Error message "VB.NET"


you try to use Data Source Configuration Wizard to create a connection to Access or a SQL data source. When the wizard reaches the Choose Database objects page, you may receive one of the following error messages.

"Could not load type  'Microsoft.VisualStudio.DataDesign.SyncDesigner.SyncFacade.SyncManager'  from assembly Microsoft.VisualStudio.DataDesign.SyncDesigner.DslPackage,  Version = 9.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKey Token=b03f5f7f11d50a3a"

sol:
The error message is caused due to an incomplete installation of Service Pack 1 for Visual Studio 2008 which could result in a mismatch between the file versions of Microsoft.VSDesigner.dll and Microsoft.VisualStudio.DataDesign.SyncDesigner.DslPackage.dll. The former is updated to Service Pack 1 version and the latter will have the RTM version. This problem is more likely to happen in environments wherein you install different edition of Visual Studio side by side and you upgrade one edition and not the other. For example, you have an installation of Visual Studio Express release version and Visual Studio Team Suite release edition installed side by side and then you only upgrade the express edition to Service Pack 1 but leave the Team edition at RTM level, you will get the first error discussed in the symptoms section

*To resolve the first error message, install Service Pack 1 for all the Visual Studio 2008 editions on the affected system

World‘s first smartphone for the blind, made in India


The world's first smartphone for blind people is here. Soon, they will be able to read SMSes and emails on this phone, which converts all text into Braille patterns. 

"We have created the world's first Braille smartphone," says its innovator, Sumit Dagar, whose company is being incubated at the Centre for Innovation Incubation and Entrepreneurship, located in IIM Ahmedabad campus. "This product is based on an innovative 'touch screen' which is capable of elevating and depressing the contents it receives to transform them into 'touchable' patterns," he says. 

Dagar, who is a post-graduate from the National Institute of Design (NID), says he was motivated to develop the device when he realised that so far, technology was only serving the mainstream and ignoring the marginalised. He is collaborating with IIT Delhi on making the prototype, which is currently being tested at L V Prasad Eye Institute in Hyderabad. 

"The response during the test has been immense. It comes out as a companion more than a phone to the user. We plan to do more advanced versions of the phone in the future," Dagar adds. 

Dagar started the project three years ago while studying interaction designing at NID. After working with a couple of companies, he gave up his job to concentrate on his technology, formed a team of six people and started his venture, Kriyate Design Solutions. Currently, the venture is being funded by Rolex Awards under its Young Laureates Programme, in which they select five people from across the world every two years and fund their projects. 

How it works 

· The smartphone uses Shape Memory Alloy technology, based on the concept that metals remember their original shapes, i.e. expand and contract to its original shape after use. 

· The phone's 'screen' has a grid of pins, which move up and down as per requirement. The grid has a Braille display, where pins come up to represent a character or letter. 

· This screen will be capable of elevating and depressing the contents to form patterns in Braille. 

· All other elements are like any other smartphone.

Plastic iPhone shell appears in leaked photo




This morning a single photo of what very much appears to be the fabled low-cost plastic iPhone. This device has been said to be appearing later this year in a collection of colors for a price that will allow Apple to not only sustain iPhone sales on the whole, but to expand to markets previously unavailable to them due to the cost of producing the standard iPhone. This case may well also be just that – a case.
What you’re seeing here is the back of what’s very much intended to look like an Apple product, at least. If you have a peek at the camera lens hold and flash bulb hole, you’ll see that there’s also a microphone hole in-between. You’ll see a printed-on ink Apple logo as well as the standard “iPhone” lettered-logo in their regular places, while the left-hand side of the device appears to have slightly updated places for buttons.
This setup shows the new iPhone – if that’s what this is – to be working with volume knobs and a lock switch not unlike that of the iPod touch units of the past. This case also appears to be a bit thicker than the iPhone is currently, leading us to believe that this will either be a high-capacity model using a massive battery or that it is, again, just a case for a future iteration of the standard model.
Another possibility is that this photo has been forged entirely – keep your wits about you and make sure you’re questioning everything that appears with an Apple logo on it in this time before the launch of Apple’s newest product. Head down to the Apple hub we’ve got set up for more information on the possibilities this summer and stay tuned as more colors arrive!
