• Windows Forms Databinding and refill single row in datagrid from database

  Hello, I have 2 questions: 1. Databinding to a variable: I have a bindingsource that is bound to several controls in a windows form. Now, I would like to have access to some of the values without having to bind them to a control. The way I have achieved this is to create a public property in my windows form and bind that - but this seems like the worlds biggest HACK :-) Code: int id; public int ID { get { return id; } set { id = ...Show All

• SQL Server Saving ODBC password

  I have an app that uses ODBC for connection. Everytime the users log in it prompts the user to enter a password. Is there any way (reg key entery ) for the password to be saved so the user is not prompted Thanks MPM No, I'm sorry you can't do that. This is a security issue, since someone may gain access to your registry information, and thereby uncover your password. Even if you modified your ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro error registrated COM object as MULTI-THREADED COM SERVER DLL

  Hi! on Visual FoxPro 6.0 I created COM object (my_com.dll) as MULTI-THREADED COM SERVER DLL. but when I try registrated COM object I got the error regsvr32 my_com.dll "DllRegisterServer in my_com.dll failed. Return Code was: 0x80004005" Why That tells me it registers successfully using vfp6R.dll(which single-threaded uses) but not the MT version, vfp6t.dll.  So, the problem apparently is with vfp6t.dll.  Check it's vers ...Show All

• Visual C++ include guards gray out code

  It appears that there is a bug with how the VC8 IDE detects and grays out excluded code.  When using standard inclusion guards, like so: #ifndef HEADER_INCLUDED_ #define HEADER_INCLUDED_ // code here #endif ...all of the code between the inclusion guards turns gray.  Until this is fixed, is there a way to disable graying out excluded code   RITZ wrote: You could use #pragma once for now ...Show All

• Visual Basic Full Module View?

  How can I turn off the "Full Module View" in VB2005 like in VB6 Thanks Procedure View is not supported in Visual Basic 2005.  We've heard requests ( http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com/productfeedback/viewfeedback.aspx feedbackid=38767cc3-834e-4ecd-9656-995c1756ac48 ) for this recently and will be looking into adding it for a future release but I can't make any promises at this point.  Feel free to add a vote for this su ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Recording & Populating Form Fields

  The UIApp issue that we were having can be attributed to one thing: the test is not grabbing certain hidden form values (such as __EVENTARGUMENT) during runs. During recording, it assigns extraction rules. However, when the tests are then run, it is not always extracting these values that are passed in the POST. No javascript manipulation is taking place. The test simply isn't grabbing the values.  I have found a tool that grabs and shows ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Convenience question: global setting of panelitem margins

  If I have a panel, like the uniformgrid or the stackpanel, I regularly do not want the items within it to be next to eachother, but I want a margin around them. I set the margin for each individual item. I can not find a fast way to set these globally. That would be really convenient though for quick layouts. I'd love to see a property like 'ElementMargin' on the stackpanel that will set that margin around each element it shows. Well, d ...Show All

  Hi.

Can someone from Microsoft confirm this dependency and reveal any future plans to expand the supported environment for .NET 2.0 2 ...Show All
