• SQL Server Beginner Q: Pocket PC access to SQL Server 2005

  Hi, I am a total beginner to Pocket PC, and a 2-month beginner to SQL Server 2005 and Visual Studio 2005. I made a database Pillbox.mdf, and wrote a Windows Forms program to access it. It's really easy. I just added a Data Source, chose tables and Stored Procedures, and dragged them onto my forms. It automatically created adapter classes and a DataGrid for me. Next, I wanted to do the same thing for Pocket PC. I did the same drag and drop thing, and was happy to see the empty DataGrid in the emulator (design-time) form. From here on, trouble. When I ran it, it said it could not connect. So some questions: 1) Does my connection ...Show All

• SQL Server creating a database

  OK, I have downloaded and installed 2005 express. All I want to do now is create a new database. I do not see where to do that. All that was installed was the SQL Server Configuration Manager and the Surface Area configuration. Am I missing something. I guess I am looking for something similar to Enterprise Manager. Where is it You should be able to install SSMSE on top of your current installation without uninstalling SQL Express. wrt Advanced Services, you should be able to install it to a different instance. Haven't tried though. Cheers. ...Show All

• SQL Server console apps only work if user is SA

  Hi When I try to use a user other then SA my console apps don't work. I can run the Stored Procedures used in console application from Query analyser when logged in with the username/password that I'm attempting to use for the console applications. Under Users in Enterprise Manager Database access is 'permit' for my user. By the way my web application which uses the same user name and password as in console applications is working . I also have dts packages running using dtsexec accessing the database with the same user name and password and they work fine.

• Visual Studio Team System Custom project template error

  We have tried TFS for a while and really like it. We however felt the need to customize the project template. I started a copy of the MSF for Agile Software Development template downloaded from TFS. But everytime I try to upload a custom copy back it results in the same error. So I decided to minimize the change to just the title. Everything else remains as in the downloaded template. When I upload it back to the same TFS server, I again get the very same error. Here's the part of the error log. It seems to indicate something about Sharepoint. Can anyone make sense of it 2006-03-06 13:50:43Z | Module: Engine | Thread: 13 | Running Task &q ...Show All

• .NET Development Problem with XmlSerializer and type not expected exceptions

  I've been working with the XmlSerialization framework for some time now and have managed to work out every problem with unknown types, etc., that I've come across. At the moment I basically pass an array of additional types the serializer should be aware of during initialization, which seems to be working fine. Recently I've been trying to implement a plugin framework for our application and have put everything in place to be able to make those types from the external assembly known to the serializer and I have verified that the serializer does in fact generate all the code neccessary to de/serialize the objects (I verified by looking at the ...Show All

• Visual Basic Display a list of files being copied during the copy process.

  Im using the  My.Computer.FileSystem.CopyFolder object to copy the contents of a folder on a CD-ROM to a folder on the harddrive. Is there anyway to have a label on my form that changes with each file being read. All my code is atm is this: My .Computer.FileSystem.CopyDirectory(UpgradeProgPath.Text, CurProgPath.Text, True ) Just a simple label that says "Copying: filename.ext" IE: Copying update.exe And  have it change for each file in the folder being copied. Is it possible to do this at all Or is there a better way to do it than the My .Computer.FileSystem.CopyDirectory method I use using Synchro in .net 2003 but i'm trying ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista How to make a StateMachine which show the terminal user to see the status of Squence workflow

  In my case, the second step is from a main table to entry a sub table, however, the main table page does not close. The system can keep this page and reentry into sub table by different option. (It means that, my workflow can go back last state). I think the we should use StateWorkflow to achieve the functionality. However, there a problem.

• Visual Studio Team System Default implementation language for distributed system designers

  Is there any option to change the default implementation language for the distributed system designers Related question: will supoport for C++/CLI implementation be included in RTM Hi Carl, Visual Basic is the default if all languages are installed. In you uninstalled VB, Visual C# would become the default language. Unfortunately, C++ support will not be enabled. This was something we wanted to enable, but were not able to in the time available. Another option for creating a C#-based app is to make an application prototype with the correct language and add it to the Toolbox. To do this for an ASP.NET Web Application, you would d ...Show All

• Visual C# Generics & Type Casting

  I'm trying to write a generic method to sort 2-dimensional arrays. I'm converting each row in the array to a delimited string, which I then add to an ArrayList and then use the ArrayList.Sort() method.

This is the code: Type type = typeof(T); sortedArray[rowIndex, columnIndex] = (type) delimitedFields[columnIndex]; I'm getting this error: The type or namespace name 'type' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference ) I can't work out what I'm missing.
