Excel in Office 2007
I have a problem with Excel in Office 2007. When I click on a .xls file,
Excel program opens but not the file required. I don't even get an Excel
page, simply the light blue screen of Excel. I have to manually open the
xls. files I need. Any ideas as to what could be causing this? I have tried
repairing Excel from the Control Panel and also checking Tools, Options,
other applications, etc. So far no results. Thank you. Tag: is that a new Microsoft website? Tag: 228698
Can legacy code call .NET?
At our company we have some old code written using Powersoft's Power++
(a RAD C++ product). Power++ has been discontinued for quite a while
now so we don't want to use it for new projects.
We'd like to write a program in .NET that can be called by an old
program we wrote in Power++. I'm assuming it is impossible to do that
on the code level. Is there perhaps another way that a legacy .dll
or .exe can call functionality in a .NET assembly?
Usually all the stuff I see on the internet is about .NET code calling
legacy code. And even then, it seems like it is calling .COM stuff or
unmanaged Visual C++ code. Tag: is that a new Microsoft website? Tag: 228696
CustomValidator in GridView getting "no message" on errors
I have a gridview and have placed customvalidator controls in it.
If I put a break on the sub to do custom validation, run the page, select a
row and press the EDIT button, putting me into Update/Cancel mode, I can edit
the date textbox putting in garbage and press update. It takes the
breakpoint, I step thru, it sets value.isValid=False, and when I exit
routine, same sub fires again (hits same break point) and flow values same
path. Garbage date value still there. If I continue on now, it displays the
gridview, original value of date textbox is back, my error message is not
displayed, but I'm still in Update/Cancel mode,not Edit mode so the update
didn't take place.

What Framework Classes Do You Use the Most?
I could use some feedback from you all in the .NET community. Here's
the question, in a nutshell:
Aside from the data types shown below, what classes in the .NET
Framework do you use most frequently in the applications that you
develop?
The data types and classes I'd like to exclude from this list are:
* Array
* Boolean
* Byte
* Char
* IDbConnection
* DateTime
* Decimal
* Double
* Enum
* Int16
* Int32
* Int64
* List
* Object
* SByte
* Single
* String
* IDbTransaction
* UInt16
* UInt32
* Uint64
Once you've thought about this, I'd like to ask a follow-up question:
When using these objects as parameters to methods or constructors, how
do you typically test them for validity? For example, do you test them
for null, string length, values, status, etc.?
The Why of It All
-------------------------
I'm working on an open source parameter validation framework written
in C#. You can find the thing at www.nvalidate.org. The idea is that
it turns this:
if (null == foo)
throw new ArgumentNullException(foo);
if (string.Empty == foo)
throw new ArgumentException("foo", "string parameter cannot be
empty.");
Into this:
Demand.That(foo, "foo").IsNotNullOrEmpty()
It's already had an alpha release, and provides validators for all the
data types listed above. (There's a test matrix available on the web
site that details the supported test types.) What I'd like to do now,
in the next release, is expand the supported tests to increase its
utility.
I'm already casting my steely gaze on the following Framework classes:
HashTable
* IsNotEmpty
* IsNotNull
* HasCount(int)
* IsFixedSize
* IsNotFixedSize
* IsReadOnly
* IsNotReadOnly
* IsSynchronized
* IsNotSynchronized
* Contains(string key)
* Contains(string key, object value)
Stack
* IsNotEmpty
* IsNotNull
* HasCount(int expectedCount)
* HasCount(int minCount, int maxCount)
* HasMaxCount(int expectedCount)
* HasMinCount(int expectedCount)
DataReaders:
* OdbcDataReader
* Contains(string columnName)
* Contains(string columnName, DbType type)
* Contains(string columnName, DbType type, int length)
* HasFieldCount(int expectedCount)
* HasRows()
* IsNotNull()
* IsOpen()
* OracleDataReader
* Contains(string columnName)
* Contains(string columnName, DbType type)
* Contains(string columnName, DbType type, int length)
* HasFieldCount(int expectedCount)
* HasRows()
* IsNotNull()
* IsOpen()
* SqlDataReader
* Contains(string columnName)
* Contains(string columnName, SqlDbType type)
* Contains(string columnName, SqlDbType type, int length)
* HasFieldCount(int expectedCount)
* HasRows()
* IsNotNull()
* IsOpen()
* Socket
* Is(socket)
* IsAvailable
* IsBlocking
* IsNotBlocking
* IsConnected
* IsNot(socket)
* IsNotConnected
* IsNotNull
* IsValid(addressFamily, protocolType, socketType)
* HasAddressFamily(addressFamily)
* HasLocalEndPoint(endPoint)
* HasProtocolType(protocolType)
* HasRemoteEndPoint(endPoint)
* HasType(socketType)
* HasValidHandle
Streams:
* BufferedStream (Inherits StreamValidator)
* CryptoSream (Inherits StreamValidator)
* Stream
* CanRead
* CanSeek
* CanWrite
* HasLength(int expectedLength)
* HasLength(int minLength, int maxLength)
* IsAtEndOfStream()
* IsAtPosition(int expectedPosition)
* IsAtStartOfStream()
* IsEmpty()
* IsNotEmpty()
* IsNotNull()
* FileStream (Inherits StreamValidator)
* HasName()
* HasValidHandle()
* IsAsync()
* IsNotAsync()
* MemoryStream (Inherits StreamValidator)
* HasCapacity(int expectedCapacity)
* HasMinimumCapacity(int expectedCapacity)
* NetworkStream (Inherits StreamValidator)
* HasDataAvailable()
I think you get the idea. :-)
So, the questions stand. What classes do you guys use, and what kinds
of parameter tests do you *actually* perform on them? I'd rather focus
on the classes that get the most use, and the tests that provide the
biggest bang for your buck.
Any help you can provide would be GREATLY appreciated!
Thanks!

