• Software Development for Windows Vista What is the best way to report workflow progress data?

  Hi, I want a progress bar in my application that shows the progress of a running workflow that is sending 1000+ SMS messages. What is the best way to do this Should I create a "ExternalDataExchangeService" and call this from the workflow or should I create a "TrackingService" and use the "TrackData" method of the workflow to send data about the progress Thanks! Ole, It depends who you are sending the information to. If you are sending it to someone who monitors the integration than by all means I would use the tracking services information (and SMS is probebly a bad way to do it because ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions you must have a license to use this activex control

  I'm very new to C# so this is probably a simple thing. I am working on a project that uses an activex control and some other third party dlls. Whenever I click on the main form window I get an error telling me I must have a license to use this activex control. Of course, I do have the license but it isn't doing it's trick. Some background.... The sample source I'm working on was created in an earlier version of visual studio. The sample was "upgraded" when I loaded it. The sample does compile and run just fine but I can't edit the main form because of the error. I'm using visual studio 2005 express for C#. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Mscomm, Serial ports and bit manipulation

  I have just started to investigate the replacement of some seriously old kit with a Windows XP version. I need to read and write data between either a usb/serial port on a new Windows XP machine and connect it to an old controller via an rs-232 cable. Data is passed between the two in Ascii format and can be as little as one character at a time or up to several hundred characters at a time. I will need to be able to interpret some of the data down to the bit level on receipt. Having read some of the threads here, it would appear the use of MSCOMM is a viable solution for the serial port communication as the transmissions are in a set ...Show All
