that each string is absolutely unique, is there any problem to do this I don't care about performance problem because this is just a small table and it is not used regularly. Actually, I'm thinking about if it is used in different collation of SQL server or anything relating to localization and encoding, will it cause any trouble in string comparing Is it enough to define this field as nvarchar so that unicode will not cause any problem I am not particularly familiar w ...Show All
