• Windows Forms Webbrowser Class vs IE

  Following example How to: Add Web Browser Capabilities to a Windows Forms Application  found at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/3s8ys666.aspx  almost works.   Sometimes, script errors occur with this example code on pages that never give errors in IE.  Unfortunately, the errors are not consistent. Sometimes everything works great. Other times, scripts errors are displayed. No matter how hard I try, I can't get the pages to fail when running IE. So, pages that always work in IE sometimes fail in the Web Browser control example code. In IE, Disable Script Debugging and Disable Debugging Other ar ...Show All

• Visual C++ Statc lib to be used by more MFC clients

  Hello, I have a question about linking a static library to clients with and without MFC. We have a static library (for Win XP and Win CE) that wraps the msxml component. We would like to have it as independent as possible so that we can use it with apps that use MFC or not, and also static and dynamically linked MFC. Is this even possible (I keep running into problems during linking). I have removed all MFC code from the library and replaced all ATL smartpointer with the STL (_com_ptr_t) smartpointers. Now I still get an error linking _com_issue_error. Any tips are appreciated. Martin A lib must ...Show All

• Visual Basic Catching SQL Server connection exception

  Hello All! I have a small VB 2005 read-only app with a SQL Server back end. I am working on error handling. When filling table adapters,I want to catch exceptions thrown when a SQL Server connection cannot be established and display a certain message to the user. I would like to test for an error number but I am not sure exactly wich kind of exception and property to look for. What's the best way to do this Is there a better way to test the connection before I try to fill a table adapter Thanks for the help. The Try...Catch block is the easiest way IMHO. You can check for specific errors/error types and handle them accordingy ...Show All

• SQL Server Error by converting string to decimal

  Hi, I'm trying to import a text-file into SQL2005 by using SSIS. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to work in the way I thought. Because I'm using the german version of SQL2005 I need to translate the items of my toolbox, so dont wonder if their names are not exactly the same as in the english versions. Try number1: a) My datasource is a flatfile, in the connection manager I changed the DataType for the input column to DT_DECIMAL. In my destination table the data type of ths column is decimal(20,4). Name of the column is "NXT_PUT_PX". b) Running this package results in this error: "Fehler bei der Datenkonvertierung. ...Show All

• Smart Device Development No Error Icon in DataGrid for rows with RowError?

  Hi folks, I have a DataGrid bound to a table, and one of the rows in that table has an error - its RowError property has been set. There is no red error icon in the row-header for that row, like there would be in the Windows Forms version of DataGrid. Is this right If so, how do I show the user which row has an error Ta, Matt DataGrid in NETCF is limited and has no support for that (and many other things). However, ADO.Net on NETCF supports providing row error information, so 3rd party DataGrid might work for you. Another solution would be to ensure you do not have rows with errors, for example by ver ...Show All

• Visual Studio Class Designer Questions

  Ramesh, 1) Is there a way to represent an assembly in the class designer. Or is class the highest level of abstraction supported Adding assembly will allow us to simply the class diagrams by representing a set of classes as one assembly. 2) Do you plan to add multiplicity to the associations. Vishwas, You can't represent an assembly in the class designer.  Class is the highest level of abstraction supported in V1. Class Designer allows viewing "collection" associations.  See my blog on this.  However, you can't create collection associations in V1. Thanks, Ramesh Rajagopal. ...Show All

  Quick question for anyone that might know.  How can a developer have their game added to the Games Explorer built into Vista during the game's installation process   Even big budget games aren't really doing this yet and I was wondering what the procedure will be.  Hopefully, it's as simple as just adding some content/media files to the right directory or something.  Thanks. ...Show All
