Hi All I guess this query is network related... I'm stuck for ideas on how to find out if a user (or machine) is a member of a domain group. I've seen code to determine roles, but this is not what I want. Any help appreciated.

Hi I need to implement network failure tolerant messaging between two applications that each talk to each other. (Two way dialogue.) It appears that MSMQ works well, but fails if the queue resides on the PC that loses its network connection. Anyone else found this? I guess if that�s the way it works then I just have to follow the rules, but I had hoped to have writes to a local queue and a read from a remote queue at each end. In testing this is clearly faster, although not resilient. Any thoughts anyone? Thanks

Hi All I want to mimic the drag and drop action where an image of the dragged object is shown with the drag cursor as is done on Windows Explorer. The problem I now have is getting an image of the object being dragged. I can get it of it is fully on screen, but if half of it is off the screen then I can only drag the visible part. Any thought or suggestions please... Thanks

Digging around a little more I found the comment that Sendmessage deals with "objects" whereas the framework expects "strings". I guess this is the problem. I'm back to the slower but more orthodox add function. Thanks for your help.

Thanks I did try that in an earlier attempt but it gave the same results. The error I get is "Specified arguement was out of range of valid values. Parameter name '48' is not a valid value for 'index'.

Hi there I guess I'm trying to be too clever, but I wonder if someone can shed some light on what is happening. I'm loading a combobox with a number of thousands of items. To speed the process up I've tried to use: SendMessage(ComboBox1.Handle, CB_ADDSTRING, -1, "Some Text") However things don't appear well. The list gets populated, but when clicking on an item in the list I get a subscript error. The dropdown box also only appears to be one line rather than 8. I can go back to useing the combobox.add method, but I'm curious as to what is going on. Any thoughts anyone. Thanks.

Hi there I have an icon displayed on a toolbar representing the selected ink colour. However, I want to change the colour of the pen displayed to reflect the currently chosen colour. How can I do this. I know I could edit an Icon to match each colour, but this seems like over kill. I just want to swap the existing colour with one of my choice. Can I do this? Thanks

I'm using VS 2003 Enterprise Architect. Thanks

This seems a common problem. Does no one have a answer? Is it a MS installer bug?

Hi All I have an icon file with a number of icons of varying sizes. How do I extract an icon of the size I require? I'm after the 32x32 image if that is of any consequence. Thanks

Hi All I want to query a table (in Access) to see if a field exists. I can do this by reading a record into a datatable then checking each column in the columns collection for the column name. This works, and the overhead is not great, I just wondered if there was a better way of doing it. Thanks

Hi Lanc1988 I have a thread running on this very subject. See "Multiple Entries In Add and Remove Software List". It might help to keep the conversation in one place.

Yes, both are set to true.

Thanks. I have changed the Author and Manufacturer, but these now remain unchanged. As the version changes so does the product code. Thanks

Hi All I'm able to deply my app over the top of a previous version, but i've recently noticed that I'm leaving multiple entries in the add and remove software list. Can any one suggest what I'm doing wrong? Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks
