• SQL Server Lookup transform not finding blank match

  I am having problems with a lookup transformation. I have a row in my lookup table for blank ('') source data. If I test the join using SQL the match is made, but the Lookup transform doesn't consider it a match and sends it to error output. Is there a property that I don't have set correctly or something else I am forgetting Check out http://blogs.conchango.com/kristianwedberg/archive/2006/02/22/2955.aspx ...Show All

• Visual Studio How to make VS.NET 2003 open .cpp with my custom editor

  Hello, I have reviewed the whole forum, but had no luck in finding an answer. I have a custom editor that I developed, which hosts the core editor and extends it. It is associated with the "*" extension, so it works great with all text files. I can configure the editor as the "default editor", and when I open a file or double-click it on the solution, the environment launches my editor. Great! The problem areas are debugging and going to erro ...Show All

• Visual Studio IVsHiColorItem caching

  I've implemented an editor line marker that implements IVsHiColorItem to allow the full color range. This part works. Now the trick is when I change that color, I've found that the GetColorData member is only called seemingly once per-marker-per-editor-class, so color changes don't take effect until a VS restart. I've tried clearing the font and color cache with IVsFontAndColorCacheMangager.ClearAllCaches, and this didn't have any affect ...Show All
