    - Microphone not working I have recently purchased a web-cam with in-built microphone. My daughter also purchased the exact same one. On her computer the mic is working fine, although on my computer the mic does not work at all. Does anyone have any idea why it is not picking it up??? I have Windows XP home edition. We compared setting with our computer and her, there was a difference in Speech Recognizer. I have Microsoft English Recognizer v5.1 and she has Microsoft English (U.S) v6.1 Recognizer Could this be the reason my mic is not working??? If so how do i upgrade to the verson she has??

    - Click Once - dead links - Process.Start I have deployed several small .net clickonce applications on vista 64 bit/vs2008 and for the most part these work fine. In order to navigate between these applications we have developed a program that calls these programs by Process.Start( "\\unc\publish\app.application"). On Vista, where this was developed, everything works has expected. But once this was deployed to XP the ClickOnce applications just will not run/install. Navigating from XP to the publish directory and double clicking the app.application files yields no response. No events logs, nothing. I have checked the file association for .application and that is correct. If I deploy these apps to a web site I can install and run them on XP, I just can't programmatically start them from XP. Any ideas where to start? -- Scott Tag: Recurring Appointments in Vista Calender Tag: 230096

    - INSERT Problem This is driving me crazy ... I have a typed dataset that I created using VS2008. I created an Insert statement: "INSERT INTO x (v1, v2, v3, ..., vN) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ... N?)" Then I add parameters to the Insert command (OleDbCommand BTW, going into an Access database): myOldDbCommandInsert.Parameters.Add(new OleDbParameter("columnName", OleDbType.DBTimeStamp)); myOldDbCommandInsert.Parameters.Add(new OleDbParameter("columnName2", OleDbType.Char)); ... myOldDbCommandInsert.Parameters.Add(new OleDbParameter("columnNameN", OleDbType.UnsignedInt)); Now I set my default values: myOldDbCommandInsert.Parameters["c1"].Value = defaultValue1; myOldDbCommandInsert.Parameters["c2"].Value = defaultValue2; ... myOldDbCommandInsert.Parameters["cN"].Value = defaultValueN; Then I create my data adapter: OleDbDataAdapter a = new OleDbDataAdapter("SELECT * FROM x", myConn); Then the dataset: MyCustomDataSet ds = new MyCustomDataSet(); a.Fill(ds.MyCustomTable); So far, everything has worked fine up until this point. So now, I simply want to add rows to MyCustomTable: SomeLoopWith5ValuesOrWhatever { MyCustomDataSet.MyCustomRowA r = (cast) MyCustomDataSet.MyCustomTable.NewRow(); r.v1 = x; r.v2 = y; r.v3 = z; r.nN = N; myDataSet.myDataTable.Rows.Add(r); } Stepping through the debugger, that appears to do exactly what I expect. I can see that the table gets the new rows, and they have the correct values. However, when I do the following: myDataAdapter.Update(myDataSet, "NameOfCorrectTable"); The correct number of rows are added to the correct table, but they do not have the new values?!! They are keeping the default values that I set earlier in my code. Why is my INSERT statement using these default values? It's been a while since I messed with database stuff. Thanks.

    - Equivalent of template specialization using .NET Generics? I know that template specializtion is not included in generics, but was wondering whether or not there is an elegant alternative? The first function is always called, but I was hoping that for instances of type RealPoint (ComparePointByFiaNumber<RealPoint)>) the second function would be called. To implement different behavious based upon the type, do I have to have a switch within Equals() that will check the type of T and then call different functions as needed? Many thanks, Duncan generic<typename T> ref class ComparePointByFiaNumber : Generic::IEqualityComparer<T> { public: virtual bool Equals( T x, T y ) { Generic::IEqualityComparer<T>^ equalityComparer = Generic::EqualityComparer<T>::Default; return equalityComparer->Equals( x,y ); } virtual bool Equals( RealPoint^ x, RealPoint^ y ) { return true; } Tag: Recurring Appointments in Vista Calender Tag: 230080

    - Unusual Calendar invitation failure notification All, I've been trying to wrap my head around this for quite sometime and it seems to be a growing issue. Below is the problem and my troubleshooting thus far: Outlook 2k3 Server w/ Outlook 2k3 Clients w/ Office SP2 installed Two people, UserA and UserB, are trying to setup an appointment within Outlook 2k3. UserA sends UserB a meeting invitation and immediately gets a failure notice that it could not send to another User, UserC. Now UserC was never on the invitation between UserA and UserB. Note that UserB does not have to accept the meeting invitation for the failure notice to go to UserA. I have looked at UserB's Calender permissions and UserC is not listed in there at all. I've also taken UserB's Outlook account out of cached mode and run a Global Address List update which where that account for UserC would reside. **These failures tend to start as soon as UserC's account is deleted** We have also searched out Exchange Server for UserC's username or any reference to such and come up with nothing. Also a note is that it doesn't matter who tries to setup an appointment with UserB they always get a failure notice that references UserC's Undeliverable. The only way we've been able to solve this so far is to completely wipe out UserB's Email account by saving all thier data to a PST file and then rebuilding it. I'm wondering since my UserC is a Outlook 2k3 dependant individual if there is something else I can look for to fix this situation. Tag: Recurring Appointments in Vista Calender Tag: 230073

