    - Microsoft XP Pro 64 Bit..Title Bar is gone.. How to fix without re Microsoft XP Pro 64 Bit Title Bar is missing. I have no Minimize, Maximize and close option. On a Maximized page for Internet Explorer, the Title Bar is black above the: website, locked site, refresh icon. On a Maximized page for a Microsoft Word Document, the Title Bar is black above the: File, Edit, View... and I can not minimize or maximize on any window I open including my Microsoft Outlook e-mail. On a Minimized page I see the Title Bar just fine but have to use "Alt, Space-bar" in order to get the minimize, maximize, close option. I am trying to figure out if there is a way to fix this without having to do a system restore to a date prior to February 10, 2008 when my son somehow messed up the Title Bar on all applications I run. This problem is through out my system on anybody's page, we all have our own log in pages with our own desktop and such. The problem occurred on my sonsâ?? page and when I opened mine, my page was messed up as well. The Start Menu Tool Bar was missing I had to bring it up from way down on the bottom of the page. It took a while but I got it back. Then I went to use a Word Doc. and that's when I noticed the "Title Bar" Missing and no options to: Minimize, Maximize or close my Word Pages. My Internet Explorer has the same problem as well as any other application I try to run. Your quick reply is greatly appreciated!!

Now, please consider this logically ---------------- the body needs "free fat" or "loose fat" to build up the brain cells that are damaged. Normally, the internal organs are damaged. So Dr Bhavasar's treatment is good. What is amazing about Dr Bhavasar is that I know him for 6 years and he has NEVER NEVER asked me for money. His treatment is consistent and based on Rig Vedic and Atharva Vedic and Ayurvedic knowledge. If you consult him, u can understand enough to let everybody go thru recharging the body with urine therapy WITHOUT PAIN. He has told me once to do the butter-sugar-water or ghee-sugar-water treatment BEFORE the urine-drinking in the morning. When I was in pain, he told me to STOP the urine drinking (he is against it) and eat butter-sugar-water in the morning on an empty stomach (first thing) and then do ghee-sugar-water treatment 6 times a day and then butter-sugar-water treatment in the night. It worked to remove the depression/pain. Now, I request u to consult him for your patients (he can give ACCURATE advice over the phone), learn some things from him and help your patients using his space-time-motion treatment too.

    - DataGridView Column Headers from First Row of Excel DataTable I'm sure this is something ridiculously simple or just not possible without custom coding: How do I tell a DataGridView NOT to create column headers from the first row of a data table using an Excel datasource? All I want to do is have the first row of data from the Excel worksheet be the first row of data in the DataGridView and NOT be the column headers. It would seem to be something simple to ask, but for the life of me, I cannot find out how to do it. Even in Excel itself, it has a "first row contains column headers" when importing data. Surely the DataGridView should let me turn off that kind of feature? Thanks in advance. Tag: POST to URL Tag: 115898

    - Concurrency error deleting record with vs 2008 generated code Hi I have a very simple db app that was created by dragging a couple of fields onto a windows form. No additional code was added. The problem is that app gives a concurrency error while deleting a record even though no other user has access to the app. Steps to create problem 1. Create an access table Clients with only two fields; ID Auto number and Company: Text(50). 2. Make a connection to the access db in vs2008 and add the data source to the connection. 3. From data source, drag the fields ID and Company onto a windows form. This will create the binding source, binding navigator etc. 4. Click on new (+) icon on toolbar to create a new record. 5. Type XYZ in Company text field and click on Save (disk) icon on toolbar to save the record. 6. Click on Delete (x) icon to delete the record and then Save icon on toolbar to save the record deletion. At this point the error is generated with the stack trace given at the end below. What is the problem and how can I fix it?

