  - Visual Studio Tools for Office Adding charts in Word without Excel popping up
    Hi,
    
    What is the best way to programatically add a chart to word, without userinput. Im trying to write a function in Visual Studio that pulls some data and creates charts from it in word. I managed to add a chart but whenever i do, it opens up excel for specifying the series data, wich i dont want. I simply want to fill the data and formatting options trough code without the user ever noticing it. Should i create an instance of excel and fill/format my chart in there and when im done, copy it to word
    
    Regards, Jape.
    
    Dim Ishape As Word.InlineShape
    
    Dim ImpRange As Word.Range = Globals.ThisAddIn.Application.Selection.Range
    
    Ishape = Globals.ThisAddIn.Application.ActiveDocument.InlineShapes.AddChart(Microsoft.Office.Core.XlChartType.xlBarStacked, impRange)

  - Developer Documentation and Help System Documenting the Documenter
    I notice that Sandcastle ships without any documentation. I followed the links that promised to answer frequently-asked questions and questions and hints and tips. The questions were obviously being asked by people who had been using Sandcastle and had some kind of detailed question about some operational point or another. How did they find out how to start using it enough to ask a question about features
    
    But I can't even get started. There are three executables in the download: BuildAssembler, MRefBuilder, and XslTransform. When I run MRefBuilder on my assembly, all I get is an XML file. But if that's all I want, I can get an XML file from Visual Studio by throwing the /doc switch.
    
    When I run BuildAssembler, I get a message: "Error: The specified configuration file could not be loaded. The error message is: "Could not find file 'C:\Program Files\Sandcastle\ProductionTools\BuildAssembler.exe.config'." Well, that does not help me run the program because I don't have a configuration file, I don't know how to make a configuration file, and no configuration file was installed with SandCastle.
    
    XslTransform apparently wants an XML file and an XSL transform file. Is that supposed to be the output of MRefBuilder and some as yet unidentified transform file One does not know because nobody thinks it necessary to explain. Do I have to write my own XSL transform file Probably not.
    
    But the point is: none of the questions in the FAQ ask how to run the program, and none of the links on the installation page point to anything but broken wikis and FAQs for more advanced users. How does one get started

  - Visual Studio Tools for Office Excel Crash
    Hi,
    
    I had built a complete solution using VSTO 2005 and Excel 2003.
    
    I had it working for last 2 weeks.
    
    Today, when i was doing Excel crashed and just cannot get my code behind to work since then.
    
    I am not able to click any buttons, or click the drop down of combo box nor debug the application.
    
    Always the excel shows up, but none of my code-behind is working.
    
    I have installed VSTO 2005 and Office 2003 since then on my machine. Still no luck.
    
    I tried a simple project with Word, it works.
    
    Even a simple excel project with a message box behind a button won't work.
    
    How to verify if my installation is good
    
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    
    Thanks.

    I had VS .NET 2003 Professional installed on my machine (XP professional) and also Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition. Both work and i was able to create projects but after a few days both stopped working.
    
    I alway get 'MWDExpress Enviromenment is busy' when i try to access a project or try to create a new one in Web developer. I uninstalled Web Developer and re-installed it but it still didnt work. Always getting the same message.
    
    So I tried to uninstall VS .NET 2003 but unable to do so. I tried doing manually as well but it hangs (just freezes) and does not proceed any further. what should I do any ideas How can I uninstall VS .NET 2003 and then re-install it At the moment I can't do anything (Uninstall/reinstall/repair). Either the setup is faling or hanging up (Non responsive). I tried From Add/Remove, then from the CD and also manual but nothing worked.

  - Visual Studio Report Controls FoxPro guy needs some guidance with ReportViewer, a DataSet and ASP.NET 2.0
    Hello. Thanks for taking the time to read my question, hopefully you can answer it.
    
    I'm still pretty green to all of this, so forgive me if I'm asking simple questions.
    
    I have a DataSet that contains a single table with some fields I'd like to display. I have this programmatically in the code behind of an ASP.NET webpage. (It came from a VFPOLEDB View)
    
    I would like to display this in the ReportViewer somehow. I'm trying to figure out the right/best way to do this, and could really use some expert guidance on how to get it done. It seems fairly simple what I want to do, but everytime I try it, it ends in a cumbersome mess. Rather than burden this thread with how I haven't gotten it to work right, I was hoping someone could tell me what to read, where to look, or show me a good example of how to get it done. It would be much appreciated.
    
    Thank You

  - Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) XAML IntelliSense Issue with VS 2005
    Hello,
    
    I have installed everything I can find on .Net 3 including the extensions. I am currently having issues with the XAML Intellisense not working. Not only will it not pick up my own project references eg xmlns:custom="clr-namespace:SDKSample;assembly=SDKSampleLibrary"
    
    <custom: does not work. But also when I try to tap into TextBox.Text for the <Binding> It does not recognise it.
    
