• Windows Forms DataGridViewComboBoxColumn - Display vs. Actual (data) value

  Hi All, Is there a way to specify display value and actual (data) value for a DataGridViewComboBoxColumn For example, my database table has a column account_type of type NCHAR(1), which is used to store either 'C' for Credit or 'D' for debit.  When the data records are retrieved from the table and displayed on a DataGridViewComboBoxColumn cell, I want it to be displayed as "Credit" or "Debit" respectively.  Vise-versa, when users add a new record, they should be able to select Credit or Debit from the combo box, but the actual data to be saved should be 'C' or 'D' respectively. Thanks in advance Yes - the DataGridViewComboBo ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. How to Determine Dual Head Resolutions

  I have a dual head system with one monitor landscape and the other in portrait mode. It rotates on its base. The driver accomodates this just fine and most applications work without a hitch. The monitors run in independent mode and show up as 2 separate devices in Display Properties. A DX9 program I use now has "dual monitor support." It implemented this support by mirroring the first monitor onto the second monitor full screen. In my case, this makes everything sideways on my second monitor. The program makes no allowance to rotate the image. What would be the correct way to determine the resolutions and orientations of the ...Show All

  There is no AppWizard for Visual Studio 2005 in DirectX 9 SDK installation (only for earler version of Visual Studio). Can I download wizard for VS 2005 separately (without all DirectX SDK) or edit avialable wizard for using this in VS 2005 There has not been a DirectApp wizard in the DirectX SDK for at least 1 year now.
