  Hello, I am new at this, and am trying really hard to figure this problem out knowing there is a simple solution to it! Basically I created a form that allowed me to select an item from a list box.

• Visual Studio Team System Unit testing a form...

  We're trying to unit test the main form of our application. Things like instantiating the form, checking for the default controls, invoking something that creates a new panel, checking for focus inside this new panel... all these things work great. For testing navigation we're using the SendKeys class to send a Tab key press to the form from the unit test. This works fine when you run this test method independently. However, when I run my ent ...Show All

• Visual C# Need Tips on finding information (Vikram)

  I'm amazed how much info is available from MS.  I'm also shocked on how hard it is to find it. For instance: I was trying to find how to set the node in a tree view.  I searched and searched and I could find nothing.  This was a dumb thing on my part because I didn't hoover long enough with my mouse. Someone showed me an example here on the forum.

• Visual C++ VC2005 %50 Slower then VC2003

  I just migrated a graphics application from VC2003 to VC2005.  After building it, I ran a small benchmark & found that VC2005 code was about %50 slower. The Application does a great deal of floating point and integer calculations.  It also converts doubles to int quite a bit (the VC2003 version used SSE to handle this). The VC2003 version used /G7 and /Ow (which are not available in VC2005) Compiler Switches Used: (vc2003)/arch ...Show All
