• Visual Studio Express Editions accessing clipboard through the console

  I would like to access data which, most likely resides on the users clipboard. After a bit of websearching, I have learnt that the clipboard class is available in the System.Windows.Forms namespace. I am currently writing a console application, and cannot seem to access that namespace. How can I access the clipbard then Thank you. You just need to add a reference to the System.Windows.Forms.dll, which is not added by default in Console applications, which typically don't use the functionality from this DLL.  You can add this reference by clicking on the node for your project in the Solution Explorer a ...Show All

• SQL Server Cannot connect to "Reporting Services" using Microsoft Sql Server Management Studio.

• SQL Server Transfer SQL Server Objects Errors

  Hi. I'm totally new to SSIS (SP1), and I'm having a raft of troubles transferring DB's using the 'Transfer SQL Server Objects Task', which seems to be the closest replacement for the old DTS Transfer Objects tool. I'm trying to transfer a DB from an SQL Server 2000, where I only have SQL Server authentication (it's a shared hosting environment) to my local SQL Server 2005 server, where I'm logged in using Windows Authentication (although I have the same issues if I use SQL Authentication locally). Here's the list of errors I'm getting. If I don't select 'copy all tables', I receive a "table does not exist at source" error. If I d ...Show All

• Visual FoxPro File acces

  Situation: A program written in FoxPro tries to find a file on a remote computer. It does find it. Then a new file as added to that folder on the server. The client is trying to find the new file, but an error "File access is denied" is generated. The same file is being read from the server without problem. Any ideas "Does't find it". In your original message error was "Access is denied". I'm confused. Newly created tables are exclusively used by the creator until closed. Might that be your problem ie: Session A (or user A): create table xx (f1 i) && assume this is created on \\computerX\FolderY Ses ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions odd textbox behaviour - bug?

  I have a controls on a form bound to a binding source.  The first control (textbox) is my auto-number field and is read only.  I also have a function that clears all the controls (textboxes, combo's, and date pickers) on the form when a user deletes a record or clicks the "add new" button.  After this occurs, the focus is put (not by me) on the auto-number field textbox.  From that point on I am not able to get out of the textbox unless I stop the debugger and restart the program.  Its like it is stuck in the textbox.  I have tried taking the tabstop away and as long as I don't click in the textbox I am ok. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Pulling Release via Labels through Remote Access

  We have worked through all the common issues to get the remote access functioning for VS2005.  Currently my developers pull their release down through VSS2005 via a label.  Now that we have remote access available can they pull a project via a label name through VS2005 remote access   We have successfully checked out and in individual solutions, but do not see the labels.  I assume when we did this we were just getting the tip.  This method is not acceptable for our offsite development (the tip is not always what we need). EW: No, that is definitely not the case.  SourceOffsite has Get By Label functional ...Show All

• SQL Server Using user variables in derived column transformation

  My derived column transformation with a user variable expression displays the user variable's default and not its assignned value. Background: I built a script component that seems to effectively assign a new value to a user variable. I use local variables within the component, make the assignment in the PostExecute subroutine, and check by writing the user variable to a messagebox there. In the derived column transformation I create a new column and insert the user variable in its expression field, add a data viewer, and send it to a data destination. The data viewer shows the user variable default and not the assignned value. I re ...Show All

• Windows Forms Customizing TableLayoutPanelDesigner

  Hello, I'm developing a custom control that is to be used in a custom forms designer that I created. The control should have exactly two cells behaving like cells in a TableLayoutPanel, so I thought I'd build my control as an extension to TableLayoutPanel. Now I need to customize its designer, since I do not need all the design-time options that TableLayoutPanelDesigner offers. Problem is: TableLayoutPanelDesigner is an internal class, and can therefore not be inherited! Now I was wondering what my options are... I was thinking about developing a custom designer from scratch (extending from ParentControlDesigner). How to achieve ...Show All
