• Microsoft ISV Community Center Forums project email updates set to not automatic

  Does anyone know how to turn off the email without turning off the ability to request status updates I don't want an email sent out every time I update something on a task to a resource. I would like to be able to control when an email gets sent to someone. Thanks! Per our support engineer: Thanks for using Microsoft ISV Community Forum. As you may know, Project Server leverages the alert functionality of Windows SharePoint Service to send out the notification on updates. So, in order to configure the E-mail notification settings, you may login the Project Web Access as a PM, and after the login, ...Show All

• Windows Forms Is there an underline control or clever workaround?

  Hi, I'm looking for an 'underline' control or some clever way of creating a similar effect. I want something to look just like this Eclipse dialog (link below); http://home.swiftdsl.com.au/~spurrymoses/pics/eclipse_dialog.jpg There is an underline underneath to top section and then underneath the 'Enclosing Type' checkbox. I tried fiddling with existing controls and looking for something in the Toolbox References but couldn't work anything out. Will I have to write my own custom control here. That would probably good practice but I just want to make sure I'm not reinventing the wheel first. On the sam ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Application won't run beyond splash screen on testing machines

  I have almost finished developing a rather extensive application that was in part upgraded from VB6. Since deployment is a bit different with VB Express than VB6, I've been trying to get a handle on this aspect. The compiled application runs on my development machine without any problems. I have loaded .net 2.0 framework on two different machines and have dealt with various issues and error messages, and now at the point where the splash screen starts up, but the main form doesn't come up. I've looked in the system log on the machines, and there's an system.invalidexception error, with P10 NIL. Here's my unhandled exception code (w ...Show All

• .NET Development Permissions required to Use System.Diagnostiscs namespace

  Hi, In ASP.NET 1.1, we have developed a module which includes a call to GetProcessById() function of System.Diagnostics.Process. This works fine if the ASP.NET is running under System context or if the ASPNET user is an administrator. The problem is, in the user's machine, the user context under which the ASP.NET is going to run should not have adminstrative privileges. At that time, this shows an exception with the following message. "Cannot get process information from the remote machine". Can you please tell what are all the access the ASPNET user must have , to get the process id Our environment is ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Keyboard driver modes - How would one implement two diff behavior?

  Hi, My WM2005 device has a sliding alpha-numeric keyboard.   When that keyboard is open on the WM2005 Today screen, the keyboard enters a "numlock" mode.  This is where some overloaded keys that act as the phone’s dial-pad only output numbers, not characters ( so a user can initiate a call from the Today screen ).  When an app such as Pocket Word has the focus however, the keyboard functions “normally”, meaning all keys output characters and a user must press the FN key plus an alpha-numeric key to generate a number.     I have written a custom Today screen item that accepts user input in a textbox.   ...Show All

• Visual Basic Frustrated at data source updates...

  I have been programming in VB6 and MS Access for about 3 years now and decided to move to VB2005. The walkthroughs are a great help especially with regards to data access.
