• .NET Development DataSet merge method

  Problem with DatSet merge method in .NET Framework 2.0 Beta2 I have an problem with the DataSet merge method: Our application middle tier returns an untyped DataSet which I merge into an typed DataSet. Something that works like: Dim ds As New DataSet SqlDataAdapter1.Fill(ds) DataSet11.Merge(ds) In .NET framework 1.1 the data is merged into the typed data table with correspondent tablename. In .NET framework 2.0 Beta2 the merge method adds new DataTables to the DataSet (after merge DataSet has two tables with same tablename) If this isn't a bug in .NET Framework 2.0 Beta2, what ist the best method to merge data Thx, Hansjoerg ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista problems communicating with the host

  Hi, I am trying to get host communication working because I need to communicate back to the host if for example, a process will be long running.

• SQL Server AggregationFunction = None

  Hi, this is what I find about the AggregationFunction "none": No aggregation is performed, and all values for leaf and nonleaf members in a dimension are supplied directly from the fact table for the measure group that contains the measure. If no value can be read from the fact table for a member, the value for that member is set to null. I understand that there will no calculated aggregation (this is quite obvious). But how can I retrieve a aggregation from a fact table How should I design a fact table including aggregates and how do I work with that Thanks, Look at: http://www.sqlserveranalysisservices.com/de ...Show All

• Visual Basic VB 2005 Window Stay On Top?

  I was trying to get my form (the main form Form1) to stay on top all other windows windows(such like the Windows Task Manager) but with no luck. I tried Google and came up with several approaches: One used the SetWindowPos API call but that generated some insanley cryptic message that the call '...unbalanced the stack...'. I also tried setting the form's TopMost property to true, but that only made the main form stay on top the other forms, in the the same project, not all other windows at runtime. So far I have nothing so if anyone had this problem before please say what I'm doing wrong (or not doing at all). Thanks in advanc ...Show All

• Windows Forms Possible MDI Bug in .Net 1.1

  I have created a MDI application with 2 childforms using VB.Net and VS 2003.   Each childform has some textboxes and a few buttons.  The textboxes have a  keypress handler that checks for the Enter key being pressed and then  converts it to a tab key so that the next control gets the focus.

• Visual Studio Express Editions New WinMain?

  Hi, I'm trying to test out a chapter of a directx book, and I get errors like I can't overload winmain. Why is this happening When I go back to my old vc++ 6.0, it compiles fine (there's a linking error, but that has to do with directx 9 not being supported). I mean, this shouldn't be that difficult, should it I've started a new, empty win32 application (not console). I create a new, blank file called winmain.cpp and I paste in the code. I compile it and it spits out a bunch of errors: 1>winmain.cpp 1>c:\documents and settings\jombee\my documents\visual studio 2005\projects\erase_me_2\erase_me_2\winmain.cpp(32) : error C273 ...Show All

  I can't figure out why this event is not being raised in my application. This is not my actual app but it is a simplified application that i created to try and figure out why my application is not working and even the simplified app doesnt work.  I am attempting to trigger the event with a device called the NetCallerID which is a caller ID that sends its data to the serial port of my PC.  I have tested the hardware in HyperTerminal and it works fine.  Am I doing something wrong or is there a BUG with this feature The events method is never triggering. using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.Text; usi ...Show All

• SQL Server ReportViewer Component

  Hi all, I'm creating a custom interface for reporting services but I am having a few problems. This is my environment: Using the ReportViewer component in remote mode to show my reports of the report server. There are 2 user levels of which any user can be apart of, Admin & user. In every report, there is a parameter called MERCHANTID, when the user who logs in (via custom login interface) is of group admin, then the merchantid parameter gets prompted before the report is run, if the group of the user is "user" then the merchantid parameter is hidden, and is passed programatically to the report. The report path also ...Show All

• Visual C# C# SQL and ASP

  Kinda lost... Basicly I have a webpage that is for ordering pizza (school project) and I need to be able to send the order to the SQL server. Bascily I have to take some data strings from ASP and with C# send it to SQL and write it to a table there. If anyone could tell me how to do that I would be jumping high in to the air :) I would personally create an SQL DB file with the appropriate fields needed, ie. Cust_Name, Address, Order, etc. After that, create data bindings for each textbox. The bindings will allow read and update from the SQL Database. I did a small project for class Saturday and learned about the data binding objects in ...Show All

• Visual C# INullableValue removed from .NET 2.0 RTM??

  I began the process of upgrading one of our Beta2 applications to run under the 2.0 RTM and the compiler is complaining that INullableValue cannot be found in the System namespace. Using the object browser I can verify that there isn't a INullableValue interface defined in the mscorlib assembly version 2.0.50727. Was it intentionally removed If so, why has the documentation not been updated to reflect that change The code I am trying to use has this form: if ( value is INullableValue && ( (INullableValue) value ).HasValue == false ) {    //do something } else if ( value == null ) {    //d ...Show All

• Visual C# How do I access a Form contained within an executable from a dll?

  Hi there, I'm having a bit of trouble figuring out how to do this, help would be appreachiated: I have a windows form inside an exe called frmWizard, it is just a wizard interface with some navigation controls and a header. The form loads wizard steps via. the type Wizard.Interop.Step (wizard.Interop is a seperate assembly) and Wizard.Interop.Step inherits System.Windows.Forms.UserContorl.
