• SQL Server Cannot connect to a named instance of SQL 2000 or 2005

  Hi, I am struggling connection to a named instance of SQL 2000 (SP4) from another machine but without any success. I get an error message saying that the server does not exist or access is denied .   The security configuration in this named instance is the same as the default instance (also 2000) and the remote machine can connect to it successfully.   I also configured the aliases in Client Network Utility in the client machine and set the server (machine) name and the port number used by the instance - but no help.   I use osql and Query Analyzer to connect to it, but I cannot connect by any o ...Show All

• Windows Forms Before posting, please confirm this is a relevant forum

  This Forum is for questions related to the ClickOnce Deployment Framework that ships with VS 2005 (.Net Framework 2.0) If your application is installed by clicking on an .application file - it IS a ClickOnce application. If your application deploys fine on the machine but is throwing an exception on execution it is most likely an Application issue on that particular machine and not a deployment issue. The easiest way to confirm this is to just copy the Application locally into a folder and launch it. If you still see the same exception - you need to debug the application not its deployment. If this is not forum for you browse ...Show All

• .NET Development Visual Studio 2003 Mixed Mode Debugging Crash

  I have a project that is made up of a mixture of C++ COM dlls and C# COM dlls.  The main executable is a Win32 app.  If I turn on Mixed mode debugging to allow me to debug the C# dll's Visual Studio crashes 100% of the time as it loads the C# dll's.  I noticed that the project uses reference to the .Net framework 1.1, but just before Visual Studio crashes it is loading .Net framework 2.x components. Any idea how to fix this I have both VS 2005 and VS 2003 installed on the PC. Alicia That's not good. This may be a collision of 2 things: 1. VS 2003 can't debug an app that loads the 2005 CLR (V2 ...Show All

• Visual C# Multicast delegates with IEnumator and yield return?

  Hello, I am trying do set up a multicast delegate to split my yield returns for a WebTest I am writing, but only the last delegate is firing.  Is this a known problem, by design, or am I doing something wrong Thank you, --ben hii all, First time I am just learning Delegates in c#.

• Visual Studio Express Editions SerialPort_DataReceived to RichTextBox control in VB2005

  Hi I have been having a difficult time finding the proper way to pass string data that arrived thru the serial port by way of the DataReceived event , to a RichTextBox control on the main form. Moving from VB6 to VB2005 without using the automatic conversion helpers, has been more difficult that i hoped. I have examined lots of newsgroup posts, looked at posted example code and still I am having trouble. Some examples work, but appear to be automatically converted VB6 apps with Definstance properties and other items. I would rather understand the proper way to implement this starting from scratch ,using the form designer and the Ser ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions DotNetNuke install problem or too many starter kit installs

  The DotNetNuke Starter Kit 4.0.2 does not show up in the "My Templates" of the "New Web Site" window of VWD (An icon titled "DotNetNuke Web App..." per the documentation). I am wondering if there is a limit to the number of "New Web Site" templates that can be added and show up in the "My Templates". I have installed previously eight (8) starter kits and ASP.NET Site templates. With the "Search online templates... icon, that makes nine evenly spread icons in the "My Templates" section of the "New Web Site" window of VWD. All installed correctly except the DotNetNuk ...Show All

• Visual Basic getting files from FTP

  Hey, I got a Windows application that processes Excel files and transfers all data to a DB. These Excel files at the moment are being sent to Malta from Germany via FTP........ the user copies the files to another location (as the FTP directory is not accessible) and then browses for them using an Open File Dialog.... the application then does the processing needed! I would like to automate this a bit more. 1. How can I access the FTP server (NOT anonymously!) 2. How can I check if the folder is empty 3. How do I retrieve files (preferably removing them from the FTP server and placing them in another location) Thanks for your help ...Show All
