• .NET Development Assemblies in GAC

  Hi all, we need to figure out which version of a dll in the GAC our application is using and I hope someone here can give me at least a hint. Here is the situation: We have several VB.NET assemblies in the GAC and there are several versions of each of these dll's in the GAC. After a recent server rebuild, we found that we have no idea which applications need which version of the dll's. I can recreate the different versions for each dll from version control, since the dlls are small and there is a good version history in the assembly.info files. But the applications that use these dlls do not indicate which version they are looking for. ...Show All

• Windows Forms Windows Forms Datagrid Problem

  Hi, I have a datagrid tied to a dataview.  I want to validate the information that is being entered.  I want to accept only numbers in a column or only letter in another one. I'll really appreciate your help on this matter. Thanks, Roberto Acevedo .Net Programmer Guatemala City, Guatemala Try to state what version of the framework you are working with when asking quesitons.

• Visual Studio Express Editions Formless Application?

  Is there anyway to create an application that (when created) doesn't have a form For example, I would like to create an application that has an icon in the notification bar and have it so that when I double click it a settings form is created. I would prefer not to have the form exist all along and just have it invisible because to my understanding that uses more memory then creating it on demand and the goal of this application is to make it as unobtrusive as possible. Thanks in Advance, Nick Dancer. I'm not sure what this application will be doing but what you're describing sounds like a Wind ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Platform SDK install problems

  I have successfully installed both 2005 Express edition development environment and Visual C++. Now I went to install the core platform SDK. Here are the steps I followed: 1) I downloaded the PSDK files and placed them in a temporary directory on my C drive. 2) I ran the PSDK-Full executable, putting the files into C:\Program 3) I created a directory c:\Program Files\PSDK and moved everything there. (both Visual C++, .Net framework and Visual Studio express are in the c:\Program Files directory in their own directories). 4) I ran setup.exe from the PSDK download and selected to install only the core SDK. 5) The program created a direc ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Any document about extensibility of profile, coverage and so on?

  We will try to support profile, coverage and so on , including Visual Studio Team Edition for COBOL Users. I heard that there is VS 2005 Team System Extensibility Kit , from a person in charge of VSIP , who is working for MSKK. But there is no document about how to extend Profiler, Coverage, and so on.

Here are some examples: /exclude:Namespace1.Class1::Main - Exclude ...Show All

• Visual Basic Solution Explorer

  I am new to VB and have the following problom in the Solution Explorer:  I have several forms shown in the Explorer.  One of the form's icon has changed and is represented by a different icon then all the rest.  The icon looks like a Word icon with 'VB' overlayed on top as opposed to the other icons which look like a miniature form.  When I highlight this form, it is no longer accessible with the View Designer icon (in the upper right hand corner).  I can only access the View Code icon and can't open the form for editing.  I can only access the code behind it.  I have tried just about every toolbu ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions (Newbie) Listbox.SelectedIndex problem

  Hi EDITED post: changed question. This is the very last thing I need to do to complete my first project. I have found that to select an item from a Listbox, the user needs to use the up/down control and then click to highlight anthe item before a call to ListBox.SelectedIndex will return the correct item in the list. Even if a different item is showing in the Listbox, the return is always the last item that was 'selected', How do I programatically force the item showing in the Listbox to be 'selected'   The reason is because you are setting the value of Skill's SelectedIndex to 2 then even though you Dim diffic ...Show All