    - Build custom save dialog under VB.net 2005 I'm trying to build a custom Save Dialog, using VB.net 2005. The reason I cannot use the regular save dialog, is the "path" that it needs to save to isn't actually in the file system, but rather is a system accessible by calls to an already-existing assembly and web server. Getting the data from the assembly and web server I can handle. However, I'm having difficulty with creating the custom Save Dialog. Part of the thing (and maybe part of the problem) is that I decided to start by creating a "Browser Form" type of form, and I figured I'd modify it from there. I especially like having a left pane for the "treeview" of the folder structure, and the right pane for the "listview" of the files/folders in the selected item on the tree. I also like the built-in functionality (that comes with that "browser form" object) that allows me to resize the treeview or hide it altogether. Here's the problem: in order to be a "save" dialog, I also need a text box at the bottom for the destination filename. I also need a drop-down for the file-type (for the browser, to filter the contents in the listview). It'd be nice to also have a "description" textbox too. Here's the problem: with the "browser form", it has a status bar at the bottom (which I really don't even need), but even if I remove it, I cannot resize the space to accommodate two text boxes and a combo box. Any ideas? Part of the idea is I was hoping to avoid coding it from scratch if possible (and if I do that, I'd probably lose the ability to resize the treeview side) Thanks!

    - Reformed access user needs advise for future Hi Many a times I have been told off here for asking question on a backend other than sql sever. So I have finally seen the light and have decided to take up my next project with sql server backend (vb.net front). So here is my question; What are the recommended db development guidelines to achieve both a) a good user experience of being able to scroll to any record using record navigation buttons and b) the db efficiency requirement of not loading too many records in dataset at one time. If there is such a strategy to which many agree then there should be a sample code app somewhere. It would help me enormously to see the guts of an actual well written db app - no matter how trivial as long as it covers the necessary detail - instead of advise like don't do this or that without the coding specifics. So here is a chance for the worthy to lead a recent convert (albeit reluctant due to self deficiency on sql server side). Thanks Regards Tag: POST to URL Tag: 115839

    - Control Size? Cache Maybe? Greetings all. I'm having a very strange (not to mention frustrating) problem. I'm developing a Windows Forms C# application in VS 2008. On the bottom of the form, I have four controls. Originally they were all set to one size - 206, 74. I'm trying to change them all to be 180, 60. I've used the various toolbar buttons (make all same width, make all same size, etc.) to no avail. Although the controls will appear to be the same size in the designer, when I debug the program, three of the four controls will be the new size, but the last one reverts to the old size. I've saved the project with all the controls appearing to be the same size in the designer, closed VS 2008, reboot my machine...and when I reload the solution, the fourth control is stuck at the old size. I've even gone so far as to modify the Form1.designer.cs file outside of the development environment with the solution closed to set the new size manually, however, upon reloading the solution, again, it's the old size. Is form information cached anywhere? Is there something obvious that I'm missing? This seems like such a simple problem to overcome, yet I'm about to go postal. Thanks in advance for any and all information you can provide! Tag: POST to URL Tag: 115829

I need the ability to display different prompt characters for certain character positions. How can I do this? Also, due to the nature of the text being inputted, I suspect that I will need to use a regex to validate this properly. So I'm assuming because of these two limitations, that the MaskedTextBox isn't the way to go. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can go about this?

    - How to set/find/compute the perfect size of a form? Hi group, I have a problem with setting the size of a form. Setting some (hard coded) size in pixels (width/height) works of course. The question I always had is: How can I determine the perfect size for my form? With "perfect size" I mean the width and height a form needs to have to perfectly fit all the components (buttons, labels, text fields etc) with respect to the margins, paddings and layout constraints WITHOUT being too big or too small. Even if start counting the pixels for each component it is a waste of time because if a different system font a system theme or screen resolution is used, the size (in pixels) changes. In Java/AWT, there is function pack() which does exactly this. Is there an equivalent in C#/.NET/Winforms? It is also important that this function can be called during runtime. Some of my forms have a dynamic content based on user selections. Thus, the "perfect size" needs to be recomputed now and than... Thanks for any ideas! Regards, Paul Tag: POST to URL Tag: 115817

