Visual Basic binding source problem
I create a dataset with about 3000 rows of data from MSAccess. It is bound to a bindingsource " Private bsItems As New BindingSource".

I compacted and repaired the access datatable and the table can be accessed fine with other program ...Show All

Visual Studio Team System install prompting for login
So, after having nothing but problems with installing a Dual Server setup, I decided to take the easy way out and try a Single Server setup. As luck would have it, Single Server is turning out to be just as big a pain as the Dual Server install. Towards the end of the Team Foundation Server install, I'm being prompted for login credentials. The title of the box is "Log on" and the text above the User Name says "Connecting to Team Foundation Server". There's no option to select a domain so I'm going to try just entering the username in the form "domain\pre_tfsservice" where domain is the domain the tfsservice account lives. ...Show All

Visual Basic Painting User Control in a DataGridViewCell
If you've read my previous thread then you'll know that I'm creating a user control that consists of a TextBox and a DateTimePicker. This control allows the user to pick a date, which is then displayed in the TextBox. The advantage of this (over just using a DateTimePicker), is that the user can delete the date string in the TextBox and leave it blank if no date is required. Anyway, in my previous thread I had an error with trying to hook this new control up to a DataGridViewCell. However I have solved this error, but have now stumbled into a new problem that seems to be giving me even more grief. I'm very new to working with user control ...Show All

Visual Basic Round function
I'm hoping that someone is able to clarify for me just what the Round function in VB does. According to the help file, Math.Round( value , digits ) returns a number which is value , rounded to the number of significant digits requested. I must be misunderstanding just what this means, because the results I get are unexpected. For instance, for Round(12.3456,3) I would expect to get 12.3 (i.e. 12.345 rounded to 3 digits). Or, for Round (1.23456E-15,3) I expected 1.23E-15 but I get 0.0. Rather than digits being the number of significant digits in the result (as stated in the help files) it seems to be the power of the rightmost digit in the r ...Show All
Windows Forms Determining max size of Image in PictureBox (.NET 2.0)
I have a PictureBox with Docking set to Fill. I would like to find the dimensions of the rectangle that the PictureBox "Fills". In .NET 1.1, pictureBox1.height and pictureBox1.width properties define those dimensions. In .NET 2.0, I find that the the height and width properties of the PictureBox defines the height and width of the image itself. In other words, the height and width properties no longer reflects the maximum space availiable to display the image. How do I find those dimensions in .NET 2.0 It can't be the height width of the parent control, as Anchoring instead ...Show All
