• Visual C++ VS2005 C++ project: linkage errors under MultiThreaded-DLL runtime lib', but compiles fine under Multithreaded-DEBUG dll ?!?

  Hi, I am in the process of moving our development to VS2005 from VS2003. One of our C++ projects now runs properly in debug mode, and in release mode when using the multithreaded-debug-dll runtime libs, but does is fails during linkage when in release more and using the multithreaded-(release)-dll [which it is supposed to]. - The project combines managed and unmanaged code. - The error repeats itself both in the original managed C++ syntax, and now in the new C++/CLI syntax. - Other C++ projects I have moved to VS2005 do not have this issue. The linkage error is below in italic. Any ideas ! Thanks, 5spot MSVCMRT.lib(mstartup.obj) : error ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office can I have a macro with VSTO?

  Is it possible in VSTO to have a macro with a keypress event and then have that call a function to execute code   For example, can I have a macro behind the 'w' key, and everytime it is pushed I execute code   I've been searching around online for a while but can't find anything.  I've looked at the VSTO book too and nothing is in there about it.  I found this link: http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.office.developer.vba/browse_thread/thread/277183545f501d9f/d3fe55d7a78e1f62 lnk=st&q=creating+a+macro+in+vba+code+vsto&rnum=3&hl=en#d3fe55d7a78e1f62  but is there a way to do it without VBA &n ...Show All

• .NET Development wordml xsl trsansform

  I am using wordml xsl stylesheet to transform some xml. The wordml has lists that have a bullet (the normal character) as the character to use. This character is an illegal character for XSL transformation. How can I get around this issue. The output is a wordml document. By opening the new xml document it is opened in word. Thanks for any help. A little more about this issue.....Below is the WordML code. The "wx:val" attribute is a bullet character....this bullet will not parse with xsl and be viewable with word ml since it transforms to an invalid xml character. Is there a wa ...Show All

• SQL Server RDL vs RDLC

  My application is a large windows form app that connects to databases via webservice. The client has no ability to get to the SQL Server. Do I even have an option of using Reporting Services, or do I have to use client deployed reports in RDLC files and pass it a dataset If so, what are the advantages of using SSRS I don't have a problem with this method, since it is pretty much identical to what we do with Crystal Reports, but I want to make sure I understand the alternatives. Thanks The FAQ section about the ReportViewer controls may be helpful (e.g. #8): http://www.gotreportviewer.com/ -- Rober ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions libc.lib

  Does anyone know what replaced libc.lib An SDK i purchased requires libc.lib but I would like to use VC++ 2005 Express edition to program with, and I must link to libc.lib. What lib / libs have replaced libc You can not replace LIBC! There is no longer a single theraded CRT support in VC 2005.  You have to recompile the sources and use the multithreading CRT! In this case the correct library LIBCMT will be used. ...Show All

• SQL Server Report Manager and screen readers

  Hi, One of our developers uses JAWS 5.1. He's able to navigate to a report using Report Manager, but once he generates it, he can only read the toolbar (where the Export options are, etc). He can't move the virtual cursor into the main report area; JAWS just goes silent. Any ideas Does Report Manager not support it or can we change something in our setup We're using Reporting Services SP2 with SQL Server 2000. That's not good.  I'm following up internally on this right now.   It may take a little time to get a response out to you because of the Christmas season and people's availability.&n ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System CA1823 False Positive

  It's easy to see why this false positive occurs, but it's still annoying! Consider the following code (from a plain-vanilla console app): This false positive turns up a lot. It's interesting how many const strings out that are used exclusively as a substring within another pattern. 8) We will either clear up this noise or disable the check in the next (post 1.35) update. Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for the report. ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Workflow Foundation in Framework 1.1

  Hi, I'm a newbe 2 WFM so just enjoy my ignorance. We are still using Studio 2003 for our Web Applications - is there any way to use WMF with Framework 1.1 From all info I'm getting now, it seems like WMF is something for framework 2.2, no examples for vs2003. Thanks in advance. GotIt PS Have I posed this question in wrong forum Please correct me. Sorry dude, it’s not possible I think. You'll need Framework 2.0 and WinFX. Windows Workflow Extensions for Visual Studio are for Visual Studio 2005 (RTM) only. Even Express Editions can't use them. HTH. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Program flow - order of execution.

  As a real novice I am writing a small application to measure a persons reaction time by presenting a prompt on screen and then measuring how long before a key is pressed. My problem is understanding the program flow. When run the form is presented and then when the Start button is pressed there is a short, random delay and the prompt presented. The clock stops when any key is pressed (sub EndTimer) and the time presented - all as expected - but then the prompt is presented again and again and again..... The app works as intended except for the cycling. I do not understand why it is looping. The relavant code follows. I thought it would ru ...Show All