Usage: NetMassDownloader [-file <file>] [-directory <directory] [-output <directory>] [-vsver <version>] [-force] [-nologo] [-verbose] [-?] -file - Download an individual file's PDB and source code. You can specify multiple file parameters. (Short -f). -directory - Download all the found PDB and source code for all files in the specified directory. You can specify multiple directory parameters (Short -d). -output - The output directory for PDB and source files. The default directory is the cache directory set in Visual Studio 2008. By using the cache directory, you'll have the PDB and source files available to Visual Studio 2008. However, to use the .NET Reference Source Code with VS 2005, use the - output switch and in the Options dialog, Debugging, Symbols property page, add the specified output directory to the "Symbol file (.pdb) locations." Also, add the directory to the Solution Properties, Common Properties, Debug Source Files, Directories containing source code location. The Visual Studio 2005 debugger will automatically load the source code. (Short -o) -vsver - The Visual Studio version number to use for finding the cache directory. The default is Visual Studio 2008, but if you want to use the cache directory for Visual Studio 2005, you would pass '-vsver 8.0' (without quotes) (Short -vs) -force - If specified, forces the downloading the PDB files into the symbol server. When downloading to a symbol server if the PDB exists, it's not downloaded. Using the -output switch will always download and process the PDB. (Short -fo) -nologo - Don't show the logo information. (Short -n) -verbose - Do verbose output. May be worth turning on as the downloading source code can take a long time. (Short -v) -? - This help message. The only required arguments are -file or -directory, both of which can be specified as many times as you'd like. When you specify a directory, only the .DLL and .EXE files from that directory will be processed. If you wanted to download all the source code from binaries in the .NET 2.0 32-bit and 64-bit directories, the command line you'd pass is: -d C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727 -d C:\Windows \Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727. The main purpose of Net Mass Downloader is to populate the source code download cache for debugging, the default download location is the cache you specified to Visual Studio 2008. The -vsver switch to account for future Visual Studio versions so Mass Downloader could work with future CTPs and versions. While it's great to see the .NET Reference Source Code in Visual Studio 2008, there are a lot of developers out there who can't upgrade yet, but would love to be able to debug into the .NET Reference Source Code. If you specify the -output parameter, the PDB and .NET Reference Source Code will be written to the specified directory. In Visual Studio 2005, place that directory in the Options dialog, Debugging, Symbols property page. In the "Symbol file (.pdb) locations" list box as the first item. Also in the Options dialog, Debugging, General property page, uncheck "Require source files to exactly match the original version." Finally, in each Visual Studio 2005 project go into the solution property pages, Common Properties, Debugging Source Files, and in the "Directories containing source code" add the output directory to the top of the list. That's enough for Visual Studio 2005 to debug into the .NET Reference Source Code. When you first run Net Mass Downloader, you will be prompted with the current EULA for accessing the source code. If you don't agree with the Microsoft EULA, clicking the Decline button will not download the source code. Tag: POST to URL Tag: 115813

    - EventBroker in Composite Application Block - Generic way to Raise / Hi This must be quite a common question with CAB's Event Broker - is there any way to Raise Events dynamically at runtime ? We would like to remove the hard coding from our "Event Dispatching" pump along the lines of the following pseudo code: foreach (message in queue) { // e.g. Message.Topic might be "topic://SomeTopic" EventBroker.FireEvent(message.Topic, new [Data]EventArgs<MessageClass>(message)); } The message is a standard format for all "Events" (We might need to determine whether there are any subscribers to the "SomeTopic" event - EventBroker again might be able to assist here. And then in the respective modules, the EventSubscriptions remain "as they are" (i.e. Design Time) [EventSubscription("topic://SomeTopic")] public void ActionSomeTopic(object sender, [Data]EventArgs<MessageClass> e) What we want to avoid is having to manually add new publications to the dispatcher, i.e. NOT the current : [EventPublication(EventTopicNames.SomeTopic1)] public event EventHandler<EventArgs<MessageClass>> SomeTopic1Event; [EventPublication(EventTopicNames.SomeTopic2)] public event EventHandler<EventArgs<MessageClass>> SomeTopic2Event; ... [EventPublication(EventTopicNames.SomeTopicN)] public event EventHandler<EventArgs<MessageClass>> SomeTopic3Event; void Dispatcher() { foreach (message in queue) { switch (message.Topic) { case "SomeTopic1": if (SomeTopic1Event != null) { SomeTopic1Event(this, new EventArgs<MessageClass>(message)) } break; case "SomeTopic2": if (SomeTopic2Event != null) { SomeTopic2Event(this, new EventArgs<MessageClass>(message)) } break; etc } } A dynamic event raising mechanism would be far more elegant Thanks in Advance!

