• Visual FoxPro VFP9.0 Data Access from .NET

  Hi all I am trying to acces VFP 9.0 Data from a asp.net web site and here is the problem In the visual web developer express when I hit "View in browser" The web page comes up correctly then I copy it to \\localhost\vfptest and open it in the browser and get an error indicating that vfpoledb cannot find/open the specified file. So then I go back to VWD and set the project to the IIS directory directly and hit "view in browser and it will display correctly without the error so the difference seems to be if the page is accessed as either // localhost/vfptest (creates error) or // localhost:1117/ vfptest using the integrate ...Show All

• Visual C++ no compile tool is associated with the file extension

  I have been using C++ for a long time, but have just recently been forced onto a new compiler. I've installed MSDN and Visual C++. Now I can't get anything to compile. So I'm back to the basics with a simple Hello World program. I still get: Cannot compile the file 'c:\c++\HelloWorld\HelloWorld.cpp'; no compile tool is associated with the file extension. Where should I be looking for the compiler settings and what should they look like Have you created a new C++ project and added your code to that It looks to me like you're not creating a new C++ project, or your install is broken.

• SQL Server Going From SQL Server 2000 to 2005

  It's been nightmarish and I need help fast! Customers now have to buy 2005 and we've discovered that the migration isn't smooth. I copied a 2005 and attached to it in 2005. Running under Windows XP Professional, I tried to run our application written in ColdFusion. We discovered that a query fell over (seemingly) having to do with bit datatypes Error: 'Unspecified error occurred on SQL Server. Connection may have been terminated by the server.'), NULLs, or something. A programmer got around it, as a test, by converting all the bit fields in the table to int, which we naturally can't do as a real world solution. I think upgrading the OS, incl ...Show All

• Visual Basic ListBox Populating

  Hello Again! My program is getting ever so close to completion... Right now I have a listbox that needs to be populated with specific data from my sql db, the thing is I need it to grab just specific rows of data with a matching value... I can populate my listbox 2 different ways but not the way I need it done. The first way was the obvious, by clicking on the data bound items and filling in the Data Source, Display member and Value member. The problem with that is it displaying just the first half of the data because there are 3 catagories for that particular column. If I can get it to tell which catagory i want to use then I got it! ...Show All

• .NET Development DNS.GetHostEntry doesn't display the hostname as dns.resolve did

  In a small console application I used DNS.resolve to obtain either the IP-address(es) or hostname depending on the parameter passed (computername or IP address). I've rewrited the little thing in Visual Studio 2005 and so I saw that I needed to use dns.GetHostEntry instead of dns.resolve because the last method has become obsolete. So I did. But when executing the code the behavior is somewhat different: dns.gethostentry doesn't retrieve the hostname if you pass an IP address, were dns.resolve has no problem in showing me the hostname found. Is this a known issue Is there a workarround or solution ...Show All

• Smart Device Development What to use instead of environment variables?

  I'm in a situation where I'm porting some existing software to Windows CE and used environment variables in the original. The idea is to share a common string between dll's in the running process where the "main" dll posted a environment variable FOO=BAR and all other dll's could search and see if FOO was set. The sharing only happend inside the process so two applications wouldn't conflict with each other. Is there a similar way to implement this on CE I could use registry but still it would be an out-proc solution where two running instances could eventually catch things which didn't below to their process.
