• SQL Server Problem adding Annotations to KPIs

  I'm trying to add an annotation to a Kpi object in AMO. I'm starting with just the simplest thing: kpi.Annotations.Add("AnnoName", "AnnoValue"); The KPI validates, and cube.Update doesn't report any errors.

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Communicating with Outlook like ActiveSync

  My goal is to create a Windows service that can communicate with Outlook to synchronize .pst files. The main difficulty is the dreaded (but necessary) Outlook object model guard.

To do this Outlook would have to be started programatically with no UI and the service would make ca ...Show All
