• Windows Forms Problem using DataGridView in DragDrop Event

  Hi   I would appreciate your help in solving my problem. I have a UserControl which contains the DataGridView (manually populated – with unbound data) and this control is used several times on the main form. It is here that I require to drag and drop (Move) rows of data from one DataGridView to another. The problem is when I try to add the new row to the DataGridView it adds an empty row, but when I look at the object I’m cloning it contains the correct data.

• Software Development for Windows Vista Taskbar Thumbnail API

  Our app currently does not display properly in the taskbar live thumbnail in build 5384.  It seems to not display any popup windows in the thumbnail.  Is there an API that allows us to construct our own thumbnail for this (or can we turn it off) Thanks. We've made several improvements in how applications appear in the Flip3D view and in thumbnails in builds later than the one you are using, and we are still working on it. By the time the OS is released your application should display correctly -- assuming we have the same understanding of what "correctly" means, of course. There are c ...Show All

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Word.Range.Font.Hidden???

  I'm setting various ranges within a Word document to be hidden. When the document is reloaded and I check to see if those same ranges are indeed hidden I get confusing values. Most of the time when I'm checking a range to see if it's hidden the value returned is either 0 or -1. True or false as expected. Sometimes I get a value of 9999999. What does this value mean I came across that one... it is WdConstants.wdUndefined If for some reason the status can't be determined the result will be this one. You can find it here in the list. Go to WdConstants and expand the group: http://msdn.microsoft.com/lib ...Show All

• SQL Server Using Transactions causes database connection to fail

  In one of my packages, I set the package-level property called TransactionOption=Required. During run-time I saw an error saying "[Execute SQL Task] Error: Failed to acquire connection "SQL_DW". Connection may not be configured correctly or you may not have the right permissions on this connection. ". When the property is changed to anything other than Required, it works fine (the calling package that calls this package is not involved in a transaction). The machine running the packages is Windows Server 2003, and so is the database where the data lives. I verified that the machine containing the database does has Ena ...Show All

• Visual C# Image size changing during rotation
