• Visual Studio Team System Problem creating a TFS Project

• Visual Basic list view right to left problem (VB.NET)

  i have problem with right to left i set the right to left property of list view yes but it don't work at all i want the columns start from right not left  help me plz Thanks for the question.  For the ListView control you need to set both the RightToLeft to "Yes" and RightToLeftLayout to "True". That will make the items order right to left. Also note that the RightToLeft property is ambient (pulls the value from the parent control like BackgroundColor) so you can set the RightToLeft on the parent control (such as the Form) and then set RightToLeftLayout to "True" to get the same effect.   Chris Mayo ...Show All

  Hi, There exists the possibility of establishing replies Merge between a SQL Server 2005 Express Edition and a Pocket PC I have observed Express Edition only allows replies as subscriber Gracias.

• Visual Studio Express Editions ReportViewer Problems

  Hi All. I have installed the ReportViewer component and loaded it into my Visual C# Express tool palette. I then added the component to a WinForm, and when the SmartTag popped up, clicked "Design a new report" but nothing happens. I literally mean nothing. The link looks like it is clicked (changes color) but it does nothing. Could someone tell me how to design a local report and attach it to the ReportViewer control And if I need anything extra, please define what and if possible, where I can get it. TIA Hi Hagen.

• Visual Studio Express Editions Getpixel API

  visual basic code: Where did you find this code What is it supposed to do Cut and paste of code you don't understand is always a bad idea. hdc would be a device context, the thing that Windows must generate in order to draw something. GetPixel is returning the color of a pixel in a DC, build from a window, which would be a single number which, when converted to hex, is an RGB triple. Can someone please explain to me how to use this code so that I can grab the pixel color from a location on the screen Well, forget the session stuff, and instead just pass IntPtr.Zero ( from memory, it's NULL that you want ) to GetDC to get the DC of ...Show All

• Visual C++ Changed the COM signatures....using ildasm.....

  Hi, I have a .exe COM which I used in .NET but some signatures got changed....so I opened it with ildasm and changed the signatures so that it should return something from the function....This is the error I'm getting now.... The runtime has encountered a fatal error. The address of the error was at 0x79e8aff6, on thread 0xb4. The error code is 0xc0000005. This error may be a bug in the CLR or in the unsafe or non-verifiable portions of user code. Common sources of this bug include user marshaling errors for COM-interop or PInvoke, which may corrupt the stack. Any Ideas.... Thanks, Harsimrat ...Show All

• SQL Server Express cannot convert different data types automaticly????

  I have a SQL Server 2000 database which works like a charm in my asp app. Joining tables by id columns which are of different data types (eg. int in one table and varchar in the other) is no problem with the SQL Server engine, but Native Client refuses to do so and hands me back an error. Even if columns have a slightly different collation (like Slovenian_CI_AS and SQL_Server_1250_CI_AS) SQL Express native client returns an ERROR !!! Is it possible that Native client cannot resolve this on its own Must I change the colattion and datatype on all my tables Please help!!!! Peca, developer from Serbia u ...Show All

• Visual C# Installing Project

  I developed a database in SQL Server 2000 , the front end (GUI) is designed in C# , it is working fine on my own computer but if I try to migrate it to other computer where SQL Server2000 is not installed its not working there, similarly if I install SQL Server 2000 on that computer it stillrequires to attach the database file, so is there any method or procedure so that I don't have to install SQL Server 2000 altogether or I have not to attach the data file by my own means that the data file must be picked up the computer automatically. A quick response will highly be appreciated. Thanking in anticipation. FROM IFTI ...Show All
