• SQL Server XML data source

  Hi! I would like to use a xml file as a data source's configuration file: the user should change the data of Data Source and initial catalog values on it, and then I would take those values and use them to creat the connect string. But I don't want to publish this xml file. Is there anyway I can read from a xml file, not using http://server/file Thank you! There are a couple of ways to accomplish this without publishing the xml file. 1. You can use custom code to get the file from where it is located (the example below uses the file system) and parse it for the values you require, ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Listbox with different indented items

  Is there a way to implement a listbox with different indentation for the listboxitems that are bound to a XML The indentation looks like something shown below :- Item 1 Item 2 Item 3 Item 4 Item 5 I tried using data template to customise the layout but there is no way to create a different indentation for different items. Any clues for implementing this thank you. Do you really require the behavior of a list box If not I'd say you should use a stylized TreeView instead since it provides the hierarchical format you're looking for. However, if you require the behavior of lis ...Show All

• Visual Studio LFrame.SetFramePos returns E_NOTIMPL in VS2003

  I'm trying to set the location of a toolframe created with FvsUIShell.CreateToolWindow then make the call int i =LFrame.SetFramePos((VSSETFRAMEPOS) 0x00000043, ref G,0,0,100,100); the value of i is 0x80004001 which when I look up in NativeMethods = E_NOTIMPL Why is this,  should I be doing something different Hi Bill, unfortunately, the SetFramePos only supports SFP_fSize and SFP_fMove. (check the documentation under VSSETFRAMEPOS)  You'll need to use the registry keys to set the style to SFP_fFloat (0x3) For SFP_TabNext (0x40) it is documented under VSSETFRAMEPOS as obsolete ms-help://MS.VSCC.2003/MS.VSIP.2003/v ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tab order on document windows

  I'm creating a document window in the VS 2005 SDK, with a .NET UserControl on it. Everything's OK except I can't tab from control to control. Say I have two text boxes on my UserControl. I set focus to TextBox1 and press the tab key. The machine beeps at me. You can only move to TextBox2 by using the mouse. Anybody have any ideas what I'm doing / not doing to cause this behavior John There is a known bug with Windows Forms where if you host a .NET window (such as a user control) inside of a Win32 window, then tabbing does not properly work. This is more of a .NET problem rather than a Visua ...Show All

• .NET Development fast XML file scan......

  Hello, I am relatively new to XML. I have a project where I need to validate a scanned code against a file. The project is a Windows CE pproject using Compact Framework 1.1. Currently the file is XML but it doesnt have to be. I did it using an XML document and scanning through the nodes, it is pretty fast but not fast enough. The maximum number of elements it has to loop through is 3600 and that takes about 1.5-2 seconds. The customer wants it instantaneous. Here is my code, I would appreciate any insight into a faster way to scan for these values. SQL CE is not an option. 'in a module so the object can be global to my applicatio ...Show All

• SQL Server System.Data from NETCF and System.Data from .NET

  Currently, I have a WinCE application which uses the System.Data from NetCF and System.Data.SqlserverCE from MSSQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition. Now, I'm trying to use the System.Data.Sqlclient but I can't seem to find it in my System.Data. I notice that there are different version which is one from NetCF and one from the MS.Net framework itself. Here's my question: Is it possible for me to use both System.Data or should I only choose one. This is for my attempt to connect also from an SQLServer and connect to the local SQLServerCE as well.