Speech application and grammar
Hi all
I am trying to write an application that will respond to voice commands and
then give feedback with voice using text to speech. This is being written in
.NET 3.x using C#
I got the TTS stuff working but am having a bear of a time with the speech
recognition.
There does not seem to be much written about it and what is written often is
just plain wrong. Or I am just stupid. Either way, I am having problems.
The xml grammar file is blowing my mind.
I can get very simple one word or a hard coded sentence to be recognized but
I know the app should be much more flexible than that. What I would like to
do is have a group of 4 commands that can be recognized as single words OR as
words embedded in common phrases. Basically, I am only interested in the
single command but would like the user to be able to ask it in several
different ways.
Once a command is chosen, I would like to then have another set of commands
be available and perhaps more commands under each of them in a tree type
structure. However, the user should only be able to issue commands that are
current at a particular node level of the tree. None below, above, or
siblings should be able to be issued.
I know that this can be done with an xml based grammar file but I am
floundering at the moment.
Could someone please upload a simple example of how I could implement such a
thing in the xml grammar? Or point me to a resource that is more clear than
the current dot net documentation?
many thanks,

SPF: Grid in a context menu - is this possible?
In Visual Studio, if you hover over an item, the IDE open up a context menu
with an expandable [+] sign. Clicking on this then brings up a context menu
that appears as a grid. Clicking on sub items with a [+] then open up
further contextmenus etc, etc.
I'd like to be able to open up a context menu in WPF that also contains a
grid (ideally data-bound to a List(of myObject)) but don't know how to do
this....any ideas?

Question from .net beginner regarding rebuilding custom class library
I have two vb.net projects, one that creates a class library and
another that uses ("consumes") the class library. Whenever I rebuild
the class library project then use it in the consumer project the
consumer project won't compile unless I delete the reference to the
class library in the consumer project then re-add the reference. This
is time consuming and error-prone.
? Is there a better way to handle this situation ?

