• SQL Server HideMemberIf ADOMD.NEt

  Hello everyone! I have a ragged hierarchy, and I'm using HideMemberIf = ParentName in the last level of the hierarchy (AS 2005) I have a client application written using ADOMD.NET where I put the data into a cellset object. The problem is that I can't differentiate when a level has this property set with adomd.net.

• SQL Server Report Models using Islookup and expandinline

  I am building and deploying models. I have many small description tables, they include two attributes. On attribute is the key (which is a code or type) and the other is a varchar description.  They tables are each optionalone related to the primary table.  I am "denormalizing" the description tables using Islookup.   I change the Role in the primary table to ISLOOKUP, I modify the defaultattributes to remove the code or type key attribute, only the description attribute is now a detailattribute.   I hide the key attribute just in case. In most cases when I do this the de ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions How to Find Child Nodes in a TreeView Control

  This will hopefully be a simple question... I have a treeview control (Treeview1) that gets filled programmatically with different numbers of nodes and child nodes. I am trying to find out how many child nodes one particular node has and what the text of these child nodes are. I know the parent node's name is "Drives" and that each of the child nodes under this node will be a drive letter followed by a colon and backslash (such as C:\ or D:\). Is there a way to find how many of these child nodes exist and what their names are I'm not sure if there's an easy way to use Nodes.Find, but it seems to be leading me nowhere. ...Show All

• SQL Server Newbie needs help with timestamp calculation

  I'm a newbie, so please be gentle I have a table that has a timestamp column that I can reference, e.g., SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE RECORDTIME < {TS '2006-05-01 00:00:00.000' } This type of selection works. What I want to do now is select the rows where the timestamp is less than 30 days prior to the current date instead of hardcoding a timestamp every time. I'm trying to select anything older than 30 days. SELECT * FROM myfile WHERE RECORDTIME < [ current date's timestamp] - 30 days I don't even know where to start so any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Robert ...Show All
