• SQL Server General network error. Check your network documentation

  I use sqlclient to connect directly from my mobile 5 pocketpc to a sql server 2005 database on my desktop. I use a sqldatareader to traverse the results of a query that delivers 2 fields: (1) the filespec, and (2) the image field. I use a filestream with a binary writer to write the contents of the image data to the pocketpc's storage card. I have a test table with 10 images, not one more than 4 MB.  I cannot complete a test run prior to receiving the  general network error. The pocketPC is connected via activesync to the desktop, and I connect to the database with: Integrated Security=false; user id=sa password=admin. Any help wit ...Show All

• Smart Device Development wldap32 on Windows CE 4.2

  I tried posting on one of the other forums to try and find information on this but didn't get any response. Could anyone please let me know where I can find wldap32.lib for Windows CE 4.2. When I installed the Pocket PC SDK 2003, as well as the Standard Sdk, there is documentation about the winldap api for Arm4. However wldap32.lib which holds the implementation for this is not present in the wce420/lib directory in these SDKs. It looks to be present for wce500 or Windows CE 5.0, but that's of no use to me. Please let me know if I can find this library somewhere or its not available at all for Windows CE 4.2 and Microsoft documentation is i ...Show All

• Windows Forms Combobox event usercontrol

  Hello, I am sure y'all have answered this before, but I am having a rough time finding the answer. I will blame my cold instead of my laziness. I have created a user control to hold a bunch of panels. I created a collection class to hold the panels and that works great. Now I am trying to add a combobox on the UC so that at design time It list all the panels that I have added and be able to navigate between panels using the combobox selectedindexchange event. I understand I need to create a custom designer, but after that I am lost. Any Idea Thank you, Matt If the panels are full screen ...Show All

• Visual Studio "passing along" files from a custom editor to standard editor

  I have a custom editor for XML files, but I only want it to read specific types of XML files that contain a certain Element. I'd like for the custom editor to check for the existance of that Element (already does that actually) and if the XML file does not contain that Element, just pass the file along to be handled by the standard XML editor in VS. I'm not sure of the correct way to "pass that file along" in my EditorFactory though. what should I return or call to indicate to VS that it should use the standard editor instead Is it as simple as just returning VSConstants .S_FALSE in that case Rob P.

• Visual Studio Deploying CR IX with Windows Forms Apps

  I needed to create numerous reports and started with the CR IDE within VS 2003. The UI is awful, so I purchased CR IX full version to get a decent UI to work with.  The intention is to deploy the CR viewer and rpt files with the app and push data into the reports via ADO.NET dataset. All of this works fine. But when I build a deployment project, CR insists a merge module be used and it tops out at 63 MB.  The merge module contains lots of *** thet I do not want to install. The merge module itself has user selectable components that will be installed, but from the 63 MB merge module which has to be deployed to the end ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Passing a token between services and InfoCard

  I would like to use InfoCard to authenticate and acquire a token on one channel and then I would like to create a second channel and pass the token I acquired in the first channel to it so that I am not prompted by InfoCard again. Something like this (pseudocode). Is this possible or would it by nature invalidate the token All of my services require the same claims, and my application calls into multiple services, so I want to get the token once and reuse it for each service. I thought about using InfoCardClient.GetToken(), but I'm not sure what to do with the resulting GenericXmlSecurityToken. How can I tell a channel to use it // Host my ...Show All