FIND THIS INTERESTING BUG IN C#
THIS SEEMS TO BE A BUG !!
Watch this : (In C# )
IHTMLElement oElement = (IHTMLElement)myChildren.Current;
I have created an object of IHTMLELement interface.
Now when i do the following :
Line 1) oElement.setAttribute("uip_copyZeroLeft",oElement.style.pixelLeft, 0)
;
Line 2) oElement.setAttribute("uip_copyZeroTop",oElement.style.pixelTop,0);
i.e. i am making new attributes & assigning the already defined values to
them. The issue i get it after the first line is executed, a value of
pixelLeft say 112 is stored in uip_CopyZeroLeft.
Now, when the Line 2 is executed a new attribute is not created(i.e.
uip_CopyZeroTop) is not created rather the previous attribute
uip_CopyZeroLeft is overwritten with the latest value given(i.e. now
uip_CopyZeroLeft stores the value of pixelTop).
This is rather funny.
If anyone can have the will n time to get a fix/a corresponding suggestion
to this problem, i would be really grateful.
Thanking all,

Public Shared Dataset
I'm just trying to wrap something around my head and am looking for some
pro's vs con's on this scenario of what I am thinking of trying...
If someone with some experience with this could point me in the right
direction -
Lets say you have an MDI and 2 forms that open in that app.
Each form looks at the customer database but displays it differently.
If a customer gets added on form1, you would want it to instantly show up on
form2.
Same data - just displays the info differently.
So im assuming there are 2 options to do this:
1. on the MDI form, have a 'global' public shared dataset, so as a dataset
gets refreshed, it refreshes the new records instanlty on both
2. Keep track if the other form is open, if it is, and a refresh occurs on
this dataset, and its connection, refresh the other / shoot the one new
record over

Implementing Unmanaged Interface in C#
Hi,
I have an unmanged interface which i have exposed through COM to C#. I
have been able to implement the interface in one of the C# classes
(say Class1) as well.
But now what i want to do is that i need to pass the reference of the
object of Class1 to this COM wrapper...and then from inside that
wrapper i want to call one of the func of that class1.
What i did roughly is something like this:
/
*********************************************************************************************************/
//this is the interface that was exposed
// IExportedClassWrapper
[
object,
uuid("7DD5445A-A8AE-471C-A065-629C3A004362"),
dual, helpstring("IExportedClassWrapper Interface"),
pointer_default(unique)
]
__interface IExportedClassWrapper : IDispatch
{
[id(4), helpstring("method CheckInterfaceOne")] HRESULT
CheckInterfaceOne(IDispatch* a, [out,retval] LONG* RetParam);
};
/
*********************************************************************************************************/
/
*********************************************************************************************************/
STDMETHODIMP CExportedClassWrapper::CheckInterfaceOne(IDispatch* a,
LONG* RetParam)
{
// TODO: Add your implementation code here
IExportedClassWrapper* objI = static_cast<IExportedClassWrapper*>(a);
//THIS IS THE LINE ON WHICH I'M GETTING EXCEPTION
//SAYING THAT THE CALLING CONVENTION IS NOT RIGHT....
objI->MethodSampleReturn(RetParam);
return S_OK;
}
/
*********************************************************************************************************/
/
*********************************************************************************************************/
//then the C# class implemented it like
public class Class1 : SampleCISCOATLCOMWrapper.IExportedClassWrapper
{
public Class1()
{
//
// TODO: Add constructor logic here
//
}
#region IExportedClassWrapper Members
public int CheckInterfaceOne(object a)
{
// TODO: Add Class1.CheckInterfaceOne implementation
//THIS IS THE METHOD
THAT I WANT TO CALL FROM COM
return 20;
}
#endregion
}
/
*********************************************************************************************************/
//and then i used this interface like this in C#
SampleCISCOATLCOMWrapper.CExportedClassWrapperClass objCl = new
SampleCISCOATLCOMWrapper.CExportedClassWrapperClass();
Class1 objClass = new Class1();
int nRet = objCl.CheckInterfaceOne(objClass);
/
*********************************************************************************************************/
this whole thing is sort of circular....:)
I think you got an idea of what i want to do...
Is it possible? :)
And how?
Note: I dont have much experience in COM ...

Installing VS - sql develop edition
I am installing VS 2008 pro,
First I uninstalled all express editions, and also sql express.
Then installing vs 2008 pro it installed sql express again.
Then inserting cd #2, for the SQL developer edition, it wants to update sql
express, but i notice with the service pack 2 that not all options are
available for the sql instance.
Should I have re-uninstalled sql express after vs2008 installed it again and
have just 1 clean developer edition on?
I am a bit confused.
In the mean time I will uninstall all sql instances and then try to
re-install from the cd from scratch.
Seeing that I can always re-install sql express if thats the way to go about
it.

