• Windows Forms Databound ComboBox with space for selecting None

  Hello everybody, I am trying to build a search form for a new application I am building.  The form has a couple of text fields and some comboBoxes for narrowing search criteria.  My comboBoxes are all databound to show valid values from the database.  The problem is that I would like to have the option of not selecting a value in the comboBoxes. For example suppose I'm building an inventory system: search form has fields Asset#, Description, Make, Model, Supplier. Make, Model, Supplier are databound comboBoxes with valid values from the database. In this situation in order to find and asset I would have to select the appropri ...Show All

• Visual C++ Program runs slower when compiled with Visual Studio 2005 (in Release with optimization)

  Hey, I have a performance problem with the new Visual Studio 2005. My code (which is a genetic algorithm) is 3 times slower when compiled under Visual Studio 2005 compared to when I was compiling it under Visual Studio 2003. With Visual Studio 2003, it used to run in 3.0639 seconds, and now it runs in 9.0031 seconds. I run both code in Release. I tried every optimization option, and adding the /D_SECURE_SCL=0 compiler command to the project options with only minor differences. Is there any other way to get back to the speed Visual Studio 2003 It is a bit absurd to upgrade to a new compiler and get lesser performances. Thanks a lot!!! Antoine ...Show All

• SQL Server Merge Replication - Weird Conflicts for no reason

  Hi. I am using Merge Replication on Sql Server 2005 (which works much better than 2000 by the way) and everything is working great except occassionally I will get some conflict rows for no reason. The same column(s) of the same row was updated at both 'PublishingServerName.DatabaseName' and 'SubscribingServerName.DatabaseName'. The resolver chose the update from 'PublishingServerName.DatabaseName' as the winner. I checked our audit table and in every case there was no one updating the conflicting row(s) on the publisher that day. I have had to submit the losing row (which is the suscbriber) in every case. I am using COLUMN le ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Team Foundation Client - "Error in the application" when connecting.

  Have installed TFC on an XP Pro machine. Machine does not have VSTS or any VS2k5 components installed aside from TFC, .NET 2.0 and anything else TFC requires to operate. Machine is a member of the AD domain that also contains the TFS (MSVS-TFS), however the user usually logged into that machine is not a member of the domain. Somewhat against my expectations, logged in as this user, I can fire up TFC and access TFS just fine. I don't understand why, because this user is unknown to both AD and TFS, but we'll leave that aside for now. I log in as a domain user, who also happens to have God-like permissions in TFS. We can do ANYTHING with this u ...Show All
