• SQL Server Where are my migrated packages?

  I have successfully migrated 50+ packages from 2000 to 2005. Where are they ! ! I looked through Management Studio and through Visual Studio ("SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio") and cannot find them. Note: When I open Visual Studio the splash screen confirms that Integration Services is installed.   Thanks   Kirk has blogged about it here: http://sqljunkies.com/WebLog/knight_reign/archive/2005/05/05/13523.aspx Hope that helps! - Ranjeeta ...Show All

• .NET Development NetworkStream with UDPClient

  hi, is it possible to use a networkstream while using an udpclient to send and receive data. I have a thread wich constantly checks the Stream to see if new data has arrived, because i have to implement both a tcp connection and an udp connection i'd like to use the same thread to check for incoming data as well as sending data; by setting the UDPClient to work only with 1 remote host is it possible to use the networkstream for this pupose btw, how do i make the code in a post look like code instead of normal text thanks!!!! ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions New VB user questions

  I am an experienced programmer in QB but new to VB. I have VB 2005 Express and am trying to get up to speed. For a learning project, I have a simple Windows form that calculates a Cylinder volume. The form has labels and test boxes for input, a results box, and 3 buttons (Calculate, Next, and Exit). Functionally, all works correctly so far. Question 1 - How do I set up to use keyboard navigation for data entry going to the next field or button The TAB key will jump to the next field, but not trigger a mouse click. The Enter key does not do anything. Question 2 - How can I cause a jump to a desired field on a data entry error such a ...Show All

• Visual C# GDI+ Multi Thread

  I am using GDI+ to draw to the graphics object when an OnPaint event occurs. However, if you draw lots of things, the form becomes unresponsive until all of the drawing is done. Is there anyway to put the OnPaint event in another thread, so the form can remain responsive while the painting occurs Try to create classes that contain the logic and create a IDrawable interface or something with a Draw( Graphics g ) method. Then you can cache the Pen, Brushed or even an Bitmap representation withing the instances. Grey Young, please specify wish part you are intrested in and i will provide a sample. ...Show All

• Visual C++ Has casting to int from double changed completely in VS2005?

  Has casting to int from double changed completely in VS2005 Numbers that are too big are always -1 now. Which has caused me much pain to track down and is not compatible with code we currently use. Here is an example, it used to be that if you cast a big number to an int, you would some value that was related to it in some way: (int)1.0957837e+011 => -2090779696 But now it is always -1 if the value is out of the range of the int: (int)1.0957837e+011 => 0x80000000 Is there anyway to make Visual Studio 2005 use the old style of casting Thanks John Petritis John: I'm not see this behavior.

  Hi All, I get an error when trying to install Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Premier Partner Edition Installer . It tells me that I don't have VS2005 and cannot install.

• Visual C++ Problem compiling a program

  How do I compile my code   When I open a file, it won't let me debug or run the file.  And if I manage to get that, as soon as it runs, it just says: Press any key to continue... then it quits.  windows.h is part of the PSDK headers which is not installed with the VC 2005 Express SKU, you will need to install it separately.

• .NET Development DoEvents not available under My.Application

  Problem: When I try to add a My.Application.DoEvents statement to my form code, DoEvents is not a member of the list. Background: I started this project as a Windows Service. To make my initial draft easier to debug, I changed it to a Windows Application and added a form. The program is running and the interface works. I tried the Run Custom Code option under each of the files under My Project, thinking it might regenerate the myApplication object. Now I am not sure it has anything to do with this. Thanks in advance for your advice. Glenn Not sure why it doesn't show for you, but you can hit it ...Show All

• Visual Studio Propating targets from master to sub-builds

  Any real world product of any size that uses msbuild.exe (apart from the VS project systems) will end up with many .*proj files which get chained together using the MSBuild task. There must be some way to propagate specified targets from parent to child. I have seen some suggestions on doing this and they look absurdly combinatorial in approach. There has to be a simple way for a parent *.proj file to pass along the target list that it was invoked with to its subordinate .*proj files. Yes We do not have any runtime defined property like MSBuildBinPath for target names that the project was invoked with. H ...Show All
