• SQL Server Spaces in Column names

  Hi all, Is it a bad practice to create column names with spaces. like [Last Modified On] If yes, y It is certainly not a good practice, but not sure I would elevate it to bad exactly. It is a pain to always have to use the [ ] (or " " with quoted identifiers turned on). If you really want to space out names like this I would use underscores between the name like last_modified_on. ...Show All

• Smart Device Development Make CF.NET 1.0 Application with VS 2005...

  Hey guys! I'm looking for a way to make an application (C#) running on WinCE.NET and Pocket PC 2002 with Visual Studio 2005 (Beta 2). I know that Visual Studio 2005 let you program for Pocket PC 2003, SmartPhone 2003 and WinCE 5.0. In our enterprise, we make applications on PocketPC 2002 and WinCE.NET with Embedded Visual Studio 3.0 and 4.0. But it's verry painfull (old MFC etc :P ) so i'd like to show to our boss that it should be interresting to buy VS2005 when it release and use it to make applications on PocketPC 2002 & 2003 , WinCE .NET & 5.0 and SmartPhone 2003. At first sight, i should use VS2003 to make Com ...Show All

• SQL Server Connection closes often

  Hi Team, I get the below error very often. java.sql.SQLException: I/O Error: Connection reset Caused by: java.net.SocketException: Connection reset Followed by a number of "java.sql.SQLException: Invalid state, the Connection object is closed.". Some time Invalid state, the Statement object is closed." I have checked out the network problem and time out of queries. And both does not seems to be an issue for me. Because my application send queries continuously (Checked it with mssql profiler all queries executed in minimum interval) and MSSQL runs in the local machine.

• Visual FoxPro Checking for Additions to a .dbf File

  All, I am wanting to build an interface of sorts for a phone messaging application.  The app writes call entries to a .dbf file that I would like to monitor for additions. Once an addition is made to the table, I would like to insert a new record in to a SQL table and change a status field in .dbf table record to establish that that the new record in SQL was written. My original thought was to use a Linked Server via SQL to the .dbf file.  I did manage to get it working somewhat but not without issues.  First is that the queries are VERY slow, second is that updating the status field in the .dbf file is problematic.  I ...Show All

• SQL Server Triggers for Sql 2005

  I have created a C# trigger that I want to deploy to my Sql database, and have it fire whenever an "Update" event occurs for any of the tables within that database. The difficulty I am running into is that I have to define the "Target", which I do not want to do. The following lines of code are at the top of my trigger: [Microsoft.SqlServer.Server. SqlTrigger (Name= "GenericAuditTrigger" , Target= "Address" , Event= "FOR UPDATE" )] public static void GenericAuditTrigger() If I leave out the "Target", I get an error. If I try to define the Target as Target="Customer, Address" I get an error that the object "Customer ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. HLSL in C# vs. C++

  This is probably a stupid question, but I just want to make sure. I tried out shaders a bit in RenderMonkey when it all looked like ASM. But havn't touched it after HLSL came out. So I want to get up to speed on it now. So I found this book: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0976613212/qid=1127229280/sr=8-1/ref=pd_bbs_1/103-6524508-7375040 v=glance&s=books&n=507846 Now, what I am wondering about is, does it look the same in Managed DX as in Unmanaged DX Is the HLSL it self exactly the same I understand that the way you set up vertex format and so on probably is different. But the actual shader. Does it look the same So ...Show All

• Visual Basic Can I access my form's dataset from my class declaration?

  I finally got my head around how to utilise my own classes, so I'm putting some together for my current project, to sit between the dataset and the main program. The problem I've encountered is when I come to access my dataset (attached to my form) from my class declarations, which are outside the form's class. I thought maybe Form1.Dataset etc, but even though the dataset is public, it won't let me do that. I suppose I might need to attach my dataset directly to my project, rather than just my form but I can't seem to find any information on this, so I guess this is not possible. I realise that the easy way out is to declare ...Show All

• Windows Forms Single Instance application - First instance crashes when second instance launched

  There is one thread discussing this issue already (http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx PostID=175755&SiteID=1) but it ends with an incomplete workaround and doesn't identify a cause or solution. The problem is with using the VB application SingleInstance property. On some machines for some reason this causes crashes in the existing instance when a subsequent instances are launched. See the second part of the follownig article for the SingleInstance scenario being attempted: http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/05/09/NETMatters/ If anyone can shed any light on what is causing this problem it would be very much appreciated. ...Show All

• Visual Basic Convert SVG to image (PNG or else)

  Hi, Is there a way/library to convert a file in SVG format to PNG I know about ImageMagickObject (COM object), but it's SVG conversion feature is still in development (and not doing the job). Inkscape command line does the job well, but the end users would have to first install it on their machine in order for my program to work... Which is not very desirable. Any ideas neilsanner You can use the batik svg toolkit. We successfully use this to perform a server side conversion. You need to install java. We are initiating the process from c# using System.Diagnostics. Process .Start Hope this ...Show All
