• Visual Basic System.IO.Directory.GetFiles

  Hello,   I'm writing code for a directory read (see below) and as of now I want to make sure it can read from a UNC path (i.e. \\SERVER ) opposed to the local machie (i.e. C:\).  I've used the code below which works with "C:\" for a location of the files, however when I change the path to a UNC path I get an error saying that the UNC path should be a shared folder.  Why is there a difference   I have to use a UNC Path because the files being processed won't be on the local machine.  Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks, Matt 'This code works with the"C:\", but not " \\SERVERNAME\CDRIVE\ " ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System "Compound Words Should Be Cased Correctly" exceptions.

  On one specific machine (Windows 2003 Server) my FxCop test unexpectedly/surprisingly generates thousands of "Compound Words Should Be Cased Correctly" messages. All those exceptions are actually wrong. Example:  The compound word 'InvalidParameter' in class 'InvalidParameterException' exists as a discrete term. If your usage is intended to be single word, case it as 'Invalidparameter'. "InvalidParameter" does not exist as a discrete term, so this message (and 4 thousand others) is not correct. I am using FxCop 1.32. I have 10 other machines (some of them Win2003 Server) running the same project against the same code without any prob ...Show All

• Visual C++ running executable from different locations

  Hi, The executable file of my c++ project (Version .net 2003) runs fine and does not give any errors. However, the results (output files generated by the project) vary, depending on the location on the computer where the executable is stored and on whether or not other files are included in the directory where the executable is stored. Running the executable from another pc also leads to different results. I do not make use of any time-based random number initialisation and as far as I can see, no memory overwriting occurs. Does anybody know what's going on here Please, let me know. Thank you, Annemarie ...Show All

• Visual Studio Name of EventHandler called when Compartment item is selected?

  Hi all, I've been playing with the tool for a while. I'm trying to override the event handler which is called when an item in a compartment is clicked. I've searched and searched to no avail. I've digged around classes like ContainerShape, CompartmentItem...etc. Here is what I'm trying to achieve. The item in the compartment of a container has some property that points to some other compartment item (possibly in other shape). When the item is selected on the compartment (i.e. highlighted), I want to read the value in the property in order to make some changes to the compartment item which the selected item is pointing at. ...Show All
