• Windows Forms VS2005: ToolStripContainer NullReferenceException when moving ToolStrips; ToolStripPanel.MoveInsideContainer()

  Hello, When using VS2005 July CTP, I am getting a System.NullReferenceException when attempting to (a) move or (b) show a hidden ToolStrip that is embedded inside a ToolStripContainer. The crash even happens at design time when using the Designer to position (hence, move) the ToolStrip inside its ToolStripContainer. I'm even getting this same runtime exception when referencing the Visible property on a hidden ToolStrip that's embedded inside a ToolStripContainer! Is this a known VS2005 July CTP bug, and has it been fixed in the RTM builds Thank you, --Mike P.S. Stack Trace Below "   at System.Windows.Forms.ToolStripPanel.MoveInsi ...Show All

• Visual Basic ADO/Access Questions

    I've had a moderate amount of of experience with access databases in vb6. We'd declare a file system object and from that declare a workspace and from that a record set descriptor. One could picture and understand what was happening. VS2005 is different though. You could create and delete tables and define them dynamically. VS2005 seems to be different. It seems that things are done up front in the IDE Almost as if the relationships are drawn. Instructions are to click on this and do that. One creates table adapters and and dataadapers and with these apparoaches everything seems quite removed from what really happening. Al ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL Authentication issue

  I have a SQL 2005 Developer Edition server which was configured to accept connections using both SQL and Windows Integrated authentication and this has worked great for some time now.  Recently, however, it has started generating an error 18452 "The user is not assoicated wit ha trusted SQL Server connection," error message whenever I attempt to connect using SQL Server authentication.  When I check the server to see if it is still configured to accept both Windows Integrated and SQL Authentication (properties on the server, security page), the entire server authentication section is greyed out and neither "Windows Authentication m ...Show All

• Windows Forms Trouble copying files to network folder

  I am getting an error when trying to copy a file over to a network folder.  The file being copied is only a couple megs, and there is 25GB free on the network drive it's being copied to.  From the looks of it the user has the appropriate permissions setup to write to that folder. P.S. We are using Windows Explorer in XP Pro SP2, and going to a Server 2003 server.  The file is actually a JPEG and if the user opens the image and does a "file save as" he can save it to the folder no problem, just can't copy via Win Explorer. Any Ideas  I'm stumped.... Thanks! The error message I'm receiving is "There is not enough free ...Show All
