• Smart Device Development Trap All Key Presses Independent of Focus

  Using Visual C# .NET Compact Framework 1.0, I'm trying to trap all keypresses in a top level System.Windows.Forms.Form whether or not the form has Focus. Basically I want to delegate key events on my own.   The problem is that only the currently Focused Control receives events (KeyPress, KeyDown, etc.). I would like a high level key event manager that peeks (does not consume) all key related events for a Form. Can anyone help me here I looked at the RegisterHotKey API but that is only for C++ and, as the method name implies, that is only for registered keys -- not the entire set of keys. If this is the only way or best w ...Show All

  Hi Guys How would I best resolve this, VS 2K5 is complaing about the values in the case statements and not able to test for object Identity, I don't want to test for object identity I'm looking for values, I know I could add the ToString option after optCurrency.Value.ToString and then put both the "2" and "3" in quotes but that does't seem right either, any thoughts Select Case Me .optCurrency.Value Case 2 Me .optCurrency.Value = CurrencyType.Euros 'load combo box Call LoadFundId(CurrencyType.Euros) Case 3 Me .optCurrency.Value = CurrencyType.Sterling 'load combo box Call LoadFundId(CurrencyType.Sterling) End Selec ...Show All

• Visual C++ about " while ( cin >> string) "

• .NET Development VS2005 and Preprocessor Definition

  Hello, I'm porting a web application from VS7.1 to 2005 but i have a crasy problem. My app will compile in 2 different products (different database queries) depending on a global #define specified in the project's conditional compilation option. But now with VS2005 I don't have a project, and I'm unable to set a global define. Any suggestion on how to fix it I can't set it page by page because pre project is very big and each time i need to check on or the other versions I'll need to change everithing. We have the same problem. It's good to know that the IDE is recognizing the conditional compilation co ...Show All

• Visual C# Which data structure should I use?

  I want to use a data structure in memory that models a many-to-many relationship. For example, one URL links to many other URLs and is linked from many other URLs. I envision this like a database table with two columns, linksto and linksfrom , with a compound PK on both columns. This allows me to get all the URLs a page links to by querying the linksto column, as well as all the pages linking to it by querying the linksfrom column. But I don't want to use an actual database. The simplest answers seem to be either an ADO disconnected DataTable, which I could filter using .Select method or an XmlDocument, ...Show All

• SQL Server MySQL to SQL Server migration

  Hi, I would liked to know the SQL Server equivalent for the below MySQL query : SELECT a.col1, a.col2, max(a.col1) FROM test a, test1 b WHERE a.col2 = b.col2 GROUP BY a.col1 Thanks, Smitha Can you show some sample data and the output for that query in MySQL   I'm not sure how it should behave, given that Col1 is both grouped and in an aggregate function, and Col2 is not even grouped... Very odd... If you can show the input you're using and the output you need, I can help you write a query for it.  Also, please note whether you're using SQL Server 2000 or 2005.   -- Adam Mach ...Show All

  I have a data grid that displays records.  I would like to be able to click on any one of those records and have another form popup to display all the information attributed to that record.

Another may be to have a property on ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Assemblies Should have valid Strong Names

  I am trying to convince the developers in the company that we really should obey this rule. What I thought I would do would be create 2 projects one that calls a dll with a strong name and another that does not call a dll with a strong name. I was then intending to demonstrate that if the dll's got altered the assembly calling the strong named dll would bring up an error message.  I then came unstuck because I discovered that it is possible to get in to the immediate language and remove the public key reference in the assembly that is expecting a strong named dll and remove the public key from the dll as well as make other changes like ...Show All
