• Software Development for Windows Vista Installing Multiple Versions of Platform SDK

  the forums categories all appear to be tool-centric, so this question is not precisely on-topic, but... how does one install multiple versions of the platform sdk   each version appears to remove the previous version.  <rant> in theory this should never be necessary as each sdk should be fully backward compatible but in fact some are not backward compatible.  e.g., the libraries with the latest sdk don't work with vb6. ...Show All

• Windows Forms Issues with Custom TextBox Control and simple Properties.

  Hi all, I have created this Custom Control that will (well, should) allow me to set the BackColor of my ReadOnly TextBox Controls to whatever Color I specify (instead of the standard dull Gray colour). Now I have created a Class and an Interface to do this, and have then added the Compiled .dll into the ToolBox and included the Control on a Windows Form. But, if I set the ReadOnly Property of the Control to True the BackColor of the Control is ...Show All

• .NET Development Expression Columns

  Let's say I have a typed dataset with one table in it. The table has 50 columns of type decimal. 49 of them are expression columns. Does this buy me anything when passing this data via web service Is it going to save bandwidth or does it get serialized even though its an expression The reason I ask is because I had always assumed it would make for a smaller download, but I just did Dataset.WriteXML and if you look in the file it shows a valu ...Show All

• Visual Basic global variables

  Is there a way to declare a variable inside a function or sub and make it usable within other functions or subs. I dont think so. If you declare a variable within a function its private scoped.

Class Level variable are established within the bounds of a class/module but not within a ...Show All