Interfaces to MS Exchange/Outlook to add Calendar appointments or

possible and how difficult it might be to interface with MS Ecxhange or
Outlook from a business application and add items to a user's calendar, task
list, or at a minimum to set a follow up flag in an email.
We are running Exchange 2003 and a variety of MS Outlook 2000 and 2003. We
do have plans to upgrade to Office/Outlook 2007 in the near future and I'm
not sure when an exhange server upgrade is being planned for. So the
solution we put in place will need to be upward compatible for when we

Is it possible/how to skip the first dialog in setup bootstrap?
Hi,
We have created a setup project for an app in MS VS .Net with Windows
Installer Bootstrapper selected. When installing the app, we wonder if it is
possible to start the installation using setup.exe without being asked the
question to either start the installation or to quit the installation (the
first dialog that appears)? Can it be done in Orca or in another tool and how?
(We know that this behaviour is accomplished when we start the installation
using the msi file but we'd like to use setup.exe)

Internationalization Support in 3.5 - What's New?
I'm preparing for a major ASP.NET development effort that will require
extensive internationalization support. I have a bunch of resources and I'm
happy with those - with the exception that they cover the 2.0 version of the
.NET Framework.
I would appreciate it if someone could point me to some online resource that
describes "what's new with internationalization" in .NET 3.5.
And yes, I'm clear on the fact that 3.5 is additive to 2.0 and so the 2.0
features are still "current.".
I'm just wanting to ensure that I'm not missing anything new (to the 3.5
bits regarding internationalization) before I finalize my design.
Oh, and google proved unhelplful - or at least I failed to enter whatever
search term(s) would return what I'm specifically looking for.

When i doubleclick on an .SLN file it attempts to open up the solution in
Visual Studio 2003. Is there a way to change the default so it will
automatically open the solution in 2005?
Thanks,

Server Replication Software: What are folks using?
It's that time of the year again where we get annoyed with our internal
product and hope to find something newer and better out there. Alas, we
usually don't find anything.
The scenario:
We use a home-grown .net CMS product that we've built in a staging/live
server enviornment. We have one staging server and 2 live, load-balanced
servers.
Most web content is in the DB and migrated in a workflow manner from staging
to the public. However, documents and images need to be replicated via the
filesystem.
We've been using repliweb for years. And it works. Usually. But it's
termpemental, and can often go down seemingly randomly. The bigger issue we
have is its rather obtuse interface.
Is anyone familiar/using any other server replication software? Any
recommendations? Any newer products out there?

SmtpClient.UseDefaultCredentials does not work in Authenticated SM
I use SmtpClient to send email in my program, and I set the
UserDefaultCredentials to true to use the logged on user's credentials.
However it doesn't work on authenticated SMTP server. It will throws
exception saying 'System.Net.Mail.SmtpException: The SMTP server requires a
secure connection or the client was not authenticated. The server response
was: 5.7.3 Client was not authenticated'
However if I set UserDefaultCredentials to false and hard-coded my login and
password for SmtpClient.Credentials, it works. It seems as if the
UseDefaultCredentials does not set loggon user's credentials correctly.
Any help would really appreciated.

CLR doesn't do warm start?
Hi,
As this article (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc163655.aspx)
mentions, there is a cold and warm start time for managed apps. I'm running a
few .net 2.0 winforms apps on my desktop (XP) and until last week, I had the
expected cold followed by warm time. Now, my cold and "warm" times are about
identical. I don't know what changed. It could be something else that's
running in memory and being a hog, but I'm wondering if there is some CLR
switch that says "disable warm starts" that I can look at?
Thanks...

