• Visual Studio Team System InfoPath crashing when editing specific Process Guidance Content Items (Build97)

  Hi, Infopath is a lot more stable when editing ProcessGuidance.xml from Build 97, but I am still having the occasional problem. However, it seems to be related to specific Content Items. For example, whenever I select the "Develop Threat Model" activity, Infopath crashes. Is there a workaround other than editing the XML directly Regards Allen Jones Hi David, Trying to make a simple change to the ProcessGuidance.xml using MS InfoPath application to see how this works. I made changes to files to enable edit mode according to the "MSF Process Guidance Customation Guide". I then open ProcessGuidance.xml file ...Show All

• Windows Forms .gif Animation Play w/out Looping in Visual Basic .NET 2005 Beta 2 Express

  Hi, can anyone tell me how to make a .gif animation play without looping When I load one into a picturebox, even when the file is not designed to loop, it loops anyways. How can I stop this Thanks, The Digital Pioneer To prevent the GIF from playing at all you can set the PictureBox.Enabled property to false. However to play the GIF once without looping you will probably have to create your own control. To do this you could use the Image.GetFrameCount inconjunction with the Image.SelectActiveFrame method to only loop the GIF image once. ...Show All

• SQL Server Serializing / Deserializing from within Script component ?

  I have a script component used as transformation. I have written a small helper class that is used by ScriptMain class. The helper class has methods to serialize an object to file and to deserialize the file. Deserialize is called from overriding pre-execute and serialize is called from overriding post-execute. When I ran for the first time, there was nothing to deserialize (I checked for File.Exists) but serialization happened fine. When I ran the second time (this time there was a file to be deserialized), I get this error from pre-execute (Error captured usign messagebox.show): Unable to find assembly 'VBAssembly, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture ...Show All
