• Windows Forms Datagrid / databind / crash

  I have now spent the whole day on this problem and still I have no solution - going more than a small bit crazy now.  I need to know if there is a solution and if yes what the hell is it. I have a custom collection (inherits CollectionBase and implements IBindingList).  In some UI I bind this collection to a normal DataGrid control.  From another location (through realtime notifications to the collection NOT the UI) I update the c ...Show All

• Visual Studio can i use inputs and outputs

  I know the inputs, but I do not know the outputs until I'm in the logic of my custom Task.

Their values may be computed by combining existing properties and/or items, or by previou ...Show All

No progress bar, no notification of any reboots and it does not even say when its done. I was hoping that someone knows a different method which atleast tells the user that the setup has completed. Or perhaps something else that can tell the user that setup has compl ...Show All

I have a C++/CLI solution I created in VS2005 Express consisting of a windows forms project (the main programm) and a few libraries - now I'd like to create a single executable instead of an executable and a bunch of dll files. As I can't create static C++/CLI libraries (or can I ) ...Show All
