• Visual Studio Express Editions Adding OWC Components to the ToolBox

  When I tried to add the OWC Pivot Component to the ToolBox by going to the Tools, Choose Toolbox items, I can not add a Pivot Table Component that I can drag and drop. I can see the item listed but it is greyed out. I usually just add the component as a another scripted tag on the page, but to access the component from VS, I think that I need to drag it from the ToolBox to enable the server-side script to access it. I can drag the ...Show All

• Windows Forms DataGridView + RowValidating = Index 4 does not have a value?

  Hello, I recently setup my DataGridView to use the RowValidating event.  However, whenever a user types something in to a NewRow (as to cause the DGV to create a new row and consider the current row's NewRow = false) and then hit escape to cancel the edit, the DataError exception goes nuts.  It keeps spitting out "Index 4 does not exist" in what seems to be an infinite loop. Here is my RowValidating code: private void dg ...Show All

• Visual Studio Error. Failed to load expression host assembly. Trying to use local report manually copied to mapi dir (VSTO project)

  You may see from earlier posts that I'm having difficulty deploying report solutions (VS2005 B2) and VSTO. My VSTO app opens a winform report viewer.  Even very basic reports (no data) fail. My last attempt was to use the report path option.  The first error said the report def was not found in the dir 'C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\MSMAPI\1033', so I manually copied the rdlc file there.  Now I get another error "Proce ...Show All

• .NET Development ShowModalDialog - Select Text

  Is there anyway to select text within a Modal Dialog Box Thanks, Tim I've been searching for an answer to this as well, and the only way that I'm aware of is to put the text in a textbox/textarea and optionally remove the borders of the control. Marking the textbox as "readonly" will cause the text to NOT be selectable though, so users will be able to modify the text in the box. Also, if it's an option, consider ...Show All
