Visual Basic ADO.net DataAccess time SLOW
Unless I am doing something very wrong, it seems that the ADO.net dataaccess time,IE retrieving a record is extremly slow compared to Classic ADO. Now it takes between 1 and 2 seconds to retrieve the data from the Remote database (Access). Because of needing update data when I select a serial number, I presume and currently use direct access to the remote database. I load a combobox with all my serial Numbers, Currently 15,000 . Then when I click on a SN, the program does a query on the ADO.net dataadapter, retrieves the current record. this take almost 2 seconds. Classic was almost instantly. Am I doing something wrong. Here a part of ...Show All

Software Development for Windows Vista WF failed to work, if i add a service

Smart Device Development Activesync 4.1 will sync all options but hangs on calendar sync.
I'm sync-ing my device to the desk top. Desk top is connected to an Outlook server. Everything syncs except the calendar, which is what I really need. It hangs after a couple of minutes. I'm running Outlook 2003 (11.8002 6568 SP2). Initially it says "syncing xx of 337 items." Then it just dies with no inidication of the problem on either the device or the desktop. Tried uninstalling and re-installing 4.0, 4.1 and running the "fix errors" installation. Also read all the threads on the rapi.dll for other problems. Love the device, but really need my calendar. Worked for about two weeks after the initial installation. ...Show All
SQL Server Should this be an error rather than a warning?
If you have a package that uses an environment variable for an indirect configuration and the environment variable is not present when the package runs you get the following warning: The configuration environment variable was not found. The environment variable was: "Seer.ConnectionManager.CUECommonReference". This occurs when a package specifies an environment variable for a configuration setting but it cannot be found. Check the configurations collection in the package and verify that the specified environment variable is available and valid. IMO, if the package is expecting to find something and cannot find it then ...Show All

Windows Forms Keeping Track of Time?
Can anyone help me out with this I am in the process of jumping from VB6 to VB.Net 2005 B2. I can't seem to be able to get this coded properly. I want to have a simple label that will increment time from the moment I press a "Start" button until the moment I press a "Stop" button. The time would be in the following format hh:mm:ss I'm not completely sure of what your intent is here. The totalPauseSpan variable keeps track of the total paused time span - i.e. the part of the measured time that should not be included. However, if you want to start the timer at a certain value when clicking "Start", you could ...Show All

Smart Device Development VS2005 Embedded Compact Framework 2 Deployment
Typically when developing for an Windows CE device such as a PDA you can use activesync to deploy the app and the version of .NET CF if its not available. Situation: Using Platform Builder CE5 have created an image (with .NET CF 1 as in the catalog). Given connectivity problems I often just build my CF apps to the FlatRelease directory and can then run on the device (OS running in debug mode) from there, or create a cab file on a memory stick which I then use to install to device. I assume that if I had activesync running on the device then when I run the app from VS the .NETCF2 files will be copie ...Show All