    - Assembly.LoadFrom fails on Vista,as does IE hosted user controls Hi, I have just upgraded a user machine to Vista (our first) as a test. Unfortunately a couple of our apps are failing due to Vista... 1. One app that loads an assembly from an Intranet website now fails with FileNotFound on a call to Assembly.LoadFrom(url). This still works fine on all XP SP2 systems in the company. 2. Maybe related... Our Intranet hosts a couple of csharp user controls in webpages, these too are not loading now on the Vista machine. It works on all XP SP2 machines. Does anyone have any suggestions as to why the two behaviours happen (.Net 2.0 and IE 7 is being used all round). Thanks!

    - Opening an MSAccess DB I am struggling with some MSAccess automation issues. Basically, we have a .Net application that uses MSAccess for reporting (legacy code). We are able to launch MSAccess fine and even work with the MSAccess COM objects to run our reports (using GetObject(<MDB Path>) - see http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;317113&Product=vbNET for info on how to do this). The problem that we are running into is that if our Access database is already opened, we want to use it instead of opening up another instance. I've included the code I've got so far in case it helps with the problem. The problem line of code is in ValidateAccessHandle (the exact line is - mAccessHandle = GetObject(imsAppConfig.DefaultMainMenuMDB)). If this line is commented out and an instance of MSAccess is already running with our database, a new MSAccess window will be launched, but the original MSAccess window will be returned from GetObject(<MDB Path>). If we leave it in, on some machines, if MSAccess isn't running, it will create an instance without the window. Since we need pass MSAccess command-line parameters, this doesn't work for us (also, a report tends to be more interesting when you can see it :). Any help is appreciated, thanks! Private Function ValidateAccessHandle() As Boolean If mAccessHandle Is Nothing Then Try ' Check to see if there is an orphaned window. ' If we don't check, we'll end up opening another window, but using the existing one anyway. mAccessHandle = GetObject(imsAppConfig.DefaultMainMenuMDB) If mAccessHandle Is Nothing Then Return False Catch ex As Exception ' On some machines, GetObject throws an untyped exception when the file is not found. mAccessHandle = Nothing Return False End Try End If Try mAccessHandle.run("") Return True Catch ex As System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException When ex.ErrorCode = -2146820336 Debug.Assert(ex.Message = "You made an illegal function call.", "Unexpected error message.", String.Format("The message for this exception was expected to be 'You made an illegal function call.' but was actually '{0}'", ex.Message)) ' The Access window was closed normally (reproducable by closing Access) and we need to reopen it. mAccessHandle = Nothing Return False Catch ex As System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException When ex.ErrorCode = -2147023174 Debug.Assert(ex.Message = "The RPC server is unavailable.

    - Compare timespan of Files? II want to compare how many seconds there are between files. If the files are within a 1 - 10 second range I want to copy them to their own folders. What I have so far is a couple methods that take in all the files in a directory / subdirectories and sort them by their lastWriteTime stamp: Dim flist As List(Of System.IO.FileInfo) Private Sub writeDirectories(ByVal ParentPath As String) For Each sDirectory As String In System.IO.Directory.GetDirectories(ParentPath) flist.AddRange(New DirectoryInfo(sDirectory).GetFiles()) writeDirectories(sDirectory) Next End Sub Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load flist = New List(Of System.IO.FileInfo) writeDirectories("C:\Documents and Settings\ddivita\My Documents") flist.Sort(AddressOf SortByLastWriteTime) End Sub Private Function SortByLastWriteTime(ByVal x As System.IO.FileInfo, ByVal y As System.IO.FileInfo) As Integer Return x.LastWriteTime.CompareTo(y.LastWriteTime) End Function I then want to take the flist and compare the TimeSpan between files. Here is an example: File1 - TimeStamp - 5:16:46 File2 - TimeStamp - 5:16:50 File3 - TimeStamp - 5:16:54 File4 - TimeStamp - 3:56:37 File5 - TimeStamp - 3:56:42 I realize I would need to compare file1 to file2, then file2 to file3, and so on. I figure I could use the timespan class to help with this. Any ideas? Thanks Daniel Tag: Recurring Appointments in Vista Calender Tag: 230065

    - setting a connection string for a Windows Service on production Feel free to let me know if there is a better place to post this question I'm a website developer trying to write a Windows Service, and I think I'm running into trouble due to the paradigm shift. In website development, I change the web.config file on the fly without re-building a project. How does this work with the app.config in a Windows Service? It seems like when I update a ConnectionString in app.config after rolling to a production server, it doesn't take. Does app.config get complied into the executable on build so that I can't change it on the fly? If so, how would I set it up to be able to configure the db connection string on the production server?

