I just went through hours of utter frustration trying to install MS Visual studio 2005 (.net). It bombed 4 times during setup, some issue with ".net compact version 1.0." So, what's with all the versions of .Net and all the different failures of these versions? I thought .Net would lead us...

Thanks everyone very much. Since the Capture and Editing apps are seperate, I should be able to enjoy at least some gain. I understand about the sharing of the bus, etc, and also about a single app not necessarily being written to put different threads on different cpus--but as long as the OS...

If I get a dual processor board, and have XP Pro as the OS, can I expect to be able to run 2 apps, each running full out with it's own processor? For example, let's say I have a video capture program and a video editing program. On my current box, a P4 with 1 gig ram, the video capture will...

dhookum, I steer clear of using Autonumber as a PK...I know that's a contentious issue here... However one key reason is that it's much easier visually for a developer to look at the Relationship window and know the 'real' relationship--the actual business process relationship--rather than just...

I'm losing my mind. I have 2 tables--TicketHeader and TicketDetail. Header PK key is: OrdDate OrdNum TktNum Detail PK key is: OrdDate OrdNum TktNum TktLine I'm trying to create one-many as shown: Header Detail OrdDate---OrdDate OrdNum----OrdNum TktNum----TktNum But I get the error: "No...

vmaruv, There were a few different combinations of hacks I used to use to get the thing to work. The main issue I had was similar to yours--it would keep saying it needs to install some newer versions and you'd need to reboot, but then the same message would come back. In these instances it...

...the other known problem file in setup.lst is VB6STKIT.DLL, either make sure you have this on the target or remove it and the other bootstrap files from setup.lst. It's been a while since I've used the P&D wizard, it is really a hastily thrown together piece of garbage, we used Wise on some...

Vmaruv, Sorry, I didn't read all of the other posts...I was repeating what another had posted. Try going into the Setup.lst and remove the mscal.ocx if it's in there, this is a common problem. I have also gone to the extent of removing ALL of the files in the setup.lst list of .dlls, since on...

vmaruv The error you get is likely that a .dll or .ocx that the vb exe references does not exist on the specific machines, but does exist on yours. When you compile an exe, you should use MS's Package & deployment wizard to create a Setup.exe, which loads the required modules on the target...

Thanks everyone for the input, it's generally what I was thinking, but needed some validation. --Troy

I'm trying to get a general idea about the opinions web developers have as far as using php or asp as a development tool. With this being an Asp forum, I imagine I'll get positive response towards asp, but I'm also looking for an honest assesment of what asp's weak points may be, such as...

MOrac, Thank you. I'm noticing a discrepancy, though. I did this all via manual parsing of the outerhtml, since I've got to do some adjustments to the actual data within each table row--ie, re-sequencing row numbers, etc.) The row inserts fine, and displays fine after I set the table's...

I have an html table in an IFrame. The table is filled with data fetched from a sql-server database. I want to insert a row in between two existing rows, say, in the middle of the table. The row is hardcoded, so I don't want to refresh the page which would require a trip to the server. I...

MOrac, Thanks, that did the trick! T

MOrac, Thanks very much. I've got that part down--where I can call my keyboard handler in the parent window from the inner iframe. Now, in the parent window's code--it doesn't seem to recognize event.keycode. How can I get the parent's javascript to know the event.keycode of the...
