Visual Studio Express Editions System.Window.Form Controls
I recently started using the Visual Web Developer Express edition. I wanted to use the WebBrowser control, and could not find it. After I pressed on "Show All" tool bars, I could see that all the controls that are related to System.Window.Form are gray, and cannot be used. How can I resolve that Thanks, Yaron. For the most part you can’t. In order to use and display WebBrowser control it must be hosted inside of a container class such as a System.Windows.Forms.Form... something that doesn’t exist on a web page. Don’t forget Visual Web Developer Express helps you build web sites t ...Show All
Visual Basic Notify Icon and the system tray.
I've been successful with this in VB6. The VS2005 notifyicon class is certainly much nicer and much improved. I've implemented a notifyicon and it's working as expected with one exception. The normal tray icon does not dissapear. How do I make this happen Renee Actually Mattias, I was aware that it's not always at the bottom. Sometimes as brevity requires.....well brevity. Thank you and "DUH" on my part. ...Show All
Windows Search Technologies WDS and Outlook 2000 crashing on exit issue - open for discussion?
I read through the previous thread and really didn't get the sense that this issue is being addressed or acknowledged. So, here's my own experience on it: It seems even with the new build of WDS (03/08/06), I too still have the Outlook 2000 crashing on exit problem. I'm running Win2K SP4, Office 2000 SP3 and all updates from Microsoft Update for both the OS and Office. The Pc is a 1.5Ghz P4, 1GB RAM, 80GB HD, etc. The hardware is more than sufficient. I recent formatted my hard drive and reinstalled clean the OS, Office, all updates, and WDS. I have not restored my backup of my PST for Outlook; I have left it as a new install. Therefor ...Show All

Software Development for Windows Vista Service events missing event handlers? - [code included].
"In Beta2, when you add a service to the ExternalDataExchangeService, the events are assigned event handlers that, when invoked, enqueue a message onto the workflow queue created by the HandleExternalEventActivity." I'm not seeing my HandleExternalEventActivity getting invoked and I believe it might be because the initialization step in the workflow creation is not creating these handlers for me. So my event sink is never invoked: In asp/net is there anything special you have to do I have the following services in the web.config : <add type="System.Workflow.Run ...Show All

Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. MDX 2.0.0.0 Error - HRESULT: 0x8007007E
I just installed the Managed DirectX December 2005 SDK. I then added Microsoft.DirectX as a reference to a new c# app. Added Vector3 k = new Vector3(); and then ran the application, but recieved 'The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E)' as a error. After using filemon, i noticed that the program was looking for XINPUT9_1_0.dll in about 15 different directories, but with no luck. So i simply copied that file from DX SDK into one of the paths list; 'C:\WINDOWS\assembly\GAC_32\Microsoft.DirectX\2.0.0.0__31bf3856ad364e3' to exact, and this fixed the error above. Ive googled around a bit and found that some p ...Show All
SQL Server Capturing and reporting execution errors
We have a report subscription that emails an excel file every morning at 11am. For the past two mornings the subscription fails due to one of the parameters being null. This was caused by another programmer changing a stored procedure used in the report. What I'd like to know is how can I capture and report that the report failed to be produced. I have loaded the Execution Log sample reports and the relevant DTS package to load the logs is run every 5 mins. However, this error does not show up in the reports. The entries in the Report Server log file are as follows, ReportingServicesService!dbpolling!25a4!17/08/2005-11:00:12:: EventPol ...Show All

.NET Development How to tell if the remote object is available on the server (without invoking its method)
I have a remote object hosted in windows service. The client access this remote object via interfaces (not by instantiating the object type directly). Currently, the way i can tell if the server is available or not is calling one of the method and catching for RemotingException. These are the setup: 1. Channel: IPC ,binary formatter 2. Host: Windows Service 3. Client: Windows Form 4. .NET 2.0 5. Remote Object is a server activated singleton object. 6. I created the object on the server manually and marshal it out manually rather than relying on the remoting infrastructure to create the ob ...Show All