    - (apparent) Marshalling related problem in x64 but works in x86 Hi, I'm pretty sure I've just got a Marshalling problem, but I'm completely stumped. If there is a better newsgroup to post this in, please point me towards it. First I'm trying to use SendMessage() with WM_COPYDATA to send a string data between two instances of a program. As part of the debugging I've written two methods one where a given instance will obtain its own hWnd and send itself the message, one where it accepts obtains the hWnd of the other instance and sends it to the other one. Both methods work fine when compiled as x86. And the send-to-itself works on x64, but the send-to-another-instance breaks... the WM_COPYDATA message is sent, and received, but I'm unable to read back the string data. I *think* its a marshalling problem related to changes with x64. But I'm not sure. Here are the relevant bits: // The COPYDATA structure used for the WM_COPYDATA message: [StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)] public struct COPYDATASTRUCT { [MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.U4)] public int dwData; // not used [MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.U4)] public int cbData; // holds length of string [MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPStr)] public string lpData; //holds string } //DLL Import of SendMessage [DllImport("user32.dll", CharSet=CharSet.Ansi)] private static extern IntPtr SendMessage(IntPtr hWnd, [MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.U4)] int Msg, IntPtr wParam, ref COPYDATASTRUCT lParam); //The function that sends the message: public static IntPtr SendCopyDataMessage(IntPtr toHandle) { int messageid = 1234; // random message id stringdata = "Testing\0"; // send the string "Testing" // Create/populate the copydata structure. COPYDATASTRUCT dataStruct = new COPYDATASTRUCT(); dataStruct.dwData = 0; //not used dataStruct.cbData = stringdata.Length; dataStruct.lpData = stringdata; // Make the call IntPtr result = SendMessage(toHandle, WM_COPYDATA, messageid, ref dataStruct); return result; } The WndProc that receives the messages is an override of Form.WndProc: // Process Custom Messages! protected override void WndProc(ref Message m) { if (m.Msg == WM_COPYDATA) { // unpack the data string stringdata = ProcessWM_COPYDATA(m); // show what it was if (stringdata != null) { MessageBox.Show(stringdata); } } base.WndProc(ref m); } The function it calls to unpack the COPYDATA structure is as follows: public static string ProcessWM_COPYDATA(System.Windows.Forms.Message m) { if (m.WParam.ToInt32() == 1234) { COPYDATASTRUCT datastruct = (COPYDATASTRUCT)Marshal.PtrToStructure( m.LParam, typeof(COPYDATASTRUCT)); return datastruct.lpData; } return null; } } As I said: It works when targeted at x86. In x64 it also works when I fire the send message at the same instance. (e.g. I have a button on the form that calls the SendCopyData(...) with its own window handle. The only time it doesn't work is when I have 2nd instance running and it calls SendCopyData(...) with the hWnd of the OTHER instance. In that case the message is received, and the MessageBox is displayed, but instead of saying testing its either blank or contains garbage data. I'd be grateful if someone can point out where I've screwed it up. As I said, I think its in marshalling/unmarshalling the lpData string, but I'm at a loss to fix it. I've tried doing it a number of ways, including setting lpData in COPYDATASTRUCTURE to an IntPtr, and then manually calling Marshal.StringToHGlobal(stringdata); and then when unpacking it, calling Marshal.PtrToString(lpData), but I end up with the same behaviour... breaking in x64. -best regards, Dave Tag: Recurring Appointments in Vista Calender Tag: 230015

The goal is a real-time view of the page as it is edited. Is it possible for a .Net app to trap these events and respond accordingly? I have googled for soem code examples, but haven't found anything yet. Do you know of any code examples of this? Thanks so much for your time! jim Tag: Recurring Appointments in Vista Calender Tag: 229990

    - Creating a 'proxy' redirector Hi, We have web application X where I work that allows us to access documents via a url, for eg, http://hostname/app.cgi?request_dcoument?userid=yer?password=ner etc... What we would like is for our asp.net app Y to make this request (for the purpose of hiding the above URL) but let web application X hosting the document to stream the data back to the client. Is there any functionality to do this in .net? One idea i had was for the webserver to download the file in chunks and simply pass the data on to the client, however, i don't want to put strain on the server so Id rather avoid this. It consumes lots of memory too. Thanks in advance Vince Tag: Recurring Appointments in Vista Calender Tag: 229980

