• Visual Studio Parameters / credentials?

  Hi,    I'm getting an "A parameter or data source credential is missing a value. Prompting for this value has been disabled. Supply a value or enable prompting." error when I try to show a report in a Windows Form with Local Processing.    The "ShowParametersPrompt" and "ShowCredentialsPrompt" are turned on, but maybe the problem is I don't have a way to "link" the datasource parameters (its a stored procedure tableadapter) with Report Parameters in the report designer, as there is no DataSource pane in the .rdlc designer    Also, I had to change to a filesystem path for the LocalReport property ...Show All

• Visual Basic VB2005 Icons for Binding Navigator

  The new data features in VB2005 are great, but when you need to do more than just form fill, I have found it to be too restricting.  For example, I need to find the next available ID and fill it in, along with uploading pictures etc.  In the end, I gave up trying to do it the 'easy' way and have gone back to my trusted VS 2003 way (creating the data adapter and dataset etc).  My question is, the binding navigator has good looking icons (better than I have created) and as some other forms still use the new method, I need this to graphically mirror the other forms to give a consistent look and feel. I pasted a binding navigator ...Show All

• Windows Forms Problem with datagridview in VS2005 (C#)

  Hi, I've implemented a datagridview in a form and have create the event RowEnter in order to catch the events when changing a row, in this event i output the currentrow index. This works however i remark some strange behaviour. When launching the form the currentIndex is 0 (thus the first row). When i navigate towards the 2nd row the event is launched however the row index remains the index of the previous one. And this behaviour remains while i further navigate in the datagridview. Did i use the wrong event for outputting the cell value of the row that is selected on the screen Tnx in advance for the answers, Kind regards, In your ...Show All

• Visual Studio ToolBoxItems.Add does nothing

  Hello, Using Whidbey Beta 2, I'm trying to add a control to the toolbox using a windows forms application. All goes well, and no error found, but the control does not appear after the application finishes, even after I restart VS.NET. I'm also adding a new toolbox tab, which works fine. First I tried using the sample code provided in the documentation, but it din't compile because it expects an object instead of a class. Since I had this working with VS 2003, I borrowed some that seems to work, at least for creating the tab. The code I'm using is the following: Dim latestDTE As Type latestDTE = Type.GetTypeFromProgID( "Visu ...Show All
