• SQL Server Reporting Services Tutorials Problem

  Hi, I'm having a problem with the 6th tutorial of the Reporting Services: Using XML Data in a Report. Im using SQL Server Standard Edition on Windows server 2003. In 'Lesson 1: Defining a Data Source and Dataset for XML Data'  ( http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms345338.aspx ), I can't seem to get steps 10 to 15 right.

• Windows Forms Getting the children in right z-order from the MDI-container

  Hello, I have to store the current opened forms of an application (MDI) to view these in correctly the same way on reopening the application the next time. What I have made was to iterate over the forms by using the property 'MDIChildren' of the class 'System.Windows.Forms.MdiClient'. It's working fine with one restriction. It's not the right z-order, the returned forms are sorted by the order in which the children were added to the form. My question is now, can I get the forms sorted by the current z-order or can I get the z value (or something equivalent value) from the form itself. Maybe anyone has a solution or an idea for a ...Show All

• SQL Server Serious Converting Data Problem

  Hi, I am going to map a SQL Server 2005 table to a SQL Server 2000 table. Here are databases specifications: SQL Server 2000: Collation: SQL_Latin1_General_CP1256_CI_AS Table: Party Feilds: Serial int not null FullName varchar(50) SQL Server 2005: Collation: Arabic_CI_AS Table: CMN_tblParty Fields: PartyID int not null FullName nvarchar(50) I used SSIS to map data from 2005 to 2000 but it failed.
