• Visual C# But customErrors-mode IS "Off"!!!

  This is not the first times this happened... I am developing and debugging a website. I can run the site from Visual Web Developer without problems, there are no errors. However, whenever I want to see the result from a "remote computer" (or simply through another browser using the URL), I get a "censored" error message. On this page I am requested to set the CustomErrors-mode to "Off" in the web.config file if I want the error message to be visible remotely. Done this. But the problem persists! What is going on! < xml version="1.0" > <configuration xmlns="http: //schemas.microsoft.com/.NetConfiguration/v2.0">  &nb ...Show All

• Visual C# Interop in reverse

  I am currently trying to upgrade the user interface of a project that was written in unmanaged C++ under VS6. The project is in MFC. The application handles computing Takeoff and Landing information for a variety of cargo aircraft. The UI is a Single Document template using the CDocument-CFormView template. What I have done so far is to use a StrategyFactory pattern to abstract the current UI so that the user will be given the current UI for all aircraft except the ones we are customizing the entry form for. This way we can customize data entry and calculations for each airframe (one at a time) without affecting all users. Now that we ha ...Show All

• Windows Forms Custom HostDesigner Implementation

  .NET 1.1 Ok, I got a custom host designer implementation. I have run into an issue. I have a form with controls in it, I save the form as a dll and I use it as a template in my host designer. When I load it up, and when the code hits the designer(intialize) bit then all the controls seem to hit the designerhost.add() routine and they all get added to the designer. When all is done, I see the buttons at the bottom, but whats the problem is that they are unselectable, I can select them and see the property browser change and I can move them via the property browser, but I can not move them around on the screen via the mouse and it never puts g ...Show All

• SQL Server debuggin T-SQL

  How do I debug my T-SQL in SQL Server 2005 I think I saw an article from Niels Berglund notings that I need VS.NET to do this -- is this true If we're not a .NET shop (well, it's there in pockets), but using SQL Server, is there another way other than getting this IDE for my power DBAs that build the business logic Thanks... Hi Learningdba,   In SQL Server 2000, the debugger was included with Query Analyzer. But in SQL Server 2005, it was moved to Visual Studio, and you can't debug with only SQL Server installed.   If you, like me, prefer to see the debugger r ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions const_cast of std::string::c_str() for winapi?

  For some winapi structs and functions a non-const char (or wchar_t) is required. If my code uses the stl std::string, would it be acceptable to use const_cast on the c_str() member function Or is copying to a TCHAR array the best solution The situations I might envisage using such a const_cast would be where I'm fairly certain the system only copies the string (to a listbox, combobox or comboboxex list, for example) , rather than alters it . Would this be an acceptable use of const_cast or should I prefer using a temporary array to store a copy of the stl string and pass that instead to those windows functions or structs that mig ...Show All

• Visual Studio Conditional formatting c#.NET "Unknown Query Engine Error"

  I have a report I created in Crystal Reports 8.  It has VERY simple conditional formatting which works fine in the stand alone Crystal Reports designer. The formula is: If Mid ({Field}, 1, 4) = "BOLD" Then     crBold That formula is a conditional format formula on the style of a database field. Now the application is a c# fat client.  When I call that report it gives a "Unknown Query Engine Error". If I remove the conditional formatting, and call the report with the identical selection criteria, it will populate and display correctly. Does anyone have any thoughts/ideas as to what is occurring ...Show All
