• Software Development for Windows Vista Problems with SendInput. It's not working?

• Visual Studio Express Editions Menu Overflow woes

  hi all, a) I have a menu that is built at runtime and items added dynamically. When the menu overflows the overflow menu itself does not have the same back color etc as my main menu. How can i change this b) (Related) as a workaround I changed the fore color of the menu items from white (on the main menu) to black (on the overflow) using the placement property. This works fine for menu items that are created and immediately drop onto the overflow menu, but when the last item of the main menu shifts to the overflow because of the overflow button appearing, it ratains it white fore color. even if i itterate through all menu items as each one ...Show All

• Visual C# Problem reading numbers from Excel files using OLEDB

  Hi, I'm using a OLEDB connection to read from Excel files. I use a DataAdaptor to read all the contents of the first sheet then fill a untyped DataSet with it. Later I bind that DataSet to a DataGridView for display. Everything seems to work but actually, randomly, something like four times out of five, I only get the first 6 columns of the sheet. Also, when things go wrong like this, numbers like "0.95" are shown like "0.950000001" are something like that. Either it shows fine, either I get the croped columns and the odd numbers. Thanks for any help, Bento ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System New Projects do not get retrieved on get latest version

  We're experiencing some difficulties here. I've added 3 new projects to our Solution and checked them in. However, no one in my team gets them when they get latest version from Source Control, or from the Solution Explorer. They have to manually go and "Add Project from Source Control" from the File menu. What could cause this I've checked out the solution file from Source Control, built the solution (for some reason when we build the entire solution it asks to check out the Solution File) and then checked it back in, but no one gets it. At the same time, if we branch this solution to a new branch, it will not carry ove ...Show All

• .NET Development Windows Services don't respond

  Our application has 2 windows services. One, let's call it "Guard", is monitoring second one, let's call it "TaskManager". Main role of "Guard" is at intervals of couple hours to reboot "TaskManager".For most our customers it works without problems, but for several it doesn't. Even there is no posibility to do it from Sevices in Control Panel. We need use some third-party application to kill it and execute it again. So, I have a few questiuons: 1. What the reasons can be which make the Windows Services not to respond 2. How can I monitor what exactly happens on that computer 3. Can "Gu ...Show All