    Have I missed something to install
    
    Thanks,

  - Visual Studio WPF Designer Custom controls in Cider?
    Does Orcas currently support custom controls (user-built classes deriving from Control) If so, I'll try stripping my development project down to basics to see if I can get my custom controls working in orcas again. The custom controls I do have are fairly complicated right now. But it would be worth it for me if I can get them working.
    
    Most of the xaml pages I'm using custom controls in don't seem to recognize the xmlns references I'm using.
    
    Is there a way to specify xmlns references in a way that Orcas likes Will external/signed assemblies help

I'm new to xaml and wpf and am wanting to learn how to drag and drop rectangles. I've found a number of samples all in c# but I havent been able to convert them to vb. One sample was by Lester Lobo at http://blogs.msdn.com/llobo/archive/2006/12/08/drag-drop-library.aspx and the other was by Josh Smith at http://www.codeproject.com/WPF/DraggingElementsInCanvas.asp. Can anyone recomend a good tutorial in vb

Dear moondaddy,

Try this link

http://blogs.msdn.com/unnir/archive/2006/01/31/521065.aspx

Even though not in vb, you should be able to get an idea on drag drop operations. Let me know if you have any problems translating the code to vb.

HTH,

  - Visual Studio Extensibility Cross project code generation
    Hi,
    
    I'm very new to actually working with DSL and software factories, so the questions can seem a bit dumb.
    
    Here it goes:
    - If I create a new DSL and an acommpanying custom tool, I can generate code by walking over the diagram. Is there a way that the generated code can be split accross existing projects in a Visual Studio 2005 solution
    - Would referencing artefacts that belong to other projects in a diagram (e.g. a diagram in a data access layer project has a reference to a business component in another project) be a good and allowable practice
    That's it for now
    
    Any help or feedback is highly appreciated.

  - Crystal Reports for Visual Studio Crystal repots chart problem [URGENT]
    Hello everybody,
    
    I have questions in database table and possible answer choices for each question. What I need to do is show a chart for each question and show the answers of the questions graphically. I have written an stored procedure that selects questions and their answers, and in the report I have grouped the questions. For showing multiple charts, I need to place the chart in the detail section but it doesn't allow me to place the chart in detail section. What is the way in the crystal report to generate charts based on the data.
    
    Thanks.

  - Visual Studio Guidance Automation Toolkit Installing Visual Studio 2005 Service Pack 1 (XP edition) breaks GAT
    I've just installed Visual Studio 2005 Service Pack 1 (XP edition) and now when I try to register or unregister a GAT package (for example ASMX Guidance Package) I get the following error:
    
    System.TypeLoadException: EnvDTE.Project, EnvDTE ---> System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Couldn't find assembly EnvDTE.
    
    I guess because the service pack has installed a new version of EnvDTE.
    
    Any advice anyone

  - Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) Media Element Formats and Player
    My question relates to the video format and media player in WPF. In previous frameworks, while mostly used, Direct3D was used to play videos in specific formats such as AVI or WMV. While this may work in the new framework, it is under my impression that the WPF Media element only works with WMV. Plus, in order to play the media element itself the user must have windows media player installed in order to play (version 10 or 11). When I have used the Media element it only sometimes works while loading wmv files without any other codecs necessary. Is this an issue with WPF in general, or am I have I missed something here

  - Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) Issue with frame resizing!!!
    Good morning,
    
    I'm trying to navigate throw some custom pages in my wpf application. I was checked that "AppModel/FragmentNavigationSample" in wpf samples works perfectly opening a page in a frame embedded in the main window of the application.
    
    I copy the main window and the page to a new project created with "microsoft expressions" but, when I open the frame, the main window is resized to the content size. I think that the only difference is in the project file.
    
    Can anyone tell me what to do to resolve this little problem

    Hi
    
    Few days ago i uploaded some files in VSS which were supposed to be uploaded earlier, so i just changed back my system time and date to my desired date and then uploaded the file in VSS,the date and time along side that file is fine(means its the same date on which i uploaded the files after changing the dates of my pc),but when i check the history of the file it shows the actual date of file uploaded i mean it doesnt show the same date and time that was supposed to...why is it so and is there any seperate date and time mechanism of VSS or VSS takes the systems date and time

  - Visual Studio Setup and Installation Visual studio SP1 crashes the whole systemThe same problem when installation fails due to insuficient disk space - all .net apps does not work. The whole service pack is *** - Why Microsoft could not make a better installer - it gives all kinds of errors, you wait 2 hours to make the instalation and if something goes wrong you have to reinstall the whole system. The Visual Studio itself installs for less time. Now I have to reinstall the whole system because I don't have the time to wait for solution. I think there should be service pack for the servoce pack :)

  - Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) Another question about localizationHi,
    
    Is there a way to change culture on the fly so that all the UI elements would be updated accordingly I tried modifying Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture and Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture, but it does not have any effect once the UI is displayed (as opposed to including this code in the application constructor).
    
    And another question, does WPF change the flow direction automatically according to the set culture or should I set it manually for each Window/Page I tried setting the current culture to arabic, but that didn't effect the flow direction. Are there more settings to tweak
    
    Many thanks in advance.