\\servername\sharename is unavailable
Lately we get the problem on our server that it cannot reach the backupserver
by \\servename\sharename, but when we use \\IP-adress\sharename it is no
prblem.
When we ping the backupserver we get the right IP-adres back.
After reboot of the server the problem is gone for a while, but returns
everytime.
We use Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition SP2

Property Set procedure with a structure array
Apologies in advance for what is a very simple question, but I just cannot
get my head around it. I have a public class Something with a public
structure T mapped to the local variable m_Test(). Whenever I try to set the
value of the property Test, I get the error "Expression is a value and
therefore cannot be the target of an assignment." Test code is below. Can
anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Public Class Something
Public Structure T
Public a As Integer
Public b As Integer
End Structure
Private m_Test() As T
Private m_CurrentIndex As Integer
Public Property CurrentIndex() As Integer
Get
Return m_CurrentIndex
End Get
Set(ByVal Value As Integer)
m_CurrentIndex = Value
If Value > m_Test.GetLength(0) - 1 Then
ReDim Preserve m_Test(Value)
End If
End Set
End Property
Public Property Test() As T
Get
Return m_Test(m_CurrentIndex)
End Get
Set(ByVal Value As T)
m_Test(m_CurrentIndex).a = Value.a
m_Test(m_CurrentIndex).b = Value.b
End Set
End Property

Environment.GetFolderPath returns wrong path
I have an application that during installation access the My Documents path.
I am using Environment.GetFolderPath( Environment.SpecialFolder.MyDocuments)
+ restOfPath ) to get the path to the file in question. This works fine
most of the time. The only time it fails is when the My Documents is
recirected using group policy. In this case, the method continues to return
a local path instead of the correct network path.
Does anyone know a way around this issue? Tag: is that a new Microsoft website? Tag: 228599
.net windows service using alot of Paged pool
Hi
We have a windows service implemented in C# that will call some legacy VB6
COM objects. This is a memory intensive application that will create alot of
objects but looking at the memory and virtual memory footprint it will remain
under the 70meg level. On the other hand the Paged pool will keep going up
and up. What would be the cause of this? Tag: is that a new Microsoft website? Tag: 228598
Tool To Create Function Map Of C#.NET Project In Visual Studio 200
I've been assigned to an existing project to assist with some customization
requirements, but most of the documententation is in Japanese and very
lacking in useful pictures or diagrams.
What I'd like to do is create a function map which includes a list of which
assemblies/members contain a call to another assembly/member, or reference,
or method, or whatever-they-are-called.
That way, if I see something like SecurityManager.ChangeBilingalMode (sic),
I have some clue as to where that call originated.
Is there something included with VS2005 that does this, or maybe one of the
Office 2007 products? Tag: is that a new Microsoft website? Tag: 228593

DLLs and Embedded Resources
Hi,
I was designing an application which is intended to run in the background,
and I was wondering about how I should load my resources to reduce the memory
footprint. I was thinking of keeping all the embedded resources in a DLL, so
that they only get loaded when needed.
So my question is this: if your application references a library, does the
library get loaded into memory at startup, or only when its used? There
really isn't much point in keeping the resources seperate otherwise, since it
complicates the code slightly.
Thanks for your help. Tag: is that a new Microsoft website? Tag: 228569
Low Refresh Rate
I using a new laptop running Vista and have Nvidia GeForce 7600 graphics
card. I'm trying to connect my TV to this computer using Svideo. It has
worked in the past however I must have changed a setting somewhere? On my
second computer with Xp it all connects right!
So it's all connected but the display on the TV is just rolling lines as
though it is scrambled. On the monitor setting, the refresh rate is stuck on
25Hertz Interlaced.
Is there a way of forcing a higher refresh rate? or is there another
setting I need to change?
I have been seraching for months for an answer to this question. HELP PLEASE! Tag: is that a new Microsoft website? Tag: 228567

Typed datasets and table table adapters components not showing in
Typed datasets and table table adapters components not showing in
Toolbox
Hi,
I have a solution with several projects. One project contains datasets
with table adapters.
When I opened a usercontrol in design mode, it used to have all
datasets and tableadapters in toolbox, under a tab name with the name
of the datasets project
However, I had to upgrate to a new hdd, and did a clean Windows
install, with VS2005, etc
Now, when I open te solution and open a usercontrol in designer, I see
only the other user controls, but no datasets or table adapters as I
used to have before. Sometimes I see a tab with the name of the
datasets project, but on it there is a text telling "There are no
usable controls in this group"
What happend?
I mention, on old HDD I had instaled VS2003 and VS2005, on new one I
have only VS2005 and installed VS2008 express, but then I removed it
(as I thought maybe it caused the issue). I even uninstalled and
reinstalled VS 2005, with no luck.
Can anyone helo me with this?