    - typed datasets vs. business objects I'm trying to decide if it is better to use typed datasets or business objects, so I would appreciate any thoughts from someone with more experience. When I use a business object to populate a gridview, for example, I loop through a datareader, populating an array list with instances of a custom class in the middle tier, and then send the array list up to the presentation layer and bind the gridview to it. If I use a typed dataset, I just fill it with a data adapter and then bind it to the gridview. It seems like the typed dataset would be more efficient, because I don't have to loop through anything. But typed datasets are aggravating, because it seems like they have to be defined all the way down at the data access layer to be accessible in a n-tier solution. They clutter up my solution. Business objects seem tidier, and seem more professional, but are they as efficient, with all the looping required? Thanks Bill Tag: Recurring Appointments in Vista Calender Tag: 229977

    - Alternate Function for CreateFile on .NET Framework,... Hi all, sorry for Crossposting, but i dont know whether someone can help me here. If i remember right, there was a Class or a Member function in the .NET Framework that could do mostly the same as CreateFile can do for me, but i cant remember its Name. By saying the "same" i mean i was able to use it to open Handles to Devices and anything that could be opened with CreateFile and had a Symbolic Name that has been exported from Kernel to User-Space. But i cant remember the class/member name. I am sure there was something inside the .NET FW and natively supported by the .NET. AFAIK it was also something MS used internally in its base classes, but it was exposed to any programmer and was public/static or whatever available from the CLR/.NET. I really cant remember its name, but i used something in the past years ago for opening something, if i remember right to a drive. I think i used it the first time with .NET 2.0... Anybody can help me here, or am i remembering something wrong?

    - Professional design advice needed Hi, We have an events page in our company that's database driven and we need to shared it with our partners. They need to pull information from our site. They can be running asp, php, .jsp..etc. I was thinking of using a web services and returning datatable (maybe to XML). Is that the best approach? Or should I just take it as a Url parameter and return an XML file? Any suggestions here would really help me. I really appreciate your input on this.

    - Apparent Rogue Process During the course of today I have noticed a considerable degredation in system performance. On checking task manager I have found a process ("agent.exe") that is running and gradually using more and more memory. Having checked MSCONFIG this would not appear to be a start-up process. However, when I terminate the process, it automatically restarts and repeats the memory hugging all over again. How can I :- 1) Establish what is triggering this process and 2) Prevent it from running. Thanks, -- Gary Tag: Recurring Appointments in Vista Calender Tag: 229956

    - WebService and Timeout Hi. I'm dealing with scenario when call to any web method ends up with timeout and I try to add the user a chance to retry (wait a little bit) My service proxy code looks like this: AsyncCallback cb = new AsyncCallback(ServiceCallback); IAsyncResult result1 = BeginInvoke(methodName, parameters, cb, this); if(result1.IsCompleted == false) { while(true) { bTO = result1.AsyncWaitHandle.WaitOne(Timeout, true); if(bTO == false)//time out occured { //display window and ask the user to wait a moment, user press OK when it sure that web method finished } if(result1.IsCompleted) break; } object[] ret = EndInvoke(result1);// error every time when time out occured (bTO = false) } My scenario is following: 1. BeginInvoke initialize asynch web method call 2. WaitOne waits for Timeout miliseconds 3. WaitOne returns false because timeout occured, and wait screen is displayed. When user close it the web methos is finished. 4. result1.IsCompleted is true so I expect that EndInvoke shall return the results but it throws excpetion "timeout" !!!. Why? Everything works fine if timeout doesn't occure. Thanks for any advise Shark Tag: Recurring Appointments in Vista Calender Tag: 229954

    - SQL installation:"Login failed for user 'sa'" I want to install SQL express edition on a laptop with vista home basic, but I faced a lot of problems.I have this error: SQL Setup could not connect to the database service for server configuration. The error was:[Microsoft][SQL Native client][SQL Server] Login failed for user 'sa'.refer to server error logs ans setup logs for more information. I went to Microsoft 'help and support center'. I found a page that describes my problem. it is available at 'bug#431174'. It said that I must delete some specific temporary files and goto SQL configuration Manager and start the SQL Server services. I delete those files, but I couldn't start the "MSSQLSERVER" in SQL configuration Manager. I tried to do that. It was going to be started, but in the middle of the progress, it stopped. I do it several times, but it did not start. I think the main problem that I can't install SQL Server is: I can't make the MSSQLSERVER start.what can I do?Please help me!

Why did you post this question in a .net developer forum? Where did you find
this link?
