• .NET Development Remotely accessing system certificate stores

  I am developing a C application to use SSL/TLS.  Using the samples provided by MS, I have been generally successful.  I am using a stand-alone CA at this time.  I have been able to run my server and client with a SSL connection on the same machine as well as 2 separate machines.  However, to get this to work I have had to install the certificates on the machine on which the program is running.  The issue that continues to "dog" me is how to get "remote system store access" to work.  When I open the certificate store I am constructing \\<machine name>\My, but the opening of the certificate store only works ...Show All

• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums VB Script Crashes Access When Exporting to Excel

  I am trying to solve a minor problem for a small school running Access 2000 on a network. The program runs well with several forms and reports. The problem is that one of the reports is exported to Excel. This works fine except when the database is moved off the network, the export process either produces an error message or crashes Access. The database filename is AA92603.MDB. When it is copied to the C: drive on a computer off the network, the export process produces a message box stating: Run-Time Error ‘-2147467259(80004005) ‘H:\Applications\AA92603.MDB’ is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is sp ...Show All

• Windows Forms Problem with TreeView-Icons and EnableVisualStyles() (Beta2/Windows XP)

  Hi there, we recently found out that there still seems to be a bug with EnableVisualStyles() in Beta2. We want to show a Treeview with different icons and have VisualStyles enabled. However none of the icons are shown under WinXP whereas Win2000 shows them all. Calling Application.DoEvents() after EnableVisualStyles doesn't change this behaviour. We found out that adding a manifest to the executable like in http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp url=/library/en-us/dv_vstechart/html/vbtchusingwindowsxpvisualstyleswithcontrolsonwindowsforms.asp fixed the problem, but that's a little uncomfortable. We thought that this bug was fixed in B ...Show All

• SQL Server ISSUES. . .

  I'm a developer for a rich client application with a primary grid that should be refreshed when data is changed by other users. I loath to resort to some sort of polling. It would be really cool if there is a native way to raise an event on the client from a SQL Server trigger. RAISEERROR can send a message to the Connection's InfoMessage() event. But of course this will only send the message back to the user who made the change. Is there anyway in SQL Server to raise an error message on another process so that this ADO event can pick it up 1. Don't implement the sink in VBSUX ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Positioning elements generated by a data template on a Grid or Canvas

  I'm trying to use an XML data source and a data template to generate some TextBlock elements from this data and present them using an ItemsControl. The TextBlocks are generated correctly, but I can't figure out how to position them on a Grid or Canvas panel. It seems the attached properties (Grid.Column, Grid.Row, Canvas.Left, etc) that I define on the TextBlocks are somehow ignored. This is the XAML code I'm using: <StackPanel xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/avalon/2005" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/xaml/2005"> <StackPanel.Resources>     <XmlDataProvider x:Key="dataSource" XPath="/T ...Show All

• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums Losing primary display on Windows 2003 SE w/ single Radeon display

  I recently setup and configured a new IBM x346 (dual 3.6 GHz, 16 GB RAM, 2 TB DASD) which contains a single analog video output port (builtin, not a video card). However, the display control panel indicates that it believes the video card has two display outputs, both apparently connected through the same port. I tried to utilize the "second" display by extending my desktop, but this caused my monitor to display the second screen and no longer display the primary screen (remember, one port). When I utilized guesswork to "grab" the display control panel from the now unviewable, but accessible, screen 1 (off to the left sid ...Show All

• Visual C# How can I change the computer resolution when my program starts?

  I'm having a problem when I install my apps to a computer with less resolution, my customized forms does not display all the buttons especially the ones at the bottom. I want to set the resolution at run-time, how do I do that Please help. Whilst I'm sure there's ways of doing this, my simple answer would be: don't. Not under any circumstances. You have no idea why people have the resolution they do. They may have eyesight problems, requiring a lower resolution, they may have restrictions from their graphics card, or even other programs. Rather make use of the Anchor and Dock properties to have your controls automatically resize at ...Show All
