• Visual Studio vs 2005 beta 2 setup fails

  When I try to setup vs 2005 beta 2, it says that it failed to setup visual studio itself after it gets to the end screen. The installation seems normal untill then because the vs 2005 even gets a checkmark next to it when on the install screen. The progress bar never moves when it is on vs 2005 though. I will post the error log when I can find it. Hello, I am getting the same kind of error  when installing Visual Studio 2005 Beta2. The comments before the "return value 3" are: MSI (s) (20:D8) [11:12:03:571]: Assembly Error:Function not defined in specified DLL. MSI (s) (20:D8) [11:12:03:571]: Note: 1: ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office More problems with the permissions (Word, VSTO 2005)

  The last time I had such amount of time lost was using BizTalk 2004, I guess here it is going again with the Word / VSTO and permissions. Ok, here is what I am doing, and the results: 1- I’ve created a word document VSTO 2005, C#. 2- I’ve added a bookmark in the word document. 3- The word document was connected to a web service. 4- The word document loads data from the web service, and places the data in to a bookmark. All of that is working just fine when I run the solution from VS.NET 2005; but when I copied the file to another folder, in my machine, with the DLL file, it st ...Show All

• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums Access 2003 VB code does not execute in form

  In my very simple Access 2003 db, none of the VB code will execute, whether automatically generated or written by me. No errors are displayed, it is just that nothing happens. The problem kind of comes and goes - if I wipe out all code and rebuild the form, it will work for a little while. Has anyone seen this Thanks, Mike These forums are for VB.NET questions. It sounds as though you are trying to use the VB within Access 2003 which is actually something called Visual Basic for Applications. VBA is a very different product from VB.NET and based upon older technology and there are s ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Problem with Graphics

  I don't understand why this doesn't work: Dim g As System.Drawing.Graphics g.DrawLine(Pens.Blue, 1, 1, 100, 100)   I don't see where you have set g to an instance of Graphics. Usually you use a Graphics inside a Paint event handler (where the graphics object is in PaintEventArgs parameter) or you can create a Graphics object using the CreateGraphics method of a Control/Form. ...Show All

  Hi, I have a question regarding Documents checkin and checkout via TFS Client. As you know, methodology docs are created on the Team Portal. Document checkin checkout mechanism works perfectly fine if you perform it through the portal. But the problem is, we can not perform the same exercise in TFS Client. It is not possible to checkin and checkout a document and put your comment related to it if you perform it in TFS Client. You can save a document in TFS Client but it only creates a new version of the document without any comment on the portal. We need to perform checkin – checkout mechanism of a document in TFS C ...Show All