    - Synchronize settings button isn't working The MSDN documentation for Synchronize (Framework 3.5 - http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/a65txexh.aspx) states: ------------------------ The values of any user-scoped settings that the user changes at run time (for example, the position of a form) are stored in a user.config file. Notice that the default values are still saved in app.config. If you have changed any user-scoped settings during run time, for example in testing the application, and want to reset these settings to their default values, click the Synchronize button. ------------------------ * Create a new windows application 'WindowsApplication1' * Open My Project and go to the settings tab * Change the default Setting name to MyString * Change its type to String * Add the traditional Hello World string in the Value column (The Scope remains set to User) * Open Form1 in design view and drag a label 'Label1' onto it from the toolbox * Double-click on the design surface to automatically insert Form1_Load handler in the code view * Inside Form1_Load handler add these lines: My.Settings.myString = "GoodBye Cruel World" Label1.Text = My.Settings.myString * Run this and it works, displaying "GoodBye Cruel World" in Label1.Text. * Exit from the application and Click the Synchronize button Result: The error ... No user.config files were found in any of the following locations: [OK] ... is displayed. The Value column continues to hold Hello World. To confirm that a local User.config file HAS been created and will be used, follow these steps: * Comment out the first line of code above: My.Settings.myString = "GoodBye Cruel World" * Run the application again. Result: "GoodBye Cruel World" continues to be displayed in Label1.Text There is some sort of configuration error on my machine or else a bug in the IDE. This behavior has been observed on my computer in Visual Studio 2005 Standard and VB.NET 2008 Express Edition. In fact, if the User.Config is created in one, it will be used in the other. (Running Vista Business OS) Reference Also: "Synchronize settings button isn't working" PostID=511678 user "David Paterson" had the same problem user "madangelo" had the same problem The question was never answered in that post. Numerous non-Microsoft forum references of the same problem can be found. Tag: POST to URL Tag: 115804

    - WinForms and Word Application Hi all, Iâ??m a C++ developer and a very beginner in both C# (.Net) and Word Programming. What my company wants next is something like this: from different texts to build a Word 2007 document and then open this in the real Word 2007 application to give the user the possibility to change the document as usual with all possibilities (MenÃ¼s, Panels, etc.). Well my problem is that the Word 2007 must be embedded in our C# - Application (WinForms). Knows somebody a solution to do this: embed the Word 2007 application in WinForms or if better maybe in WPF? For any idea thank you in advance. Best Regards, Emil Tag: POST to URL Tag: 115797

Hi,
I am working on a kind of a "stand alone" m\c where in i have to connect
using VPN to get into our company's network.
I have a Windows application net 2.0 on my local machine (WinXP) and was
trying to use HttpWebRequest/HttpWebResponse object to do POST to url.

However, i am always getting "// (407) Proxy Authentication Required " or
sometimes "bad gateway" errors.

I have tried to create a WebProxy as well (though my IE is not using any
proxy to connect to internet) by providing the VPN's IP. It did not work.
Can someone please let me know what can I do the POST ??

Thanks in advance, greetings, regards, any help very grateful .
