• Visual Studio Express Editions C# and application settings

  Hi all , I'm just starting to learn C# after learning a lot of Visual Basic. However, I have become a bit stuck! It's a really simple question but I really can't work it out. I added two settings to a project, X and Y, both integers. I set the scope to Application. How do I then access these settings I need to be able to read from and write to these variables, which is the problem I have at the moment. A site told me to use RocksnGems.Properties. Settings .Default.X //and RocksnGems.Properties. Settings .Default.Y to access the settings (RocksnGems is the default namespace for the project). I don't know if reading the variables in th ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Document.Application.Selection becomes null

  Hi All, I'm using Document.Application.Selection.Find.Execute to search for specific text and upon a hit i'm inserting an image there. This works fine if the document is not invisible. Now, I'm opening a document WordApplication.Documents.Open and pass a parameter which is the visibility parameter as false. After doing this when I try to find the text as in above para, the Selection property of Document.Application becomes null. I suppose, this is valid behaviour. If so, anyone suggest me an alternate to this TIA Pavan Hi Pavan, The best place to ask any Word Object Model or general Word spec ...Show All

• .NET Development ASMX interop between .NET 1.1 and .NET 2.0

  If I have a web service written using v1.1 are there known issues when trying to consume it (via wsdl.exe-generated proxies) in a .NET 2.0 (Beta 2) client Ofcourse this happens when you declare a web service function to return a .NET object, like a dataset. For dataset in particular, I've noticed that the xml output is pretty clear and shouldn't impose any problem not only when changing .net version, but even when used by other platform. ...Show All

  Rajeev please help, I think I have found a bug in .Net. If you look at my other recent post you will see the code I am using to bind a report to a datatable in ASP.Net via an ObjectDataSource , which works for the master report.

• Visual Studio Tooltip not showing up in ReportViewer

  I have a report that displays an image in a table column that allows the user to drilldown into a detail report. The image has a tooltip associated with it. When I view the report in Report Manager it displays the tooltip. When I display the report in a ReportViewer control (in remote mode pointing at the same report) the tooltip does not display. Is this expected behaviour Report Manager is using the ReportViewer control, so there should be no difference. Can you post a simple repro rdl ...Show All

• SQL Server Multiple Log Files

  Using an expression to set the log filename to include the date and time results in 3 log files being created. Ummm. Why I only ran the package once. Is SSIS not sharing my log file connection among the different components On first thought my workaround would involve using a script task to "set" the log file name to a variable and use an expression to set the log connection to the variable. But the problem with that is that logging starts BEFORE the script task is run... Hi, It would be great if you can give more details about your package.
