• Visual C# Sound Recording and Mixing

  Hi I am fairly new to C# but not programming. I need to write an application that takes any number of sound files(.wav) and mixes them down into 1 mp3 file. This should be fairly simple but I have been searching for some info and can't seem to have any luck. Maybe c# isn't the best for this. I just need to have a web page run the application and since I am most comfortable with .NET I figured I could write a C# dll to do this for me. What the ap ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Porting app with CEditView

  I had an application that used a CEditView running on PPC 2003. I am porting this app to WM v5. Since CEditView has disappeared from VS 2005, I've had to implement a workaround. I am using a CView that instantiates a CEdit. This appears to work except I have to handle the Cut and Copy actions in my view class and call the CEdit's Cut and Copy methods. This seems to work well. I am having problems with the ID_FILE_SAVE and ID_FILE_SAVEA ...Show All

• Windows Forms UserControl, child control, and scrolling

  Greetings, I have a custom user control.  Because I have a complex hierarchy of child object that can be drawn to the screen (potentially thousands of objects) I opted not to derive them all from Control/UserControl for various reasons.  Instead, th ...Show All

• Visual C# Various functionality missing from Visual C# 2005 beta2?

  I can't find code definition window, some of the refactoring stuff, and some of the debugger stuff.  And they appear to be missing from customize-commands too. I did notice something strange when i was messing around the settings importer/exporter.  One of the times I was playing with,  there was a bunch of 'key' errors related to this functionality stated above. I seem to be missing functionalit ...Show All

• .NET Development Config file for DLLs

  Hello All ! I have some test DLLs (5) which all references a common DLL. The common DLL needs a specific value in the config file. So in my 5 test DLLs, I add a config file with the value needed for the common one. Of course it would be simpler if I can add only one config file (for the common DLL) but this doesn't seem to work. Is this possible or not Thanks, Jarod except in the case of unit tests. You can add a config file to your test ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) NB: Keith Farmer doesn't work for Microsoft.

  I just read the specs, play with the toys, and comment where I think I'm either 1) helpful, 2) opinionated, or 3) encountering J2EE hell. Just in case anyone else was under the impression I was involved with LINQ's development. ... though I might be convinced. :) This is clearly off-topic. We know who you are ;-) ...Show All

• Visual Basic auto signature and visual basic 2003

  Hi I've developed a console application that will automatically generate a new e-mail message and populate the "to", "subject" and "body" with data from a simple text file. (data is passed to the text file from a third party application and a batch file) what it won't do though is automatically add an auto signature even if this is specifically set within outlook. All other instances of mail creation add the signature so i'm assuming ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System script fails after new version of software pushed

  I am currently trying to create tests to test microsofts new CRM application.  I have recorded numerous web tests, but they will stop working after a change is made to the application.  As far as I can tell it is linked to an import of the configuration from another server.  When the script does a form post of the information submitted in the test, it gets back an error stating that the form has expired.  I can re-record the ...Show All

• SQL Server Lookup task with NOLOCK

  I have an SSIS package that unpivots data - each row from the source becomes 20-24 rows in the destination db. In the dataflow it looks up some type-data IDs before inserting into the destination table. The whole process flies through the data at an incredible rate, however I find that the final commit on data insertion takes a very long time, and two of the lookup tasks remain yellow throughout. It appears that there may be a contention issue b ...Show All

• SQL Server Avoiding deadlock

The sp just needs to add a new row or update an existing row with this data. I tried to accomplish this with code somethign like this. (The table I'm updating is called Client, and its primary key is ClientId, which is a value passed into the sp from the client.) IF (SELEC ...Show All
