• .NET Development This must be a dumb question

  I'm very new to XML and am completely confused by namespaces.  I've created a schema and xml data file but I'm having problems validating the data, I get the error "Visual Studio could not locate a schema for this document".

• Windows Forms Customizing TableLayoutPanelDesigner

  Hello, I'm developing a custom control that is to be used in a custom forms designer that I created. The control should have exactly two cells behaving like cells in a TableLayoutPanel, so I thought I'd build my control as an extension to TableLayoutPanel. Now I need to customize its designer, since I do not need all the design-time options that TableLayoutPanelDesigner offers. Problem is: TableLayoutPanelDesigner is an internal class, and can therefore not be inherited! Now I was wondering what my options are... I was thinking about developing a custom designer from scratch (extending from ParentControlDesigner). How to achieve ...Show All

• Visual Studio Unattended Visual Studio 2003 setup

  I have already tried the unattended setup method explained by Aaron Stebner. https://beta.blogs.msdn.com/astebner/comments/406718.aspx But this creates a totally silent setup. No progress bar, no notification of any reboots and it does not even say when its done. I was hoping that someone knows a different method which atleast tells the user that the setup has completed. Or perhaps something else that can tell the user that setup has completed. ...Show All

• Visual C# How to validate correct Enum name?

  Based upon content in a code table in a database, I want generate an enumeration. However, the code table could contain names that are not valid enum names. Is there a function or a way to "convert" and check these names in order to generate a properer enumeration name. For example, the HumanResources.Department table of the AdventureWorks sample database contains "Engineering" (=ok) and "Tool Design" (=nok). Enum.IsDefined will tell you whether a constant or name is valid for the given enumeration. However as with all Enum methods it uses reflection and will be slow. I pers ...Show All
