Visual Studio Express Editions Using a couple of special characters
For christmas, I made a "flash card" program in C# for my brother. The program basicly loads a spanish word and an english word from a text file and displays one after another (as in a flash card). It all words very well, except when there are characters such as n or e ... it displays them as blanks. With all the functionality stripped out this is what I am doing: TextReader textReader = new StreamReader(@"c:\dictionary.txt"); String line = textReader.ReadLine(); theLabel.Text = line; Now, my question is how make the program support a few of the characters that are currently not being supported. The text file is made in n ...Show All
SQL Server Data type conversions
I am just starting to lean and use SSIS to get data from an AS400 DB2 database. (I also posted this question to the SSIS newsgroup). It all works for columns that are just a data type of Character, however I am having a problem with the Numeric data type. I keep getting an error "column cannot be inserted because the conversion between types DT_NUMERIC and DT_R8 is not supported." In SQL, what do I need to declare the column datatype as I have tried several. Thanks for the information. ...Show All
Visual Studio Matrix :: The background Image
Hi, I've got a Matrix and I've added a sub total row to it. This is like a footer of the matrix and I've to add a background image to it. I tried applying the BackgroundImage property to the MatrixRow but it added the background image to the row header only. I've got 3 columns and the totals for these columns appear without the background image. So I tried applying the BackgroundImage property at Subtotal field. It still doesn't work. But when I applied the BackgroundColor to the Subtotal field, the background color is displayed for all the columns in the subtotal row. How can I set the BackgroundImage Now I've added a sub ...Show All
.NET Development Web service on my localhost
Hi all, I want to give others to call a webservice on my localhost. I mean, I want my PC active like internet server to internet clients. Is it possible. Please help... It should be possible but is also depending on what operating system you have installed. I am using Windows XP Professional SP2 and can run local webservices for remote usage. The firewall needs to be opened and IIS with .NET set up must be installed. If you can access it locally it should be reachable from remote clients if security settings permit it. If you do not have a server operating system there is a limit on the number of concu ...Show All

Smart Device Development File I/O
I'm trying to use file I/O functions to log debugging statements that I can view on the handheld. The code I got from msdn seems to do the trick except when I open the file on the handheld, PocketWord only displays the first character I write to the file. If I copy the file to the desktop, everything I wrote to the file appears as it should. My code for all of my file I/O is as follows: BOOL LogStartup ( void ) { HANDLE file; TCHAR szFileName [MAX_PATH]; memset (szFileName, 0, MAX_PATH * 2); wcscpy (szFileName, TEXT ( "\\folder\\logfile.txt" )); file = CreateFile (szFileName, GENERIC_WRITE, FILE_SHARE_ ...Show All
