• Smart Device Development Can eVC++ 4 SP4 be used for Windows Mobile 5.0 development?

  Hi, As stated in the download page of the SP4 for eVC 4: <<Service Pack 4 (SP4) allows existing eVC4 users to target Windows CE 5.0 based devices. >> but the WM05 SDK is currently only for Visual Studio 2005... Any possibilities to use the eVC4 to develop for WM05 best regards Pietro That's correct, you will need eVC3 for PPC2000/2002, but you can throw away eVC4 as long as you don't need it for other CE4.2 non-PPC devices. We thought about attempting to support PPC2000/2002, but the technical and logistical barriers were too high, and would have required us to cut critical features. Cheers! Jeff ...Show All

• Windows Forms Displaying selected items in an unfocused ListView

  Hello, I have the following problem : I want to display the selected items in a ListView even if the ListView isn't focused. As far as I have noticed, in .NET Framework 1.1 the default behaviour is NOT to display them while the ListView control is not focused. Any workarounds Andrei All answers above did not do the trick for me so i spend some hours and came up with the following change on Tanmay D code. Hopefully this helps!

• Windows Forms Refresh Designer at Design Time?

  Hi,   I’ve created a simple user control which resizes its height automatically according to the image size loaded by a user at design time. After loading the image my control resizes but the control selection area doesn’t resize automatically - only when I click on the control. My control also has a custom control designer which restricts the control user to set the user controls height at design time.     Is there any particular reason why this is happening How can I fix this   Thank you, Eric Maroudas.

• Visual Studio Express Editions Moving Data from Sql Server Express to a master Database with Sql Server 2005 in code.

  I have built a Click-Once deployment application that installs SqlServer Express on the intended clients which works pretty well. The question that I have is the database on the clients are created from sql scripts that were generated from a master database, once the client application has completed inserting data how can I move the data from the clients machine running Sql Server Express to a Central Database server running Sql Server 2005. Everything must be done from code which poses an even bigger issue. you can use the SQL Command line tools or the SMO Interface in code to Attach and Detach the data ...Show All

• Visual Studio How to abort a commandline build.

  I am trying to abort a commandline initiated build before it does any work. I have a OnBuildBegin handler that does some checking to see whether to actually build. None of my current approaches work reliably. Invoking Build.Cancel in the handler. As far as I can tell, commands are not availablewhen running in commandline mode. Is that correct, or am I missing something Using the HRESULT for the callback. As far as I can tell, that value is ignored. Hook into CommandEvents.BeforeExecute. I believe the same limitation will apply here as for invoking Build.Cancel. Commands seem to not be accessible (the build is not started via a command). ...Show All
