• Visual C++ vs 2005 pro final version hang using vs 2003 c++ project

  Open a VS 2003 c++ project with VS 2005 pro, convert it as requested then vs 2005 hang continously no matter what i do: edit a file, build etc. The error seems to be in mfc runtime dll vers. 8. I'm crazy. help The best and only way to deal with these types of problems is to send your source code and project into Microsoft (if it's not confidential code).  This way they can reproduce the problem in-house, and possibly make you a QFE (quick fix engineering patch).  I don't think there will be patch or service packs for many months (if at all), based on past experience of VC 2002 and 2003. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Visual studio professional+inbuilt SQL Server Express

  I am a student who downloaded the VS2005 Professional from the MSDN Academic Alliance website. I believe this has a SQL Server Express inbuilt. The setup went off fine, but now I am stuck because I do not see any admin tools (to create databases), or anything like a query analyzer. How do I go forward Also, I tried to see, if i could add features (assuming these admin tools werent installed the first time around). But the setup does not show SQL Server as one of the components now. Microsoft is still working on a graphical admin tool for SQL Express, which is available as a CTP right now: http://www.microsof ...Show All

• Windows Forms DataGridView Object Data Sources

  Hi All, I have tried to use a datagridview in a windows form  to render a list of wine objects.  The wine object contains a Region Object.  I want the datagridview to to display two columns, Wine.Name and Region.Name.  I have created a BindingList of Wine objects which is then bound to a datagridview.  Using autogenerated columns, the Region.Name column renders as just its type name - not the data... What am I doing wrong Public Class Wine    Dim _name As String    Dim _origin As Region    'Wine Name    Public Property Name() As String  & ...Show All

• SQL Server Excel and SQL

  Hi! I have an CSV file that looks like this: username1 password1 username2 password2 username3 password3 Usernames are in the A column, and passwords are in B column. Next, I have a table Users with columns Username and Password. My task is this: I have to go through the CSV file and update the password for the specified username. The file is always in the same location. I first wanted to do a DTS from the csv to a temporary table, and then do a regular update, but if there is a way to do this directly from csv to update, without the temp table, that would be great. Thanks! Hi, you ca ...Show All

• SQL Server columns_updated() -- working backwards

  Hello all...another new guy question here... I'm working with an UPDATE trigger and the COLUMNS_UPDATED() function.  I *believe* I understand the basics of this ... on a table w/ 8 columns or less.  I understand the issue of using a substring to check a table w/ 9 or more columns. OK, here's the scenario:  myTable has 8 columns.  If I map this out it looks like: Value     1      2      4      8      16      32       ...Show All

• Visual C++ Capturing /showIncludes output

  Hi. I'm trying to capture the output of cl /showincludes . The docs say that this goes to stderr , but that seems not to be the case. In a 'normal' console window, the output goes to stdout and I can use cl -c -showIncludes f.cpp >includes When run from VisualC++ (visual c++ 2005 express edition), cl insists on sending its output to the Output window, and no amount of redirection seems to be able to pursuade it to do otherwise.

  Hi,  I have added four menu items in my .ctc file. have also added one bitmap file. but my menu items doesnt shows the icons on it. whereas the same example is working fine with the file generated by the wizard. Please help. thanks in advance. One other thing to keep in mind, is that you may need to run DevEnv.exe with the /rootsuffix Exp /setup switches again. I've run into scenarios where I've changed/added icons to my commands and toolwindows after the fact, and you need to run DevEnv with that /setup switch to clear the cached images.

• Visual Studio Express Editions I need to count by ascii characters. Seems tricky!

  Hey guys, I'm doing an expirement and I need to basically "count" but using a set of ascii characters. I'm having a heck of time. And using VB.NET Express. For example, in Decimal, you count 1,2,3...8,9,10. As you know, once your first character reaches 9, a new character is added, 0, to the left, and then you start over counting the 1st character such as 10,11,12...18,19,20. Each time the rightmost character reaches 9, the next one over goes up one, and if another char doesn't exists, it is created. Okay, I need to do this but instead of doing it with numbers 0 - 9, I need to do it with 93 ascii characters! Ranging from chr ...Show All

Hi Sivaji, Based on my understanding, you want to read outlook 2000 items in .NET. If I misunderstood, please feel free let me know. If we did not use MAPI, we need to go the COM way.
