• Visual Basic Renamimg an object

  Hi, I noticed that when you rename an object at design time that this is what the code looks like: Private Sub Button1_Click( ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdDecide.Click Now I renamed my command button cmdDecide. I'm used to VB6 (using VS2005) now. In VB6 the buttons name normally came after the private sub but here I see it still has the generic name that it was given by VB 2005. I do notice that the name I gave it comes after the handle event. Is this right and if I want to refer to it in another piece of code would it respond to the cmdDecide name. Thanks...Newbie ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Program not working with pix?

  Hi, I am trying to profile a Dx app with pix. The app is large and takes a few seconds to load up, but it otherwise works fine at about 5 frames per second. I recently added some shaders that made it run this slow which is why I'm profiling. Problem is, is that on pressing the pix start experiment button it doesn't run properly. It just loads a blank frame window and then nothing happens. I assume the profiling hasn't started as I set the trigger to the key ctrl+s (which I havn't had a chance to press). In any case I've given it some time and I thought the idea was that the program was to run at rougly normal speed until the trigger was a ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Dramatic memory leak in DrawText

  I've been banging my head against the wall for the last few days trying to track down the source of a rather big memory leak in my Direct3D-application. Turns out the culprit seems to be the DrawText function. Let me explain exactly what happens: I'm using a variable width truetype font (Times New Roman) created through D3DXCreateFont. I'm using this in various parts of my application, but the part where the problems are easiest to notice is in my custom UI textboxes. I use a function called InsertText to add new characters to the printed string, and everything I initialize is cleaned up properly afterwards. The problems only truly beg ...Show All

• SQL Server Groupings in Matrix Layout?

  Hello, I am trying to come up with a Matrix report using RS 2005 that looks like this one below. I have row data: question, columns data: Ethnicity and Gender, detail data: Gender average response and Ethnicity average reponse. I utlilized Report Wizard to create a report in a Matrix format , however I wasn't able to have Gender and Ethnicity column on the same line. The report wizard groups columns so Gender is a subset of Ethnicity or Ethnicity is a subset of Gender. How can is solve this issuee so that Gender and Ethnicity data is presented in a Matrix format and Gender and Ethnicity are not part of each other. Thank you! ...Show All

• Visual Basic Referencing Controls created at runtime

  Ok, this has really got me stumped, think im slightly out of my depth as far as this is going but determind to make it work. Have created a Windows application that, on a button press adds several new controls. to the form. Some of these are text box's that I need to reference in my code, and get there data in to an external file. Also to make it difficult my control names are autoincrementing so I dont have any problems referencing. I tried writing a for loop to loop thru my increments reading the data out into a difrnt rich txt box that I would then call the save file procedure on. That didnt work because I was trying to call a .t ...Show All

• Windows Forms How do I get a static background image in a ListView

  I've got a nifty little program written in C# 2.0, that has a ListView as one of it's primary controls. It takes up some 3/4 of the form. I've got a background image in it, so it looks good on the load of the form, but when the ListView is scrolled, the image scrolls with the text. Everyone I've talked to at Microsoft about it has told me that it makes sense to have a static background image, and they aren't sure why it isn't like that, but nobody can tell me how to get it. I've even went so far as to override the paint event to give it a transparent background, and dropping an image into a control behind it, but apparently that requires a l ...Show All

• SQL Server Adding parameters to a report model

  I have a report model (.smdl) that I want to pass a parameter to from a url.  The parameter would drive what data was available to the user in the data source view.  I am able to do this in a standard report but can't find a way to add a parameter to the report model .dsv.  I tried adding a where statement and it says that I have to declare the parameter, when I try to declare the parameter it says that the Declare construct is not recognized.
