• SQL Server Reporting Servers - Export to Multiple tabs in Excel

  I need to create a Reporting Services report that contains multiple result sets.  I want each result set to export to a different tab in Excel.  I want to be able to name the tab.  I would also like the headings in Excel to show up in the Header section of Excel, rather than in the body of the spreadsheet.  Is there a way to accomplish this task. Put multiple tables in your report and then put page breaks before them. Each manual page break becomes a new tab. For headers, you need to use a Excel DeviceInfo setting, SimplePageHeaders (see http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms155069(en-US,SQL.90).aspx ). If yo ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Using Data from a Checked Listbox

  Howdy, I'm trying to use a checked listbox to choose some numbers to add and return the total value to a label. Here's where I'm at so far (i'll throw in as much code as I can). I want to step thru the checked listbox list and if a box is checked add it's value to the total and then return the total of the checked boxes to a label. I can do it with a bunch of If statements, but I've got 14 checked listbox items and would rather use more automation and less code, i.e. For/Next or Do/Until all the items have been checked for check marks: Dim i, intSumOfNumbers, intBox1, intBox2, intBox3, intBox4 as Integer intBox1 = 4 intBox2 = 3 ...Show All

• Windows Forms Multi-threading problem with Windows Forms (possibly SerialPort too)

  I've been having a problem when updating a windows form from a different thread. Data is received on using a SerialPort class which fires the DataReceived event (on a different thread). This thread then calls a method on a form which updates a text box. The code used in the method is just like the sample from the MSDN below, which reroutes the call so that the textbox update is done from the same thread. private void SetText(string text) { // InvokeRequired required compares the thread ID of the // calling thread to the thread ID of the creating thread. // If these threads are different, it returns true. if (this.textBox1.In ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) GridLengthAnimation missing

  There is no such thing as a GridLengthAnimation which makes it impossible to animate the Grid panel. And since Value of GridLength isn't a dependencyproperty it can't be animated either. Would be nice to have this in a later CTP so that "everything" can be animated. Thanks for a great API! There's this work around that might help you depending on your design. However, you can always write your own implementation by simply writing your own AnimationTimeline implementation that returns GridLengths. For an example of how this would be done, check out Ian Griffiths post where he writes a samp ...Show All

• .NET Development XsltCompiledTransform inheriting or implementing

  In a project i am making i needed something similar to Xslt, but quite different too. I managed to create it, it basically works the same as Xslt but with some differences. The language is called Sslt, and the class that does transformations SsltCompiledTransform (~ XsltCompiledTransform). I now have the following problem. The application uses both Xslt and Sslt transform classes. I also have a class that monitors a folder checking it for new files to transform. I would like for this class to have an instance of either XsltCompiledTransform or SsltCompiledTransform. Using an interface seemed like a neat solution... The class is called Monito ...Show All

• .NET Development how to modify HTTP Post behavior when calling a webservice

  hi, i'm making a .net client for a JAX-RPC based webservice. unfortunatelly, the web service cannot be modified. i have a problem that i cannot solve: when calling a method of the webservice, an HTTP POST is sent to the server, but it needs a response from the server to continue to post the xml-data (the soap message). (i've sniffed the port the software uses, so i can tell a more precise description: in the HTTP message that is being sent out there's a field: "Expect: 100-continue" and "Connection: Keep-Alive", then, the server sends response: "HTTP/1.1 100 Continue", and then, the soap-message is sent to ...Show All

• .NET Development Run a method in another thread

  Hi, I'm currently working on a network library that offers an XMPP stream to a server, written in C# (.NET 2.0). After the stream has been initialised, the client can send elements to the server and the server can send elements to the client independently. Now I thought I run a separate thread listening on the stream and put all incoming elements in a queue, member of the XMPP.Stream class, a client could then read from the queue when needed. Additionally I have added events in the stream that are fired when an element comes in and when the stream is remotely closed. Now when I call the event function, it will be run inside the stream reader ...Show All
