• Visual Studio Team System Solution problems with RC and Beta 3

  Maybe it's just me, but can you no longer add a solution to source code control when creating the solution (or project) Did something break with the beta 3     The option should still be available. Did you install the Team Foundation Client as well as Visual Studio 2005 RC1 If so, are you connected to a Team Foundation Server when you start the New Project wizard Cheers, Adam ...Show All

• SQL Server Oddball SQL calculation query - any Gurus up to this??

  OK, so I have a situation where the Client gets money from activites based on mileage. The further from 'home', the greater the mileage rate is. The distance per stopover is measured from wither home, or the last stopover, making it a continuous interval. Dependinig on the load size, the rates will increase or decrease as well. Assume the following are skeleton table structures. Table structures assume that appropriate keys are in place as 'Keyfields': Table1Fields: <Table one holds the actual user-entered data per Size> Key Keyfield(s), <keys to Table2's Keyfields> Size Varchar, DistanceFrom Number, (all ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro how to send control codes via "???" to receipt printer

  Hi All, I am writing a POS system and using a receipt printer (Epson TM-U220D). Unfortunately the printer drivers from Epson didn't work & hence I resorted to using the Windows Generic/Text printer. I am using a series of to output to the printer, which works fine. My problem is that I need to do some form of simple formatting on the receipt, e.g. make company name bold, etc. My question is, how do I send the control codes to achieve the above Thanks all. Another possibility is to include the printer code in curled braces: "Plain text, {27}{69}bold{27}{70}, plain again" This syntax is the reaso ...Show All

• Visual C++ Tiered library dependencies under VS2005

  We have a project that is structured like this: Program depends on Library 1a which depends on Library 2a, Library 2b, etc. The dependencties for the above are set by right clicking each project and selecting Project Dependencies... and selecting the projects immediately below the projects in the dependency tree.

• Visual Basic ComboBox

    I have a combobox question, two parts: When using a combobox, normally the items are added to the drop down list by using items.add.  Is there a way to have the list of items but not be hard coded into the code or require some type of database   In another language I messed with, there was a string table that would be a part of the application but provided a central location for list items. Is there a way to associate items in a listbox or combobox with an alternative id... example... Alaska... AK... North Carolina... NC... in a list box... the full name of the states would be listed, but the abbreviations of ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Transparent textures?

  If i have a simple polygon with a transparent PNG as texture, how do i make other polygons behind the transparent polygon visible through the first one. Right now all transparancy on the png get the same color as the one i specify in device.Clear(...); What you usually do is render the solid objects first. Then you render the less opaque objects. What you will also need to do is set some render states for the coloring of the pixels to make use of the alpha component of your pixels. Device.RenderState.SourceBlend = Blend.SourceAlpha; Device.RenderState.DestinationBlend = Blend.InvSourceAlph ...Show All
