• SQL Server SAVING PROBLEM

  SAVING PROBLEM Now i know that my database is really saving but it is being saved on the copy database in bin folder of the project folder. But i want it to be saved on databse of the project folder. Everytime I execute the program, the database on the project folder copies itself to the bin folder which overwrites the updated database. I agree with Antoine (Software Design Engineer, Visual Studio Data Design-time) that SSE database has 2 copies ( http://blogs.msdn.com/smartclientdata/archive/2005/08/26/456886.aspx ). He or she suggested to set the property of the databse to "Copy Never" , on my SSE it's "Do not ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Cannot create project

  Maybe this could help someone else: When tring to make a new Word template project, I got the rather unhelpful dialog "Cannot create project" - and the project was indeed not created. Turned out I couldn't create any type of VSTO project anymore. On googling, sometimes this occurred with the 2005 beta, and there were various suggestions for fixes. No mention of anyone seeing this in VSTO 2005. I tried a repair/reinstall of VSTO 2005, but this didn't work, so I tried a repair of Office and that didn't work either. So I reinstalled the VSTO 2005 redistributable, and problem was solved. Still have no idea of the cau ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro executable database

• Visual Basic date format

  i am having trouble comparing dates, 1 is pulled from Outlook [Duedate] which is in the format mm/dd/yyyy and the other is todays date which is in the format mm/dd/yyyy when I display it in a message box, however I get the message type mismatch or the value in the condition is not valid Set myItems = myTasks.Restrict("[DueDate] > todaysDate") You should post the full error message, and the code in context that is giving you the error. In this case, todaysDate is a variable, so you need to put the value in the filter string, not the actual variable name, like this: myItems = myTasks.Rest ...Show All

• Visual Basic MouseDrag?

  Hello - I have a bunch of custom controls named timeSlot that are just little pannels that the color can be changed.  In another control (timeTable), a bunch of timeSlots are added programatically.  I am trying to create the effect that when the user clicks on one of the timeSlots in the timeTable, that slot's color changes and all the other slots that the mouse is dragged over change as well.

• Visual Studio Express Editions Reports & Persistance

  Hi! I'm planning to do a small project to startup with C#. I have a lot experience in coding C++ and Java, but don't have any clue of the .NET capabilities. So before I download the C# Express and install it, i want to know the following: How much effort is it to make reports (e.g. reports like everyone knows from Access with print preview etc.) Which kind of persistence is supported Can Objects easily be made persistent in lets say an Access mdb file or a XML file Kind regards, Ingo Here's a breakdown of the Express Edition features: http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/products/compare/default.aspx ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions VC-EE Redistributable Executable?

  Hi, I live in a country where ISP's have harsh restrictions on download usage. And would like to save a copy of Express Edition that doesn't require me to download 60mb~ every time I reinstall the program. Does anyone know if a "redistributable version" exists which would allow me to install it without an internet connection I ask this as nearly all other Microsoft software I've come across has this option. (.NET Framework, Service Packs, DirectX, etc) I admit I'm not very good at finding what I'm looking for :( The closest thing I could find was that page with the 500mb ISO files which probably included the 400mb worth of MSDN extras.

• Visual Studio Team System Extendable?

  I am interested in extending FxCop.  Is it extendable at the framework level Can we write event handlers or Services that say – once an error report is created it is sent to a server which displays the report in a list for all to see. Thanks FxCop wasn't designed as a general framework for driving analysis and results. We recommend using the command-line tool in a scripted system for this sort of work. For the next major release, we are looking at componentizing certain aspects of FxCop, such as rules configuration and output, to support a broader range of execution scenarios, but we haven't yet made def ...Show All
