• Visual C# Database connection Dilema

  Hi I am working on an application with two main parts. The first part is the database I am connecting to and the second is an activeX control. I am also using SQL 2005 Express as my database server. The way I have incorperated the database into the app is by using a auto-generated dataset and table-adapter and then doing the rest of the coding myself. My app has to do a few simple queries and occationally write some information to the database. The dilema comes from the activeX control. The AX connects to a servlet. This servlet must also connect to the same database as my application, but when the servlet attempts a connection it bounces b ...Show All

• .NET Development Visual Studio 2003 Mixed Mode Debugging Crash

  I have a project that is made up of a mixture of C++ COM dlls and C# COM dlls.  The main executable is a Win32 app.  If I turn on Mixed mode debugging to allow me to debug the C# dll's Visual Studio crashes 100% of the time as it loads the C# dll's.  I noticed that the project uses reference to the .Net framework 1.1, but just before Visual Studio crashes it is loading .Net framework 2.x components. Any idea how to fix this I have both VS 2005 and VS 2003 installed on the PC. Alicia That's not good. This may be a collision of 2 things: 1. VS 2003 can't debug an app that loads the 2005 CLR (V2 ...Show All

• Visual C# Getting name of cd in cdrom

  I can use the Directory and DirectoryInfo to get every bit of information about the files contained on a CD in the drive.  I can use the DriveInfo to get all the specifications about the CDRom with the exception of the Name assigned to the actual CD.  The best I can get is the Drive letter and volume label.  The volume label is not always the same as the cd name.  For example, I have my bluetooth driver CD in at the moment.  The name is KensingtonBTW.  The volume label is something like 09893-0933.  I have been unsuccessful finding a way to get to the "KensingtonBTW" name.

• SQL Server between operator

  Hi, I'm having problems using the between operator in a query statement. Select * from <mytable> where date between @date1 and @date2 The date values with a hour specified, aren't returned. What is the approach you would recommend here   Thx EDIT: by playing with this problem I've figured out I can append the hour to the date like this: <date> between @fromDate + '00:00:00' and @toDate + '23:59:59' this seem to work, but I'm not sure if this is correct Select * from <mytable> where date >= @date1 and date < dateadd(d,1,@date2) or Select * f ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System TFS / MS Project Bug

  When assigning resources in MS Project to a task (existing or a new one), MS Project just shuts down. No warning and no error messages are displayed. It happens every time for every user who is creating a project schedule. This does not occur when I use excel. One difference I did note is that in Project I added reasources via the Company Directory and their names showed up in the assign resources column as the full name. In Excel they showed up as the Windows login name. I don't know if it makes any difference. Jeff In Project if you add resources as the login name do you still see the same problem All work items are tracked using the ...Show All

• Visual Studio Compile BuildItems - Wildcards - RecursiveDir

  Hi, the documentation states for RecursiveDir that "If the Include attribute contains the wildcard **, this metadata specifies the directory that replaced the wildcard to find the item."   In a test project I created a Compile build item with the Include path set to <Compile Include="**\TestClassA.cs" /> and when I load the project and programmatically test for the presence of of the RecursiveDir metadata item, it is present but is set to **\ which is not exactly illuminating.  Am I misunderstanding the documentation when I expect RecursiveDir to be the actual (relative) path to the TestClassA.cs   What wo ...Show All
