• Visual Studio Express Editions Making "MaskedTextBox" values return in order...

  I written some code (with some help..alright, alot of help) to store the values to a .txt file(s) so that when I re-open the form, the values will return (Hopfully to where they came from), but unfortunately they don't. What happens is, they start back filling from the bottom of the form (Highest "MaskedTextBox" number to the lowest) P.S. I'm already using this solution for "TextBoxes" Using FileOpen(1, "FSO.txt" , OpenMode.Input) and it works fine (Confused) I'm saving the values for "TextBoxes" to one file( FSO.txt) and the values for the "MaskedTextBoxes" to another file( FSO2.txt ...Show All

• .NET Development Web Service works locally, not remotely

  All is ASP.NET 2.0, C# I have a web service that works exactly as expected when on the host machine, invoked in a web browser. When I try to consume it from my client application, it fails, and fails oddly. When the service gets called from the application, I get a SQL Exception that for the parameterized query I don't provide a value for the parameter '@SITE' . In the code I clearly set this parameter. When I consume the service from my client I always provide a default value, so I know that a value is provided. When I run it from a web browser I type in the two parameters & they clearly are accepted and processed correctly. An ...Show All

• Visual C++ WinNT.h generating compiling errors

  Hi, I've been trying to compile a small piece of code but I always get an error which seems to come from WinNT.h (line 222). The error is "error C2146: syntax error : missing ';' before identifier 'PVOID64'" and it generates other errors like " error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed. Note: C++ does not support default-int". The line says: typedef void * POINTER_64 PVOID64; I'm currently using Visual Studio 2005 and Windows Server 2003 SP1 Platform SDK. The paths were registered with the tool that comes with the SDK. How can I solve this problem Thanks for your help. ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Debugging unit tests running on ASP.NET Development Server

  Hi, we're having issues while attempting to debug our unit tests for ASP.NET apps, i.e., there is no support for automatic debugging in VS2005. The current msdn documentation on the subject has been deemed incorrect, with forthcoming amendments posted here: http://blogs.msdn.com/vstsue/articles/556002.aspx#DebuggingOnIIS The procedure for IIS works, but after following the steps for Cassini to the letter, i still cannot get the debugger to attach. the Break() is ignored in the unit test, and the Debug dialog never appears. However, another post suggested using this as a workaround: System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(10 * 1000) - givin ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Select Approver - activity

  In Oracle Worlflow we have an activity called SelectApprover, is there an equivalent in Windows Workflow or please tell me a logic to apply a similar activity.Excuse me for my ignorance and treat this question as one from a newbie! thanks in advance. Ramprasad, WF doesn't provide a "SelectApprover" shape out-of-the-box.  You could want your approver to sign-off via email, a website, some winform client - so WF provides all the infrastructure needed to create a select-approver like activity that fits your needs. A common way this is often modeled is by using an InvokeMethod & EventSink ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Problems with Mpeg4s Decoder DMO

  I have a compressing video capture card that provides an MP4s stream from an analog camera. The capture card SDK contains a DirectShow filter and I can easily construct a graph in DirectX SDK's GraphEdit tool. The graph is simply card->Mpeg4s Decoder DMO->Video Renderer and it all works nicely. This filter is used to capture streams from the card. The actual usage for the stream is such that it is first captured and stored as a raw MP4S stream (subtype WMMEDIASUBTYPE_MP4S). The stored video is then used in different applications that decompress it to a bitmap. And that's where the problem is: I can't initialize the deco ...Show All

• .NET Development How to do a programmatic update of table

  Assume a table called Test with three columns and n rows: ID integer identity primary key UpperLimit integer V1 integer Test is part of a SQL Server 2000 database on a server.   I want to read and update the table using the following algorithm   for i = 0 to n-2     test(i).V1 = (test(i).UpperLimit + test(i+1).UpperLimit) / 2 next test(n-1).V1 = (test(0).UpperLimit + test(n-1).UpperLimit) / 2   How would I do this in a .NET 2 web site or VB application.  It would be OK, but not necessary to use a datagrid to display the results.  The main thing is just to read the table, modify each row ...Show All

• Windows Forms Sort DateTime-String in a DataGrid

  I have a DataGrid, the source for my grid is a DataTable in a DataSet. One column is a DateTime type and for a better look I convert my DateTime rows to string. But now the sorting is false, when I click on the header for the Date-Column  (because of the alpha numeric sorting for strings). The sorting is like this: 10.01.2005 15.02.2005 19.01.2005 and I want it like this: 10.01.2005 19.01.2005 15.02.2005 As you see, my DateTime culture is de/DE. Has anybody an idea Why are you change the data type (DateTime -> String) when what you really want is to change the display format ...Show All
