One of the tables (TEXT001) contains the text of the documents with each paragraph of each document assigned to its own row with a paragraph number in a SectionNo column.

• .NET Development tabControl bugs in VB.Net 2003

  I have been working with tabControls quite a bit lately and have noticed a couple of annoying bugs.  One of these bugs are that I set the order of my tab pages collection and when I compile my project the tab pages end up in a different order all by themselves.  Another problem is that when I try to delete objects that are on tab pages I am unable to do so by right clicking and clicking on delete; the delete, copy, and cut options are greyed out.  Selecting the object and pressing delete doesn't work most of the time either.  The only thing that does work sometimes is to delete the control from the "Windows form designer ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions How do you change Data Type

  Hi Folks, I made a DataBase application with 4 forms. Three have DataGridViews. The program connects to an Access DataBase. On one of the Tables of the Access DataBase, when I first set it up, I set the DataType to Integer. This was a mistake. It should have been set to Double. I get Format Exceptions when entering Doubles into a DataGridView box. I changed the DataType to Double in the Access DataBase but it's like stuck in the application DataSet. Short of deleting all the TableAdapters, BindingSources, etc. How can I set a Column in the DataGridView to accept a Double instead of an Integer Thanks much. ...Show All

  The following code works perfectly when run by itself: DECLARE @DateTransaction smalldatetime DECLARE @TradeDate smalldatetime SET @DateTransaction = (SELECT Max(DateTransaction) FROM tblImport) SET @TradeDate = (SELECT Max(DateTrade) FROM tblSystem) PRINT 'The Transaction Date is ' + CAST(@DateTransaction as varchar) + '.

• Visual Basic DirectX confusion?

  Hi There, I have been trying to integrate some Direct X functionality into my VB.NET application and am finding it incredibly difficult to find code samples with VB.NET code instead of C# examples which are everywhere! When I have found a few VB.NET code samples that I can understand, they won't run on my machine because I am running a newer version of Direct X (DirectX 9c) and this version is apparently not backwards compatible with the previous releases of DirectX. This is very frustrating and I would like to know if anyone knows of a good source of comprehensive VB.NET code samples for use with the latest version of DirectX Thanks in adv ...Show All
