I am configuring VS2008 on a new machine. Everything looks good except for the Prerequisites list. On my other machine, I have "SQL Server Compact 3.5 SP1" listed, which is what I want to set my build to. However, on my new machine, I don't have this, and clicking the "Check Microsoft Update..." link does not present this as an option. how I might manually get this added to the list?

View 2 RepliesI am trying to create a simple Word doc that when the user presses the button it takes the information in the boxes and tosses it into a template style paragraph. But my issue is that I have two combo list boxes as seen in the picture. I want to have two values in the drop down list as seen in the labels next to them but for the life of me I can't figure out how to do this in Word 2007. In Visual Studio this is much easier but I am work and need to snap this out for the folks at work. Is there an option that I can choose in the properties where I type in the values for each drop down or do I have to add them in at run time?

I have created a windows project that has one form which is like a wizard. Now what this wizard does is, it runs an msi file which is my main project setup as well as running the sql server 2005 express setup file. The project embeds sql express in it so I can pass parameters such as sa password etc. That's the reason I've done it this way. Now I need it to be so that when The user clicks my .exe file it detects if the .Net framework 3.5 is installed, and if not it installs it. Is it possible to set prerquisites for my .exe file. I don't want to put all this in a setup project because sql express doesn't support msi chaining.

I want to click a button and have an SSIS package execute.I looked around on the Internet and found examples, but they do not seem to work for me.I try to add a reference, Microsoft.SqlServer.ManagedDTS.dll, as a few sites advise, but it is not listed when I go to PROJECT>ADD REFERENCE.
I also type:
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime but all I get is a squiggly green line, which when hovered over states "Namespace or type specified in the Imports 'Microsoft.SqlServer .Dts.Runtime' doesn't contain any public member or cannot be found."

I'm learning how to add items from a list box to a combo box. I'm trying to follow what's going on in the function loop and comparing a boolean and selected index. I can see that it's comparing the item chosen to each item already in the combo box to make sure that it's not already there. If function finds that it's not in the list it sends back that it is true that the item is not in the list.
It then continues to the statement that adds item to the list. The code for the double click event is working fine and items are getting added to combo box. However, the code for the add button isn't functional. I'm not seeing why it doesn't work? I coded out the original code, and replaced with something I thought might work but it still isn't functional. [Code]

View 1 RepliesI have a program where i let the user dynamically add DataGridViews to the interface, those are also added to a list for easy management. All of the DataGridViews have their own datasources. I am using a Databinding source to get different DataGridViewTextBoxColumns to add.
The problem is the following: When the user adds the first table the following code runs:
dataGridList(dataGridList.Count -1).Clear()
dataGridList(dataGridList.Count -1).Add(NameDataGridViewTextBoxColumn)
No problem there and the right data is displayed, but when the user adds the second table i get an exception thrown:
"Provided column already belongs to the datagrid view"
I think this is strange since i access different DataGridView's right?
The point of all of this is to be able to view different columns in all the DataGridViews depending on the users choices.
I am trying to add things from a text box to a list box. I am running vb.net on visual studio 2005. At the moment, i have a list box, a text box and two buttons one for adding what is typed into the text box and one for deleting what ever is selected in the list box. i understand that for the adding from the text box to the list box i use the button1_click and need to define the entry as a variable but how do i move it accross to the list box? and also how would i delete the items in the list? the code is as follows: cmdAddZp_click is the add button, Zp is the text in the text box called txtnewZp and the list box is lstZp.
Public Class Form1
Private Sub cmdAddZp_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdAddZp.Click
Dim Zp As Integer = txtnewZp.Text

I have some code that adds items to a List(of Object).
Here's my original code
Dim BeaconStoryList as New List(Of My.StoryType)
Dim BeaconStory as New My.StoryType
Dim NewStories() as New Foriegn.StoryType = GetStories
[Code]....
But as soon as the code assigned "Chicken" to BeaconStory.Title, then BeaconStoryList(0).Title would also change to "Chicken".
With my second version of the code this did not happen.
It's as though it was placing pointers into the elements of the array rather than values. If that is the case, however, then why does my second version of the code work - I'm still passing in the same thing - aren't I?
I'm using the free version on Visual Basic 2008 (through school).The assignment is to populate a list box from user input text. The textbook only talks about populating a list of known items.ex animalListBox.Items.Add("dog") Which works just fine, however, we don't know what the user will input.
So, how should I be thinking about this?
I'm still learning VB.net and there is a bit of code I have added which is an array and I want to add a list of items to the array. If that makes sense. I have 6 classes two have arrays.
Here is the code from one of the classes
Public Function getItems() As Array
Return _LevelItems
End Function
How would I add the item list to this? Where do I put it? Like underneath it or in the items class? That code is in the Level class.
I am not sure what I'm doing wrong, but I need some guidance from people smarter than me...
View 1 RepliesOk so I have an array and wish to add the variables of the array to separate lines of the list box. I came across this which in some ways worked but also didn't. The second thing mentioned on the page was to us:
ListBox1.DataSource = Form2.Title This works the first time you run it but if you try to run it again nothing happens. So using the above or something else how can I get it to update the list box? Another thing I tried was to use the DataSource method but instead to clear the list box first, but that turned up an error
If I'm trying to output to a listbox, what is the easiest way I can enter a string and then a variable on the same line? I'm trying to use listbox1.Items.Add(...). Obviously outputting a string is no problem and outputting a variable is no problem, but I want to add a string and then a variable after the string. For instance:
name = "Joe Smith"
listbox1.Items.Add("Name: ", name) [or something like this]
[Output] Name: Joe Smith
I wan't to combine two lists of string, both of them have 200000+ items in them. Here's the code I'm using to combine them:
For Each item in list2
list1.add(item)
Next
