• Windows Forms passing variables between forms again :)

  I have read about five different threads about passing variables between forms and none of them have made much sense to me or helped me. I know i am very new and green but can't seem to figure it out. So one more time could some one help me in simple terms. Show me how to be able to access data from one form to the next. I am wanting to for example access a string that i have assigned in form1 and use it in form 2. Don't know how to do it. I am using VS 2005 C# Thanks for any help with me being so dense. Generally the easiest way is to make a property (accessor method) on the form that has the variable and a ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Custom Checkin policy error

  Hello, I made a custom checkin policy which just asks if you are sure to checkin (its a demo), i then place it in C:\test\ and register the policy under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\8.0\TeamFoundation\SourceControl\Checkin Policies (With its path and dll name!).

• SQL Server HELP: REPORTING SERVICES Pie Chart Point Label Formatting

  I'm trying to complete a report with a few pie charts. these charts need to show the category, the associated revenue, and the % of total. I can get the first two but am having a problem with trying to add the % to the label. This is the only show-stopper for my report. thanks You can calculate the percentage by using an expression for the data point label.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. DirectX and Visual C# .NET Express???

  Hi, I'm trying to play around with DirectX and C#. I downloaded the C# Express edition, and the latest DirectX SDK. After installing the DirectX SDK, I tried to add a reference to my project for Microsoft.DirectX, but I couldn't find anything DirectX under the .NET tab. Then I went through the browse tab looking within the directory structure for the DirectX SDK, and couldn't find C# would reference to. I then browsed to the C:\Windows\Assembly directory, and found all the Microsoft.DirectX stuff, but C# express wouldn't add those as references. Is there a setting I'm missing somewhere, or does DirectX not work with C# exp ...Show All

• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums Programatically Add Pages to MultiPage Control

  Can someone please provide assistance in adding pages to a MultiPage control programatically. I wish to add pages based on a user's input. Thanks for any assistance. Hi, this will do it... use the MutiPage control's Pages collection to Add a new page, the first parameter is the name of the new page, the second parameter is the caption. This returns a Page object of the Page you added. You can use to modify any properties of the new Page.

• .NET Development WSE/DIME - ResponseSoapContext.Current = <undefined value>

  Why isn't the ASP.NET runtime providing a valid reference to the ResponseSoapContext object to my WebService I'm trying to use WSE and DIME to send attachments via Web Service. I created a brand new WebService project and added in the reference to WSE. I didn't modify the Web.Config file myself, but when I looked I was pleasantly surprised to see that all entries were added automatically for me (see Web.config file below). Here is the Web Service method which I've defined: [WebMethod]   public int DropDIMEOnMe(string FileSpec)   {       SoapContext respContext = ResponseSoapContext.Current;   &nbs ...Show All

• .NET Development Indigo: EndDeserialization event?

  One of the reoccurring problems I see in deserialization is the need to know that all objects are completely deserialized in order to perform dependency fixups. This often happens when reconstructing a readonly collection during deserialization. For example, the Control.Controls collection. Neither the parent or child deserialization routines (OnDeserailized, IDeserializationCallback) can reestablish the relationship since neither knows if the other has been completely deserialized. I'm curious if Indigo offers a solution to the problem or if there is some mechanizm I'm missing in .Net 2.0 that provides the functionality. The way I currentl ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Visual Studio and Design view

  I all community members! I have been using VS2005 B2 for the two month and found it extremely proficient in our development enviroment. I don't know if this thread is in the correct place, but I've been having some difficulty working on a user control designed by another team member, who's also using VS2005 B2. The problem is that the user who created the user control checked in back into VSS2005 and can work on it fine on his side, that was for argument's sake 4 days ago. Yesterday morning I could still help him out on this control with a design fault he was experiencing, checked it in so he can continue then later that same day I, for ...Show All

• Visual Basic Data Sources Window DBConcurrencyException

  Hi,   In our projects we create central classes for manipulating databases (connections, updating, …). We also created a public procedure for updating SQL-dataadapters who are able to treat " DBConcurrencyException. We not only use the merge procedure to enable the system to accept our changes, but we also test if another user has changed field(s) we didn’t change. So we accept his changes and merge it with our changes. We had to write this procedure because we didn’t find a method in VS2005 (nor in older versions) to do this job for us. Maybe there is one   But my principal question is another. In VS2 ...Show All
