• Visual Studio Tools for Office Hosting a web page in Action Pane (MS Word 2003)

  Hi, Does anyone know if it is possible to host a web page in an Action Pane of Word (through ActiveX control or otherwise), in such a way that events (e.g. button clicks, page navigations) could be captured and routed back to the application For example, a web page that contains several forms, a submit button and a cancel button is residing in the Action Pane. If a user fills out the form and presses Submit, this triggers an event inside the Action Pane and some changes occur. Likewise with Cancel. The idea is to merge the web app functionality with the MS Word, so that a user does not have to open a seperate window/run a diff ...Show All

• Visual Studio Package Load Failure with /NoVsip

  Hi all, To deploy our DSL we requested a PLK and followed the Deploying a DSL walkthrough. When starting the exp. environment with option /NoVsip in the debug settings all works fine (we also deliberately created a package with an erronous PLK/package combination and then the exp. environment with option NoVSIP didn't start, as expected). When installing the package and starting VS with devenv /novsip a Package Load Failure occurs. To make sure we didn't deploy an old version of the package (with an errounous PLK), we removed all assemblies containing the package and then rebuild the solution. What might we be doing wrong < ...Show All

• Windows Forms System.BadImageFormatException executing Custom Action in setup project

  We recently migrated from VS2003 to VS2005. We have an installer project that calls a custom action from our setup project. It used to work great in VS2003 but VS2005 is giving the following error when the MSI attempts to execute the custom action portion of the setup (occurs at the very end): Exception occurred while initializing the installation: System.BadImageFormatException: The format of the file "XXCustomAction.dll" is invalid. In the MSI, our custom action is listed under "Install" as "Primary output from XXCustomAction (Active)". The output shows "XXCustomAction.dll" as the only output. ...Show All

• Visual C++ About：『Multimedia Timer』 Problem

  I know a function ,SetTimer() ,can do the same job with Multimedia Timer. But SetTimer() is low prioioty and not accurate enough that I  want. So, i choose Multimedia Timer .

• Windows Forms Selecting a value in a datagrid using datagridbuttoncolumn

• SQL Server Rollback in a trigger??? (explicit/autocommit transactions)

  I’m using triggers for some more advanced integrity check. The problems is that the same trigger can be run from explicit transaction (this is when I start transaction from .NET) and as autocommit transaction ( very rare, only when we do some maintenance directly with SQL statements). Currently if I want to rollback transaction from trigger I only issue RAISERROR statements, then .NET application catches this error and generates rollback. But the problem is if trigger is raised from some SQL statements outside .NET application (normally some maintenance work direct from SQL manager ) in that case error is generated but there is no r ...Show All

• SQL Server SQL2005 Database Schema without Assocated Owner?

  I was quite happy to see that schema names and database users had finally been separated in SQL 2005 and used it to finally clean up a mish-mash database that hosts a number of tiny unrelated applications. I created a new schema for each little section, and the schemas are all owned by dbo. There is no associated user with the schema. Really it all works great... ...except... from an ADP project in Access! If an object is in the dbo schema, or in a schema with a matching user, then everything works fine. All of the objects that are in schemas without a matching user, have the name of some random user in the database list For example, the tab ...Show All

• Visual C++ Old "Wizard Bar" from VC6 on the toolbar?
