• Visual Studio vs 2005 beta 2 setup fails

  When I try to setup vs 2005 beta 2, it says that it failed to setup visual studio itself after it gets to the end screen. The installation seems normal untill then because the vs 2005 even gets a checkmark next to it when on the install screen. The progress bar never moves when it is on vs 2005 though. I will post the error log when I can find it. Hello, I am getting the same kind of error  when installing Visual Studio 2005 Beta2. The comments before the "return value 3" are: MSI (s) (20:D8) [11:12:03:571]: Assembly Error:Function not defined in specified DLL. MSI (s) (20:D8) [11:12:03:571]: Note: 1: ...Show All

• Windows Forms "Details" style data binding question?

  I am using VS.NET 2005 Standard edition; My goal is to bind a dataset with one datatable to a form in a way that gives you a table of "overview" with selected columns.  From there the user can select a row and the entire record is display in a data-entry grid below the entier datagridview control. It's a sort of split screen - there are many to many fields to cause the user to easily edit them in the datagridview. So far i have no problem getting the data, binding the datagridview control, or selected the row.  The question is what is the best method for bidnign the individual row items to the various controls. I was ...Show All

• Visual C++ System.InvalidOperationException in System.Windows.Forms.dll

  Hi!!! I posted some days ago with a problem: I had this: I had a large C++ unmanaged application which I compiled and ran perfectly using Visual Studio 2003. Now, I want to compile and run it using Visual Studio 2005. When I compiled it in release mode everything worked fine, but I got about a thousand comiler errors when trying to compile it in debug mode. All of these compiler errors appear in files that belong to Visual Studio 2005 such as stdlib.h, cstdlib.h,etc. Finally, I managed to compile my application in debug mode :D But now when I try to run my application I get this message: System.InvalidOperationException occurr ...Show All

• Visual C# Types and namespaces can't be found

  Ok, This is an elaboration of a previous post I've made about VS2005 not being able to locate namespaces and classes. I have one file containing a page, in the namespace Timesheet.Pages , and a control in another file in the namespace Timesheet.Controls . When I add a " using " reference to the Timesheet.Pages in the file containing my control, I get the error " The type or namespace name 'Pages' does not exist in the namespace 'Timesheet' (are you missing an assembly reference ) ". All the files are in the same solution and the same assembly, although the control .ascx files are in a sub-folder. I initially thought that ...Show All

• Visual Studio Debugging multi-threaded operations problem

  You'll love this one... I've ran into a rather odd problem, both in the application I'm in the process of developing and in a test project I threw together just to replicate the issue. When debugging code that is run on a thread other than the main execution thread the non-main thread will exit for no apparent reason. Here's the kicker... It only happens if you have the autos variable window selected i.e. the problem will not show if you're viewing the watch list. Here's how to replicate: Visual Studio 2005 Standard 8.0.50727.42 1 Create a new Windows Application for C#. 2 Create 1 button. 3 Use the following for your class code. public part ...Show All
