• Windows Forms Dynamically resize a control after user controls are added.

  Hi, I'm developing a business rule management application that, basically, let the users create their own rules and the evaluation for that rule. I have 3 types of evaluation controls: a comparing control, a simple control and a composite control. The idea is that the user can create any type of evaluation, as he adds those controls. So, while he adds, the parent evaluation controls (user control) and the main user control should be resized. The user adds the evaluation controls by clicking at the context menu of each control. My implementation is not working quite fine and I wonder if anyone have any ideas or maybe better imp ...Show All

  We are attempting to upgrade from 1.1 to 2.0. We are running SQL Server 2003, and it has SessionState 1.1 installed successfully.

• Visual Studio Team System Finding each call to a method

  I'm writing a rule that needs to find each call that is made to a method and inspects the parameters that are provided in that method call. I seem to have been able to obtain a list of the callers via CallGraph.CallersFor(Method), but am having trouble getting the expressions / literals that are provided for the parameters, as well as knowing which parameter they relate to. I'm sure there's something obvious that I'm missing. Should I be locating instructions with OpCodes such as call and callvirt instead, and then working my way back up the stack to find the parameters I'd prefer not to have to do this if possible, since it seems that it wo ...Show All

• .NET Development My programs won't start up on Win98 or Win2000

  I've been struggling hard with this for about a month.  I have a program written in C# .Net 1.1, that has about 170,000 lines of code and is in daily use by thousands of users.  Any version that I released after about 9/1/05 simply fails to start up at all on Win98 or Win2000.   "An unhandled exception has occurred", followed by thread id, but absolutely none of the usual details.  Keep in mind that it continues to work flawlessly on WinXP, and it always worked flawlessley on Win98/2k until one month ago.  The problem does not affect previously compiled versions, only those which I compiled after that ...Show All
