• SQL Server SQL Server does not exist or access denied

  Okay...Running SQL Server 2000 & yesterday I was inside of Query Analyzer keying away with no problems.  Exited out of everying like normal, powered my laptop down & life was good. Or so I thought. I started my laptop today & my SQL Server Services Manager shows that my SQL Server is not running. Long story short, I've torn this thing apart and can't figure out why it's not running.  My Client Network Utility has Named Pipes & TCP / IP Enabled.  TCP/IP has port 1433 enables.  As for my named pipes, those are jacked cuz I've tried ...Show All

• Windows Forms Automatic Indentation

  I've having an issue making a RichTextBox automatically indent the next line when the user presses Enter. Right now I check to see if the Enter key has been pressed and if it is (in the KeyPress event of the RichTextBox), I get the previously line with the following code: int PreviousLine = RichTextBox1.GetLineFromCharIndex(RichTextBox1 .SelectionStart) -1; RichTextBox1.Lines[PreviousLine]; This will get me the previous line. From this I cound the amount of space (Tabs and Spaces) at the beginning of the line to determine how much space to insert on the next line. I used the SendKeys method to send tabs and spaces.

• Windows Forms Create a custom DataGridViewColumn for radio buttons

  Hi, In my application, I want to create a custom DataGridViewColumn which contains radio buttons, much like the DataGridViewCheckBoxColumn. I know I should derive from DataGridViewColumn and DataGridViewCell, but I'm not quite clear on how I should proceed. There's so little information on this topic; as far as I know, no MSDN article on this area has been written yet. Hope that somebody here can shed me a light. Thanks a lot. Dotnetjunky Greate article, unfortunately, that solution by Regis did not work for me since it requires that the user turns on "Visual Styles" in the operating syste ...Show All

• Visual C++ GetProcessIoCounters() Problem

  Hi, I'm trying to use GetProcessIoCounters(). I've included the windows.h file (as MSDN says) and Kernel32.lib is in my link-settings too. But when running the program I get the next error: error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol __imp__GetProcessIoCounters@8 I cant understand why!!! (I'm using visual studio 6 on windows XP.) Please H E L P ! You need to install an updated Platform SDK, more recent than the one included with VS6. You can download the latest from  http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx FamilyId=A55B6B43-E24F-4EA3-A93E-40C0EC4F68E5  but I don't think it's compatible with VC6.

• Visual Studio Team System ASP.NET and FxCop

  Does anybody have a guide on what FxCop rules should be enabled/disabled when analyzing an ASP.NET Application Thanks! I'm not aware of any guides, but in general you may encounter violations that simply cannot be fixed because of ASP.NET's bizarre design.  Newer versions of FxCop are better about special-casing ASP.NET situations. For now, when you run into unfixable issues, you can either exclude them, or, if it's particularly annoying, disable the rule.  It might be best to move all your business logic into a Class Library project so you can leave the full FxCop suite enabled at least against ...Show All

• SQL Server SSIS custom component will only partially update in VS causing debugging to fail

  When I try to debug the break points will always say the source code is different from the current version, but the custom component in the GAC has the new version number. The other strange thing is the toolbox will not reset to the original version meaning it will not remove the custom components. The funny thing is after I compile the custom components and restart VS the custom component runs with the new code changes. I can see the new features I added, but the debugger and toolbox still seem to be broken. I have tried the following 1) Reset the tool box. 2) uninstall all my custom dll from the GAC “C:\WINDOWS\assembly ...Show All

  In Beta 2 if the class designer is open and I try to edit the code file, all keyboard control keys input is ignored in the editor.  For example the Tab, Delete, Space keys.
