Wondering how does one take a User Control Form and insert into a Window Form? I can't seem to figure it out or wrap my head around how a company did it with their SDK.

Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks!

How to make ComboBox not show the text in its textbox as selected (C#)

I created a Form with a ComboBox on it named comboBox1, and if I load text in the ComboBox at program start, it shows the text being selected:

Notice that the text inside the ComboBox shows as selected. I want to text to not show selection when the program starts, like this:

Here is the code I use. I attempt to set Select() to 0 with 0 length, to no avail:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Windows.Forms;

namespace WindowsFormsApp1
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();

            this.comboBox1.Text = "Hi!";
            this.comboBox1.Select(0, 0);
        }
    }
}

Is there not a remove function anymore?
I can only chose delete (deletes item permanently from my drive) or exclude from project (which in turn keeps reference to the item).

I have code I no longer need in this project, but need in other projects, yet there is no "remove .cs file from project" feature?

Hi Team,

We are unable to create a new project from Visual Studio new project creation dialog. We are getting the below message "Please choose a project type, and verify that a matching framework is selected".  

I also found a similar issue in VS2013. Following are the reference links: 

https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/dfc97df7-86ca-4348-ba1b-78305326d003/visual-studio-ultimate-2013-update-4-how-to-create-a-web-forms-project-?forum=visualstudiogeneral

http://www.sysnet.pe.kr/2/0/11003 

Is there the same issue exists in VS2017 enterprise edition 2017? 

Could anyone please provide a solution to this?

SSIS project build using command line devenv.com on build server

Hi.

We are using our own build server connected to Azure DevOps.

On build server I have installed Visual Studio 2017, SSDT.

Build is using command line to build SSIS project, for example : "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Enterprise\Common7\IDE\devenv.com" "C:\work\SSISproject\SSIS.sln" /Build Development

I have activated Visual Studio with my MSDN subscription.

Problem is, that after some period - I need to reactivate again Visual Studio (by updating license), otherwise build will fail with error : "The license for Visual Studio has expired."

This is not big issue, if I would have only 1 build server, but if I have 10 or more, then it is problem.

My question - what is solution to this problem on build server ?

Thanks

Mareks

Hi dear, My name is John From Nigeria, all in search of solution to my upcoming final year project,
Please if any one can help, i have in mind to develop a finger print recognition system as my final year project, using Visual c++. However the problem is this. I really don't have a single idea on this beside  designing the interface, the code aspect is nothing to write home about. I have been using VC++ for a year and seven months now all the projects I have handled are basically from calculator to login forms. In fact, this is the first time am going in to something this challenging.  I sincerely need help, no matter how little the idea , I need something to get started, be it the direction to a site, a pdf or the needed libraries. Just any suggestion or code you deem suitable and usefull. Thanks for your anticipated response.

XamlParseException when loading the Designer in a brand new project

I've searched everywhere for the answer but none of the questions in this website (or StackOverflow) solved it. Everytime I create a new Windows Phone 8.1 project I get the XamlParseException, even when I choose the Blank App project. I will list everything I tried.

  • Reinstall VS 2015
  • Reinstall VS 2015 without the SDK and then download it later with the emulators
  • Enable Developer Mode on Windows
  • Disable Project Code
  • Open the .xaml files with the Automatic Editor Selector and XAML Designer
  • Enable XAML Designer in the Options, of course
  • Update Windows 10 (note: I couldn't upgrade to 1809, I'm stuck with 1803)
  • Enable Hypervisor on the BIOS
  • Reboot computer
  • Adding the 'ThemeResources.xaml' manually on the project
  • Build, Rebuild and Clean the solution
  • Using different .NET Framework versions 

Here is my App.xaml code:

<Application
    x:Class="App2.App"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
    xmlns:local="using:App2"></Application>

Here is the MainPage.xaml code:

<Page
    x:Class="App2.MainPage"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"

Managing VS2017 Community Solution Explorer TreeNodes

Is there a way to 'merge' files in Solution Explorer so that I could show a text file under the corresponding .vb file (such as how SE used to expand to include the .Designer.vb as a child node?)

The reason I ask is because I am planning to publish a component library and would like to 'attach' a ReadMe.txt file and any additional related external files that I might code as nodes under each respective .vb file. This would keep all parts of the whole under individual parent nodes and clean up the SE GUI. Perhaps this could be accomplished via XML somewhere?

I am currently using VS2017 Community Version 15.9.4.

(As an aside: is there a switch that can be set somewhere that would cause the Solution Explorer to show the .Designer.vb node expansion as it used to display?)

Thank you!

2) Will the source code of VS2015 documentation’s tool become opensource, in such a way that we as a community can keep upgrading it?

Configurations get confused when adding a new configuration

Hi Everyone,

I am new to this forum, but have been using Visual Studio express since 2008. I am managing a large number of projects, but now have come up against a problem. I had to add new solution configurations to all my projects, but one of them when I add a new solution configuration the existing project configurations become confused and some appear to have gone missing when viewing them in the configuration manager. Some solution configurations end up connected to the incorrect project configuration. If I remove the new configuration that I have added (both both the solution and the project), the configurations are back to normal again.

This is happening to only one of my solutions. I have successfully modified all my other solutions/projects.

Has anyone come across this before and remembers how that was resolved?

Forgot to say, I am currently using Visual Studio 2015.

Many thanks in advance,

Michael

What is wrong with my Interop?

Hi,

I am building an interop from C++ DLL for the use from a c# solution as reference library.

I am using visual studio 2017.

The solution uses .Net framewrok 4.5.2.

I currently have a working c++ dll with a certain file version and a matching interop I created using tlbimp.exe with no version and this works OK for me.

The thing is - I now want to update the c++ DLL file version and create a new interop but once I do that (whether the Interop is being generated with file version and whether it isn't ) the solution compiles ok using the new interop but when I run the application It cannot reach it.
